I’m happy to report that things are continuing to go well on the content front. Within the next few weeks, we’re going to have deals in place with a few new distributors. I won’t name names yet – counting chickens and what not – but I can say my job of picking the tracks for these posts is about to get much more difficult. I think I’ll make it though…

1. Landscapes (Tim Paris Remix) – Idioma – Marketing. This is one of the better releases to come out this week. The Shit Robot Remix is fantastic.

2. Riffpunk (Original Mix) – Bukaddor & Fishbeck – My Best Friend / MBF. It’s hard to go wrong with anything on MBF. Bonusmeilen is no exception.

3. Escape Run (Original Mix) – St. Plomb – Brut!. Another solid label, BRUT!, with another solid release. For a rather minimalistic track, it has a lot going on. Parts of Escape reminds me of robots under water. That can’t be a bad thing, right? Well, it could be for the robots I suppose.

4. Can’t get No Sleep (Roland Appel Remix) – Subfossil – Best Works Records. I’ve listened to all the tracks on this album several times. As your attorney, I advise you to check it out.

5. OTD (Original Mix) – Toro 2.0 – Malatoid Records. Malatiod – these guys are really good at putting out things I like to hear, and OTD is one of my favorites. The way the bass plays off of the primary melody is great.

6. Intangable (Original Mix) – XU – Mojodojo Media. As I was listening to this (and having just watched an interview with Richie Hawtin in which he discussed having 4 tables going at once and doing all kinds of crazy layering and looping), it struck me that this track could be great layered under something else. Not that it isn’t good enough by itself – I just think it could work quite well.

7. Mamastroficos No Time (Jason Statham Remix) – Luis Trasto – Fairlads Digital Records. Listen to this one and you will hear disco sneaking its way in. It’s quite possible I’m alone in thinking this, or just wrong, but since disco has been making it’s charge, it seems like the tracks I’m hearing are getting more musical regardless of genre. Is nice. I like.

8. Fuschia (Original Mix) – Royce Haven – Sweet Cherry Music. Good groover with just a little bit of grit on the bass – definitely a song to get the people moving.

9. Roller Coaster (Original Mix) – Chriss Ronson – Ambiosphere. Roller Coaster is nice, deep and smooth.

10. The Persian Eye (Pajic Re-work) – Tim Xavier & Miro Pajic – LTD400. I’m a fan of pretty much anything Tim Xavier does. This collaboration with Miro Pajic is no exception. Quality.
