all you can eat.

just recently i have featured the banging 'gluttony' by hostage. today i am proud to present a true discodust allstars release: a three-tracker ep with the still killing original and excellent mindbending reworks by two of my favorite artists these days: felix cartal and the bloody beetroots. just when i thought it couldn't get much harder, they came to prove me wrong - i love you guys. and everyone else, play this out and tear the fucking club down:

on the more laidback side of things, k.s aka marcel pagnol from france conducted a perfect soundtrack to the hot early summer days over here. make sure to check out his hip hop project dizzylez and don't miss this funky fresh french house tune spiced up with kryptonite:

last regular track for this post is an edit of 'signatune' by dj mehdi from ed banger records, done by the legendary spiller, who scored one of the greatest worldwide modern disco hits of all time, 'groovejet'. if you still can't get enough of 'signatune', this will definitely help:

as a bonus, here are the dj sets from kazey, klever and kid fresh from the latest pink pony party. shame on you if you haven't been there. this is what you've missed:

wild beasts.

boy 8-bit from the united kingdom has already remixed the likes of arthur baker, armand van helden and acid jacks. he combines todays electro with retro video game elements for his very own trademark sound and also plays bass and guitar in everyone's favorite new uk band the black ghosts. after i came across his unique mix sets over on his podomatic site that include a lot of video game and obscure (horror) movie references, i badly wanted a track from boy 8-bit and finally it is here - already played on heavy rotation by kissy sellout, drop the lime and the loose cannons, unleash 'wild beasts' on the dancefloor, roar!

this probably turns discodust into the official the bloody beetroots fanclub blog but what can i do, these crazy italians won't stop dropping the heavy bangers. since i have posted 'ezekiel eats red hoodie', they've finished three new remixes and this is the place where you can get all of them. remixing the whip and their own bob rifo, these tracks should finally make clear they are playing in the very first league. hoping to meet you this summer, bob and tea!

the whip - muzzle no. 1 (the bloody beetroots remix)
the whip - trash (the bloody beetroots remix)
bob rifo - kinky malinki (the bloody beetroots remix)

another discodust regular, one of my favorite germans, malente, hooked me up with a special edit of his latest single 'thismanrox'. as you have probably already read over at discobelle, he wants you to remix the track and you can grab the three sample packs here, here and there. the official release will be out on luscious sounds in may.

manrox - thismanrox (web edit)

for even more malente greatness, also check out two of his most recent remixes for bleach eatin pimps and shout out out out out, get ready for pumping electro house all the way:

bleach eatin pimps - c.u. next tuesday (malente remix)
shout out out out out - self loathing rules (malente remix)

on a sidenote: i am looking for some support, as in co-editors, a css/xhtml wizard and a new place to host discodust. if you want to be a part of this and help me out, send me a mail to discodust69@googlemail.com or contact me on discodust myspace. read more!

drugs.

soon-to-be superstar felix cartal is back. the true heads know his discodust exclusive 'moss vs. tree' got thousands of downloads and massive dj-set love, first and foremost on the latest guns'n'bombs mixtape. but as the industry is obviously still sleeping even though he had a dedicated post on fluokids, here is another banger for the final wake up call. 'drugs' is doing just what you would expect: taking you way up high before smashing you back down again. if this does not get the crowd moving, then i don't know:

felix cartal - drugs (EXCLUSIVE)

also known to regular discodust readers is italy's finest unsigned hype: the bloody beetroots and i don't know what to add what hasn't already been said back then except that they are also still waiting for a well-deserved deal. 'ezekiel eats red hoodie' is another first-class ode to destruction that was only built to take the whole club apart:

the bloody beetroots - ezekiel eats red hoodie

nesakyk mamai! are a lithuanian dj team consisting of manfredas, kym wild and miss america. as you can almost tell by these names, their only mission is bringing riot to the dancefloor: their sets usually include getting naked, screaming and fighting with the security. their edit of 'i used to dance with my daddy' by datarock most likely won't help to de-escalate the situation, as it is one of the hottest slow jams i have heard in a long time and reminds me of back in the days when dfa was the freshest thing out there. starting out as percussion-laden robot (kraut) rock, it constantly builds up until it turns into a devastating acid whirlwind. get them some more international bookings, i want to freak out to this:

datarock - i used to dance with my daddy

sega rockstars.

killdahype are from paris, france and combine funked up disco, sega rock and brute force to create their very own definition of new french touch. david et nicolas have started their project only seven months ago and already have about ten tracks ready, fixed countless gigs and will drop an ep on a german underground label before the summer.

while 'g-boys' starts out with blazing vintage synths that remind me of kavinsky, then adds a flangered guitar riff and ends up in a disco funk jam session, 'révolution' is a straight forward banger that could be the climax of a boys noize dj set, guaranteed to make the crowd freak out and turn the whole place upside down:

killdahype - g-boys
killdahype - révolution (EXCLUSIVE)

as a bonus, here is a killdahype rework of 'around the world' by daft punk which adds a lot more drive and yet still manages to maintain the sweetness of the original:

daft punk - around the world (killdahype remix)

and if you have got the feeling that you have heard any of those tracks elsewhere, you might be right but discodust is the first to post all of them in actual high quality. i have to get back to felix cartal and his german homework now, but stay tuned for more very soon and don't hesitate to send us your music!

night crusader.

knightlife comes from melbourne, australia. he just finished film school and i can hardly believe that he has only been making music for just under a year now. only very few people manage to get everything right after such a short time and the majority of producers out there will probably never be as much on point as him. he arranges kicking drums and rapturous synths and aims straight for the dancefloor. influences on his music range from crydamoure and ed banger records to giorgio moroder and elo.

his intention is to make tracks that get people moving. i think 'ambobop' makes people want to party so hard that they will go home in an ambulance. i've had the track playing on repeat everywhere i go for a few weeks now and i still can not get enough of it. seriously, i have not been this excited about any energetic tracks ever since i have first heard justice or mstrkrft like over a year ago. this will definitely fit well in your set right after vanshe tech or riot in belgium. i can't wait to hear it played out loud in the clubs and am considering to refuse going out until everyone has caught up on this:

knightlife - ambobop

'all systems' is an uplifting melodic club track sounding like mylo or linus loves are getting some help on the chords from thomas bangalter and proves that distortion is by far not the only trick knightlife has up his sleeve. he finished it up in amazingly short time as an exclusive track for discodust:

knightlife - all systems (EXCLUSIVE)

and one more thing that could probably end up meaning a lot of work for me: if knightlife does not get signed soon, i promise i will start my own label.

watch out for a twelve-inch release on a well-known label soon.

take no prisoners.

alan parley also known as hostage from edinburgh, scotland is producing house music for ten years now. besides getting massive radio airplay, his track "let's pretend" was featured on a mixmag compilation alongside tracks by sebastian, surkin and erick morillo. check 24 hours for more material, including a remix by the scar and watch out for countless hostage gigs soon.

'gluttony' is a supersaturated club banger driven by whirling synths and roaring basses that could originate from a gabber track, interrupted by an uplifting breakdown that will remind you of your favorite uk hardcore tape just before it rips your dreams of a better world to pieces and knocks you all the way down again. play it loud!

enjoy another first on discodust:

electro is dead.

the other day i was checking out bigstereo and came across their gameboy/gamegirl feature. the track really got me excited and so i went straight to miami horror who produced the track. the 'electro is dead' quote on his profile made me shake my head - until the myspace player got going. imagine daft punk rolling with prince. get ready for heavy banging drums and ecstatic chords covering thick layers of synth, making way for mindbending guitar solos and tons of funk, in short: miami horror is sharper than axel foley's new haircut. and even though the new justice single leaked on the very same day, i couldn't stop listening to "don't be on with her". that night, electro was dead.

when asked about who has influenced his music he named prince, early madonna, joy division, italo disco, giorgio moroder and the devil. a full-length with all new tracks is currently in the works, get ready for "both a pop 80's disco adventure and musical journey through a range of lost epic 80's styles, with some songs feeling reminiscent of movie soundtracks". i can't wait, this 20-year old australian is the freshest thing i've heard in ages.

i am more than excited to have these tunes as exclusive firsts on discodust:

miami horror - don't be on with her
stardust - music sounds better with you (miami horror remix)
