The XX, Wu-Tang Clan, KO – Gravel Pit Intro (Dublic Re-edit)

Ok, this one will get a lot of appreciation and a disapproval by most of my dj colleagues for sharing another one of their “secret weapons”. AND this is the spot where i tell you guys, the only secrets worth keeping to yourself (at least for  while) are your very own tunes/remixes, aka original content. If you happen to have none, do not get involved with keeping tunes, that are worth sharing, from people. It’s always your very own task to stay ‘fresh” and actually on top of the game. A little effort goes a ling way. That whole banking system / secrecy mentality BS has not place in the informational world we live and consume music in.

So a much appreciated Wu-Tang | Trap Rework that will find its way into your sets :)

Another great banger from Hudmo. By now the entire world got used to his flawless productions pouring out continously and somehow he manages to raise the bar with every release. While everybody is reworking the easy acapellas available (“If” & “Rock with You” and so on) Hudmo took on the Pleasure Principle, not an instant crowd cheering song, since that tune is from the mid 80ies and that generation is not hitting the clubs anymore, aaaaand still… best Janet remix out there. Download away!

Janelle Monae – Tightrope (Chrome Remix)

Had to re re do that 2011 yum yum version and guess that’s what train rides are for. Sounds alright and went down very well on a few YUM YUM test sites :) That Drum & Bass flavour is a great contrast to everything being 70 bpm all the time these days. Always liked that double time swing especially when paired with a yum yum tune of that calibre – pure prime timer. Makes no sense playing it anytime else in your sets.
