A little WestCoast lovin

Hello all!

Today's post is a unique good one! My chickie Rena, who is also my raver partner in crime has graciously passed on this AWESOME new techno mix that her sister's brother-in-law, created.

This mix has a very island/vaca(esq.) type vibes-good vibes all around! Starting out mellow, the beat really begins to pick up round the 15:00. What I enjoy about this techno-trancy mix is the vibes it gives off, very different from what you normally here, yet unique. Keeping that suddle drum beat in the background-whole mix is about 50 min long.

Below is the link to JR Xol's SoundCloud to give you a little more info on the guru behind the music--including the downloadable mix and other music by him--Enjoy!

Tits!

San Fransisco's Claude Von Stroke has been one of my favorite House/Techno artists since I was introduced to EDM in 2007. His tunes are a masterful blend of dark drums, atmospheric vocal samples, and some of the techiest tick-tocks around. If you haven't heard of this Tech-House legend and his 2006 international boomer "Whose Afraid of Detroit?" just push play below...



Von Stroke, named Barclay Crenshaw, released his second full length LP, "Bird Brain", in October 2009 under his own Dirty Bird label. It is a must have for lovers of minimal house and techno. For everyone else... no worry. There are goodies. The hype machine and I found a great stash over at Lost In Sound where you can pick up "Vocal Chords" from the new LP, "Whose Afraid of Detroit", some great remixes, and 2 full mixes that will show you this man's true genius. Also... head over to Lost In Sound.org if you ever feel the need to check out a real blog. ;) They're really keepin it fresh over there with information about events, musical styles, and culture related to all things electronic. Below are my favorite tunes from Von Stroke's new album... Do what's good for you and listen closely. Especially the last one... "Big and Round" :)

You'll enjoy
