Whola' Lotta' Xmas Giveaways

After a few days' time, the blog is back on track - and as you might realized, it's all about Christmas everywhere. The electronic dance music scene is no exception, everyone's pumping out free tracks, bootlegs, best of the year mixes and other stuff. I compiled some of my favorites for you, check these out!

Dada Life is one of the biggest stories of the year, massive productions, loads of gigs on the biggest festival, a new label and fun all the way. The guys poured all these moments into a 60-minute set to let you know, what were their favorites this year.

The Datamix series by the Designer Drugs guys has been creating a blog havoc for a long time now. Well, let's double that right now, since they released the 16th edition of the series, this time a 2-hour episode.

And now, here are some free tracks. I recommended earlier Jay Robinson's latest EP on the blog. He had a nice remix for Krafty Kuts aswell, becoming a resident on Krafty's Instant Vibes imprint. After a long and busy year, Jay doesn't stop. Here's Coldplay's mega hit "Paradise" in a Jay Robinson interpretation.

19-year old Audiobot also had a massive year, gaining support from LMFAO, Laidback Luke, Chuckie, Kissy Sell Out and many others from the electro/house scene. Now he's up with a new remix for Calvin Harris' "Feel So Close". While you're prepairing for those NYE raves, don't forget this track either!

A couple of live sets

Well, you all know that this time of the year could be quite hard. Either it's about the last days of school, doing your finals, or preparing for the holiday festivities. Therefore the BPB blog take a rest for the next 2 days, while I'm taking part in one of my finals - and before I can prepare for the kickoff the BPB holiday season with lots of new stuff. I don't want to leave you though without great music, so I made a compilation of DJ sets, recorded live during the last month with some of the biggest names in the business. Either if you love house, electro or slower techhouse/minimal beats, this post will be essential for you!

First up, on the house front, I've got 2 red hot names doing some massive sets. Dirty Dutch label boss Chuckie played a banging 1-hour set at the Vicious Music Awards ceremony in Madrid on Thursday. After the recent SHM set I posted yesterday, this time here's another longer live from 1/3 of the Swedish House Mafia and Refune head honcho, Sebastian Ingrosso, recorded live in Washington DC at Glow.

Also some tasty electro sets here. Dada Life recently started their own label, So Much Dada, while this year they clearly ensured their superstars status among the electro DJs. I also got lives from festivals, one from Calvin Harris played a 1-hour set last month at the Belgian Groove City Festival, while the other is Laidback Luke and his usual awesomeness from the Brazilian edition of Ultra Music Festival, don't miss these either!

One more goodie for you. From the beginning of 2012, I also want to concentrate on the techhouse/minimal scene aswell on Budapest Bonkers (which was an original goal at the start of the blog, but somehow couldn't spare enough time earlier). Therefore here's an exceptional live set from one of the biggest names around, Seth Troxler who's recently voted as #2 DJ in the world (no, not by Mixmag, by Resident Advisor)

Hope You'll enjoy it!

Enjoy these sets, take care and see you in a few days' time! 

Can you stay up for the weekend? #9

It's time for the weekend again - actually the last one for this year without any festivities. This also means that it's time again for the "Can You stay up for the weekend" mixcompilation of Budapest Bonkers, including radio shows and livesets - this time it's gonna be really big, so let's do this!

First up, it's a huge liveset by the Swedish House Mafia, recorded yesterday (!!!) at Madison Square Garden, New York. The tracklist is full of exclusive goodies, mashups, bootlegs - including the new Axtone release by Arty, Sadko & Matisse, and Tommy Trash's massive remix of John Dahlbäck's newest track "One Last Ride". Enjoy this one!
SHM - Madison Square Garden - 16.12.2011 by madisonsquaregarden

I've got another exclusive liveset for those who like the laidback beats. This one is a nearly 3-hour (!!!) set by Sebastien Léger, recorded live at Watergate, Berlin. Unfortunately there's no tracklisting, but I bet he played lots of his tracks and some upcoming releases of his great label, Mistakes Music. The set is downloadable aswell, so what you're waiting for?
Sébastien Léger at Watergate - Berlin - 02/12/2011 by sebastienleger


And now on to the radio show. Pete Tong's Essential Selection is becoming a regular feature here with so many new tracks to listen. This time Pete did it again, playing the new Tommy Trash remix of the SHM vs. Knife Party single "Antidote", new Alex Metric remix of Miike Snow, 15 minutes of Fame with Madeon, new Nicky Romero tracks, plus for some bragging rights, one of his essential contenders was the Style of Eye remix of Tony Senghore's "Go Tigers". I recommended that for you weeks ago, remember?

Kissy Sell Out's Kissy Klub is also one of BPB's favorite radio shows, and as the end of the year reach us soon, Kissy did a special show aswell, including his favorites bits from 2011. Guest Mixes from the mighty Mike Skinner off of The Streets, Holland's Laidback Luke, Montreal's Botnek and sticking with Canada, Toronto's finest Zeds Dead.

Have a nice weekend!

Watch out for these!

It's been a while since I posted previews so it's time again to take a look at what we gonna listen in a few weeks'.

Laidback Luke's label Mixmash Records keep getting bigger and bigger, and here's another awesome release, this time by upcoming Serbian talent Mata called "Dutchness". With his shiny remix of Laidback Luke's and Sander van Doorn's "Who's Wearing The Cap" in the pocket, he now offers you a smashing electro follow-up.
The first remix of this track is delivered by Moska, who met Mata on the Laidback Luke Forum. His work is rich with a big-room sound, crazy Dutch leads and some nice horn melodies.
The second remix comes from Chile where young and talented Jordan Ferrer created the whole different version of "Dutchness", spicing it with his unique chords and big pitched synths in the break. The release is due to the 19th of December.

Going through favorite labels we must stop at Wearhouse Music. 18th December marks the release date of Decibel's newest single called "Teeth", a perky bass track along with a heavyweight remix from label head honcho Lee Mortimer and a funky one from Coin Operated Boy. Enjoy!
WEAR047 Decibel - Teeth by Lee Mortimer

Also Steve Angello's Size Records won't rest at the end of the year. This time it's Tim Mason's 'Anima' that will be controlling dance floor's across the globe. Keeping in true Tim Mason fashion it features a huge riff, introduced as lo-fi in the breakdown and building into a huge release of synth madness. Rising snare rolls and FX take the track to new levels before taking you back into the emotional chords that Tim Mason executes so well. Release date: 30th December.

Of course I won't leave you without some dubstep. Culprate's new 5 Star EP is on its way aswell, it will hit the stores on Christmas Day. These 4 tracks cover various moods of dubstep from dancefloor destroying till chilling. You gonna love this, I bet!
