Dante GBRL - June 2013 Promo Mixtape

I know it's a type of shameless self-promotion if I post my own mixes on consecutive days, but since it's the beginning of June I have to.

I've recently put together my newest monthly promo mixtape which focuses on the sound that I'm really into these days. A blend of house, nudisco and indie - if I have to describe it with genres. I've started out with the newest Amtrac remix of the fantastic Two Door Cinema Club single, and included brand new stuff from Ben Pearce, Francesco Rossi, The Shapeshifters, James Dexter and many others. I really hope you will enjoy this set and send me some feedback, I would really appreciate it.

Anyway, enough with the talk, let's get down to the sounds!

PREVIEW: Greg Pidcock - Blame Game

Awesome new preview of the newest release on Hot Creations. Let's kick off the summer!

Always surprising us with their A&R skills, Hot Creations are back with another outstanding release, this time from rising star Greg Pidcock, who is soon to release his debut album on the label. "Blame Game" is fresh and beautifully crafted with deep vocals and warm melodies, building effortlessly into sonic bliss. On remix duty, Minus favourite Hobo picks up the pace to deliver two on point reworks aimed steadily at the dance floor.

A formally trained artist, Greg received his BFA in Intermedia & Cyberarts when he was 20. Introduced to Jamie Jones and Lee Foss in 2012, Pidcock was quickly signed to the label and has spent the last year working on his debut album. Studying in Montreal he soon became the Creative Director at Montreal’s legendary Cherry nightclub, DJing alongside legends. This led to the formation of Bad Pony Records with Tone Depth of Bedrock fame - a process, which firmly cemented his goals of creating music and art. Currently the resident DJ at the renowned Velvet Nightclub in Montreal and working with Turkish composer, Mercan Dede, as a sound engineer, Greg Pidcock is about to explode onto the international scene with his blend of passionate, sexy, heavy house.

Member of the Minus family since 2007, Joel Boychuk aka Hobo very much holds his own identity. With an early Detroit influence he has explored his own form of techno expressionism: sometimes dark and abstract, others more sample heavy and groove based. With a lot of time spent on his recently released album ‘Iron Triangle’, Hobo now plans to focus on DJing after being an almost exclusively live performer for 6 years. Both original and remix have been featured heavily in Jamie’s recent sets..

GREG PIDCOCK - BLAME GAME

Tracklist:
01. Blame Game
02. Blame Game (Hobo's shamed remix)
03. Blame Game (Hobo's named remix)

Release date: 17 June 2013

Party Planner: D-Nox & Beckers /w NVC DJs @ Akvárium (06-07, Friday)

It's been a while since I posted some party planners here on the blog, but I definately think that it should be an essential part of Budapest Bonkers, so let's continue this great tradition.

The German duo of D-Nox & Beckers has been a crucial part of the house and techno scene (and earlier, progressive as well) during the last decade. They had numerous superb productions and remixes on huge labels like Tronic, Sprout Music, Suara, Kittball, Trapez, Baroque Records - just to name a "few". If you're wondering about what you'll hear tomorrow evening at Akvárium (due to the unfortunate flooding situation in Budapest, the organisers had to move the party from A38), here's a little teaser for your ears from D-Nox:





And for your eyes from NVC:

Reelow - June 2013 Promo Mix

I've been following the work of Reelow for quite a while now and first of all, I have to state that he is one of the most underrated artists in the Hungarian house business. While having a huge amount of international releases over the last few years, I definately think that he deserves much more appreciation.

Reelow's sound features a unique blend of house and techish sounds - as you listen to his recent mix, you'll hear it - as the mix itself is pumping but also listenable. Another unique feature that it contains own productions and remixes as well which is quite rare nowadays. I would like to recommend his brand new Cocporn EP (great title choice) on Hustler Muzik.

Check it out and throw some like to Reelow on Facebook too!

The Dante GBRL Podcast 006

Hey everyone! I'm really happy to present you the 6th episode of my very own podcast, made for the Budapest Bonkers blog. As some of you may know, this Podcast focuses mainly on deeper sounds, such as sounds that you would like to hear in a midweek evening while loungin' after a hard day's work. Of course some stompin' beats might sneak inside, but I leave the heavier tracks for the Your Guide to the Weekend series - which I will also resurrect really soon!

This week's episode features some tracks from the latest installment, which I cannot resist to include again such as "No Eyes" from Claptone and Jaw or that absolutely fantastic summer track by Jorge Takei. Also some new ones can be found inside, just to make a honourable mention: Ben Pearce's remix of "Cool" by Le Youth - astonishing remix, I fell in love with it in the first second I heard it.

I'm still really eager to hear your comments and tips, so please listen, like, download, share and feel free to send me your opinions as well!

FREE DOWNLOAD: Useless Wooden Toys - Everybody

I've just received this beauty from the Italian nu disco powerhouse La Valigetta: a free tune from a big returner! Check out the newest production of Useless Wooden Toys!

After having collaborated with several Italian artits and musicians like Amari, S.W.I.M, Spiller, Uochi Toki, Ghemon, Entics, Dargen D'Amico or Sano Business, Useless Wooden Toys returns with their original disco soul made by a fun blend of italo disco, electro funk and house.

Their latest track, “Everybody”, is far a repetitive and catchy anthem. Useless Wooden Toys have always been fond of looping, but they also mix it up enough that the new song results engaging from beginning to end. Simply here, you get what you'd expect from a real disco sound.

“Everybody” is an enthralling progression of energic tension where the loop becomes more and more magnetic turning around the odd sample, that always represents the foundation of the Useless Wooden Toys 's music production.

Cajoline & Holic - Timeless Dream

I'm sure most of you remember the magical set of SpaceWalker Recordings head honcho Holic from a few weeks ago. Now he's returning, this time alongside with French producers Cajoline and with a massive collaboration titled "Timeless Dream".

This time the title perfectly fits the content: the guys took Donna Lewis' track from the 90s and transformed into a summer dream. Even the introduction takes away the listener, but just wait for the bassline to be introduced and it's pure summer bliss from thereon. In case you're wondering if this could get any better, it could: the track will be available for FREE DOWNLOAD in the next few days. So be sure to check back and grab this great track.

Deaf DJs - June 2013 Mix

The Budapest house and nudisco duo, consisting of Lafinski and Zunt or better known as Deaf DJs are back in action! Following a quite nice May (headlined by a superb gig at the Városliget Lake with Audioporncentral's Simon Iddol), their promo mix for June has been already released.

Considering the current amount of summer it's not a coincidence that the guys took a fairly darker direction with their selection, less sunshine and disco and more banging rhythms and techish sounds. The "almost obligatory" labels such as Noir Music and Get Physical Music are featured in the mix of course as well as the beautiful new single of Wankelmut "My Head is Jungle".

You do not want to miss this one as the mix also celebrates the launch of the weekly Deaf DJs parties at the Városliget Lake (stay tuned for more about the events!). I've been there and I'm pretty sure you don't want to miss that one, it's pure summer bliss.

If you liked the mix, you could also show some love to the guys RIGHT HERE!

PREVIEW: Filthy Rich - Room 808 EP

Funkpony Records has been one of the biggest up-and-coming shots in the world of nasty house music in 2013. The label is skyrocketing over the past few months and already reached its 6th release by June. Heston has been doing a great work with his label as he lured Toolroom and Great Stuff Recordings (among many others) artist Filthy Rich to the imprint for the newest installment. Now let's check what we have here.

The release follows the recipe of Funkpony's success, with "Turn It Around" complementing the dancefloor orientated title track "The Room 808". Remix treatments are coming from Latvia's Electricano, NastyFunk Records label boss Hendriks and of course, Funkpony label boss Heston.

Pete Tong - The Essential Selection (2013-05-31)

I hope everyone had a really nice weekend but unfortunately it's Monday so let's get back to business. However, there are still some pretty nice options to keep up that weekend mood and as you might noticed during the last times there are some radio shows that keep popping up regularly on BPB. Well, the legendary Pete Tong's Essential Selection will be one of them, as Pete keeps playing out some of the best new tracks from the world of house and EDM while also having some really intriguing interviews and guestmixes.

Last Friday's edition was not an exception either because loads of fantastic new tracks had been premiered such as Axwell & Sebastian Ingrosso's "Roar", the new Solomun remix of the Foals' "Last Night", new Davina, new Kaiserdisco and my biggest favorite: Solomun's "Yesnomaybe".
