The Big Leagues 1

First off, I don't love dubstep. Sorry. There is no dubstep in this post. However, I love house. So, in this post you will find a menagerie of absolutely ILL house. A lot of these tracks are MASSIVE recent releases, I've been sitting on these for weeks, but here they are... Progressive, tech, and electro house, with some other stuff. ALL are must downloads, dopeness ensues. But actually. Get all of them... To be continued in The Big Leagues 2.

Don't Ditch- Tiesto & Marcel Woods

Angel On My Shoulder Reaver 76 (Kaskade Mash Up)- Kaskade, Tiesto, Hardwell, EDX & Marco V.

You asked for it...

Recently, in a poll on the blog, when asked which genre of electronic music viewers wanted to see more of, over 50% chose techno's bassiest subgenre, Dubstep. Here is some new shit to set your bass on fire and make your eardrums wobble.

Get Down Lay Down - Ajapai

Cinema (Skrillex Remix) - Benny Benassi

Sierra Leone - Mt Eden Dubstep

Eleanor Rigby (4Centers Remix) - The Beatles

A Single Moment of Sincerity (Bare Remix) - Asking Alexandria (really fucking intense, hardcore dubstep)

-Holden

Mashups...Done Right

A HUGE genre of new music right now is the Mashup. For those of you who don't know, or for some reason can't guess what it is, a mashup is one single track, consisting of two or more individual tracks mixing the vocals, instrumentals, harmonies, and melodies. Personally, I am not a huge fan of mashups. I respect their ingenuity, though. No doubt a well put together mashup is almost mathematical in its flow, but I just don't love them. This could have to do with the fact that almost every major mashup group uses pop music tracks, and most pop songs make me fucking crazy.

BUT, if you haven't gathered by now, this is an electro music blog. So what type of mashup belongs in my post? Electro Mashups.

They can be considered glorified set mixing, but the really well done tracks are absolutely nuts.

Without further adieu, here are a couple electro mashups

Bonkers Streisand (Bootleg) - Duck Sauce vs Dizzee Rascal

San Fransisco Dreaming (Musical Racket Mix) - Global Deejays Vs Benny Benassi

Blau Romance (Lady Gaga vs. Laidback Luke & Lee Mortimer + LA Riots) - Laidback Luke & Lee Mortimer

BLOODY BEETROOTS VS. MSTRKRFT - The Bloody Beetroots vs. MSTRKRFT (SETLIST MASHUP)

Restless Bonking (Horse Got Restless Edit) - Armand Van Helden vs Fake Blood

Extra Credit: If you DO like pop mashups, as I know many people do, make sure to check out the Best of Bootie compilations, created by underground mashup superstars, A + D. They take the best bootleg mashups found around the internet and create a yearly mix.

With Love,
