A Little of This, a Little of That



Here at NOTA, we tend to bring you fresh shit most people haven't heard, that's kind of the point. In this post we are going on a little bit of a variant, providing big (sometimes mainstream) names, with a little remixing... So that means your friend that likes rap won't NECESSARILY give you looks in the car, your pop-loving girlfriend might tolerate sharing your iPod, your indie-rock friend will still feel think you're "indie," and that guy who loves Cudi can still chill. Some old, some new.  Moving on...


Pass Out (Afrojack Remix)- Tinie Tempah


C'mon (Catch Em By Surprise)- Tiesto vs. Diplo feat. Busta Rhymes


Live It Up- Deepside Deejays


S&M (Sidney Samson Club Mix)- Rihanna


Bittersweet Kickin (David Puentez Bootleg Mix)- Matt Myer vs. The Verve


Comme Des Enfants (Le Matos Andy Carmichael Remix)- Coeur De Pirate


The Night is Young (Edwin van Cleef Remix)- Nelly Furtado


Dancing With The DJ (Jesse Marco Remix)- The Knocks
nd of course.. that Britney dub
Hold It Against Me- Britney Spears
now these are a little all over, but have a taste.

Disgusting... Nasty... Straight Dirty Dutch




As you all probably know electronic music has more sub genres then almost any other kind of music (except metal maybe).  And we love to talk about every single one of them on this blog...EXCEPT TRANCE.  The big genre for me right now is Dirty Dutch House.  Dirty Dutch is characterized by huge and pitchy synth, almost no actual bassline, a shit ton of kick drum, and massive builds and drops.  As you could have guess it originated from dutch producers, such as Chuckie, Afrojack, and Sidney Samson.  But even Dirty Dutch has its own individual sub-sections.  Between dirty dutch producers, there are always similarities in their music, but the differences are what make it amazing.  For instance, Afrojack has begun to merge mainstream sounds with classic dirty dutch synths, while Oliver Twizt has almost no mainstream sound and isn't about the drops, but creates disgustingly intricate synth sounds.  


Enough talk, here's some dirty dutch to make you scream
don't. hesitate.
