Mix Monday 25

Nadastrom is the combination of DJ Dave Nada and sound engineer Matt Nordstrom. These guys are clever. Not over doing themselves these guys are known for making fewer releases both in regard to remixes and originals. The pay off, everything they make is of pretty fucking high quality. Instead of throwing out 3 or 4 remixes a month of the most over worked tunes they choose rarer more unknown tracks to work on and then secretly drop them. It's not easy finding much of their work.

For this week's mix I've decided to present you with a compilation the boys put together at the end of last year for streetwear label Mishka. As with their production it doesn't fit into any one category and takes the listener on quite a journey starting off with some minimal tech, tribal house and then moving slowly towards the heavy side of genres like electro and bmore. I think it's been put together marvellously.

Mid-Week Movement

Its winter, and this image is inviting.

So nadastrom, they are sick, but they are stealth. I mean they only let you crawl, rather than walk. I would love to know how many edits, bootlegs and remixes they have. Recently on stayingsick we posted a preview of the Bart B more-make some noise(nadastrom edit) which laidback luke has been hammering. They have had segments on radio 1 for the past two weeks where they have dropped some cheeky edits. Below is their official mix of Hey. Did not see it coming, when you listen you will know what I mean. It is fitting a genre that is growing among household djs.

Duck sauce is a translucent sweet and sour orange condiment used in some Chinese-American restaurants. But not if A-trak and Armand Van helden can help it. These two have come together to create this absolute weapon. They made a 4 track EP but decided to release two tracks early because of the outcry for the tracks. So many world class djs have been supporting this. Busy P loves it. Parklife 2009, this is where you will hear this track, expect it from Busy P, atrak, and possibly erol. I think its the next kilometer, for me anyway.

Finally something local. Tom Piper is a class act and his production should be more noticed. This is his take on riverside.

Whats Hot!

Since summer is well underway in the northern hemisphere, music production goes up 10fold. Everyone wants to have their music ready for the summer as summer in Europe is party time. So I have been noticing a few tracks getting about and thought I would give you a preview.



First one is a relatively new one by Larry Tee that was released at the start of May, remixed by afrojack. Its got the vocal and a de-constructed feel about it. Being played by LBL and the likes.
