HYBRID
03 24 2010
The new single from techno pioneers Hybrid have done their first single called “Break My Soul”, it´s already garnering a good amount of attention overseas, but their follow up, “Can You Hear Me Now?” is what we are hoping will bring some cross over success to the group. The release features a 10 minute blissed out remix from Kompakt artist Justus Kohncke, perfect for any summer playlist as well as a Moroder-esque synthed out mix from Cagedbaby.
Hybrid + Cagedbaby.

Hybrid is a British electronic music group based in Swansea, Wales. They are described as being many things, genres that I don’t totally understand. So ‘theatrical techno’ will suffice for now.
They have a new single out soon called ‘Can You Hear Me Now?’ and we’re posting the Cagedbaby mix, full of Moroder-esque synths to get you moving.

Don Diablo + Cagedbaby.

Love him, hate him, ignore him or do a series of piss-take features based on his myspace facts. There is no doubting than Don Diablo (Don Pepijn Schipper) has been an ever-present feature on a wide spectrum of blogs this year and he’s made some music that has surprised more than just our blog this year.
His latest track ‘I’m Not From France’ is another production that will make him difficult to pigeon-hole. It’s absolutely mental, a glitchy, funky tune that is very ‘Oizo’ meets ‘Bag Raiders’ and is highly recommended listening.
It’s taken from an EP of the very same name which includes remixes from Linus Loves, Louis La Roche and Hugo van Dyck as well as the really quite cool new original ‘Rave Rave Rave’ (seriously good), which is included as a bonus track.

Oh.. I think we forgot something!!!
If you heard Aeroplane’s mix chart for November (if not, do it) you will have already fallen in love with Cagedbaby’s gorgeous piece of remix action. It really is deserving of the superlative ‘epic’ and is easily one of the best remixes you’ll hear all year.

Trouble Vision Turns 1
10 03 2009
TV's 1st birthday is here- on 16 October - with a brilliant line-up of underground UK acts.
Here we have two blog-cleared Hot City tunes. The first is a brand-spanking new remix, that only gets better with each play. Hot City cut the originals vocals down to glitchy snippets, leaving just the chorus, a higher tempo and that satisfying whiplashed beat:
Funktuary - Wip Electric (Hot City Remix) [pelski highly recommends]
Skippy drums, piano house samples and a slowed down 4/4 structure come together to make a strangely original production on 'Setting Me Free'. For the full quality copy, and the equally excellent flipside of 'No More', buy the whole release here.
One underrated Hot City release from earlier this year was the low-key Hot City Bass / Sweat EP, melding UK funky sounds with old school piano stabs. Buy it from beatport here.
Boy 8-bit hardly needs an introduction on this blog. Here Greenmoney brings some of that funky house percussion to the original's winding melody:
Another highlight is Idiotproof - the formidable collaboration of Jamie Anderson and Deepgroove, or so far as I'm aware. I read an interview in DJ mag recently, in which they proclaimed to be a couple of artists who wished to remain anonymous (sighh...), behind their horse masks (another sigh...). No matter, their big main-room tech-house productions speak for themselves. Check out their superb remix of Cevin Fisher's 'The Freaks Come Out'. Below is their Cagedbaby rejigg, filled with slow builds and techy bass surges:

Head to Room 2 to hear one of Solo's tastemaking mixes. And For your dubstep fix, hit up Plastician or Boog-A-Loo Crew in the main room.
Boog-A-Loo Crew are on the up with a number of brilliant productions - and you can buy each one for a mere 70p here. Or all you northern monkeys can catch Boog-A-Loo crew later in the month at my electro/techno/house night in York, idioteque, supported by our buddy Park Ranger. In the meantime check out a Trouble Vision promo mix from the Crew themselves (tracklist in comments):
