Back in Business

Sorry for the week long break and the faulty direct downloads. We are back and have decided to make our download links like they used to be and you will not be directed to that shitty 403 forbidden page again. Here is a new edit JFK (If you did not know he is half of MSTRKRFT). MSTRKRFT's full length album entitled Fist of God will be dropping March 17th and it is something we here at Fancy Sounds are very excited for. Enjoy!

Get Drunk

With pretty much every track he does I can hear the improvement in DJ Barletta's production. He is quickly turning in to one of the most consistent and professional producers right now. He has previously worked with Kid Cranberry, and now they've teamed up again for their new track "Get Drunk". It's a fun track with a great beat and some clever rhymes. You get what you'd expect here from these two, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Mad Decent Remix

The Bacardi B-Live project has really grown and continues to grow with new ideas and tracks coming very fast. They've already worked with some great artists, but lately they have been working with Groove Armada to bring the fans (you guys) a full EP as well as several remixes. To find out more about the EP and the whole project, hit up the B-Live Share site, but to get you pumped up check out this bumping Mad Decent remix.


I've also been listening to this Mad Decent remix on repeat. It's been around for a while, but I really just noticed it the other day. It's brilliantly disturbing.

Golden Traxe

Prepare yourselves. This album might be one of the most creative and innovative electronic albums I have heard in a while. I recently got a copy to the whole thing and after one listen I realized that this might be one of my favorite electronic in past couple years if not ever. All of you are obligated to go and get this album the second it comes out. Trust me you will not forget it. Record comes out February 23rd!

Italofuker

A few months back Dan Sena did an unofficial remix of "Haus Of Cards" that was one of my lucky finds that month, and I really enjoyed it. Since then I've looked forward to hearing more from him, but haven't until today. His new track is called "Italofuker (BB Drop 3:16)". The BB Drop part is dedicated to the masked men themselves, The Bloody Beetroots. The track is fun and bouncy with some nice little guitar riffs that go well with the raw electro sound. I'm rally looking forward to hearing more from Dan Sena.

Meddle All-Stars Remix

Chewed up and spit back out by some of the best around. The vocals from Goldielocks are surprisingly fitting for the track, and the bassline and beat from AC Slater and DJ Skeet Skeet are as dirty, deep, and wobbly as ever. You gotta check this one out.

Dirty Disco Youth + Crookers

Sometimes when a highly anticipated track comes out, and isn't quite what it should be you really just have to wait for the remixes. I'm gonna go ahead and say that about Crookers' "What Up Y'all". The original was fine, just nothing special, especially knowing what Crookers are capable of. However Dirty Disco Youth saw this and decided to do something about it. Dirty Disco Youth + Crookers! I didn't even have to listen to know it was great, but I did. Over and over and over. It's as good as expected. Their sounds clashed perfectly as expected, and Dirty Disco Youth melted this track in to a whole new bouncy electro tune that will have you dancing all over the place. Enjoy.

NES Superstar


Makes me want to whip out the 64.

Hell's Angst

"The Angst" is set to be the first single off of DJ Hell's upcoming album Teufelswerk. If you're not already excited about the album, check this out and think again:
Teufelswerk – the German for “Devil’s Work” – is Hell’s masterpiece. Across 16 exquisite tracks divided into two themes, “Night” and “Day”, Hell weaves an intoxicating spell. Celestial vocals cascade around an acoustic guitar figure as a motorik rhythm propels it ever skywards, sharing space, spiritually at least, with Kraftwerk, and Can.

Hold On

D.I.M. remixes have become a slight rarity in the last year or so, which has probably allowed a lot of people (myself included) to forget just how good they are. This latest remix of his started showing up about a month ago, but only in the form of low quality set rips. Very recently however, the Boys Noize Records Blog let a high quality version of the remix see the light of day. As expected when two huge names clash for a remix it is brilliant, but unlike usual D.I.M. style it is not very hard. Won't be called a banger, but still a classic in it's own right. Next up for D.I.M. is a remix of  Depeche Mode done with Boys Noize. Can't wait for that.


At the moment D.I.M. is touring Australia so be sure to go see him if you live over there and get the chance. After that he and Boys Noize head over here to L.A. for the next Hard event. I plan to attend and anyone reading this in the L.A. area should too.
