NS011 – Hostage “Valhalla” Nightshifters – ELECTRO-HOUSE
Hostage has been hard at work recently both in the clubs and in the studio. Over the last couple of years his rave pilgrimage has taken him all over the UK, Europe and the US, bringing a heady mix of wobbly-rave, heavy-electro and house music to the bass-hungry masses. Often considered as Scotland's more prolific producer of late, he has recently received much increased BBC Radio 1 support from Annie Mac, Kissy Sellout, Judge Jules and Andy George, as well as his tracks and remixes being a firm fixture in the sets of DJs like Tommie Sunshine, DJ Craze and Lee Mortimer as well as his productions being played by club DJs all over the world creating the soundtrack to hedonism every weekend!

Playlist support from: Broadinski, Foamo, Brodinski and Toddla T

A Sound A Day Blog "Valhalla" is all about epic viking instrumental mixed with real heavy basslines, in my opinion the best track Hostage ever made."

DCREC048 – Plaupez “HOOD” DeepClass Records – DEEP HOUSE
DeepClass Records drops its 48th release by Plaupez who turned in a beautifully deep offering called Hood. The 3 tracks on this release will surely make you feel like grooving. Contained inside is an incredibly strong remix from Cesar Coronado of Tijuana, Mexico which is highly recommended for big room deepness. Plaupez is a new talent from the Argentina, Buenos Aires underground. He started his careers in the US as DJ/Producer in San Diego, California and you really don't want to miss this.

GrooveSource Cycle 169

Pre-Release Date: 9/8/2009
General Release Date: 9/29/2009


NS010 – Udachi & Jubilee “Paypur” Nightshifters – ELECTRO HOUSE
We are so proud to present our next Ep, this time a collaborative effort between two of New York Cities Hottest DJ/producers Udachi and Jubilee! A beast of an Ep, Paypur features two incredible original tracks by the duo and five stunning remixes, and seeing how the tracks are already being played by AC Slater, Fake Blood, and Tommy Sunshine (to name a few), we think we have one of THE releases of the summer!

An original old-school Florida raver, Jubilee has been tearing up Dj sets across the USA this year on two coast-to-coast tours, and co-hosts the Brooklyn monthly Flashing Lights party with Nick Catchdubs and Dj Ayres. Anyone who has seen her play can attest to her skills and deep understanding of how to launch a party into a frenzy. Similarly, Udachi builds on his old-school rave past as a producer and DJ, and has made a big splash this year with his solo productions and remixes for Audio Bullys, AC Slater, and M83.

And while the two original tracks featured here are both quite simply amazing, the remixes are equally incredible. Nick Catchdubs enlists hot-as-fuck lyricist Daytona to re-construct Paypur into a screwed dirty south style filled with swagger, Venezuela's Cardopusher pushes the bass to the maxx in his mosh-pit-dubstep remix of the same tune, while Thunderheist's Grahmzilla flips the vibe into an expansive techno affair ready for your next sunrise session. Breakbeat hardcore legend Luna-C turns Smoke Rings into a dub-bass filled rave anthem of the next level, and while a rave vibe can also be felt in DreSkull's incredible remix, he pushes up the Funky snares and adds a sinister breakdown that's sure to get shirts flung off the dance floor.

Feedback:
