Madrid’s Chus + Ceballos ride the Iberian sound on Back On Tracks Electro House Music
Release Date: April 20, 2010
2XCD features tracks and remixes from Danny Tenaglia, Steve Lawler, Radio Slave, Umek + much more
Let’s face it, with few exceptions the weather totally sucks right now. So how’s about we offer you a sizzling new mix to get you thinking of the warmer times ahead?! Like a mirage on a foot high snow bank, Chus + Ceballos’ first ever mix compilation from house music authority Nervous Records – Back On Tracks – is a delicious slice of hypnotizing, warm, inviting tribal soundscapes laced with a brilliant use of modern tech elements.
Chus & Ceballos are known throughout the club world as one of the most exciting, dazzling DJ/production duos. With their excellent production works, their coveted remixes, and their marathon DJ sets, they capture the genuine Iberican sound; a perfect marriage of House and Techno whose common factor is the unmistakable beat of the percussion. This sound was originally crafted as an alternative to the dark and brooding prog style that was threatening to rule the scene. Chus & Ceballos vision was, and continues to be a much welcomed breath of fresh air.

If variation is key to being a successful DJ then Chris Wren is one of the most successful djs on this planet…with his Februray 2010 Freshcast mix Chris introduces a little old school and brings in the new school with “Whoomp!” and Seamus Haji mix of “My Destiny”.
With a transverse array of beats you’re going to hear angelic vocals of “2 Spirits” to dirty electro “Alcoholic” of John Dahlback. This is the way we like it…a little schizo, a little out of the ordinary, a little 80’s with bootleg mixes of “Tom’s Diner” & “Flash, Dance, Shout” you really don’t know what to expect next.
In fact the only thing consistent with Chris Wren is his ability to mix things up and provide stellar mixes time after time…
You might want to shake it out before you get into this electro house mix by M-Erson as his “Universal Mind Control” is to mess with ya…but mess with you in a good way…you know the way that music makes you feel sometimes! Oh yeah and “Everything Bad is Good For You” well that’s the way the mix starts anyway and truth be told we like it BAD, especially when it’s mixed this way!
The climax comes early with the funked out beats of “Universal Mind Control” by Common…so good it gets between your teeth and keeps you smiling like a bitch at a party who takes up all that space with her ass shaking.
You’re going to like the remainder of this journey there’s a lot of “Drop the Bomb” and “Dirty Sexxx” playing with the synths and prepping something a little dirtier..the killer mix of “Next Episode Booleg” of Snoo and Dre.
Shake that Thing with M-Erson’s Universal Mind Control…
Just in time to get you all chilled out and ready for some lovin, Pat Lezizmo releases “Valentine Love Mix” full of the richest and deepest house beats of the last decade.
With artists such as Gaelle, Kevin Yost, Bluse Six, Miguel Migs, Lisa Shaw and Andy Caldwell this is the quintessential love mix of this century that brings you memories to remember, laughter that will bring more than just an overall sense of pure relaxation and definitely put you in the mood.
Press play, give a little and get a lot back in return…
Hold on tight you are ready for a ride on a freaky deaky rollercoaster with DJ Seta ripping it up electro house style “In Da House”!
This is a pure electro mix featuring the likes of Steve Aoki, Chuckie & LMFAO, Black Eyed Peas and Axwell and around each corner is a little surprise full of dirty synth and pumping basslines that’s definitely not meant for the weak-hearted. We particularly like the Bart B More Remix of Crookers Kellis “No Security”, this will shake up any dance floor and only mad house padding would keep the walls from falling cause “Play with It” by Breakdown is only going to make it crazier!
Enjoy this mix and even though it’s only February it’ll make
BALANCE 016: AGORIA Release Electro House Music
U.S. Release Date: March 16, 2010
After raising the bar to unprecedented heights in 2009 with Joris Voorn and Will Saul’s stunning additions to the series, EQ Recordings’ Balance series returns for the new decade with yet another standard-setting mix from one of the most sophisticated and inspiring names in techno, frenchman – Agoria.
The man otherwise known as Sebastien Devaud wasn’t bitten by the dance music bug until he was out of his teens, but once he began hunting imported 12”s from the US and Germany in his native France, there was no turning back. His production career began in 1999, with his debut album Blossom and first compilation following in 2003 – and it was clear even in those early days that a serious new talent was emerging. Blending the throb and groove of deeper, stripped-back techno with a keen sense of musicality, emotion and atmosphere, his is a sound that transcends beyond mere dancefloor disposability.
As heard in recent DJ sets from the likes of Danny Tenaglia, Ellen Allien, Laurent Garnier, Paolo Mojo, Radio Slave, Seth Troxler, Slam and many more.
Satoshi Tomiie plays an integral part in one of dance music’s biggest legacies. A top DJ, producer and owner of Saw Recordings, Tomiie is also a member (along with David Morales, Frankie Knuckles, Hector Romero and GM, Judy Weinstein) of the legendary Def Mix crew. Those in the know can attest to the fact that dance music would simply not be the same without their influence; and through all the ups and downs of the industry, this team always pushes back stronger. The New York City-by-way-of-Tokyo based Tomiie feels particularly inspired these days and drops a techno monster with the release (under the guise of MES) of “Back To Basics.” On the flip, Motorcitysoul adds some Detroit flavor to the mix
“Back To Basics” is about digging deep and searching for the one feeling or moment that inspired your love of music. Do you remember the smile you had on your face when you heard something fresh and new for the first time? Remove all the inhibitions and let loose the way you used to. For Satoshi Tomiie, “Back To Basics” is not about revisiting the past just to create something retro or ironic, but rather, he’s referencing key moments of his musical life to create for the future. No rules, no limits. See it. Hear it. Feel it.
We welcome a new superstar electro house music DJ to TheFreshpage – a bad ass by the name of DJ Dinsy! This guy is going to freak you good with this stellar mix Freak Me F**ing Good. It’s just too good to not perk up and pay attention.
Let’s “Get Nasty” with the premiere track’s chunky electro beats with no delay to the “U Freak Me” edit by Dinsy himself. And prepare yourself for some heavy bass in Orlando Voorn’s Deamau5 remix of Paco Di Bangos World. There is no “Monkey Business” here as DJ Dan is back in the scene with this stellar track shaking things up and making way to Timbaland vs Nirvana “Smells Like Morning After Dark”.
We have to say this is what we like most about DJ Dinsy, he has no fear of getting too dirty, or too dark and then turning night into day like his back to back tracks of The Prodigy “Invaders Must Die” and Kristine W’s “The Power of Music”. And this is how the the conclusion of this set leaves to your senses – a feeling that light shining through all the peaks and valleys of the melodies in this set. We can’t wait to hear more!
