I’ll be heading out for a little tour on the East Coast later this week which will eventually wind up at my old haunt, Beat Research at the Enormous Room in Cambridge, MA. Can’t wait to get back on the decks there with fellow riddim methodists DJ Flack and Wayne&Wax! For the past few years DJ Flack has been teaching…

Since You’ve Been In This Club
DJ C; Since You’ve Been In This Club* -> [audio:https://archive.mashit.com/audio/Since_Youve_Been_In_This_Club.mp3] Wayne pointed out this article by Sasha Frere-Jones on The New Yorker site about Auto Tune. It’s the software that makes singers on many of todays pop songs sound inhuman. It’s purpose is to artificially correct the pitch of sung notes, but when tweaks are made to the settings other-worldly…
Free Club Mashup: Big Whoop!
You’re probably thinking “Great, another free club mashup. Big whoop!” But you ain’t heard Big Whoop! yet. Give this a listen: Big Whoop!

Lazer-Bass
Megasoid; Tank Thong Remix Tape [audio:https://archive.mashit.com/audio/TANK%20THONG%20MIXTAPE.mp3] I was reading the New Yorker this week and came across an article by Sasha Frere-Jones in which he coined the term “lazer bass” to describe the music of Montreal-based party crew Megasoid. Ghislain Poirier used to call the genre “big asshole bass” or “big ass bass.” accurate descriptions but less likely to fly…
“Jumpfast” Van Halen, Supremes Mashup
Chapel Hill, NC-based Apple Juce Kid sent me his remix of Van Halen’s 1984 classic Jump a while back. He said I should feel free to re-remix it if I felt so inclined so I did. Well, actually I didn’t do much to it but lay the Supremes You Keep Me Hangin’ On acapella on top. Here’s what it sounds…
Track of the Week: Steak House Bodywork Bassline Mashup
In keeping with our last Track of the Week we bring you another bassline-house mashup, this time by Bristol, UK-based Steak House crew. This is also a teaser of sorts for the upcoming DJ C & Zulu Gods & Robots mixtape which will feature an original Atki2 (of Steak House) production with Zulu. A couple months back we posted a…
This Is My Jam
My friends over at The Echo Nest have done it again. This time they’ve got a wacky new web 2.0 music app called “This Is My Jam.” It’s still in beta, actually I think it may still be in alpha but they’ve given me the go ahead to share it with y’all. Here’s how it works: Use the search box…
Track of the Week: “Somebody’s a Flirt”
I wanted to have some new music for the FlosstraPROMus party; something at least slightly Valentine’s Day themed since the party fell on Feb. 14 (pictures here and here). What better combination than some adrenaline infused bassline-house with local Chi-Town hero R. Kelly’s vocals on top, I though to myself. Perhaps the lyrics to I’m a Flirt don’t capture the…
