Bad-fucking-ass:

New Digweed album out March 19, a few days before the annual Winter Music Conference....in Miami.

Absolutely outstanding mix of a classic track from Sasha's San Francisco (GU009). Listen to this once and tell me you don't wanna hit the dance floor...

Der Dritte Raum - "Hale Bopp" (Sebastian Leger Mix)

This is over a month coming but my favorite set of 2011 has to be N-Tchbl's July set for Frisky Radio. The music in this set is so driving and fresh and the overall mood of the set is established early on with back-to-back tracks from Stanisha preceded by an upbeat introduction. The first Stanish track, "It's ok" is a robotic, roller coaster ride of tribal and progressive house that leads into another of similar quality called "Hypnotize Me". The set then moves into some minimal/tribal beats and finally into the throws of a beautiful vocal that sounds eerily similar to Polaroid's "So Damn Beautiful" (think Dave Seaman). This final track track is smooth and lush and ends the set perfectly with some dissipating vocals.

I was introduced to N-tchbl via Frisky Radio early last year and ended up buying a monthly subscription to the station which enabled me to download each and every N-tchbl set. While the July 2011 set is my favorite, the December 2011 set by N-tchbl is a close second.

Have a listen yourself to the July 2011 Frisky Radio set yourself:

Nicolas Coronel has delivered another amazing Frisky Radio set (for those that subscribe like me). Part 2 of his December Mestiza set is absolutely brilliant progressive house. The music is high energy towards the end of part 2 and it's the kind of music that makes you want to dance.right.now.

Martin Gore from Depeche Mode and Vincent Clarke from Erasure got together again for the first time in 30 years to produce a new album it's straight up minimal techno. The EP is titled "Spock" and I've got to say it's great. I especially love the Regis Mix as it has some nasty, dark sounds resonating through it.

I just got lost in the last thirty minutes of Nicolas Coronel's November MESTIZA set for Frisky Radio (Part 2). Such amazing, invigorating music.
