MASH-UP MONDAY: The Return of Mega

Dan — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 20:43:45 +0000

It's been ages since we did a Mash-up Monday (or commonly known as Bangers & Mash Mondays) and there's been some heavy mixing as of late. So while Vinny is still stationed under a rock, I'll make an effort to post mash-ups every week or every other Monday. Although I had all the tracks lined up for a Friday post, I failed to deliver the fuego because I didn't quite have enough time for a quality summary. Thus, it's likely that you'll see the freshest fuego from the past couple weeks on this coming Workout Wednesdays. Sorry for annoying you with all these alliterations but it's a great way in maintaining structure.

After seeing 20+live sets over the past couple months, I decided to round up the freshest mash-ups that are straight fuegs on fuegs. To no surprise, an absurd amount were mash-ups to "Flash (Nicky Romero Remix)", "Coming Home (Dirty South Remix), "Epic"' "Calling" and my favorite "Mush Mush".

This monster mash was rocked out by Tiesto during his college invasian tour at the Home Depot Center, which was the largest one-DJ gig in US History with 26,000 ravers. This track surfaced three weeks ago and is well overdue. Prydz' celestial progressive gem "2Night" is a current favorite of mine and I could only imagine how many people were singing along to Wonderwall.

People have been hunting down this track since Ultra and itwas rumored to be Wolfgang's remix to Bob Marley's "Sun Is Shining". It turned out to be a live edit and was never released by Wolfgang. Since releasing his album "Weekend In America" in late September, we discovered that the remix to Bob Marley was ultimately a mash-up of his "The Way It Was". Luckily, Flikhau5 has mashed this into a nice crushable.

Wolfgang Gartner vs. Bob Marley - Shining Sun Is The Way (Flikhau5 Mash-Up Mix)

Shame on me -- I've had this dancefloor destroyer in my library since early July and was never posted. It was then dropped by Alesso during his sets at Electric Zoo and the Electric Zoo party at Pacha, booya!

Swedish House Mafia vs. Tim Mason - One Moment (Romain G vs Nick Svenson Bootleg)

With his monster set at Electric Zoo and the #24 rank from DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs to back it up, it's no secret that 23 year-old Hardwell is the complete package with his polished DJ skills and exceptional production IQ. Example's hit "Changed The Way You Kiss Me", which was produced by Mr. Club Swag Michael Woods, is seamlessly mashed with the dark and heavy "Epic" (released through Tiesto's label Musical Freedom) by the Dutch phenom.

Example vs. Sandro Silva & Quintino - Epic The Way You Kissed Me (Hardwell MashUp)

Speaking of Hardwell, this next mash-up by Markob27 was featured on Hardwell's On Air as the demo of the week. Deniz Koyu and Johan Wedel's remix to "Dangerous" is one of my favorites and it may be one the best and/or underrated tracks of 2011 with it's sinister, big room feel. This Markob27 could not have hit the spot any better with his mash-up of Mush Mush and Epic!

Sandro Silva & Quintino vs Bassjackers - Epic Mush Mush (Markob27 Mashup)

Two newly released BOMBS that I was supposed to post last Friday have recently been mashed into one by DJ Jason Alamo. You guys know how much of a fan I am of The Russian Renaissance, aka Hard Rock Sofa & Swanky Tunes. Their recently released prog bomb "Phantom" is paired with Fedde le Fuego's latest anthem-caliber remix to Coldplay's "Paradise", which was the second track dropped during Avicii's stellar set this past weekend.

Swanky Tunes & Hard Rock Sofa vs. Coldplay & Fedde Le Grand - Phantom Paradise (Jason Alamo Bootleg)

You won't believe me when I say this but Avicii absolutely massacred it this past Saturday at Bert's Warehouse in Detroit. He did his own thing and definitely looked comfortable up there mixing, as he didn't need to rely on his own productions to put on a good show. The kickass speakers didn't hurt either! Here's a popular mash-up that he dropped.

P Diddy, Skylar Grey & Dirty South vs Green Velvet & Nicky Romero - Coming Home vs. Flash (Avicii Bootleg Mash Up)

Trust me on these next couple smashers by Italian duo Promise Land. I promise you quality in these two mash-ups from this Roman duo -- the combination Militia's punchy progressive tempo and Deborah Cox's vocals create for a very dynamic breakdown. As for Guetta's electro-decked album favorite "Glasgow", Daft Punk's vocals are truly a match made in Heaven by Promise Land.

Denzal Park vs. Swedish House Mafia - Militia vs. Leave The World Behind (Promise Land Mash Up)

David Guetta vs. Daft Punk - Glasgow Harder (Promise Land Mash Up)

Posted about a month ago on Kaskade's soundcloud and dropped by EDX during his carefully crafted set at Electric Zoo - this very fluid and uplifting mash-up is also too good to be true.

Kaskade & EDX vs. Alex Gaudino - Don't Stop Kissing (Kaskade Mash Up)

No one will judge if you don't have this mash-up by now.

Starkillers, Alex Kenji, Nadia Ali & Alesso vs. Coldplay - Fix You(r) Pressure (East & Young Mashup)

FUEGO GRENADES

Dan — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 23:36:10 +0000

This was supposed to be a Fuego Fridays 14 post but due to a broke ass internet connection in the morning and Identity Festival throughout the day, it had to be postponed.

With his fifth studio recorded album set to release on August 29th, David Guetta has decided tease us with a fresh another fresh single called "Lunar" that features Afrojack which was released in Europe only. It sounds a lot like Daft Punk to me but is an absolute progressive electro smasher. "Titanium" is another European-only released track from his upcoming studio album that features sensual vocals by Sia. Lastly we have "Sunshine", which is Guetta's most highly anticipated collaboration with Avicii -- it seems that there are no high quality versions out but here's a decent rip and a high quality mash-up (which I prefer) with the vocals to Laidback Luke's "Till Tonight."

David Guetta & Afrojack - Lunar (Original Mix)
David Guetta - Titanium (Feat. Sia)
David Guetta & Avicii - Sunshine (Radio Mix)
David Guetta & Avicii vs Laidback Luke - Till Sunshine (Pixel Cheese Bootleg) FUEGO

Remember Cazette, whose remix to "Sweet Dreams" crushed labelmate Avicii's? He's back again with another gritty electro bomb with this remix to the legendary "Bromance". Also, a friend sent over a high quality vocal mix of Avicii's remix to "Derezzed".
Daft Punk - Derezzed (Avicii Vocal Edit)
Tim Berg - Seek Bromance (Cazette Meets Ash Vocal Mix)

Here's Wolfgang's latest single "Menage A Trois" which was released in early August. It's an okay track, nothing too special but very Wolfgang -- weird electro beats.
Wolfgang Gartner - Menage A Trois (Original Mix)

Example's flow and energy perfectly suits Laidback Luke's sense of progressive urgency in this soon-to-be occurring natural disaster.
Laidback Luke vs Example - Natural Disaster (Vocal Mix)

"The Edge of The Earth" is quite the summer jam and is one of my current favorites. The Spanish guitars, haunting voice of Sam Obernik and tech rhythm will reach the club dance floors by the masses.Richard Dinsdale has been on mega with his (f***ing) tech bombs "What Do I Do", "DJ, You've Got My Love" and "Mash Up Ya Ego" owning the Beatport charts and making him the #1 selling artist. Australian DJ and producer Hook N Sling is a different animal at the moment with this track showing his flexibility and limitless potential in EDM.
Richard Dinsdale, Sam Obernik & Hook N Sling - Edge Of The Earth (Original Mix)

Speaking of f***ing tech bombs, French producer strays from progressive house and dabbles in tech with his peacock.
Gregori Klosman - Peacock (Original Mix)

If you haven't checked the release yet on beatport, it's absolutely necessary to add these big room bombs to your summer arsenal! The Russian Renaissance, or collectively known as Hard Rock Sofa & Swanky Tunes, have really hit the progressive house scene by storm with their heavy drops and arena-style, big room synths. I posted "Smolengrad" a while back when it was leaked early and released on Dirty South's "Strictly Rhythm" chart and since then it has been one of my favorite tracks of the summer. "I Wanna Be Your Dog", is another hot track which was released today under Sander van Doorn's label on Beatport. It's not your average big room progressive bomb with it's very unorthodox rock style vocals.

This week we're mixing a bunch of old favorites and user recommendations from our friends at Michigan and Duke.
Check out the Atypicals, most of you have probably heard of Mike Posner by now.
