Introducing... Kastle.

This is going to be a quick post, as I really need to crack on with some uni work tonight. Anyway, want you all to check out this new mix from a new artist, Kastle. So new in fact, it's only been off the ground since December. This mix is from January, but that really means nothing when you look at a tracklisting like this.

Perfect vibes, awesome bass, and the cheekiest cover of Radiohead I've ever heard. A new side project from one of the US scene's biggest players (you know that dude B.Rich right? of course you do) and with a forthcoming release on Starkey's Seclusiasis, Kastle is set for a big, big, big year... This is BIG!

Weekly News

First up on the news this week, is clearly the most important and it's the title of the second artist album from the legend that be Boys Noize. In a display of everything formuliac about the german based DJ & Producer, who along with Erol Alkan has been playing out tracks from the album, let slip that the album will be simply called POWER.

A tracklisting that is likely to include the already released Starter and Jeffer - along with several others he's been playing out including Come With Me and Transmichen - has not yet been released.
A release date has not yet been confirmed but it is expected to be released sometime during the Autumn. In celebration of this fantastic news, I though it appropriate to issue you with a recent live mix of the man that'd been floating around in the last couple of week. Unfortunately, I can't find a tracklisting anywhere :/. However, enjoy!

Palms Out bad-boy B.Rich has notched up a up promo mix for July with a sterling track selection and a fine display of his smooth operation of the decks... I'm rather a fan of the first mix, definitely the best mix out of that Jack Beats remix I've ever heard. Don't miss this exclusive as the man is gearing up for a tour of the UK in October, a slot @ London's Egg is clearly very likely.

However, I have saved the best news for last this week. It has been confirmed that this week's upcoming Radio 1 Essential Mix, previously stated as highlights from Exit Festival in Serbia, shall be a live performance from Dubfire and Richie Hawtin from July 10th. News that has made my night in this weekend due to lack of funds all the more merrier!

You can of course find a tracklisting for the mix as it becomes available from the Essential Mix site, and no doubt it'll be available from every single music blog in the known universe from Monday morning onwards.

The only thing left to say now, is I hope Adebayor enjoys his time at Man City... and I hope he enjoys he first visit back at The Emirates... traitor!
