A new NERD single called “Everyone Nose” has been bouncing around for the past couple of weeks. Its also the soundtrack for the new Louis Vuitton ad that Pharrell was asked to appear in for the “Blason” jewelry line. Looking forward to hearing the new album and some fresh Neptunes production work. That wobbly bass line lets on that Pharrell has been listening to some Herve.

Dates soon to come. Stay tuned….

Ed Banger Records 5th Birthday is right around the corner and Ed Rec Vol. III will be released in accordance. Today the interweb was ablaze with a track called “Hope” that is said to be new material from Justice. Google it and judge for yourself. Got a tip from our friend Asian Dan on the picture below showing the french connection with none other than Rick Rubin. The picture is more interesting than the tune everyone is buzzing about in our opinion.

Edit: Its been confirmed that its not Justice.

Very eager to hear some new Basement Jaxx material this year. They have been under the radar for some time now only doing a handful of international DJ dates. Word is that they have been in the studio working on material with various known and unknown vocalists. Keeping our fingers crossed that they throw in some dirty house jams on the new record. In the meantime, here is a new Robbie Rivera remix of a classic Jaxx tune that is sure to get people’s hands in the air.

The rhythm…the tracks….the Basement….the Jaxx!! Jaxx your body!!

Thank you to our friends at Discobelle for this one. It warrants the extra exposure. This remix is going to be a staple for many DJs over the coming months. We continue to be excited about anything with the Crookers name attached to it. Hoping to get them out here to the US this year. Stay tuned…

Overall, we are somewhat disapointed… But there are highlights in the day lineups with the Ed Banger crew, Diplo, Institubes DJs, Midnight Juggernauts and a handful of others. Jack Johnson as a headliner????? Falling asleep just thinking about it.

Our friend ROCCANOVA gives MSTRKRFT a run for their money with this remix of “Neon Knights.” Another electro banger to add to the crates.

Impressive lineup again compiled by the good folks at Fabric. They were kind enough to send us the upcoming DJ Craze and M.A.N.D.Y Fabriclive mixes recently. Public thank you for that! Go out and buy them!!

This one is going to slay dance floors this year. A remix of the classic Flashdance theme by the mad masked DJ/producers The Bloody Beetroots. Brings the Michael Sembello original back to the future.
