A-Trak goes back to his roots. The guy was absolutely in the zone here. Cheers to our friends at Fried My Little Brain for the heads up on this.
Love this! Todd Edwards bringing some 2-step goodness to Miami last weekend. AMAZING.
A big thank you goes out to Glenjamn for the videos.
A-Trak gave us a heads up on this teaser for Sebastian Ingrosso’s world tour. He’s got a new EP and future tour videos coming soon.
A-Trak’s mix CD ‘Infinity +1′ is dropping on April 14th on Thrive Records with a tour to promote it. Sinden and DJ Mehdi will be supporting on a few of the dates.
DJ Atrak has made a pretty seamless transition into the dance music from his hip hop/turntablism upbringing. The new indie label he started with Nick Catchdubs (Fool’s Gold) is on the rise with acts like Treasure Fingers and LA Riots in high demand on the remix and DJ circuit. Doesn’t hurt being pals with Kanye West. Atrak linked up with house-meister Laidback Luke and together they spawned “Shake It Down.” Produced in just four hours?! We hear Luke knocks out new productions and remixes in record time. The tune has gotten some significant play in recent months and now gets its official release on Fool’s Gold with a remix from none other than the legendary DJ Sneak.
Here is some feedback from some of the big names canning this track:
“Guaranteed to shake any room to its deepest foundations.” - Erol Alkan
“A complete monster… really massive. It’s like a ‘get out of jail free’ track.” - Tiga
“The best track of the year, ‘Shake It Down’ is my favorite club music. My secret weapon for the 6 last months.” - Brodinski
“This record doesn’t sound new or old, it just feels like dancin!” - Feadz
“Best Hip-Hop/Techno collaboration since Mel Gibson and Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon 2. Makes me wanna be Joe Pesci to three-peat.” - DJ Mehdi
“Big tune!” - Boys Noize
“Dope track, play it all the times big or micro rooms… just bangin everywhere!!!” - Crookers
“I’m jealous!!! Fantastic track!!!” - Etienne De Crécy
