Project Cyborg : The Story

In the streets of Gotham city, every day is a struggle for survival. The fraudulent regime, rising taxes and growing crime rates cause stress, negativism and desolation among the citizens. The People are lost.

But the time for change has come….
Rumour has it that two men have risen from the rubble. It is said that these men dare to stand up, take control and ensure that the people will never be bored at night again. Voices in the streets whisper about a corporation these men have founded. A corporation with solely one purpose…

To obliterate the status quo by throwing some fucking parties!

The passion …
The money…
The dance moves…

This corporation is believed to go by the name of…

The Project Cyborg Corporation.

I mailed Clark Able a few days ago and he gave me this shitload promo back with the dirty fidget house bombs he makes. Clark Able is an Italian producer that makes the ESP Records label stronger. He started to compose with electronic instruments around 2000 and got into software a few years ago. He gave me a promo pack with some remixes, but be sure to keep an eye on Beatport and Junodownload. he’s next release, Lemon Head, is about to air digitally with remixes of The Crookers, Hijack and Nic Sarno!

It’s been a while since we’ve heard something from our friend Ryan Moore aka Kid Nexus. But no news is good news. Right? Yeah, it defenitely is. Ryan was very busy with a new project that he recently launched with his friend Johan Collins. They’re calling themselfs Nightsweats. They’ve already been live and apparently that’s been a good live session because so many people including some big names in the electro scene have been begging for their brand new tracks.

Four months ago, three young Belgian DJ’s decided to start producing under the name Soda&Suds. They want just one thing, produce hard banging electro with punk, hardcore and progressive rock influences. And hard banging it is!

Their name is based on one of dEUS‘ big hits in Belgium Suds&Soda, which refers to their rock roots … And the mixture of several different styles you can hear in that track, is totally what Soda&Suds are aiming for in their sound.

Now check out these two track I’ve selected … they’re hard and yeah, they’ve got the guts to remix Guerila Radio form RATM! I bet that remix sounds crazy on a big bouncing soundsystem!
