Before we head back to heavy beats and loud roaring basslines dream away on Chromeo‘s live session of Don’t Walk Away.

Yourstru.ly Presents: Chromeo “Don’t Walk Away” from Yours Truly on Vimeo.

Not so long ago I received a whole bunch of tracks of this Japanese electro producer known as Hoshina Anniversary. I’ve to be honest with you, I’d never heard of this guy ever in my life. But I curious as I am I checked him out. I don’t know anything about him. But after listening to his music I know he’s got a lot of potential and really knows how to make really nice roaring basslines. Eventhough his productions sometimes kind of  sounds a little cheap, I mean it doesn’t sound really complicated. It’s hard and banging and the basslines does it all.

I’ve selected two tracks and one Chromeo remix. These really describes his style and If you dig him and you accidently own a record label… He’s still unsigned!

As you may have noticed, we have a new feature in our sidebar called The Dropbox. We’ve already received very nice tracks through there, so we figured, lets feature them in a special topic. So here it is, our first Drop it post of many to come. We might make a separate category for this. We’ll see.

Anyway here we go.

We start off with a track by Alice Klar!. Alice is from liverpool, Chris is german, when they meet you get a bubble gum chewing tune… with the potential to float the dance floot! I couldn’t describe it better! Enjoy Montag by Alice Klar!.

The second very nice remix we’ve received in our dropbox is from two young talented London based djs/producers called J.E.M.C.. They’re both 17 years old and have been djing for only 6 months. Check out their already amazing remix of Benny Bennasi’s I Am Not Drunk.

Yes, as you can see. Our dropbox is really a succes. Our third tune is a really funky one of the Super Fresh Power Squad. They describe their music as intergalactic spandex sex funk. Sexy it is and reminds me a lot of of Chromeo’s funky sound. Check it out.

Now we’ve got two more tracks left. One is from Moog Skywalker & Zappenduster both signed under aUtOdiDakT’s label Traktor-Records. The other one is from two Antwerp based producers Netsky & Nightrash with a very nice minimal sound. Simply a very nice warming up club track. Also I’m wondering how they got together because Netsky is actually more a Drum ‘n Bass producer. Wonderful how they mixed up their style. Enjoy!
