This song makes me want to drink a Corona on the beach….and it’s only 10 am. I never thought a reggae remix of T.I. was going to happen…and sound so amazing.

Just look at this picture!!!! for it is only a glimpse of the strangeness your ears are soon to encounter. Hidrogenesse is a duo from Spain. They classify themselves as “Glam/Big Beat/Folk Music”. I just call them brilliant. They have a new album out called Bestiola.
P.S. I hope those visors become fashionable in the US.

Something New

Something New photo

“I like how now it’s pretty much over with new blogs about hyping every electro bangers type of stuff… We see the rise on the forefront of the blog world of a bunch of new columns with a strong historical point of view and a taste for re-discoveries.”–Redhotcar via La New Shit

Are you tired of downloading electro bangers? I freaking not. Is there really a trend of post-electro bloggers? Is that why Fuck You On Friday keeps posting random ass songs from the 1970’s? I already went through a “re-discovery” phase. You can only rediscover so much….then you are back to wanting something new again. Electro is a genre that is constantly developing. It fixes my cravings for new, original artists and nothing is better than hearing your favorite song you found on the internet played out at a club. Electro will one day be “historic”. Until then…bang bang juke juke.

If this song were a shot it would be vodka for it is silky smooth, clear, and makes me want to get naked.

Felix Cartal, Banger Master

Felix Cartal, Banger Master photo
I went out to Carnival at Suite B in Orlando last Wednesday, and to my surprise, the place was packed full of people. They all came to see Felix Cartal and the “mystery guest”, L.A. Riots. Something was certainly different in the Carnival atmosphere. I kept thinking that they must have gotten a new sound system or something because the place was literally shaking. What was it? And who the hell was playing these wicked thrash electro bangers? Felix Cartal. FELIX CARTEL IS THE BANGER MASTER!!!!!!He is the most banginest of bangers that I have ever wanted to bang before. His banging radiated throughout the building, sending bangs down my spine. I banged my head and I banged it some more. I have never seen that club so packed, so sweaty, and so fucking loud. Never ever ever confuse Felix Cartel with Felix da Housecat. Cartal is not a pussy.

Boy 8-bit sounds like Satan just took over your Atari. Needless to say, it’s good stuff. It’s got all that wholesome grime and energy that a hearty Electro song should have.
