Anyways, Özgur Can’s new label “My Disco Preset” will be released soon and tomorrow the guys behind “Save Me Records” will have their release party on Esque. Check the flyer!

Ashley Wallbridge. Haven’t heard of him before but this guy from the UK seems to have some talent, that’s for sure. This track is f***ing amazing! You should really check it out. It got released on Beatport yesterday together with the track “New Moonlight” which is a fantastic tune as well. Hot, hot, hot! Visit his MySpace and give him some love!

Ashley Wallbridge - Omega (Original Mix)

Now it’s time for a new track by Wendel Kos. We all know this dude from his previous hit record called “Retox”. An outstanding flippin’ track! Now he’s back with something more progressive and beautiful and I must say it’s very good. Buy it if you like it!

Wendel Kos - Sueno (Original Mix)

I hope you enjoyed these wonderful tracks and you should really check out the track “New Moonlight” by Ashley Wallbridge. So darn good!

Love,

Benny

Some Love Motel remixes. If you haven’t heard about Love Motel before just visit their MySpace! Some electro rock kinda stuff. Kinda cool actually. But I just want you to focus on these two remixes which are my favorites.

First up is a remix from our lovely friend GRUM. As always he’s hitting it electro big time and I just love it. If you enjoy GRUM’s music you sure as hell will enjoy this one! Electronica at it’s finest. Bow!

Love Motel - Cosmic Love (GRUM Remix)

Now it’s time for some techno stuff. Dunwich from Paris with his contribution to a Love Motel remix. Actually this track is very good. A mix between techno and mellow electronica I would say. Fuck it, just listen!

Love Motel - Square Gardens (Dunwich Remix)

That’s it! Don’t forget to Ask John Dahlbäck a question. Take your chance. Cheers!

Benny

Hey guys, what’s up? Now it’s time for you, the visitors and readers, to get a chance to ask John Dahlbäck some questions you want the answer for. It’s very simple. You e-mail me the questions you want to ask and me and John will pick out the best and most serious questions. After we’ve done that, John will answer them. Pretty simple, huh? And I think it will be quite fun as well. Don’t you think?

So, if you have any questions for John please e-mail them to me on benny.gobananaz@gmail.com. Don’t forget to mention your name and stuff so I can include that when we publish all the questions and answers. I hope you’ll enjoy this!

Love,

Benny

Finally 555 by Steve & Seb has been released on Beatport and I actually like this track but since everyone already heard the original mix I thought you might wanna hear this lovely progressive one by the great Popof instead. If you rather want the original mix, Chris Barrat Remix or even the Beatport exclusive “Popof Club Mix” you should get straight to Beatport and buy your favorite! Here’s mine:

Steve Angello & Sebastian Ingrosso - 555 (Popof Neo Trans Version)

Another great release from a bunch of great producers. Booka Shade’s track “Charlotte” remixed by Dubfire from Deep Dish got released today as well. Great stuff! This is more of a techno track but it’s so frickin’ good I don’t know where to go! Logon to Beatport if you rather want anything else.

Booka Shade - Charlotte (Dubfire Remix)

Killer tunes! Wow, great way to start the day!

Oh brother, what can you say? Moonbeam’s latest release “Seeming Reflection” is a pure beauty ladies and gentlemen! When it comes to electronic dance music I totally believe in love at first… Anyways, Moonbeam has this special sound and a real feeling for melodies and this track is no exception. Buy it on Beatport if you want to.

Moonbeam - Seeming Reflection (Original Mix)

Gui Boratto’s popular track “Haute Couture” is a great techno tune you all will love. It fits my techno taste perfectly which is a good sign for you who might not love techno as much as others do. This track got released together with “Anunciacion” which is the name of the EP.

The swedish youngster Audible earned some fame around the Internet for his Beatport release “Valhalla” earlier this year. A track many of us came to enjoy really much, me included. Now it’s time for me to give you to unreleased tracks from this talented fellow.

Weird enough these two tracks will stay unreleased but since I like them so much I want to make sure you get them as well. This kid deserves some recognition and I’m here to give it to him. Enjoy these two full tracks in 320! By the way, both these tracks are great but I must admit I like Dahlia very much!

Audible - Dahlia (Original Mix)
Audible - The Meaning Of (Original Mix)

Wolfgang Gartner released his new EP yesterday and damn it’s hot! With his cool electro sound he’s becoming my favorite. I’m totally hooked! It’s just amazing. With three consecutive releases in top class I just have to take my hat off for this man. Buy the EP if you like it, or just your favorite?

Wolfgang Gartner - Frenetica (Original Mix)

This track doesn’t need any further presentation. It’s the No. 1 on Beatport damnit! Electro House with some spanish elements. Check it out for urself! If you more of a techno guy you should check out the release to find techno remixes from Martin Eyerer and Rainer Weichhold.

Jean Claude Ades & Vincent Thomas - Shingaling (Original Mix)

Shake it!

My friend Alaa with a couple of really great tracks and I’m happy to give you these tunes. First off is a Royksopp remix which Alaa did together with his friend John Nasty. This track is pretty mellow and soft but very good. Chill stuff you know, I hope you like it.

Royksopp - Only This Moment (Alaa vs John Nasty Remix)

This one is a taste of what other stuff he’s capable of doing. Just close your eyes and enjoy this beautiful progressive track! It’s just lovely and I’m listening to it as we speak. Give the man some love by writing in his blog or leave a comment here!

Alaa - Obsessed by You (Original Mix)

I sure have my hopes up for this talented guy from Linköping, Sweden. Even when it comes to DJ:ing. We will see more from him on this blog in the future. Just stay tuned!

Benny

Mark Mendes is about to release his new track “Work” on Beatport. Actually, it will be released tomorrow if nothing goes wrong. Mark Mendes rarely disappoint his fans and this case is no exception. This is a main-room killer in proper house manner. With a heavy bassline and a killer melody this track totally gets the Ibiza vibe going!

There is no doubt that this is going to be one of the biggest tunes this summer. Don’t get surprised if you hear it during the Ibizia season! Enjoy.

Mark Mendes - Work (Original Mix) PREVIEW

Don’t forget to buy your own copy on Beatport tomorrow!

Benny

UPDATE: It has been released now and is available on Beatport! Check it out!

Seems like there’s a lot of stuff coming from this talented fellow right now. Once again he’s here with a banger in his usual manner. Progressive as always and he doesn’t disappoint anyone! I just love his work and his sound. Feels clean and fresh. Oh, I forgot. I’m talking about EDX!

Degrees of Motion - Shine On (EDX’s ‘Dubai Skyline’ Remix)

Gregor Tresher. A Thousand Nights. Man, this track spins my world at the moment. Techno at a level even I can really love. It has this little melody that get stuck in your head. If you haven’t heard this one you better check it out. Lovely. This release comes with a whole bunch of remixes, a Dubfire remix for example. Check it out on Beatport!

Gregor Tresher - A Thousand Nights (Original Mix)

I hope you enjoy these great tracks as much as I do. Keep it real, stay in school and peace in the middle east.

Good Cause / Bad Cause was released on West Recordings about a month ago. I was given a good press release regarding these two tracks so I figured that would be better. However, if you want to buy these two tracks and support please visit Beatport. Enjoy!

“David West unleashes another dynamic, multi-layered tune in the form of ‘Good Cause’. Building slowly and gathering momentum through its bouncing, hypnotic grooveline, West adds in some gentle keys and rippling, futuristic waves backed up by an airy, uplifting, almost house-influenced synth line which builds into a spacey, feel-good chorus.”

David West - Good Cause (Original Mix)

“On the flipside, ‘Bad Cause’ is constructed on top of the same crisp percussion and bassline and retains the ‘airy’ feel of its predecessor but, as suggested by the title, the bright and breezy melody of the A-side has been roughly elbowed aside by a mean and moody synth that prods and stabs its way towards a distorted, fuzzy chorus section. A murky, mysterious alter-ego, ‘Bad Cause’s’ contrasting sounds add an unexpected wist to what could be (for all the right reasons of course) described as a ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ release.”

David West - Bad Cause (Original Mix)
