Tuskegee Cadet & Blazin – “Keep It 100 Mixtape”

Posted on October 18, 2011 by jon @ aerial noise

The Los Angeles based producer Blazin put hip-hop drums against prismatic synths on his last beat tape, “Night Career”, and it’s two parts “Raw Like a Circular Saw” and “Relics of Psychedelics”. Blazin has hooked up with his cohort (whose name I find to be genius) TuskegeeCadet on his latest mixtape, “Keep It 100”, a title that connotes the rhythmic artisanship you can expect from the pairing. All beats were handcrafted by Blazin and TuskegeeCadet, with Blazin handling mixing duties. TuskegeeCadet also helped out with some mind expanding visuals in the form of a promo vid…

MINNESOTA x2!

Posted on April 25, 2011 by matt @ aerial noise

Double the sentiment, double your pleasure, double your fun!

With an aim to make bass heavy dubstep/glitch-hop music that’ll get you dancing (and is not the same old, 3 note transformer-step..), USCS’s History major Christian Bauhofer aka Minnesota takes a bite out of the glorious peaches of Santa Cruz, California and crafts a dual wonderment of Stella Artois refined beverages, with a side order of other miniatures and lagers just incase you don’t like those big n’ chunky Artois’s that are on offer here …

With that said, Minnesota’s re-take of SVD’s XX Booty Mix of ‘Intro,’ originally done by The XX, perfectly enhances Sander Van Doorn’s own inspiration and gives The XX even more creative turns on the dancefloor for future months of longevity. ‘Juicy’ retains that same element also and smashes home The Notorious B.I.G.’s unique skills for all underground and less discerning dancefloors worldwide.

We tip our hats to you Sir!

SANDER VAN DOORN – XX Booty (Minnesota Remix)

BIGGIE SMALLS – Juicy (Minnesota Remix)

Mochi Beats – Blessed Bass [Avicii + Big Boi + Nicki Minaj]

Posted on April 17, 2011 by adam @ aerial noise

Just received a great mash-up mix from Mochi Beats entitled Blessed Bass that features the very talented Avicii, Big Boi, and Nicki Minaj. It’s a great club track that will easily fuel the party with its catchy and captivating vibes. I like it more and more with each listen.

Mochi Beats is a talented producer who tossed us a dynamite Deadmau5 mash-up in the past entitled Ghosts ‘N Weekends. Listen to it here.

PHARRELL & DAFT PUNK – The Game Has Changed

Posted on April 14, 2011 by matt @ aerial noise

The Game certainly has, if Pharrell is lending his lyrics over Daft Punk’s TRON Legacy track of the same name folks. Artistically credible, with an already epic backing, the addition of a plausible hip hop artist over the instrumental of a thought provoking soundtrack piece does no harm to the Original indeed. If in doubt then ask the other half of N*E*R*D, Nero, Paul Oakenfold and the Swedish House Mafia. Hmmmmm, I see a pattern developing here…

PHARRELL – The Game Has Changed

BONUS!

N*E*R*D & DAFT PUNK – Hypnotize U (Nero Remix)

BEASTIE BOYS – Make Some Noise [Capitol Records]

Posted on April 13, 2011 by matt @ aerial noise

Since the 2007 release of “The Mix-Up” LP, King Ad-Rock, MCA, and Mike D of the Beastie Boys have been stirring away in preparation for some patent Beastie-Boys-action. ‘Make Some Noise’ returns as a terrific single to the fold, with a brand new album to accompany it come the merry third day in May. “Hot Sauce Committee Part Two” LP should be another banger!

BEASTIE BOYS – Make Some Noise

NICKY RAGE vs. SKRILLEX vs. LA ROUX

Posted on April 7, 2011 by matt @ aerial noise

Besides the bad idea of layering Busta Rhymes vocals over Tiësto vs. Diplo – ‘C’mon,’ Nicky Rage sends us his own genius mixtape of tight n’ spacey lyrical flow over Skrillex’s unbelievable remix of La Roux’s, ‘In For The Kill.’

Totally refreshing to hear this in this context, so if you haven’t heard the Original umpteenth times already, then get ready to inject a new audio outtake on your very La Roux ears!

Nice one Nicky!

LA ROUX – In For The Kill (Skrillex Remix) (Nicky Rage Re-Vocal-Edit)

Wale [Attention Delegate]

Posted on March 20, 2011 by adam @ aerial noise

Wale is one interesting character. The D.C .vocalist has revamped a bunch of electro beats in his Attention Delegate compilation, which is available for free off of bandcamp. The blend works surprisingly well together. To show this off we off the revamp with Sam Sparro’s Black N’ Gold is on display below. It is very reminiscent of Drake’s partnership with The Crookers a few years back in how rap can have a positive impact on some great oldies.

The PR statement goes a little something like this:

It’s delegate now, not deficit, because with the selections we handpicked from mixtapes, remixes, mash-ups, and the album itself, there would no longer be a lack of attention for the superbly talented artist. See the full spectrum of Wale Folarin from start to finish with Artistic Manifesto’s “Attention Delegate.”

KRIS KROSS – Jump (Super Cat Mix) [Ruffhouse Records]

Posted on February 22, 2011 by matt @ aerial noise

“OLD SKOOOOOOL!!!!!”

This track needs absolutely no introduction does it????

It’s totally timeless… and undisputedly, one of the many king-sized rap tracks of the nineties – bar none!

Showcasing a not so much over-played mix of ‘Jump,’ is the Super Cat mix which you see before your eyes. It features a pleasant, but yet credible, ragga lyrical burst throughtout the mid refrain and includes plenty of wicked turntable scratches too.

Anything new & additional is always welcomed to assist that never-tireless-energy that always makes us wanna go “Jump – Jump!”

TURN IT UP!

KRIS KROSS – Jump (Super Cat Mix)

VANILLA ICE – Ice Ice Baby (New Romantic Mix) [SBK Records]

Posted on February 22, 2011 by matt @ aerial noise

Back in 2009/2010 there was an absolutely dodgy ‘housewives choice version’ of this track that re-surfaced slightly via the help of some immature, UK, pre schooler twins. They actually managed to rope in the actual Vanilla Ice (from out of his hiding place) and back into THEIR own public domain which was “not cool” to see in the slightest.

To top that all off, Halifax – the UK’s most, well-known building society – (with no sense and decorum), decided to use the ‘Ice Ice Baby’ idea in one of their adverts just to TRY and make themselves look ‘cool and with-it’ with the general public in an (hand over ones embarrassed face) attempt to advertise their most recent mortgage policy.

Cringing nonetheless, I hope that any inadvertent, continued listening to V.I.’s Original hasn’t put you off the tune of ‘Ice Ice Baby’ altogether, as I’m about to reveal a virtually unheard and unknown remix that sprung up on a 2008 CD from the very man himself.

See what you think about this New Romantic remix and don’t be afraid to drop back any comments Aerials!

Holy Ghost VS. Biggie Smalls

Posted on February 19, 2011 by adam @ aerial noise

Unable to escape the bassline similiarites, Its Overture created a mashup of Holy Ghost’s newest release Do It Again with Biggie’s Hypnotize. It’s good for your ears and perfect for our site. For more blends the guys have a large list available via soundcloud where you can gander over and listen/download at your own will.

The Hood Internet [CFCF + Ice Cube]

Posted on January 27, 2011 by adam @ aerial noise

Binary did it again! The blog turned record label enlightened me with the Chicago-base duo The Hood Internet’s It Was A Rainy Day mashup. It’s a track meant for “the party after the afterparty.” First of all, CFCF is absolutely amazing. I love their sound and if you have been following us since the very beginning or at the very least, glanced at our archives, you’ll understand why. Their sensual and melodramatic beats are heavenly, beautiful, and simply amazing.

When you toss in The Hood Internet’s mashup with Ice Cube, CFCF’s instrumental takes on a whole new dynamic. This track is great for soothing yourself to sleep or taking your boy’s out for a spiritual drive by.

Get more mashups here!

La Roux of 2010

Posted on December 13, 2010 by adam @ aerial noise

Eleanor Jackson of La Roux has had a busy year in 2010. She managed to move her sound to mainstream audiences and in doing so, created a new definition of fame for herself. It’s a feat that more and more electro artists are trying to accomplish and one that even some artists are beginning to become successful at. The UK native laid down some lyrics Kanye West and Jay-Z earlier this year and continues to have her own music remixed the most by independent DJs and producers.

On December 2.2010, La Roux was nominated for a couple Grammy’s including Best Dance Recording (In For The Kill) and Best Electronic/Dance Album (La Roux). The achievement shines a rare spotlight on a genre that really didn’t get much attention until a couple years ago.

The 53rd Annual Grammy Awards will take place on February 13.2011 at the Los Angeles Staples Centre. Stay tuned for the results.

FUKKK OFF! [Worldwide]

Posted on October 22, 2010 by adam @ aerial noise

Fuck, FUKKK OFFF is fucking brilliant when they fucking throw down! Chyeeea! For friday we light it up with an electric rap banger and a big rhythmic masterpiece. Both are from the very same Worldwide EP out on Coco Machete Records now. It has been awhile since the last one dropped but their newest was well worth the wait. Thanks for sending us the heads up in addition to these two beauties released below!

With four smokin’ new tracks this is bound to be the freshest soundtrack to Hamburg’s red light district the Reeperbahn. ‘Brain Rock’ will, without a doubt, get any party, from Harlem to Hamburg and beyond, jumped up in to high gear. And on ‘Worldwide’ Fukkk Offf again teamed up with Hazel for a full on Hip-Hop electro workout. Be on the lookout for a full remix package of ‘Worldwide’ in early 2011.

Purchase the entire album on beatport here!

Goodie from a Rookie: No Love on Friday the 13th

Posted on August 13, 2010 by adam @ aerial noise

I know, I know, this song has been kicking around for a while but its definitely still worth a post on AN. Eminem and Lil Wayne reunite and deliver, dare I say it, a much better double feature, this time mashed up with the classic What is Love by Haddaway. Check it out through the links below, believe this was released around June, but its still damn good today.
