ramadanman, droid + slug

Here are two mixes that have been doing a lot for me recently, particularly while trying to get my head right and finish this project I've been working on. Both are pretty chill, good-sized sets that touch on older electronic bits and newish dubstep that doesn't suck.

Darkstar shorty mix

An incredible amount of ground gets covered in this tiny mix by darkstar, of mostly his own productions. In a little over eleven minutes, he runs through a gang of weird glitchy tunes on the moodier, plodding side of the whatever-step spectrum. Dude has some serous studio-ninja type contol over the sound, too. I am reminded of listening to burial's teaser mix for the first time, as you get the sense that this guy has a grip of tunes in this style sitting on a hard drive somewhere, waiting to come out. Let's hope so.

don't have time to write too much, but here are three joints that have been doin' the business..

KARTEL - LIFE SWEET
another sufferer's anthem from the teacher. heavy, heavy hook w/ deep producky. Shouts fly out to 'Russian' on the intro of this one and the next, is this a new producer?

Silver Star have also put a slightly odd refix of this tune over Game's "My Life" beat on their latest mix which is growing on me..

KARTEL - GRAVITY NUH HOLD WE DOWN
Another kartel, on a hustle hard tip, another big chorus and just the right amount of autotune. Has some epic trap-rap style rave bits in their just under the surface.. What!

"Me love thug music but if you nah sing that song / you no sing no song.."

MAVADO - SO BLESSED
What can I say about this tune? For me, stephen's slower, psuedo-rap experiments like 'overcome' have been some of the more exciting tunes of the year. This is another monster in the same vein.
