Hello all.

Service this past week has been shitty… the next week looks like it will be crap as well. Pimpin’ ain’t easy.

I’ll try to queue up some fun content while I do some globe trotting :)

Follow my twitter at www.twitter.com/sheynk for updates.

To make up for that here is a dope mix by the legendary KGBeats for your ear orgasmic pleasure:

Happy July 17th people! It isn’t a national holiday, but that does not mean we should not celebrate a mid summer Friday anyway. I thought something groovy and airy will set the mood before you get on your way to your weekend shenanigans…. and what do you know I’m posting early enough for EMEA and NA to get this on their Friday (yes…yes… a rare sight).

This week’s MIUP is about a duo of DJs. Empro and Jozwiak from Berlin rip shit up with this tight mix.

If you were to wake me up in the middle of the night and ask what is the best electronic music album to ever be released… without a moments hesitation I would tell you that its Cosmic Vision by Acos Coolkas. In fact… I am going to venture and say that I doubt that will ever change. Yes it is THAT good.

I’ve recently hit the mother load. Hours upon hours of ear melting amazing sublime spacey sounds.

Enjoy one of the sets:

Have a relaxing Friday with this chilled out mix by Dekay

DEKAY aka Danny Kotz was born in Jerusalem in 1984 and playing jazz piano since he remembers himself.
A former break dancer and a self taught producer whos luckily grew up through the golden age of jerusalem’s underground music scene of the early millennium.

Enjoy!

Hello hello.

Fresh for your weekend listening is this superb mix from Abyss. A bit about the dude:

Amongst the masses of self hyped, facebook-fueled producers that consistently try the shortcut to musical success; there are few who choose to start with such solid foundations as Guiseppe Morabito aka Abyss.

Born in Naples, this Italian Producer turned heads last year with the single “Mind Games” on Ben Watt’s highly acclaimed Buzzin’ Fly Records. Although by no means his first studio output, this mystical and dark mover was a killer record and certainly caught a lot of people’s attention with everyone.

Enjoy!

Aaaannnddd we are back in business with regular updates to your favourite mix finding service :)

This we I bring you Dirt Crew

2004 Dirt Crew aka James Flavour and Break 3000 launched Dirt Crew Recordings after releasing their first EP’s “Cleaning up the Ghetto Part 1+2″ on MBF. The track “Rok Da House” became one of the key records of 2004, the beginning of the Electro House hype and a big hit that gave the guys worldwide recognition on the dancefloors.

This a vacation week for me, I figured something that could be called a “club banger” would suit the mood just fine:

Welcome music lovers (and if you aren’t you will be) to another exciting journey into sound. This week I am featuring riccicomoto. A word (or a few) about the DJ:

……for the last few years i..ve been experimenting with my pc, some sound machines and a 22 year old yamaha organ to create a sound that I try out on non suspecting listeners….up untill now I have had no complaints and no casualties…

Sounds pretty fly to me. What do you think?

Here, as always, to jump start your weekend is Mix it up Friday! Yeah! This week we have an Austrian DJ. Roman Rauch, from Vienna, throws down some interesting tunes going from jazzy to house motiffs  in a stylistically “messy in a good way” mix.

He doesn’t have a cute bio that I can stick in here, so instead here is a wiki link to Vienna. :p

Enjoy!
