I’m pretty picky about my mixes, usually favoring to post individual tracks rather then an hour and a half of bangers. With laptop producing and the insane amount of mixing ability available to everyone, a mix really has to stand out and have some character.
This one does, sent to me a few days ago by CLAKSAARB from the bay area.
CLAKSAARB- Step Once, Think Twice (Live In SF 11-07-09)

Deadmau5 drops a slight re-work of his classic or classics; The Reward is Cheese. If you are new to the greatness of this song this is a good place to get familiar or if you are already a convert here is an update, with a little more noise and complexity.
the reward is more cheese- Deadmau5

Until this point the only Black Holes track I could find was a remix of Hollywood Holt. And I got tired of Hollywood Holt ages ago. (If you are curious click this link). Here we can more fully appreciate the complexity and echoing fidget of Black Holes.
Little Jinder – Polyhedron (Black Holes Remix)

Diplo leaves South America (and the Favella beats he usually uses) alone in this outing which sounds a bit Kissy Sell Out meets Metric with a crazy clapping, strumming and screech of a synth line all supporting the vocal loop which sounds so indy it hurts.
Must be the Devil- Diplo

Remember Zombie Nation? The birth of one of the most infectious and popular dance songs of all time, the “Oh oh oh ooh” that soon spread to be a sports chant? Until this day several of my friends claim the band to be named “Kernkraft 400″ and the song to be “Zombie Nation”. Well here is a newer offering, one of more intelligence and bang.
Zombie Nation – Forza (FUKKK OFFF Remix)
