Starting up a new thing here... trying to stay hip with the youngster hashpound lingo (fuuuuck you kids). But each Thursday we'll be resurfacing some of our favorite tracks of the last 8 years of running this blog.
First up is an old favorite, both in original artist and remixer. Originally posted in our bestuvohnein post well over 5 years ago... i think that fits in the throwback category, at least in the blog world where two weeks is already ancient news.
I picked this track because it features La Roux, whom recently released her second studio album, of which I loved, but not as much as her debut which exploded with singles like Bulletproof, In For the Kill, Quicksand, and our title track, I'm Not Your Toy.
On the other side of the track title, Jack Beats was a favorite for much of the later aughts producing remixes in the stylish and trendy jacked house sub genre. It's a look back at how quickly things transition from one like to the next hash.

Kidda Gettin' Down [jackin house]
Got a set of new remixes from Kidda's new remix album (released today (or yesterday pending when i actually finished this post)). All good tracks from some of the top proven jackin' remixers out there. If you remember that insanely good Herve remix of "Under the Sun", then you'll know what to expect with these.

bitchen bestuv [2009]
I missed the bus with a proper countdown of our top tracks and remixes of this year... so instead I'll drop to you all my favorite 'hearted' tracks from hypem this year. Since there's no denying the power of hype machine in moving tracks into (and out of) the popular scene... its normally a good indicator of influential tracks. Especially those that have tickled my fancy for so many hours this year (especially while bored at work).
Also a big thanks out to Clayton for allowing us use of all these great party shots from throughout this great year that was!
Peace bitches... and happy new year!

Majestic Bassline
Holy hell is this some wobbly goodness. Project Bassline takes Majestic's "In The VIP" and mixes their own twist of movement inducing fidget. You might remember PB's debut "Drop The Pressure" got snatched up by none other than Herve and his Cheap Thrills Label... so you know that his second tour will have just as good production value.
For you bitches are the 320 kbs remix and dub versions. Remember to hit up Majestic and his vocal work on myspace and twitter.

Steed Lord + Jack Beats
STEED LORD "NEW CRACK CITY" from STEED LORD on Vimeo.
Steed Lord, the Icelandic-epic-synth-foursome... to help promote their new album Truth Serum (out soon on Beatport), have released a new remix by Jack Beats (Cheap Thrills UK). The track has already seen some steady radio play in the UK... but for everyone else in the world, here we have it. Spread this 'mad-bassliny-wobbly-jackin-house' remix like a virus.
Bonus... check the video for their new single "New Crack City".
