The raging, gritty side of LA
My friends over at Binary have it too good over in LA. They've created a DJ collective that is scoring major points for the west coast and forcing other parts of the country to step up their own game in the party-starting industry. Next up from them is a set of tracks from LexiconDon. His name is Alex Koons, and while he's originally from Seattle, is now transplanted into LA and Binary has taken notice after he transformed his sound from hip-hop to synth-pop.
Good move IMO. His vocals will remind you of a certain lead singer from The Cure... and his tracks are filled with that dreamy high end and crunchy lows that we all love so much. You should thank On Off On and Fabian as they lent their helping hand in production.
LexiconDon - Dance Floor Affair | download /bitchen highly recommends
LexiconDon - Nothing's On The TV (Turn The Radio On) | download
The Kids Are RADIOACTIVE - Higher feat. LexiconDon | download
As a bonus, are a few new tracks from Fabian. As I mentioned previously, the kids at Binary have taken hold to the Aussie canibalistic-remix method... remixing each other to their heart's content.

Chitown vs Worst Time Zone Ever
The Cubs are tanking, and getting absolutely murdered by the Dodgers. That been putting a lot of stress on not only me, but the whole effin' city. Fans are up in arms, the players failed to show up, the curse might actually excist... I mean total anarchy!!
So what do we do? Go win 2 in LA and then come back to win game 5? It's happened before, but its not likely. I think the best way to resolve this is for everyone to just caaaaaaaaalm down. The city, fans, and media have put waay too much pressure on the Cubs, and it's not gonna work by forcing these last 100 years on the team. Just let it go, embrace the game, and let the chips fall where they may.
So here are a group of tracks from collected Chicago and LA based artists/DJs/producers. If these tracks do nothing more than distract you from the embarassing team that has taken the field the last two nights, then cherish it. Anything is better than the last two ball games.

Mp3: A-Trak - Say Whoa (Big Na$ty Remix) (mp3) [LA based Big Na$ty continues improving on his mastery of house breaks, shells out another legit dancefloor banger, remember he already gave 2Pac some posthumous love]
Alternative content
Mp3: The Chemical Brothers - Believe (Mr Mike Weez FeeFiFoFum Remix) (mp3) [Chicago takes a swing back with Mr Mike Weez and his own dancefloor rendition off The Chemical Bros 2005 wax]
Alternative content
Mp3: Rockland - You Can't Stop Californi-Yee (mp3) [A new bloke fron San Fernando is influenced a bit more by the 90's rave sounds, but still able to spin in heavy contemporary house glitches]
Alternative content
Mp3: JDP - Release (mp3) [if you missed the Starters DJs remix of JDP's "Styrofoam Cups"... then you suck, so here's his newest release (no pun intended). Again, I know dick when it comes to hip hop, but if it sounds good, it sounds good. And this ish sounds good]
Alternative content
Mp3: Stereoheroes - Midnight Sons (feat. Teen Wolf) (mp3) [Vegas based Teen Wolf was kind enough to send his mix of Love Lockdown (which you'll still be able to find on the blogs) but I personally just cannot stand the original, so I politely declined. But I'm more than glad to post a collab he did with Stereoheroes]
Alternative content
Mp3: Matt & Kim - It's A Fact (Mano Remix feat Hollywood Holt) (mp3) [ummm... really dont need to say much about this as it's been out a while. BTW, did anyone see the show on Monday? I missed it and am kinda pissed]
Alternative content
Mp3: NightWaves - Even Money (mp3) [i think this song might've been rejected as the romatic interlude piece in Beverly Hills Cop III. Looking forward to Nightwaves refining their Future Disco sounds into something of the likes of Moulinex and Futurecop!]
Alternative content
Mp3: The Hood Internet - Tambourine Reckoning (mp3) [might as well ensure a victory for Chicago in this little cross-country battle by throwing in mash-up masters STV SLV and ABX from The Hood Internet. With a catalogue of well over 200 mash-ups its hard to pick just one track, so I'll play the lazy card and go with something straight from the player]
