Backburner: ELECTRO

FROM DEPECHE MODE TO DIRTY SOUTH: POP, ROCK, RAP GET MIXED ELECTRO


Right on the heels of the January burn list, I felt it appropriate to post this electrohouse set (from July 2008) which features more rehash of familiar tracks. Ten predominantly 80's pop songs are made timeless in these electrohouse reproductions which are still picking up heat on DJ sets to date (StoneBridge is currently tearing it up with DJ Joe K's "Born Slippy" the way Abel got us all sweating last summer with Dirty South's "Just Can't Get Enough" masterpiece). With the upcoming Winter Music Conference, note-worthy revivals of familiar tracks are all over the blogosphere, global charts and dance floors - this electro set from last year certainly proves how electro rehash tend to keep their kick months after their release. With thumping four-to-the-floor rhythm, drummy and pounding, distorted and shrieking, yet all-the-time uplifting through rather prominent loops of claps and snares - electrohouse, as well as the less vocally-infused dirtyhouse, are making superstars of new DJs while breaking familiar grooves with overpowering, floor-filling tracks which keep you moving til you have to catch your next deeper breath.
