CHI TOWN REPRESENT

True story: I once got a red crystal-covered hair bow from Kid Sister thrown into the crowd when she played at the U Street Music Hall. This was before DJ HELENATOR and her burlesque superstar bff GIGI HOLIDAY were invited up on stage to juke with the Chi Town legend. Concert win. Oh, FYI: She's Kid Sister because her older bro is Kanye West. Fun fact!

Like MIA, Kid Sister just released an amazing new mixtape: KISS KISS KISS. As far as I'm concerned this is even better than Vicki Leekx. This is really less a mixtape than a full-fledged remix/new album designed to be listened to as one long set. Here are my two favorite tracks:

Green Velvet - Everybody Wants by Hypetrak
Kid Sister - Right Hand Hi (Caspa Remix) by soul-or-system

PART MAN, PART VAN

AT THE HEIGHT OF THE CUSTOM VANNING CRAZE, CHUCK CARDUZZI WAS ON TOP OF THE WORLD.

HE PUT TOGETHER A ROBOT SO HUMAN, YET SO POWERFUL, IT CAN ONLY BE CALLED VANDROID

THEN IT KILLED THE SHIT OUT OF HIM AND STARTED HAVING SEX WITH EVERYTHING

AND THIS IS THE SOUNDTRACK

SANTA, IF YOU GET ME THIS VHS FOR THE XMAS YOU WILL GET 23,987,342 HUGS AND 534,983,457 MILKS AND COOKIES

Vandroid - Master And Slave (Yuksek Remix) by lightson

SUBWOOFER RECOMMENDED

Remember that G6 song I was all over? Turns out the Cataracs have essentially made the same song but with a different hook. Don't care. Still love it. It's dirty. It makes me want to get wasted and wear stretch jeans and dance in ways that might not be legal in some states. I am desperate for this song to get played at one of our parties, but since dancing doesn't happen anymore this might be an awkward, awkward solo venture. Not like I'm unfamiliar with that.

And for fun, here's a random dubsteppy/dnb/club/everything remix.

THE DRUM MACHINES ARE SENTIENT

Pogo is primarily known for his trip-hop video remixes of classic Disney movies (watch this fantastic Alice in Wonderland track). But guess what I stumbled upon? Maybe one of the best remixes of all time. This is made ENTIRELY of samples from Terminator 2, the greatest movie ever made.



Praise be to Pogo. May he deliver unto us more of such masterpieces.

LE ROI DU DUBSTEP

If you have two hours to spare, you need to listen to this. Rusko killed on this Essential Mix back from 2008. As far as I'm concerned he's the current reigning king of dubstep. If you're in DC this weekend you need to see him run it. IN PERSON.

RUSKO LIVE @ U STREET MUSIC HALL THIS SUNDAY

More subbass than you could ever hope to handle. He will break you. He will destroy you. And you'll come out a better fucking person.

If you can't handle two hours (lame) then here's his best known and most awesome single:
