Technocracy Ten Tracks Pt. 2

What's crackin' people? So the weekend is starting and I am finally continuing the Technocracy Ten with another ten tracks from the past.....I guess three weeks. I know, I know. There has been a lack of posting which we are attempting to remedy. And so here are ten epic songs to get your party started right. Some big names and some that you might not have checked out, but all huge songs you should have blasting out your speakers. Enjoy and get dancing.

Realboy - Robo Mouse (320 kbps)***
-L.A.'s Realboy bring it hard and fast, just the way you like it. Heavy hitter right here for sure.

Vibromaster - Bollywood (Original Mix) (320 kbps)
-Can't put up some tracks with some heavy dub-step. Enjoy the two step wobbles.

Oh Land - Sun of a Gun (Yuksek Remix) (320 kbps)
-Yuksek proves he can still spin gold out of anything with this sick down-tempo track. The vocal mods are too epic for me to not love on it.

Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand (Fare Soldi - Duck Soldi Remix) (320 kbps)***
-The original of this song came out and it's been getting a lot of hype, so here's Fare Soldi's touch on the song. The beginning of this song is a bit on the edge of wackness, but give it till 1:30 when it cuts into what I think is the best house remix of Barbra Streisand out today and you'll forget about the weird piano guitar intro.

Kissy Sell Out - Joanna (Extended Original) (320 kbps)***
-Extended track of an excellently built piece of music. The bleep stepping he's got at 1:27 is impossible to get out your head, but in a good way.

Acid Washed - Acid Washed (Danger Remix) (192 kbps)
-New Danger = Good Danger

Urchins - Drag On (Original Mix) (192 kbps)
-Just Hard Electro pure and simple. Lovely.

Afrojack Ft. Eva Simons - Take Over Control (Adam F Remix) (192 kbps)****
-Afrojack's original is good, this remix is better.

Haezer - James Bond (320 kbps)********
-Who the fuck is Haezer? If you don't know, learn now and grip this track. By far my favorite up here.

Au Revoir Simone - Only You Can Make You Happy (Punches Remix) (320 kbps)
-This is such a chill track that if you get a chance to play it in the sun you'll feel like a goddamn movie star. Housy with great vocal samples you can't miss.

This is the Drop!


A lot of stuff is going on and I haven't had the chance to do a proper post for about a week now. I apologize but I've been incredibly distracted from the cause. But this isn't about me. It's about you and the music. So to make up for it, here are 10 songs that have been on repeat for me for the past few weeks that you may not have had the chance to come across. They aren't all new, but they're all damn good. I have a bunch of music to listen through and will be back with best shortly. In the mean time, enjoy.

J.O.B ft Anjulie (with MadV & 12th Planet) - Warrior (LA Riots Remix) (320 kbps)***
-Heavy with a great sample

Breakdown, Whiskey Pete & Stellar MC - Ice Cream (Hoaxx Dirty Disco Mix) (320 kbps)*****
-Fucking hard party music

Dada Life - Let's Get Bleeped Tonight (Don Rimini Still Skill Kill Remix) (320 kbps)****
- Don Rimini takes the chill out of the song and replaces it with pure energy

Doctor P - Chicago Mobster Dance (feat DJ SOLO) (320 kbps)
-Funny rap lyrics with beat courtesy of bass heavy Doctor P's "Rasputins Gold"

Religion - Girl Next Door (320 kbps)***
- Dirty, dirty, dirty.

Kelly Rowland feat David Guetta - Commander (Afrojack & Bobby Burns One Touch Bootleg) (320 kbps)
- Afrojack doing what he does best, get's great around 2:18

Mashed Paper Klub - Deus Ex Machina (192 kbps)
-This is thrasher electro! HARD

Capsule - Hello (The Hair Kid Remix) (320 kbps)
-Great summer jam

Hoodie Allen - You Are Not A Robot (feat. Marina & The Diamonds) (256 kbps)
- Ill hip-hop off a Chiddy Bang style kick (Stick through the beginning sample till the beat drops in)

The Marvelettes - Please Mr. Postman (Cragga Remix) (320 kbps)***
-Dubby!

Afrojacked

I'm not going to lie, I was not a fan of Dutch DJ and Producer Afrojack for a long time. He has popped up everywhere making a ton of music in the process, most of which ends up being slobbered all over by every major blog across the board. It seemed like I can't go a week without seeing some new Afrojack remix being touted as the big next thing and, personally, I was always underwhelmed. A fair share of his stuff is just not my style. But I feel I've been too hard on Afrojack. Homie is a damn good producer, his builds are epically well constructed, and some of the tracks he creates sparkle like a god-damn diamond.

If you think you don't like Afrojack then the tracks below are specifically designed to make you change your mind. He's put out so much music, a lot of which I got turned off by, it can be easy to write him off. DON'T. Here are the cliff notes. Definitely listen to the No Beef set rip he did with Dim Mak mogul Aoki, and listen all the way through. The end is what changed my mind.

If you do like Afrojack, then you should catch him down at EDC in L.A. at the end of June. He'll be rocking the Kinetic Field stage after his Dutch amigo Laidback Luke. And if you love electronic music at all then do yourself and check out EDC's lineup; definitely worth a trip to L.A.


Afrojack - Bangduck (Original Mix) (320 kbps)
Afrojack & Steve Aoki - No Beef (HQ Rip) (320 kbps)
Lady Gaga - Alejandro (Afrojack Remix) (320 kbps)
Jason Derulo - Whatcha Say (Afrojack Remix) (320 kbps) (I know, I know. Actually the best remix of the song I've heard.)
Afrojack - Real High (PeaceTreaty Sierra Neveda Remix) (320 kbps)
