Boxon Records is Gonna Make Your Ears Bleed

Boxon Records is a French label I've loved for some time now. With a collective of artists including Gooseflesh, Tom Deluxx, Dilemn, Eclier, The Boomzers, Costello and remixers including Toxic Avenger, Les Petits Pilous, Cyberpunkers, Belzebass, Saint Pauli, aUtOdiDakT and many others, it is easy to see why this Bordeaux based label holds a special place in my heart.
However, over the past few months, with a the string of great releases, Boxon Recs has popped up on my radar as one of the most interesting and exciting music label around. Dilemn's Better Worlds LP is at the top of my list for BEST ALBUMS of the year. The Boomzers, Rowentah EP is absolutely stuffed full of bangers and T.Raumschmiere's brand new The Rave is On EP is no different. If you aren't yet acquainted with Boxon or you're just excited to see what the future holds for the label, please check out the following.

Makes Me Bloody is the third compilation album from Boxon Records. They brought it hard with 1 & 2 but 3 is lining up to be an absolute stomper. A number of previews and teaser videos are out already. You can check out a few linked through the tracklist below. And you can swing by Boxon's webpage for a full preview of their upcoming compilation. Also, I highly recommend that you check out The Zombie Kids teaser video, below the tracklist. It is definitely the best teaser video I have seen since Q.G.'s zombie rave or Huoratron's Corporate Occult madness from Cedric Blaisbios. Watch the video teaser by Hugo Cos for The Zombie Kids' new track L'Ecole here.
Cover Art By: Matthieu Lauret
Tracklist:
1) Y - Hello Bye Bye (Costello Remix)
2) The Zombie Kids - L’Ecole featuring Moi
3) Super Commodore - Busy
4) Gloumout - Do You Like
5) The Edge - Jesus
6) BioBlitz - Stereofunk
7) AccessDenied - Intrigant
8) Meisterfackt - Ganesha
9) Dopefish - Rewind

As I said before, Dilemn's new album Better Worlds is easily the best album to come out so far this year. Ed Banger artists promising new LPs like SebastiAn, Justice and Mr. Oizo will have their work cut out for them if they are hoping to dethrone Dilemn's masterpiece debut LP from top spot at album of the year. The album has elements of Electro, House and Dubstep/Electrostep that come together to to produce 52 minutes of bangin' beats. The album is so diverse it's really hard to describe without going track by track but roughly it sounds like Daft Punk meets Toxic Avenger meets Skrillex with a dash of Mr. Oizo and Phantoms Revenge. But you can't compare it to anyone else really. Check out some tracks below and purchase the whole album here.
Tracklist:
01. No More 0:53

Fresh Foolish

Fresh Foolish is a duo from Northern Italy and like many other talented producers from the greater Milan area, Fresh Foolish bangs. This past weekend foolish fresh dropped two tracks that I absolutely love. The first is an original track titled "Awake", I've only heard the preview but it absolutely destroys. "Awake" is coming out soon on Shake Your Ass Records, which probably means awesome remixes as well, I'm very excited. The second track they recently released is a remix of Asian Trash Boys track "Whisper", which crushes as well. Check out their bio below and keep a very sharp eye on this duo, I expect HUGE things.

Fresh Foolish Bio:

The project Fresh Foolish was created by Emmanuel and Shaki two DJ / Producers from Milan and Bergamo, they comes from different music scenes ranging from Punk / Hardcore music to club fidget-electro, dubstep and maximal. The name FRESH FOOLISH was designed thinking and researching about showed that there was a sound that is distinctly different, having a footprint at the same time fresh, simple and destructive also. 
After playing in some of the best club of Italy for the prestige and beauty, have released their first EP in collaboration with Sophia B (aka A Girl and A Gun) and with remixes of some of the most talented young people emerging from the underground worldwide scene, have signed some excellent remixes, are preparing to launch their second EP directly on CRUX Records, one of the best indie label in the world with monster excellent remixers!

Agitare il tuo Culo/ Shake Your Ass Records Part. 2

It seems that I can't check Shake Your Ass Records' line-up without finding something new and extremely impressive. SYAR's taste for music is consolidated and very, very, very agreeable with our own here at TCHNCRCY Music. This time we won't overload you with too many different acts to follow, but we will definitely show you something that will make you want to punch a nun in the face (that should mean it is good music right?).

WASABI

WASABI KillerKing (PromoVideo2010) from WASABI on Vimeo.

Did you watch the video?? no? OK, do it! and do it loudly. That is just a sneak peak into what his Killer King EP will sound like, sorry no news on when it is actually coming out, but it sounded so sick I couldn't resist (saying it sounds like Kavinsky's angry brother gets only half the idea behind the sound of this preview). Last time I was so pumped by a teaser was when Huoratron put out his Corporate Occult teaser...and that is saying something. Check this Italian fellow out, and follow us or his myspace for more news on this killer EP.

Asian Trash Boy

This kid is from France and I had heard from him a while back, but recently saw his name in SYAR's page so i knew I had to finally put this guy up here... it has been long enough. Sure the name is interesting, but FUCK does he deliver where it counts. Very hard, fast and dirty. He has actually worked before with different labels (Erase records and others), but recently collaborated with SYAR through a remix of the well known track Broken Symphony by Belzebass and the 'S'.

Asian Trash Boy-Wanc (Original Mix)********Epic, enough said. (trying to Google this track lead to very unexpected results, some might want to turn on the filter).
Asian Trash Boy-Bring That Bass (IKKI Remix)(IKKI is also listed in SYAR's page)
Asian Trash Boy-Whisper***
Asian Trash Boy-Intro****(Yes, I believe that was Star Wars music right there)

The Boomzers

Yet again, MORE people from Italy that just happen to make awesome music. The Boomzers are no exception, and I recommend them to you. Also, very important is that SYAR newest production after The Mastertron's Fat Man EP (glorious) and the above mentioned Broken Symphony EP (also in a warm place in a little chest in my heart) will be an EP by the 'S' titled Legend (check our previous post on SYAR if you got curious HERE). The Boomzers do a sick remix for SYAR's newest project. Check it out below it is REALLY HARD!!:
The "S" - Legend (The Boomzers Rmx) by The Boomzers

We will keep you posted on the upcoming Boomzers EP WTF! featuring Haezer, IKKI, Aerotronic and many more on Crux Records (released on Aug. 3rd). It sounds like something we will want to get our hands on as soon as possible. Check their Soundcloud because you know you want more.

Bonus: Mr. Wonk

Mr. Wonk from Texas has some very very solid tracks. Below are two tracks that are very impressive, specially the Broken Symphony remix, which shines among all the great versions of this track. SYAR does not cease to amaze.
Mr. Wonk- Headbanger by Mr. Wonk

More Music For Your Personal Edification: Paranoiak Records

Paranoiak is a relatively new French record label based in Dijon. The record company only has a few releases under its belt, but they are three EPs you have to check out. With all the disappointment that the French team's disqualification from the World Cup might have caused, this is the perfect medicine to boost up that French morale. In my humble opinion, Paranoiak's equivalent to Franck Ribéry would be the French duo The Blisters Boyz . They came up briefly on a previous post, in which they were slightly overlooked, but here we amend that mistake and give you a closer look at this label.

The Blisters Boyz put up their fist EP on Paranoiak a couple months ago, it sounds so dirty, has such nice (and not extremely done) drops, and enjoys the collaboration of Belzebass, Cyberpunkers and more. How can you go wrong with that? Here are some samples just in case you need more evidence before buying the EP.

The Blisters Boyz-Move To The Beat (Belzebass Remix)****
The Blisters Boyz-Guitar Heroes Part II (IKKI Remix)**

The latest release by the label is Kissed With A Noise's Gypsy Rave EP. Canadian and not as dirty, yet still as good as the Blisters Boyz, give this EP a chance too. Below some samples:

Kissed With A Noise-Bipolar Gypsy
Kissed With A Noise-Fuss (The Blisters Boyz Remix)**

And to finish it, also check out Paranoiak Records very first release: Humdrum EP by Star Guitar (Belgium). Guess what? The Blister Boyz were there from the beginning making sick tracks dirtier, grimier and straight bangers.

Star Guitar-Bivalency
Star Guitar-Humdrum (The Blisters Boyz Remix)**




All three EPs can be purchased here in full quality.

Owl Vision's New Darkmix

Looking for something dark? Like midnight in the back of dive bar with the lights out dark? Like the place you go at the end of that night with that hot girl that's wearing too much make up, tasting like whiskey and sex dark? Well I've got some heavy music by the way of Sweden 's Owl Vision just for you. If you don't already know, Owl Vision dropped a full LP called Leprozy a bit back, unsigned no less, that features some heavy beats, specifically "Darkness". You can pick it up below along with a great remix by Distrakt below, and if you like 'em check the album teaser (And buy that shit!). You might as well check his ill remix of swedish sweetheart Miss Li's "Ba ba ba" while you're at it. But that's not what's new. What's happening is Owl Vision just dropped a brand spanking new mix that is just full of graciously hard drops and distortion. Proxy, The Bloody Beetroots, Huoratron. You name it, it's there. Love the Belzebass remix of Owl Vision's "Fucking Ill" at minute 25. So grab the mix and get evil. (Tracklist after the Jump)

Agitare il tuo Culo/ Shake Your Ass Records

by Space Cadet & Mnuel

Shake Your Ass Records from Bergamo Italy (or LA/Milan?) is a label you have to keep your eyes on. Launched early in 2010 this new label (dare I say underground?) has gathered an arsenal of artists (some overlapping with the collective SideChain Massacre) from Northern Italy. If I could live anywhere in the world right now based on the music scene it would be Milan. This city and the 100 Mile area of Northern Italy surrounding the city has produced or hosted a list of artist including The Bloody Beetroots, Crookers, Gigi Barroco, Blatta & Inesha, and Cyberpunkers. Sidechain Massacre and all the artist in this post call Milan and it's surrounding cities home, except of course for East LA Favorites KRFTKDS. Check out the new North Italian producers Shake Your Ass records is bringing North America and the rest of the world, whose epic sound makes me wonder... could this be an Ed Banger-like phenomenon?

These are a few highlights from this label that has so many talented artists it is hard no to put up something from each.

*(beware this is a long post but every act is absolutely worth your time):

KRFTKDS

These east-LA based producers have been terrorizing California and whoever lucky enough to have visited their myspace for little under a year. Perhaps they are crafty in the way they make their music (we are left to wonder where the name comes from), but the one thing that is certain is that their tracks deliver, these kids put Ableton to work.

KRFTKDS & SlayerTrash-Party Call***

KRFTKDS-Pow!**

KRFTKDS-Pinapple Express

KRFTKDS-Hey Yo Come On (Original)

Belzebass feat. The "S" - Broken Synphony (KRFTKDS RMX)*

Gerruzz

The underground Italian DJ/Producer caught my attention with his remix of the 16-bit classic SFII; however, it was not until I heard his tribute to dAta that I realized how good of a producer this guy could be. Check out these tracks and then give his new Sonata a listen on myspace:

Gerruzz-Ho Visto Il Suo Vero Volto (DatA Tribute)*
Belzebass-Jumping by Myself (Gerruzz Remix)

Belzebass

Mr. K and Splatta Boy (check out his shit too if you are 8-bit curious) are two Italian producers not afraid to grab any song that comes their way and make it their own. From the Offspring to Cyberpunkers and from Slipknot to a cover of Lady Gaga, it is really hard to know what to expect from Belzebass, except of course for sick tracks. Check out Toccata e Figa bound to be part of your Halloween mix...if you must have one.

Eternal September- Just Dance (Cover) (Belzebass Remix)**

Belzebass- Toccata e Figa (Horror mix)

Belzebass - Powerchord

Belzebass feat. The "S" - Broken Synphony (Origninal Mix)*

Pelussje (la Pareja)

Masked DJs/Producers from Italy? How can you go wrong with that right? Well Pellusje definitely lives up the standards. Moonie and James Nayler are one of the more impressive duos I have heard from Italy in a while, and their remix of New Noise by Refused demonstrates they have the potential to reach a similar level to the Beetroots and Blatta & Inesha (big statement). French DJs/Producers should expect some heavy competition from their neighbors to the South.

The Mastertrons

When most people think of Verona, they're probably more likely to recall the setting of William Shakespeare's infamous play "Romeo and Juliet" than think of the bangin' Veronesi The Mastertrons. Hopefully this post will rectify that and insure that The Mastertrons are the only duo from Verona that you remember, no silly Capulets or Montagues. Formed in the Summer of 2009, The Mastertrons have been producing and DJ together for less than a year yet they have put out some strait bangers. Check out their new track Fat Man, it is huge and it will be featured on their EP "Fat Man" released on the one and only Shake Your Ass Records. Also keep an eye out for their forthcoming EP "Revenge is Coming" which will be released on July 29th. The Mastertrons themselves provided the track-list for the Revenge is Coming EP below, I'm very excited for this release, thanks boys.

The Mastertrons - Fat Man**

The Mastertrons - Gardaland is Destroyed

Bass Kleph & Stellar MC - Spend My Money (The Mastertrons Remix)

The 'S'

The "S" is another filthy Bergamo Duo made up of Bizzo and Alvino. These Northern Italians are part of our favorite electro crew Sidechain Massacre. Alvino also does photography and has done shoots for the Sidechain crew including Belzebass and Pelussje. Check out some of Alvino's Photos here, I especially like his photos of Pelussje (one is included for the Pelussje section of this post). Check a bangin remix of Belzebass and a Girl and A Gun's song Neanderthal which I absolutely adore, as well as The "S" cover of The Swedish House Mafia and Laidback Luke track Leave the World Behind, "Leave the World Forward" which ads some much needed variety and flavor to an original track which is good but is sort of a repetitive rave anthem to me. Also, their remix of Afrika Bamabaataa is really good. Really you should listen to every track on their Soundcloud as they are all huge and grab my favorite original track of theirs, "Good Bye Olive" below.

The "S" - Good Bye Olive

DONT CLICK ON THIS by THE "S"

Razmasa

Splitting his time between Milan and Los Angeles, I imagine Razmasa along with KRFTKDS will play a large role in being the face of Shake Your Ass Records in North America. If you are in any way disappointed by that fact then check out the track "Shake" by Razmasa or his colab with Belzebass "My Nigghas" and turn that frown upside-down. Enjoy!

Razmasa - Shake**
