Goon & Koyote just released this video for my remix of “Wellness Is Wild.” This EP is definitely still a favorite of mine. If you missed it, make sure you check it out.
Brand new release from Nightshifters. This is a massive EP and I’m excited to have contributed a remix.
Today Nightshifters releases our latest Ep, and this one is a real explosion of awesome! This time it’s a collaborative effort between two of New York’s Hottest DJ/producers Udachi and Jubilee! AC Slater states “This could easily be the biggest release of 2009. I’ve been playing this in every one of my DJ sets for the past 6 months.” Garnering support from the likes of Tommie Sunshine, Fake Blood, DJ Craze, and Klever, and BBC Radio 1 Airplay on Kissy Sellouts show!
While the two original tracks are simply amazing, the remixes are equally incredible. Nick Catchdubs enlists hot-as-fuck lyricist Kid Daytona to re-construct Paypur into a screwed dirty south styled jam filled with swagger and ready for radio airplay. Venezuela’s Cardopusher cranks the bass to the maxx with his mosh-pit-dubstep remix of the same tune, while Thunderheist’s Grahmzilla flips the vibe into an expansive techno affair ready for your next sunrise session. Breakbeat hardcore legend Luna-C turns Smoke Rings into a dub-bass rave anthem of the next level akin to ‘SL2 on a ragga tip’. And while a rave vibe can also be felt in Dre Skull’s incredible remix, he pushes up the Funky snares and adds a sinister breakdown that’s sure to get shirts flung off the dance floor.
Grab the A-side free of charge.

But please support the full release on Beatport.
Last but not least, check this video for the B-side “Smoke Rings.” Madness.

Starting getting EXTREMELY HYPED, IMMEDIATELY because on October 6, 2009 Juiceboxxx and Dre Skull drop their brand new single and the last of their futuristic disco 12″ trilogy! “Hype” has been a long time coming and features remixes by Sinden and Dre Skull as well as an exclusive digital-only remix from Udachi. The cover art is classic Juice & Dre, all bloody cyborgs and outer space, which is a pretty good indication of the sound of this new monster track. Keep your eye balls peeled for track’s debut, who knows where it will pop up first…
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Rave ain’t dead.
Here’s a bit of a recent news round up.
“Yuh Love” has landed on the Grindin Charts which keeps things three for three with my recent releases (check the previous showings for “Gone Too Far” and “I Want You”). Full chart below.
Meanwhile, “Yuh Love” is also staying in the iTunes Top Reggae songs charts three weeks in and is #2 on the Turntable Lab Best Selling Charts. Across the pond, Sinden has been supporting “Yuh Love” on Kiss FM and Rob Da Bank is following suit on BBC Radio 1. Down in Jamaica, Kartel recently wrapped shooting the “Yuh Love” video which should be done in a few weeks (that’s a video still above).
Also, Bok Bok has just released a white label 12″ with his Dre Skull “I Want You (Bok Bok VIP Dub)” on the A side. That’s the dub of the recent remix he did for Mixpak. Bok Bok & L-Vis 1990 team up for “Wake Up Early” on the flip. Very solid release, grab the white here.
I’m in the studio this week trying to finish the long delayed collaborative EP with New Orleans Bounce MC Gotty Boi Chris. It’s been on the backburner for too long — I think I’ve had these tracks half done for over a year now — but this WILL be released this fall. Stay tuned.

Jamaican superstar Vybz Kartel raises the bar with the Dre Skull produced “Yuh Love,” a poppy dancehall anthem just in time for the end of summer. Kartel gives us his deejay ternt singjay and “Yuh Love” — in which he offers a promise of undying love — acts as the ying to his recent smash hit “Romping Shop’s” yang. Dre Skull keeps the production understated, but infectious. Out now on iTunes.
