Just in time for the drunken holiday parties Ultra Music & Dim Mak unleashed ‘Ladi Dadi (Part II)’ from Steve Aoki featuring Wynter Gordon. ‘Ladi Dadi (Part II)’ is a blazing dance floor track. Says Aoki, “I wrote a whole new dubstep drop that is dirty and simply nutty. Starts off with the four on the floor leading you into the heavy bass chorus then right into the vocal hook and does it all over again.” After listening to this track, its sexy vocals and heavy drop will instantly get you dancing. You’ll be seeing the new and improved Ladi Dadi rise on the Beatport charts in the days to come – it’s defiantly worth a listen if not a download. Enjoy!
The three insanely talented Boulder boys have done it again. Robotic Pirate Monkey also known as RPM recently released Colors in Disguise, which has a full range of tracks that demonstrates their full (and ever-developing) spectrum of musical taste. The album features some chiller more laid back dub and a couple serious head bangers. The boys have created three other albums that tote some classic remixes but in my opinion, none compare to this one. We’ve included Sidetracked, Jungle Tales, and Disturbing Pleasant Streets below as well as an interview we did with them in the past that you can check out by clicking HERE. Why go the drug road, when you can Download? EnJOY!
“Moogfest is an annual event which honors the remarkable vision of Robert Moog and his amazing inventions that changed the course of music.” So finally here’s a festival where it really all started! This years Moogfest, located in the beautiful, historic, downtown area of Asheville, North Carolina is filled with a variety of electronic music pioneers, contemporary groundbreaking artists and young upstarts who are also pushing musical boundaries. If the range of different artists in 2011 doesn’t keep you amused you have the opportunity to participate in workshops, engage with the musicians in panel discussions, enjoy visual art exhibitions, installations or film screenings. Make sure you rep your favorite music blog by picking up one of our new tanks! Check them out HERE.
Check out Robotic Pirate Monkey’s new summer tour promo which features the talented boys at The Bluebird Theater in Denver, CO & The Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO. The video debutes a brand new track called “Rio de Fuego” and will be the single off their album dropping this fall. Also peep the interview we did with RPM HERE.
The PB&J™ crew and I are huge fans of the three man group Robotic Pirate Monkey consisting of Andrew Hathaway, Matt Berryhill, and Matt Flesher. We’ve been keeping tabs on these guys since the early days of Hathbanger.com + Boulder Beats…now as they continue to crush shows out west and put their own trademarked spin on electronic music – we figured you all should get to know the trio as they won’t be going away anytime soon. I had the pleasure of getting a chance to interview the boys over the weekend and here is what I found out about the talented group.
Check out their website and see where RPM is going to play next!
We know you guys are based out of Colorado but how did you three come together and start RPM?
Skiing is our common tie that brought us all out to Colorado, I knew Hath from skiing out east and Berry grew up skiing in Cali. Once at University of Colorado we all started DJing and eventually producing. We were all on the same level as far as production and seemed to have a taste for the same type of music so it just came naturally.
How would you describe your particular sound and what makes you different then other DJ groups?
I think as far as our live performance is concerned we try push the boundaries of how we are performing our productions and that creates a unique sound characteristic to RPM. We are constantly exploring new options of how to recreate the music we produce in a live setting and have it be unique each time. As far as our studio work I think our sound differs from the rest because you cant really fit it into a genre. We do make some Dubstep tunes and some glitch hop tunes, but a lot of music is around 100 bpm and really doesn’t fit into any of those genres you might see on a beatport dropdown menu.
You guys are blowing up and have been progressing fast. How is the new come fame?
Well thank you! I really haven’t began to think of us as famous yet but it is great to see our music reaching where it has.
You have done some quality remixes of The Expendables, Bob Marley, Pretty Lights, Miike Snow, and even Dolly Parton, what makes you pick those particular songs?
No method of how we pick the music we do to remix. It usually happens randomly, like i’ll be in the car and hear a song and be inspired to rush home to a computer to start messing around.
Just curious, If RPM could play at any festival in the world, which ones would be on your top 3 and who would you want to play with?
Electric Forest, Burning Man, ReGen ….and with STS9
You’re fan base is growing larger every day, any crazy fan stories yet?
At the end of our last show at the Bluebird Theater in Denver a fan begged Berryhill for his sweaty nasty shirt till he gave it to him…
What is your goal for the future of RPM?
Keep making music and growing. It would be sick to do an international tour someday.
Thanks Guys!
Download all three of their EPs below and be sure to peep the video of RPM in action!
Welcome to Ladies Night! These down-loadable tracks are not going to make you want to sit back and relax, they’re not in the Top 40 but they will get you pumped for the night and/or make you jam out in your car. I got some Moombahton with some sexy vocals and a few tracks from Project Aspect that recently dropped. Enjoy kids.
Holy Dub Day turns 10 this week! Happy birthday to this holy day. Hope your weekends were filled with some friendly summer fun and maybe even EDC Vegas (you lucky bastards whoever got the chance to go). Honestly I am a little tired from not having a real job and partying my summer away so this will be quick. The entire playlist is awesome so just download it and check out Skrillex’s music video from his past eight months of touring. Did you hear he got a PB&J™ tattoo? So sick.
Hello my little music lovers, oh how I have missed you crazy kids. I apologize for the absence of the Holy Dub Day, but I hope you have been celebrating the holiest of days without me. I have been preoccupied with the crazy collection of summer festivals instead of being on my laptop downloading some heavy and dirty tunes for you guys. But don’t worry, Izzy is back to play and here to stay. I have found some grimy beats for you guys from artists that include two of my personal favorites, Skrillex and Diplo. Keep coming back to the place that supplies you the best of the best.
Since I am now fully recovered from The 13th Annual Starscape Festival I have decided to give you a review of my experience in Baltimore. Let me start off with a must read quote by the living legend, Moby.
“DJ’s take the infinite catalog of music that exists in the world and help to translate it via their creative lens. They find music that we can’t. They introduce us to music we’d never know. They take us places we’d never have otherwise gone. Professional DJs are amazingly creative people who have taken what is a hobby for most of us and turned it into a profession and, better yet, a craft.” – Moby
Starscape is a unique festy run by our friends at STEEZ Promo which attracts a ton of people from all over the world…I met new people from far away places like New Zealand & California, but also saw old friends and fellow Baltimorians like myself. The positive energy and lineup showed enormous promise for an unforgettable experience. There were high spirits throughout the crowd and the lineups fed the belly of the beast.
I am currently in the process of my finals week, but fortunately was able to slip away and attend the Electric Daisy Carnival in Orlando, Florida. Whoever got the chance to go…you and I both know that it was a crazy ass time. We got to experience an epic lineup and an even crazier thunderstorm that completely stopped the festival and made people cram into porta potties. After about thirty minutes of chanting “RAIN OR SHINE” the festival ensued and the rain began to stop. We experienced history children.
I have a a collection of photos and videos from the event and since I am so nice I decided to share some with you.
I usually hook you kids up with a pretty big collection of dub on this holy day, but I decided to find you a semi- small assortment of intelligent songs that have recently hit the web. Panda Bear, Skrillex, Mt Eden, and even Korn are all here for your downloading pleasure. This playlist ranges from the grimiest drops to some smooth dub to fit everyone’s needs. I hope you partied hard this weekend and were able to not get arrested.
What could be better than going to sleep at a concert and waking up to a concert? Yes, you might be a little bit dirty but that’s the least of your worries because the Disco Buscuits are up next and you need to start gearing up for Skrillex, Shpongle, MSTRKRFT, Pretty Lights, Rusko, Bassnectar, Dillon Francis, Wolfgang, Lotus, Cut Copy and so much more. Where is this magical place and is it real? YES, my little music whores this place is real. It’s called Camp Biscoand it’s located on a beautiful farm in Mariaville, NY. It was one of my favorite times last summer and somehow this year’s epic lineup managed to slip by me.
“Camp Bisco Ten will feature 3 days and 3 nights of music on 5 stages, including 2 side-by-side MAIN STAGES, two afternoon and late night DANCE TENTS featuring top international Dance acts, a SILENT DISCO and an UP & COMING stage. “
Originally from Stockholm and currently residing in London, Johan (better known as Blende) has been described as one of the most exciting new acts in the electo house scene. He has aspirations of coming back to the US to play some major shows soon, but in the meantime he has pushed his boundaries as a remixer, [...]
While rising talent Pierce Fulton isn’t attending class, there’s a good chance he’s probably in the studio recording his next release or touring the nation— who else can say that?! Having just been announced on the second phase of Ultra Music Festival, Pierce has quite the upcoming lineup with SnowBall 2012 and Electro Beach in Puerto [...]
After effectively dominating 2011, Sunnery James and Ryan Marciano have their sights set high for 2012. As we can all recall, their smash hit ‘Lethal Industry’ was a club favorite along with their bootlegs and extensive remix collection. Just recently, the duo put a big room, electro spin on Ferry Corsten’s latest hit, Ain’t No [...]
I first stumbled across Ulrik and Ketil, the two creative minds behind Lemâitre, last summer completely by accident. I know what you’re thinking (oh cool story, Hansel), but something struck me when I first heard these two from Oslo, Norway months ago. A combination of unique, original vocals with new age synth and creativity. I have [...]
Very pleased to bring you our conversation with the one and only - The Magician.

WOW! What does Dirty South do when everyone starts to get bored of that overused big room, progressive sound? He adds the FATTEST electro bass line with the most resounding synths. Miike Snow’s latest single ‘Devil’s Work’ serves as the canvas for Dragan‘s most recent production of epic proportions. I nearly spit my breakfast out when [...]
Aired at 3 AM last night, many fans may have missed Arty‘s BBC 1 Essential Mix last night. If you’re a first time listener of Arty or a close friend of his, you don’t want to miss this mix. He’s a huge talent coming out of Russia and his music has already gained the support of Armin [...]

P-P-Pete Tong. BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix here for you PB&Jammers. An amazing 2 hour long mix from AN21 and Max Vangeli. You know ‘em.

This one’s from Creamfields back in August of this year but I just came across it a few days ago and I’ve been kicking myself for that ever since. I’ve seen Jack Beats twice now at Hard Haunted Mansion in 2010 and again at Coachella earlier this year and they always throw down a festival [...]
