hungover drop



You know how it is. Fight fire with fire.

highbrow



We here at Avenge The Virgins like to keep it oh so classy. Please enjoy this evening's offering, a nice little tribute to the finer things in life. Scattered, weird and awesome.

I've got a dope feature on West Coast beatsmiths Me Gusta coming up, a brand new exclusive tune from the mighty Subvader, and a site redesign that is almost done. Times are a' changing.

Spank Rock- Put that pussy on me (Gloze remix)

Gloze is a Montreal producer who sent us a few of his remixes last week. He has a penchant for ethereal hip-hop beats and hazy electronica. While most of the tunes are really tight, this one fit today's theme the best. Nice little take on one of my favorite tunes.

DJ MikeQ- nuCunt

Ballroom as a scene is starting to get a lot more notice, and I couldn't be happier. Our first Avenge The Virgins mix, mixed by Azamat B, had an extremely heavy ballroom/vogue influence, and I'm definitely a fan of anything remotely ballroom-minded. This particular one, premiered by The Fader, is off of MikeQ's debut on Fade to Mind, Kingdom's new label. nuCunt is a next level sexed-up banger of a tune.

DJ Fresh & DJ Jay Hood- Ass Ass

Weirdly enough, the start of my obsession with electronic music was during the start of the Baltimore Club & Baile Funk wave 6-7 years ago. I therefore have a huge weakness for raunchy repetitive club music with a lot of bass. This one is serioussssss.


much love, amigos.

Back to the Basics : Masta Ace


Gonna make this one quick.

Masta Ace, from Brooklyn, NY, is considered to be one of the most talented emcees of our time. His story telling skills & amazing flow have earned him great respect among his peers. Often quoted as an influential rapper, Eminem is one of the many who mentioned how much he admired Masta Ace. Disposable Arts was released in 2001 and is filled with classics. Here's 3 of my favorites.

"Acknowledge" is one of my top Masta joints, cant get enough of it. The instrumental, sampling classic music and Guru's voice, is right on point. NYC hiphop ftw

Masta Ace - Acknowledge

Masta Ace - Unfriendly Game

Masta Ace - Alphabet Soup

Peace,

ride or die



Ironing out the kinks in this here blog. Winter is coming, which means that I'll have a lot more time to devote to actual features, instead of our practice of dropping clusters of songs, which seems to be our raison d'être these days.

In the meantime, more of the status quo. You know you love it.

Glass Figure- Rough Trax

Top quality Parisian house music. 303 vibes for the whole family.

Mazzy Star- Fade into You

Ah, of course. Vaguely depressing music, just in time for the first snowfall. For all of my constant praise of Montreal, my dislike of our winters runs deep.

Azealia Banks ft 77Klash- P-U-S-S-Y (Machinedrum remix)

A stellar meeting of some of New York's finest young talent. Azealia brings a heavy dose of her signature gattling gun glamour, 77klash peppers in a bit of his dancehall chatting and Machinedrum mixes it all together with his smooth futuresex vibes. All in all, a fanstastic
collaboration.

Young L & Soulja Boy- All Gold Everything

Regal swag.

bonsoir,

Sinjin Hawke- The Lights EP



Remember back in September when I announced that Sinjin Hawke would be releasing his debut EP on the terrific Belgian label Pelican Fly?

Well, the preview dropped yesterday, and it's everything we anticipated and more. The Lights EP (FLY005) is an 8 track opus that is sure to tear the game up as soon as it drops.

He sent it to me 2 weeks ago, and I couldn't wait for the opportunity to share this amazing release with you guys. The soundcloud preview that Pelican Fly uploaded plunges us head-first into the mind of this Canadian expat, now currently living in Barcelona. His debut EP features some of the dopest club music of 2011.

From otherwordly subwoofer-exploding anthems, to memorable synth crescendos, to spoken-word serenades, The Lights has a bit of something for everyone. From what I can ascertain, the reaction to the preview is already overwhelmingly positive, and I'm sure that many of Sinjin Hawke's new tunes will be rinsed thoroughly by DJs for months to come.

In short, this is a phenomenal debut from one of the most promising young producers in dance music. P-p-p-pelican Fly.

Sinjin Hawke - The Lights EP (FLY005) by pelicanfly

The Lights EP will drop on the 5th of December on all online music outlets worth a damn. Be sure to cop it, and support great music.

See you tomorrow for the return of the Laid Back Sunday series.

Much love!
