Another fireeee mix for you on this beautiful Friday.
This mix I’ll be honest, I haven’t even heard the whole thing yet and listening to it now as I put this post together. This Friday’s mix is from a FL resident, Amina.
I’ve been hanging out with a friend for awhile spinning records and just jamming. One of the times we hung out I was telling him about Glitch and he’s like yo I know this one dude you have to totally meet check out this mix while we in the car. I heard the mix and what I heard was exactly what I wanted to do as a DJ. I never caught the dudes name but knew he was in West Palm Beach. Not till recently did I catch wind of this new cat these ppl discovered and how they describe he style as all over the spectrum of music from dubstep, uk funky, glitch, etc… I was like damn someone who drops the glitch, hell yeah!
Last night I find out that the two are one in the same. Without hesitation I present you with this mix! Hoping to meet this guy real soon and hopefully catch one of his sets this week-end!
Four Tet has been quite busy and hard at work this year. Earlier this year he had great sucess with the 12″ release with Burial. It sold out within the first day it was released. Just this past week he released a solo 12″ EP, Love Cry. Now word is that at the end of the month another 12″ will be released, Love Cry Remixes.
The big news though is that Four Tet plans to release a new LP. This might be a great start of releases in 2010. There Is Love In You, looks to be released on January 25th 2010.
We all know about the epic Fabric Live mixes we’ve come to love. The series of mixes has taken the best of all the genres and put together something special. It looks like the Fabric label is looking to expand into actual CD releases now.
This may be the first of the last but from the looks of it I wouldn’t count on that. The first CD they are sticking to the 140bpm bangers! Tons of unreleased stuff that too be honest I haven’t even heard most of these. From glancing over who the producers are though I don’t expect I’ll be disappointed.
One thing that has really excited me about this releases is that we’ll most likely see it come out on wax!

The Fire Friday Mix this week comes from Mihkal! Nothing but respect for him and this mix. This might be the best mix on site in my opinion right now.
Alright I take serious pride in finding music. Right now my main consintration is Glitch and Glitch Hop. Too be honest theirs a lot of stella tracks out there and some ehh. This mix is comprised of some of my FAVORITE tracks in the genre. When I saw the tracklist my jaw dropped. Mihkal is a legend for this mix. It has instantely become my favorite mix of the past couple months. The best part is that this was done live at Symbosis this past year.
I can not imagine the emotion and feel that must of been going on while each track slipped off the speakers. Mihkal thank you! I will make it a point to catch you live as soon as I can. This one is one for the books!

Today a close friend of mine were talking. I was recently invited into her music group. She told me about this site Grooveshark and how I should totally check it out.
WHOA!
Imagine Pandora + Last.FM on crack! They have an extensive library of artist and you can listen to everything for free! Not to mention que up songs, move around in the track, play how many times you want, build playlist, favorite stuff, have followers, etc…
I’m thrilled to have been recommended this. Another huge plus about the service is that it’s developed by a company in Florida. Three UF graduates started it up and have made it grow tremendously.
I highly advise anyone really into music to check the site out! Fan me on there too: afromonk
Lazer Sword is Low Limit & Lando Kal. I’ve posted up one of their mixes awhile back but these guys just don’t stop.
They are on a Tour of Europe right now. They’ve put together a short mix for Fabric. This promo has some serious beats dropping. They’ve also recently released a 12″ of their track Gucci Sweater. These guys cover all their grounds when it comes to styles.
These guys sound like Nintendo mashed up with dubstep and some glitch for some spice. Be sure to keep a look out for this duo. Please and I mean please don’t get these guys confused with Major Lazer.
Hope you enjoy this Fabric Promo as much as I have.
Pretty Lights is a SHOW. When I mean show I mean these guys are one of those few names in the business that do their sets live. He’s not just a DJ he rocks mad hardware and shows off literally pretty lights as he preforms with laptop, MPD, & Monome. Pretty Lights also consist of live drums. The full combo is Derek Smith & Cory Eberhard on drums. These guys go all out and bring a light show if they can.
I’m a huge follower of the Glitch Hop scene and these guys are bringing it hard. I’m so excited to know that they’ll be in Miami this Wednesday at Vagabond hopefully in the main room rocking the Funktion1 Sound System! It’s going to be the first time to experience this style on a BIG BIG system.
Check out Derek rocking the Monome and showing how it’s done when doing LIVE work!
Expect pure energy! This tour has already sold out some venues. Hopefully Vagabond will be popping and people will come show their respects by getting down! This event is big and can’t wait to see and hopefully meet people who are actually into these guys. It’s been a hella crazy week for Miami with event after event! Glad to be in this city and Thank you for whoever booked these guys!
This is what happens when Pretty Lights goes on Tour!
One of the biggest things I have to give them credit for is that they release all their music for FREE. That’s right FREE! You can download their latest album that came out early October at their website. Passing By Behind Your Eyes, is such a great album that most people will enjoy as long as you got groove and feel that bass. Their two other albums are also available for download there as well.
Get ready Miami because PRETTY LIGHTS is almost here. Get ready for some serious bass and grooving! Miami time for visual and audio journey brought to you by pretty lights.
Mimosa is making big moves literally! He has recently relocated from SF down to LA. Seems like LA is becoming the mecca of right now on the West Coast. Even Rusko has moved from London over to LA.
Expect big things from Mimosa in the upcoming years. He most recent album Flux for Life is absolutely stunning. Now that he has moved his home expect more collaborations most likely. Not to mention even closer to the likes of producers like Ooah and the other allstars in LA.
Now for the goods! Mimosa just put up a short mini-mix that shows off what this guy has been up too… FIRE!
Tracklist:
1. MiM0SA – On The Line
2. MiM0SA – Delirium
3. MiM0SA – I’m in Love With a Stripper (ReMix)
4. MiM0SA – Werk Me (feat Missy Eliot)
5. MiM0SA – When I’m Alone (Bigger Than Hip Hop)
Be sure to check out his myspace for more of his work.
Another Fire Friday mix is among us! Be sure to check out last week’s mix and check in every Friday for a special mix.
This week HipGnosis brought some serious tunes to us on his weekly show. Glitch.FM continues to prove to me that this station is one of the freshest communities around. There is tons of talent around in the Glitch community but they’ve got some of the biggest names locked in and spinning every day. Be sure to catch any of the live sets on Glitch.FM. You won’t be disappointed.
