Skratch Bastid | The Entertainer

I love it!

2011 and we are waiting for a mixtape to drop – to be exact, counting down minutes and refreshing browsers. (Well one browser but who is counting?) Can’t tell you how excited we are to hear Skratch Bastid’s new work, fittingly titled “The Entertainer”. The party we had with Skratch Bastid back last year was probably the most memorable one in our three year tenor, as the Bastid is not only one of the coolest dudes on the planet but without a doubt one of the sickest DJs there is. This is why we confidently urge you to download this guy’s mixtape and spread it around like it was 1995. We on our end promise to have him back in Cologne as fast as possible!

Quiet Storm | DJ Anonymous

If you love timeless house music this is for you!

Once again DJ Anonymous delivers an on point mix, filled with deep house milestones of the late-80’s and early-90’s. Really, I can’t say how appreciative I am that guys like DJ Anonymous continuously supply us with these great tapes, especially in times when mixtapes seem to be a dime a dozen. This guy is one of the reasons I fell in love with those house and disco sounds and I can’t tell how thankful I am for – Suomi Love!

DJ Anonymous: The Quiet Storm House Mix by DJ Anonymous





NPBS

Hands down one of the best all-music mixes of the year so far and definitely one that will be rightfully mentioned at this years best of the year lists! Usually Roctakon and Ross One a.k.a the notorious party boys are sharing party anecdotes and guidelines helping you to stand your ground in today’s nightlife. One of my personal favorites e.g. is their on point definition of the so called It Girl: “An It Girl or It-Girl is an attractive young woman who receives intense media coverage unrelated or disproportional to personal achievements” – Precisely so! Needless to say, the Party Boys Soundtrack is executed in an equally precise manner and will not fail to have the girls in strings dancing in their bedrooms. Big up to Roctakon and Ross One for this one – party on!!!
