09.06.10Record Store Pick Of The Week: Mr. SpockNext to the CVS remix of Cajmere's Perculator, another one I've been waiting for to join my crate: Justin Martin & Ardalan's Mr. Spock. It's wearing again the well known quality of mister Martin's productions masterfully cut-up with a sample from Snoop’s Neptunes-produced classic Drop It Like It’s Hot. The 808 drums kick hard and low while the infamous “Snooooooo-ooooop” vocal stutters manically like some kind of tribal flute. Must Have! Claude Vonstroke dropping Mr.Spock:

01.25.10LexiC’s Record store pick of the week #7You're the sun to me. That's the title of the latest Faithless track. What do you think if I'll tell you this track has been remixed by no one less than Gui Boratto. I was as curious as you. But I can tell you, it will hit the floor. Quality smashing minimal, tech-house track. Just lovin' it: As you can see on the youtube vid, it's even FOR FREE to download at the faithless site: http://www.faithless.co.uk/signup/mixmag/ No thanks ;) Remember to check out my January tape, some lovely deep clubby tech-house: LexiC - Bounce To Me by ...

01.13.10LexiC’s Record store pick of the week #6Holla! I'm back for some cratediggin'. This section of my website isn't that regularly updated because I have been quite busy lately, but this one has to be shout out loud. This guy has been growing very fast last years. Since his release on dirtybird I was directly fond of his style and I'm still playing some vintage vinyls of this guy. Yes, I'm talking about no one less than "Riva Starr". Most of you will know him from the wicked "drunk" track: (also big up for the crazy clip :)) After releasing some big tech-house tunes, he's now releasing a ...

01.02.10LexiC’s Record Store Pick Of The Week #5We're flying into 2010 with a huge release on my favorite label "Dirtybird": the official remixes of CVS' vocal chords. My preference goes to the tim green and voodeux one. Slick solid stuff! Both playlisted in my dj sets! Soon a fresh new tech-house tape coming up as January mix!

12.04.09LexiC’s Record Store Pick Of The Week #4Andreas Henneberg delivers a massive EP for Ideal Audios ninth release this month. It is hard to tell which track is the strongest here, because even the b-side is a smasher. The A-side is reserved for Aquaree, which is dark, deep and with impressive sequences. It builds up and up And then drops you from above; otherwise you could burst out from its energy. The track is supported by Stephan Bodzin, Dubfire, Huntemann, and much more. Be sure to check out the masterpiece and enjoy the great video: For the one's who love this kind of music, 5/12 make-up club (Ghent) invites ...

11.27.09LexiC’s Record Store Pick Of The Week #3Worthy picked up my attention already a while ago (Irst_Te on Dirtybird) with some great remixes and releases. In 2006 he started his own label "Anabotic Records" with some fine tech-house. Recently he launched his EP "Eight Yay Eight" on his label. Today, the "Worthy Header" remix came out of Yankee Zulu - Head bob. Yankee Zulu, a fresh guy in the tech/electro scene, and definitely a guy to keep an eye on! BASS BOOM BOOM, Lately I've been buying also a lot of booty/ghetto tracks so I'd like to share a coolio ghetto house docu: December's coming by.. So you ...

11.21.09LexiC’s Record Store Pick Of The Week #2This post is dedicated to some Berlin masterbrains. The first is Paul Kalkbrenner. Most of you will know him of the well-known track "Sky And Sand" with Fritz Kalkbrenner. But he has been much longer in the scene. After some great releases (gebrunn gebrunn, still one of my all-time favorites) and his masterpiece "Berlin Calling", he's back with a remix of "La Mezcla". The remix got released on "Stricly Rhythm Records" and is supported by names as Ricardo Villalobos, Radio Slave, Dennis Ferrer, Guy Gerber, .. Personally, the remix didn't convince me at first sight, but after hearing it in ...

11.19.09LexiC’s Record Store Pick Of The Week #1From now on, I will share some of my favorite record store picks on a weekly basis with you. This week I'll put the attention on an electronic downtempo number. It's called "Two Dots", and has been produced by Lusine. I discovered the track at a deejay contest of a Belgian forum, in a mix of dj freQ. You can find the track on Lusine's album, called "A Certain Distance". It's a world unto itself and got a depth that goes on for days. "Two Dots", the album’s lush first single, features vocals by Vilja Larjosto sliced up into a slinky, paranoid ...
