Thony Ritz – “Rockin’ Feeling”

Rather funny how you discover an artist that’s new to yourself nowadays; It use to be going down to a club, by association to other artists/djs, or word of mouth from friends. This guy actually caught me via Myspace friends request, and I’m glad this happened.

His technique of sampling is comparative to that of Pierre De La Touche, but is not as played out as Louis La Roche. This song in particular adds a level of energy to the now popular “Disco Summer Mix 2008″ by Jean Moustache; this style of French / Disco House still thrives, and I hope it doesn’t go anywhere for a while.

I tried to secure a copy of this song to stream from the man himself (because I haven’t found it from any other source; not even Beatport). Unfortunately, I still don’t have a copy, but he responded so quickly, and is incredibly nice.

8 Splendas for this hard hitting Disco cut!

“Too Cool 4 Skool”

robot needs oil – volta (olivier giacomotto remix)

this french electro producer was nominated as best electro producer in 2008 on beatport (which is sort of a big deal). he’s considered one of the best. on this remix, you get a feel of his production style with a very similar melody & synth lead to princess superstar’s perfect.

it seems most famous beatport producers sort of ripoff hit songs and make them instrumental with a slightly different chord progression. however, also understand that there are so many common bass-lines that are used over and over and over, over time.

anyway, four splendas for this repetitive general dance floor hit.
