I AM LEGION - Make Those Move [Noisia x Foreign Beggars]
Oh wow so, I don't know why I waited before listening to this. Noisia and Foreign Beggars taking their usual collab and takes it one step further by placing a name on it. Really like the moombah/hip-hop feel with some rock inspired riff-runs. Vocals are a bit strange in some sections according to me but such is life.
This bomb of a tune will be available 15th July, and entire album in September. I can't wait.

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Can't Hold Us [Major Lazer ft. Swappi and 1st Klase RMX]
A real nice remix of a song that you all have probably heard many goddamn times by now.
Free download as well if you go here!
Now the wait begins for a professional Thrift Shop remix (I am looking at you, Bro Safari & Noisia).

Major Lazer - Free The Universe
Major Lazer's new album. I like this album, there are loads of songs, different artists featured on every one of them. Loads of chefs for many soups, with the Major Lazer production-quality-experience. No remixes, which to me is a good move.
I really liked the track Get Free. To be honest, the tracks that stuck with me the most were the calmer ones. However, Watch Out For This and Jah No Partial are some really uptempo joints that I quite liked as well. Will be listening to this many times!
You can buy Free the Universe on iTunes and you can listen to it in it's entirety on Spotify.

Skrillex - Kill Everybody (KOAN Sound RMX)
Skrillex - Kill Everybody (KOAN Sound Remix) by KOAN Sound
I was going to go to sleep, but then I found this. Holy shit! KOAN Sound never fails to surprise the fuck out of me. This is like, three different remixes of the same song, and none of them sound the same.
KOAN Sound is one of my absolute favorite supplier of beats. Love, love, the hiphop influenced stuff. Up until 1.10 or so, it's like, dope. Then after that, jaw drop.
Not sure what to say besides that, this song is incredible.

Terravita Interview + Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Release
I'm sorry for being so Slow with this. Seriously fucking lightning killed my internet the day before I recieved the Terravita interview answers. Yeah... screw you nature, what's your problem?
On to business. Terravita released the 'Dirty Rottun Scoundrels' EP about 2 weeks ago on Rottun Recordings. Having Terravita as one of my favorite groups, I had to ask them about an interview. I listened to the previews upon their released and I loved it. No more space for ramblin'. Go grab a copy of the EP from beatport, have a listen to the previews while you read the interview and wait for the download.
Fuckin' A, Terravita baby.
___________________________________________________________________________
B - You're more of a group, which is quite unusual in this scene since acts mostly consist of a single producer/DJ. What's your backgrounds? How'd you connect and decide to make music?
T - We all have individual musical backgrounds. Chris grew up listening to rock and metal, Jon grew up listening to hip hop and Matt grew up listening to video games. 10 years ago, Chris and Matt were both DJs in their local EDM scene in New England and Jon was also around the area MCing. Matt and Chris started writing some tracks together in Matt 's bedroom. In 2004, after making more tracks and doing some name changes, they joined forces with Jon to turn into the voltron that is now Terravita/ Hot Pink Delorean. Being in a group isn't that unusual....ie Pendulum, Noisia, Chase & Status, Nero, Evol Intent...there's a lot of groups.
B - You've also got the sweet-ass group 'Hot Pink Delorean', or 'HPD', which features many influences, prominently some pretty swingin' electro. did you start this up at before, at the same time, or after?
B - Let each person in the group pitch in 2 words to create a sentence!
T - On the unicorn planet, the bass tomatoes go ball fishing. Can you guess which words we pitched in?
B - Terravita has many unique songs, but you still manage to tie everything together in a fashion that makes you recognize the individual Terravita sound. What's the staple inspirational process for creating a new banger?
T - The song writing and the sound design process usually happens separately. Sometimes we'll write our ideas down and then make the sounds fancy later. Other times we just make loud noises and drop them into tunes we're working on. The song writing is random inspiration from one moment to the next. Sometimes a good idea will come to mind and one of us will hum it into a voice memo on their mobile to use later.
B - What kind of gear/DAWs do you use in the studio, versus live? Does each of you have an individual preference?
T - Cubase 6 on a really fast laptop with a RME Babyface external audio interface. For plug-ins, we use Native Instruments for synths (Massive, FM8, Absynth) For mixing and mastering plugins , we use almost exclusively Izotope products. Matt has done preset design and content for the factory sound banks of several Izotope products including Ozone 4, Alloy and BT's Stutter edit.
B - The 'Are You Ready For Me' you're releasing sounded like a real hype-tune on the preview. Is having rapper vocals something you've wanted to do for long in a Terravita song, or have you perhaps used them before?
T - We've used them before but not to such a capacity. Jon is a rapper/ MC so expect more tunes with lyrics on it.
B - We've had some really great dubstep artists play here in Sweden, Flux, Doctor P, DatsiK, Skrillex etc. We really need you as well! Got plans for a Europe tour any time soon?

T - Hot Pink Delorean came much later. About 3 years after Terravita. It was conceived by us being backed up on our Terravita releases just waiting for them to come out. We had a lot of friends that were into the "Blog House" movement which was huge at the time So we figured why not try our hand at it.

T - Unfortunately, due to our Hot Pink Delorean lp release tour on top of our Terravita tour commitments stateside and in Australia, we won't be touring europe until February 2012. We love Sweden, so we will make sure you are the first to know when we are booking. Your party sounds awesome!
B - What artists would you like to collab with, and why?
B - What artists would you like to collab with, and why?
T - Herman Lee from Dragonforce because one of those power metal solos would destroy over a drumstep tune. Juston Timberlake because it ain't gay if it's a 3 way. Outkast, because Jon has hair envy of Andre 3000 and Big Boi knows how to party.
B - To what lengths will you go to stay in shape with the scene? Electronic music is developing quicker than an antelope can run, will you be lions?

T - We're more like crocodiles in the electronic scene: We've been around forever, but we get to eat lions and antelope sometimes.
B - We've come to the must-have interview question for BASSPOLICE. If you could bring 3 lizards with you into space, what would you name them? (You may choose 1 each, do all 3 separately or fight about it, really it's all yours!)

T - First we'd put them in small sweaters and teach them to sing. We'd feed them helium and then we'd name them: Alvin, Simon and Theodore.
B - Lastly, throw any shoutouts to your massives' here!

Feed Me x Ludacris - Cloud Low (Smash + Destroy Mashup) ((Dieselboy & Smash Gordon))
For the first time in ages, I had more than 1 song to contemplate posting today. Actually there were 3 tunes competing for today's feature. Obviously this one won, since, well you know, it's the one I'm posting. Big fan of Dieselboy and Smash's DJ skills, and I really love Feed Me too. And erh, well Ludacris, he the man, you dig? Cloud Burn really blends exceptionally well with How Low for some reason, and makes this mashup huge. You might've heard this one before, since it was featured first in SMASH YOUR FUCKING FACE Vol. 3 (previously featured, hint hint).
Free download here (fuckin' A free dl's are dope)!
Still got more days left of the week to post those other tunes yeh? Yeh! Stay tuned, pun intended I guess.

NWA - Fuck tha Police (Figure Bootleg)
NWA - Fuck The Police (Figure Bootleg) by Figure
Holy fucking shit. This guy is crazy! I was surfin' deathelectro and saw this guy mentioned for drumstep etc so I checked his stuff. All I can say is whaaaaaaaaaaat!? His damn songs are so fresh, I'm stunned. Every once in a while you stumble over something that just sounds completely new, this is one of those fucking times.I can't really define the genre beyond awesome as hell, you'll have to figure(;DD) it out for yourself.
Picked this song over the others because, well, fuck the police. But seriously though check out his soundcloud and crank the volume to 12!
thinking of getting a postername like Isidor has, not sure what to go with tho! maybe Count T? we'll see

KOAN Sound!
Hiya folks!
This time I feel like showing you something that is a little hard to pinpoint what it really is.
The stuff that KOAN Sound makes, walks the line between a couple of different genres. They have the heavy half beat from Dubstep but it's all executed in around 100-110 bpm wich is more normal for hip hop and such!
Incredibly inspiring and awesome I must say!
First up is this killer track, that was discribed by one of my friends as "a dubstep version of Rage Against the Machine".
Second tune goes for a more smoother vibe but with some more work on the drums. Every last hit is amazingly well put in place and the overall feeling is really dreamy and groovy at the same time. Check it out!
Happy Hipsters by KOAN Sound KOAN Sound's latest EP was dropped in late may, this year! "Max Out" EP is one of the most interesting releases so far this year and we, the crew of BASSPOLICE, are anxiously waiting for more!
If you want more of KOAN you should head over to their SoundCloud http://soundcloud.com/koan-sound!

Eazy E - Boyz N The Hood (Squincy Jones 16Bit Edit)
Squincy Jones usually makes pretty bitchin' music overall, but here's one that's a personal fave, a '16Bit Edit' of Eazy E's 'Boyz N The Hood', real grime-groove right here! Wouldn't even know what to label it, hip-hop? dubstep? glitch-hop? I'dun know, dun' really care, it's dope.
