Fuck yeah leaked albums. New Crystal Castles albums (about 2 singles leaked and a full album ironically and annoyingly named Crystal Castles [AGAIN]), but a bunch of the tracks are full of shit... so here I have uploaded are my favs. Their style has evolved out of the screaming, 8-bit electro that they once were and more towards a glitchy, rock-grunge noise. Doesn't beat their first album by any means.

*as these songs are ... brand new... i can't find videos for them. but trust me they are good.

Uffie, a self-proclaimed alcoholic and party girl from "France" (born in Miami, raised in Hong Kong and now lives in Paris?) is pretty hard to categorize. I'm not entirely sure where her vulgar MC work and house/techno-y beats lay. Either way... her music definitely has a badass personality. However in a recent interview, it's pretty clear that a lot of it is a huge facade :(.

And since I haven't posted much dubstep in a while.. here's something from Joker, a producer form the UK, in honor of the upcoming TRON movie. So psyched to see that shit. Amazing beats on this track... many taken from headhunter events.

Chromeo! On tour! The electro band's instruments mainly consists of a keyboard, synthesizers, a talk box, and guitar. Pretty dance-y.

Second, one of my favorite songs of all-time, Closet Face by Copy (not to be confused with Cut Copy, another electro group). He is a little-known artist who deserves a lot of recognition. A lot of poppy 8-bit, electro, and techno beats go into this song, almost making it a sort of dubstep track, just not as grimey.

Up for download today is an artist who is the subject of many copyright lawsuits. Greg Gillis, or better known as Girl Talk, is a mash-up artist who remixes multiple songs into a single track. All his songs are pretty good party music. The album Night Ripper is one of his most-played, so download it here!

And here's another dubstep track by Rusko, Woo Boost. Personally one of my favourites by him - the bass and beats really kick in around 30 seconds.

ELECTRO REMIX DAY.

Today's song #1 is Runway To Elsewhere (Breakbot Remix) by Pacific!. The song has been transformed with the love of Breakbot, who has added some robotic vocals and additional bass. It'll make you wanna headbang.

The second track of the day is Sound Of Love (The Twelves remix) by Husky Rescue. The Twelves are a beautiful band from Brazil that is most known for their magical remixes, but also has a few solid singles (Works For Me and I Feel Fine are my favs). They use the french vocals and add in their usual drum machines and keyboarding to make for a very chill, yet more upbeat song than the original.

This band is so fucking awesome, but you've probably never heard of them. They remind me of The Smiths, a sound that is almost impossible to regenerate. They are Torn Curtain, a currently unsigned band that hails from Brooklyn, New York and so far has 2 tracks. From the sounds of the EP, they will definitely be getting bigger, so be that I-knew-about-them-before-you-did guy and check it out. My favorite track is Nail In The Coffin, but as I'm told by one of the band members, the tracks are pretty equally loved by everyone.

Torn Curtain currently offers their music for free DOWNLOAD here.
