Spencer Product is back after his debut mix CD ‘Product’. This time he delivers a party anthem ‘We Bite’ with razor sharp remixes from London’s Tronik Youth and NYC darlings Designer Drugs. ‘We Bite’, named after one of Spencer’s classic lower east side sleezefests is an ode to honest to goodness late night debauchery. It’s all about downtown basements, PBR, dirty sex, cocaine and vomit…what more do you need. Spencer’s original is an overdriven distorted electro rock affair while Designer Drugs clean it up a bit for the late night electro beatdowns. Tronik Youth keep things very 80’s new wave disco with heavy reverbs on the drums, cheap synths and vocoders all the way…If you can’t get a trip in to New York this year just close your eyes and this record will take you there. Out Now On

According to UrbanDictionary.com, which is as much a source for culture references as Hype Machine is for music browsing, ‘Blog House’ can be defined as:
1. A genre of dance music, influenced by electro and French house music, made with a simple and lo-fi aesthetic sensibility by people all over the world. Hallmarks of the blog house sound include distorted melodies, 8-bit sounds, sliced-up vocals and pop structures. The democratization of music production and distribution technologies has made the creation and dissemination of blog house available to anyone with a computer and the desire to make dance music.
2. Dance music that proliferates through a blog.
The definition also adds, ‘Maybe the best thing about blog house is that it’s FREE. Fuck yeah!’
Coco Machete enlisted the strategic forces of Low Life Inc., the labels’ new promotion arm to get down in the trenches and find the most mind-melting, body-rattling, thumpers they could- with a dash of bearded-disco and dream-lectro to flesh it out.
‘It Came From The Blog’ is drenched in the terror electro of Fukkk Offf, Kill The Noise & Designer Drugs and the club wrecking din of Le Castle Vania, Cobra Krames and NROTB.
Something stirs in the night, in hazy dark rooms, abandoned warehouse raves and rooftop BBQs, it pounds your head in because…It Came From The Blog!
Check Out the Preview here mixed up by Low Life’s Carmine P Filthy

From SCNDL Incorporated, the underground organization that brought you “That’s A Good Look”, we bring you a new scandal with “Drama”. Where “Good Look” was a funky, street corner get down, “Drama” takes you to the darker side, populating the back alleys of an urban electro nightmare. With a driving nasty bassline, hip hop drum sounds, nerve racking vocal snippets and Wu-Tang-esque melodies “Drama” delivers on it’s title. Two solid remixes from Coco Machete mainstays Fukkk Off & Dog Tags take things in opposing directions, electro to minimal/techno; this is a package not to sleep on. Get Ready For The Drama!

We’re back with a couple quick and sneaky mixes of “Rave Is King” for early 2009, we just didn’t think you had enough of this anthem last year. First up on the take is ATL’s blog wonderkid Le Castle Vania who keeps things pretty close to the original but just a little heavier and a lot more twisted vocoder effects on the vocals. On the flip we have Berlin’s Nhan & Taan with their “Electro Boogie Mix”. On first listen the N&T mix sounds like a banger of a downtempo head-nodder but if come up into some serious electro madness primes for the most discerning djs with a flair for the old school. Again we remind you, Rave Is Still King!

It’s 2009 and we’re ready for big things at Coco Machete. First off the block we have a new artist straight from the cold streets of Moscow. Polymorphic came into the spotlight late last year with his devastating remix of Proxy’s “Raven” on Turbo. When he sent us “Technomusic” there was no looking back, this is some dark, heavy, late night sh**!!! For the B-side he delivered the Polymorphic Trash Mix which although hard to imagine is even dirtier, grimier and more aggressive with crazy cuts and in your face horror movie string sounds. Be afraid, be very afraid !
Also coming up for the new year we have a limited edition set of remixes of Fukkk Offf’s “Rave Is King” from Le Castle Vania & Berlin’s Nhan & Taan , a new release from SCNDL Incorporated called “Drama” with remixes from FUKKK OFFF & Dog Tags and “Take Me Upp” from Montreal’s NROTB with mixes from Designer Drugs & the Trouble & Bass crew’s Math Head.
Keep up if you can !

We’re back with a stonkin’ remix package of FUKKK OFFF’s summer hit “Rave Is King”. First up to bat is Zodiac Cartel and by every measure he hit it out the park. We’ve been follwoing Zodiac Cartel here for a minute here at Coco Machete; he’s a mystery producer from the UK who hasn’t even let us know his real identity, but it doesn’t really matter. When the heavy acid groove and old school rave stabs kick in it’s total mayhem. Skint’s Midfield General is up next with his bass heavy remix which is reminiscent of old Nitzer Ebb industrial grooves…time to Join In The Chant. Lastly we have Montreal’s NROTB giving us their pounding version. Be on the lookout for a single release from NROTB on Coco Machete early next year with remixes from Trouble & Bass’ Math Head and NYC’s Designer Drugs. Rave Is King, Long Live the King!

Bastian Heerhorst, also known as FUKKK OFFF brought the heat at the end of 2007 with electro hip hop stormer “I’m A Freak” which gained huge support from djs and clubs across all genres and time zones. He’s back for summer ‘o8 with a three track monster called “Rave Is King”. If you wanted more after “I’m A Freak”, then you’ve got it. The a-side kicks off with the single for which the e.p. is named and it starts out with a computer voice chanting “Neon Lights, Party People, Revolution, Rave Is King” backed by a maximized electro basslines straight out of 2008. The flashback comes in after about four minutes taking you back to 1988 with piano stabs from when Rave was only a young prince. Next up is “Rock Paper Scissors” which is quite simply a monster builder that only gives you rare glimpses of a release.
On the b-side things take a decidedly darker turn with “Black Phantom” another beast with menacing organ grinds and horror movie vocal snips. Dark, pounding and relentless, “Rave Is King” brings you the full view of the royal court of FUKKK OFFF. Out Today Exclusively at Beatport. Vinyl dropping July 15th.
