Bass music’s man of a thousand faces HERVÉ is ready to tear things up with his upcoming EP, “Zombies.” The four-pack includes the original and two remixes from Franzy Scanner, another member of the CHEAP THRILLS family. The fouth cut, “Hot! Drum Attack” is an assult of kuduro-influenced rhythms and squelching electro. In all honesty though, it sounds like another version of the title track from the release. Does it matter? No. Why? It’s simple really – you feel like turning yourself into a sweaty mess and this is just the single to do it.

Hervé’s “Ghetto Bass” compilation from a couple years ago garnered tonnes of attention from djs worldwide. Keep an eye out for Ghetto Bass 2 which drops on April 12.
It occurred to me on Friday that THE SHAKE has been running for four years now. I can’t believe LOTEK and I have spent nearly every Friday night together in the KICK FM studio since. We started playing mostly mashups and bootlegs but have run the gamut of dance music’s vast reach. (I’m proud to say though, we still haven’t played any trance! Ha!)
Here are the tunes from this week. The show is always spontaneous and as you’ll see below, the setlist reflects that. In other words, it’s a bit all over the place but for the most part, it’s all music that’s come to Manalogue. It’s also a cheeky way to to a massive post of material…

go to KAPSIZE.COM to win!!!
Joker has defined the colourful synth-led melodic style within dubstep that’s become known as ‘Purple w0w’. ‘Tron’ is his biggest tune yet. No MP3s for our lovely readers, but I suggest boppin’ over to Kapsize to win, and if you don’t win then pony up some cash!
Just a quick one because I am feeling in a dubby mood. NONEWYORK dropped us a few tunes to get your knees wobblin’. If you like these tunes check out their releases on HOT N HEAVY’s BAY AREA BASS VOL.1 Listen to the promo mix and bump the RUSKO refix and Dexter inspired original.

Rusko – Da Cali Theme (NONEWYORK funky refix)
Why am I in such a dubby mood? THE RINSE OUT boys and MODERN MATH TONIGHT DUH! Come by the Lord Nelson pub if you’re in Calgary.
Will Justice ever produce a new track that we’ll all instantly get behind and not assume is fake? Way to go pranksters, you got us good.
So being a Canadian blog, we get excited when our fellow countrymen are releasing tunes. As a Canadian, I get REALLY excited when former cast members of my favourite television programme becomes a rapper of note. It’s even better when said rapper of note gets together with an awesome Canadian DJ, and things go off. I was kind of blown away to see Jimmy walking around like it was no big deal. I’m talking about DRAKE if you weren’t paying attention.
This is a fun little edit/remix that sends Wayne home and makes it RAVE.

Drake x Birdman x A-trak – Loonies to Blow

Please listen to their rework of the classic DIGITALISM tune:

One of the reasons (honestly, there are many!) there have been fewer posts is because a mate and I started a weekly. (LOTEK and MANALOGUE have been tag-teaming as THE SHAKE for a few years now.) I feel as though I’m only putting in half the amount of time needed to get this night off the ground, but that’s all I can give at the moment considering other commitments that are a bit more pressing, paying the mortgage for example. If you’re wondering, blogging doesn’t really make any money, well I haven’t figured out exactly how to do it anyway. (Tips are welcome.)
Back to the post. This week I’m pumped to host JAMALL KNIGHT and BERBS. Winnipeg is saturated with djs, and I’d be hard pressed to find any jock in this city I like more than the former. Perhaps it’s because Jamall Knight plays like I/we do – which is a bit all over the place, and every time I’ve seen him behind the decks he consistently drifts to the likes of Proxy, and other noisy producers. Also, big thanks to our freshly minted vj, MRGHOSTY who gives everyone something interesting to look at when they’re dancing or not. This guy’s incredible. I’m totally looking forward to tomorrow!
Like every week though, I have no idea what I’ll lay down but perhaps it might include a schmorasborg like the one below.

Wolfmother – White Feather (BURNS Remix)
Grab this one from RCRDLBL
But not a very researched one. Actually, that’s a lie. For the last two months when I wasn’t bombarded with homework, I was trying to download EVERY ALBUM I MISSED LAST YEAR. The results? Don’t ever try to do that…
I have one fav. album from last year. MODERAT -- MODERAT (or would you write it MODERAT -- S/T?) on BPitch CONTROL from Germany. It’s got just the right amount of thump blended seamlessly amongst the sappy. I suggest the CD version over the vinyl because the vinyl doesn’t include BEATS WAY SICK featuring BUSDRIVER (On a side note, this years album JHELLI BEAM by BUSDRIVER didn’t quite do it for me). MODERAT are a collaboration between APPARAT & MODESELEKTOR.
The I wish all at the staff at MANALOGUE the best of luck in the New Year and to all the people out there behind the screen…keep listening.
Honourable Mentions:
Applescal -- A Slave’s Commitment [Traum Schallplatten]
The Field -- Yesterday & Today [Kompakt]
Kap Bambino -- Blacklist [Because Music]
Nathan Fake -- Hard Islands [Border Community]
Telefon Tel Aviv -- Immolate Yourself [BPitch Control]
Zombie Nation -- Zombielicious [UKW]
I know I just posted the latest from GTRONIC a couple days ago, but since BMKLTSCH RCRDS just sent the whole package, including the original, HOSTAGE, and STEREOHEROES mixes, I figured you might as well get a proper download out of it, right? So here’s that monster remix from and two more deadly stompers!

Do yourself a favour and grab the 320s.
As a bonus, perhaps an incentive, here’s one you might have heard before. Electro clichés aside, this one lives up to its name. Really, it’s a disservice to play any of these in a pair of cans. At the very least, plug into your hifi at home and turn it up; better yet burn them onto a cd and demand your favourite dj to play them.
