thank you all!!!

Let’s continue with a new release which actually has been out for a couple of days already, so i kind of owe it to you. This was a release i personally have been expecting and waiting for some time now, as listening to quite a few remixes as well as the original track it sounded like a very promising release. And now the time has come for you to draw your conclusions and decide for yourselves whether it was worth the wait. “Wario Must Die” EP by L&M Bros was released on Ventuno Recordings on the 24th of March and featuring 1 original and remixes by LBDC, Moore & Lezz, Elegant Perverts, Partysmartie and Tape Deck Bros this is a banging release that is certainly worth checking out! I’ll post here the preview of the EP as i usually do with the new releases  so you can get an idea, the rest is up to you…

Hi all, i hope you are having a great weekend! After a couple of soundless and really busy days that made me put my blogging activities to rest i am back today with a new release, which i promised to post yesterday actually so it’s one day overdue. You’ll have to excuse me but i’ll cut it short today with only one post as i can feel my social life calling me out to go have some fun. I will make it up to you tomorrow though with some more posts. So, the post i have for you is about the “Guild of the CRUX Vol. 01”. CRUX Records came up with a really big compilation, released a few days ago and couldn’t go unnoticed and unmentioned from the Metalectro blog. With 22 exclusive tracks on 1 massive compilation and names such as Malcolm Funktion, Trashing Teenagers, Comic Strips, Dead CAT Bounce and Konovalov, to name a few, put together in one single release this one is supposed to make your weekend even better! So, check it out!!!

The Metalectro blog and THaF Records are joining forces and present you the very first remix competition hosted by the Metalectro blog! Here you can listen to the original track as well as find and download the stems for “Ghost House Beats” by The Hats. To submit, share your remix to this Soundcloud Group!

Here’s a very nice to start the new week, the new “Horizon” EP by Subdue. A release that is going to blow a lot of minds and sets of ears away! The previews of the tracks have been blowing mine away for a few days now and i did already share them with you a few days ago! I was mistaken though when i said that the EP would contain 2 original tracks and 6 remixes. Actually, it is 5 originals and 6 remixes which makes this a release that is probably packed with more good tracks than you can handle in one single release. Everything else is the same like i said on the preview i posted a few days back. So, today i will post here the EP teaser as a reminder! Go check this one, it’s out already and waiting to impress!

This is a new release i just stumbled upon and really left me shocked! I’ve been following Electro Foundation for a while now but except for “Doghouse”, featured in Metalectro MixTape vol.02 too, i wasn’t the biggest fan of their tunes, as their hard electro-house style isn’t really my favorite. Well, until today that is because as soon as i listened to “Sun Odysey”, which is the title of their new EP as well, i immediately became a really big fan! The melody and atmosphere of the track is so amazing and yet it pounds hard and doesn’t go soft on the dirt! One of my late favorites no doubt! The other track of the EP, “Sounds Of The Ocean” is also great but right now i have to focus on “Sun Odysey”! A must listen!!!

I’ll start the day with the release of the Silent H new EP. I posted the preview a few days ago , well it was the whole EP really, but like i said then i would remind you of the release when it’s out, so here i am doing exactly that. A release with 5 original tracks and listening to the tracks, i have to say this is a pretty good release. All 5 tracks are really good, with a couple of them being great actually. “Monstrumental” EP was released by Thaf Records and is already available on Beatport, so make sure you check it out. A really impressive release by my standards, especially considering the fact that Silent H is certainly not amongst the big names but he no doubt is a very promising up and comer!

The second release is the new EP by F2U, titled “Burned Brain”. It was released yesterday by Bonds Records and like the previously posted release, this one is as well limited to only a couple of original tracks and no remixes. The tracks are “Bad Mad Man” which you might have heard before as it is the heavy artillery of the EP and in my opinion, the track that will lift most of the weight. A few remixes of it have been made, some quite good as well but none of them made it in the final release. I bet there must be a good reason for this but it’s not up to me to know why and i certainly don’t have any more info on this one. Anyway, back to the EP, the second track is called “Virus” and let’s hope it spreads like a virus as well from deck to deck and from listener to listener. With this wish i will close this post, here is the full version of “Bad Mad Man”. Check it out!
