STREAM THE INSPIRATION EXPLOITATION MIXTAPE:
Inspiration Exploitation Mixtape by Body Rock
Drop droppin it! MDD’s resident DJ Body Rock is bringing more of that hott mixtape action to you: It has been months since the last mixtape, which by our calculation is far too long. It’s time to freshen thy earloins with the sweet sounds of the Body Rock selects.
From Body Rock hisself:
A lot of amazing music in this mix. Setting the tone right with DCUP’s SMASHING remix of Last Night a DJ Saved My Life, we keep the funk alive as we move into Best Party Ever by one of my favorite producers Shazam.
The mix moves into a deeper, but still plenty funky direction as we get into the UK sounds of Joy Orbison and MJ Cole. That MJ Cole remix, which blows me away every time I hear it, actually came to my attention when myself and the rest of My Dear Disco put our brains on a remix of that same tune for Todd Edwards and Scion A/V Records. MJ Cole took such a different approach in him mix, I just really love it. I am quickly becoming a sucker for those pseduo-half-time dance feels Cole and Orbison demonstrate so nicely in this mix.
Another of my favorite producers, Phonat, is nicely featured in this mix with his incredible journey of a track Set Me Free, and his remix of the Young Punx Rockall. The mix moves on and into some tight indie-house remix joyousness featuring an amazing A-trak remix of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Boy 8-but crushing Dj Touches track “Paddle” and the perfect ending is found in Tommie Sunshine’s amazing acid edit of “Hide and Seek” by Imogen Heap. Check it.
These tracks come to you dancefloor tested, meaning these are the jams I play out when we rock out. Play it loud and play it often!
LOVE.

NEWS
My Dear Disco recently returned from a short run to Chicago and Louisville.
While in Louisville, we saw some things we had never seen before. I documented them for you.

This giant, plastic, light-up palm tree greeted us in the parking lot. We had no idea what wonders waited for us behind the mysteriously well lit club doors.

MUSIC
This song is so melodic and chill. It makes me feel like I’m drinking cream soda on a moon mountain.
If you dig it, make sure to check out the recording – it’s also awesome.

I’m so excited for Sia’s next album. She’s awesome. This is the first single off of We Are Born.
