I've slowly been posting more and more about dance music. There has been a lot of exciting music coming out of the scene recently.
The zeitgeist is Get Physical.
These cats have their fingers on the pulse of dance music.
Get Physical won Label of the Year from DJ Magazine. Individually, label owners DJ T, M.A.N.D.Y., and Booka Shade are responsible for the biggest dance tracks of last year (maybe of the last 2 years).
"Mandarine Girl" by Booka Shade and "Body Language" by M.A.N.D.Y. vs Booka Shade blew away every club I went to in Ibiza. House DJs, Techno DJs, Trance DJs...it didn't matter. Everyone plays their tracks. "Body Language" won track of the year at the Ibiza DJ Awards.
I saw Booka play live at the Revolver party in Miami during WMC. If the volume would have been louder, they would have had the set of the conference...
Long story short: These krauts fucking kill.
I wasn't aware of their post on Friday, but it looks like Music for Robots posted about Booka Shade too. I'll send you over there if you want more info on Booka, et. al.
Booka Shade's new album "Movements" is brilliant. I think its out now. Go buy it.
Booka Shade - In White Rooms (via MFR) (Money's favorite track)
Booka Shade - Night Falls (via some dude) (My 2nd favorite)
I'll put up the summer stormers when I get home...Enjoy these for now.
**Personal note: For those of you who remember my "Freedom Party" 2004 @ Rothko & our lovely entertainment SNAX...Get Physical signed him, so what's up now??**
