Chemical Brothers - Electronic Battle Weapon 8
Basically, the Chemical Brothers put out these wax only tracks aimed squarely at destroying the dancefloor. The first Chem's Battle Weapon I experienced was on the dancefloor at Vinyl via Mr. Tenaglia. "It Began in Africa" destroyed me for most of the early part of the decade, it still gets me going when I hear it.
This new banger is another genreless epic gem, shades of minimal with hints of acid. I'm sure you'll hear everyone playing this track from now until next December. Listen for it on Annie Mac or Pete Tong tonight.
If you meth freaks need to hear it now, you can "Listen Again" to last weeks Annie Mac's Mash Up here and skip to 22 mins.
Annie's show is my favorite way to start the weekend. It used to be on Thursdays, but now the BBC has decided that Friday is the new Thursday and dropped her on after the Essential Selection on Friday nights.
Annie's got a bit called the "Minimix," a 5 minute mashup mix from the hottest producers of the minute. Exhibit A:
Justice - Minimix for Annie Mac
My buddies from Finger on the Pulse sent out their year end mixes recently and I immediately thought of tying them in with this Minimix post.
A bit longer, but the same idea nonetheless. Hot hotness in true ADD style, Never Forget on the dance-tip and Terry Diabolik's on the Pulse of the 60s:
