A lightly rephrased and extended DJ edit of this great @el_txef_a remix of the @bonar and @ianblevins collab track "Black & Red."

Edit Notes : 

- The original is not phrased to 8s and 16s. This mix is, mostly by simple copy/paste of appropriate sections.
- There's a weird sample in the middle of the song that always seems out of place in the mix. It and the surrounding bars have been cleanly trimmed.

A DJ edit of Lionrock's 1996 techno bass banger, from the album "An Instinct for Detection." Dialing down the percussive craziness but keeping the whomping rolling vibes.

Notes :
- The original track builds in a polyrhythmic way that ultimately gets too busy and layered to use in the mix. I have re-phrased the track so it builds and breaks down cleanly on 32s and have also removed the most busy bits.
- Re-arranged the intro vocal bits, which are weirdly phrased on the original record. It seems your celebration was a bit premature!

A DJ friendly edit of a classic electro banger by Detroit in Effect (D.I.E. - @detroitineffect). All aboard the Detroit Party Train, grab a handle and hold on before the rolling bass hits you!

Notes:
- Extensive restructuring, including a bit more DJ friendly intro and outro.
- More emphasis and frequency for some phrases, less emphasis for others. About a minute less of the main vocal phrases, though the track duration remains the same.

An edit of Quickie Mart's (@quickiemart) remix of Ricky B's NOLA bounce anthem "Shake for Ya Hood." I love the beat on the remix but it has some heavy dubstep style wubs that were a bit too lit for me. The Awesomer edit is still a banger, but it doesn't take things to robo-chainsaw land in the chorus. 🤖🤖🤖

A DJ Edit of a 2014 hypnotic techno banger by the Bay Area's own @demongay, Erica Mar.

A very light edit which slightly rearranges the second half of the song, making it land a little differently on 32 bar phrases.

A DJ edit of a Acid Braindance track by @wildlife-et (f/k/a/ Acid Druid) from his 2011 "I and I Acid EP." Acid synths and furious breakbeats combine to create a maelstrom of psychedelic, mind melting groove.

The original had some very deeply swung rhythmic segments that were excellent to listen to but difficult in the mix. Removed about a minute of them and strategically utilized different sections of the track to add about two minutes back.

DJ edit of an experimental breakbeat techno banger from UK techno wizards Subhead (RIP Phil). Originally released on a Substance Audio compilation in 2011, it was so ahead of its time that it sounds like the sound of right now.

Edits : 

- Extended from 3:15 to 5:39
- Restructuring to land better on 32 bar boundaries for DJ purposes
- Slight edits to merge segments smoothly
