Greatest Hits (2003-)

On the eve of my 30th birthday, for no particular reason whatsoever (perhaps to combat the onset of the various mid-life crises ; insomnia, ennui, etc.) I began rendering "automatic" "enhancements" of the most salient aspects of the pop music of my youth; a line, bar, or fragment of a particular song (after being heard out in "the wild" in the present & re-triggering its memory; akin to running into an old friend on the street & having to stage that awkward, stilted conversation neither of you wants to have) was chosen based on how much my nostalgic recollection of it differed from its contemporary reality.

Each edit was looped at exactly half-speed, then run through a battery of time- & gain-based processes in series that slowly and meticulously chewed through the audio, revealing hidden layers of content, context, and temporal / spectral production details ... like shining a flashlight into the dark corners of each selection, exposing the hidden ghosts lurking within. Each representation here consists of a selected 3-20 minute chunk based on the perceived "significance" unraveled via this process, lasting a natural-seeming length (i.e. the ones that are less … "rewarding" tend to be shorter, the better ones longer) …

I'll be (slowly) uploading all 200 "Hits" (which should yield approx. 24 hours of music) to this SoundCloud set over the next few months/years. I know this is a cliché, but PLEASE PLAY THESE EXTREMELY LOUDLY, over GOOD SPEAKERS (subs are a MUST given the low-end emphasis; don't bother listening over your laptop or computer speakers !!! you'll miss more than half of what's going on here) ... I've also uploaded an accompanying image for each "Hit" (all of these are derived from the artwork of a given artists' "Greatest Hits" album - mass, minor, or tertiary market editions [personally I love seeing & using the various "Горбушка" -lineage variations] - or, failing that, the cover of the single or album via which the track in question arrived) made utilizing tactically similar means (cheap, often preset plugin "enhancement" algorithms, rendered in multiple passes) …

The entire suite is dedicated to Tim Haslett, without whose guidance (through the then seemingly-endless sea of post-'00 Houston chopped & screwed mixes) I would have undoubtedly missed out on the chance to dwell on the pivotal ideas at play herein.

The Computers - Pump It Up (Elvis vs Elvis)

A little more then two years ago Miguel released a track on Hot Creations which became one of the most influential tracks of the last years. I did an edit for my sets at that time. Sure i sent it also to Miguel and he loved it. In fact its the only edit of his track which he ever supported and played. we decided to give this now to you as a gift. 

Merry christmas and lots of love. Miguel and Hosh

"Creep"

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice when I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell I'm doing here?
I don't belong here

She's running out the door
She's running out
She runs runs runs

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here

Martin Garrix - Animals
One of the most hyped and discussed teasers of May 2013 was the teaser for 'Animals'. No artist name was mentioned and from that moment on fans and bloggers alike went head to head in heated discussions on who the artist could possibly be... It turned out to be Dutch prodigy Martin Garrix, which was officially announced by Billboard Magazine. The DJ support is overwhelming and we're sure this track will do ultimate dance floor damage. Just wait for that drop and prepare to jump! 

David Guetta : 'Nice'
Hardwell : 'Full support'
Afrojack : 'Support'
Steve Aoki : 'HUGE'
Sander van Doorn : 'Full support'
Fedde Le Grand : 'Played in my radioshow!'
Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike : 'It's fat!'
Chuckie : 'Sick tune!'
Porter Robinson : 'too good!'
Tommy Trash : 'fun'
