Little remix we did on our MPC when the Dj Nu Mark record came out with the acapella. It seemed nothing special at that time but maybe you'll like it. Chris Latham did a little mastering on this one so we switched the download button on for you.

The Allergies - Big Star (Free Download)

When DJ, producer and songwriter Danny Massure moved home to San Diego, he teamed up with a new group of musicians. The result is "Busted". Four new tracks that are original compositions with live instrumentation and no samples. 

The EP starts off with the title track, "Busted", a banging afrobeat tune. 

"Knuckle Sandwich" lays low with an infectious 60s/70s latin swagger. 

On "No Saint" Danny called up his favorite singer and long time collaborator Miya Collins from Seattle. Miya's catchy lyrics and soulful vocals over Danny's funk produced a sassy funk anthem for the ladies who aren't tryin' to get played. 

"Fix It" rolls into the late night, chopping Miya's vocals over a house groove for DJs transitioning from funk and afrobeat into a jackin' house set. 

Diesler, one of Danny's favorite producers, flips "Busted" into a relentless afro-chugger that builds pressure with an acid bassline. 

Atlanta duo CaZ laces a pair of boogie shoes on "Busted" for a trip to afro-disco land finished off with analog synths, afro vocals and a stompy shuffle.  

Shantisan transforms "Knuckle Sandwich" into a bouncy afro-house track with a pounding beat, african vocals and instrumentation and a 70s flavor.  

Ed Royal takes us back to the glory days of house with a stompy beat and grooving bassline on his remix of "Fix It".  

Zamali brings the sexy to the funk on his uplifting disco-breaks remix of "Fix It".  

Trotter aims to destroy the dancefloor with his nufunk breakbeat twist on "No Saint" which is sure to be a hit with the midtempo breaks crowd.
