Black Strobe Essential Mix

[Civic_Zen]

Has anyone heard this Essential Mix? Talk about a debut I wouldn't have expected, I had no idea what to expect when I decided to check it out but I'm very glad I did. I'd never even heard of these guys. Craig Richards, and Desyn have dropped my two favorite EM's this year, but this one might just knock them both out of the running.

Full of some quirky electro and minimalistic, and sometimes dirty techno and tech house, this mix has it all. I can recommend this to most everyone on this board, whether your a tech house fiend, or a prog junkie, give it a listen. Even if your not much of a fan of electro, check it out. This mix is just awesome. Too bad it came too late to be nominated for EM of the year.

i am still trying to find this mix, really want to hear it, tracklisting on the bbc site looks sweet, soon i hope.

[J-Shock]

Yeah i downloaded this last week. It starts off real nice. The middle is so so, but still real good. They suprised me a lot. Never heard of them before, but will check them out in the future.

They did a wicked mix of a Tieschwartz track... it was on the JZ EM earlier this year. That's all i know about them but from what that track looks like i think it's enough.

May sound silly but I can't find this EM in soulseek..

[myladyfriend]

I really enjoyed this one too. I'm really digging the whole techy electro housey style sounds right now. Variety is the spice of life

Re: Black Strobe Essential Mix

I think they had a tune remixed by Tiefschwarz if I can recall correctly.

[YO75]

First track I heard by them was Me and Madonna bootleg with Justin - Like I love you, both were pretty good electro tracks. Though since then they seemd to have done loads of great production and even better remixes:

remixes:

TIEFSCHWARZ - GHOSTRACK
DAVID GUETTA FEAT. JD DAVIS - THE WORLD IS MINE
DAVE CLARKE - WHAT WAS HER NAME
COSMO UITELLI - ROBOT SOUL
ALTER EGO - ROCKER
RAPTURE - SISTER SAVIOUR

and produced

BLACKSTROBE - ITALIAN FIREFLIES
BLACKSTROBE - ME AND MADONNA

AND CHECK OUT their The ?Chemical Sweet Girl EP?
