Lock N Load – Blow Ya Mind (Chuckie Meets Obek & Neve Remix)

Chuckie teams up with Spanish duo DJ Obek and Albert Neve (who also did a ‘Commander’ remix with Chuckie) to create a sweet dutchy rendition of ‘Blow Ya Mind’ a 10 year old classic. Love the horns in this track…looks like Chuckie has given up on the ‘bleeps’ and is coming out with newer dirty drops. N-JOY!

Dancing Astronaut presents The 50 Best Songs of 2010: 11-20

There’s only one day left till New Years, and as we get closer to ushering in the close of a decade, these top tracks are only getting better and better. 2010 has been a fantastic year for house music. The house veterans (read: Martin Solveig, Benny Benassi, etc.) pumped out bangers that took all comers. And we gobbled up with enthusiasm the offerings of some fresh faces, like the talented Porter Robinson. This melange of old and new has kept things fresh, putting EDM fans in an enviable position heading into the new year.

Audio Junkies ft. Eyal Talmudi – Let’s Make A Party (Manuel De La Mare & Alex Kenji Remix)

The Audio Junkies are from Tel Aviv, Israel (you can hear the Israeli vibes all over this track). I love the unique sounds that are unlike anything I have heard. Manuel De La Mare and Alex Kenji throw their standard (yet always awesome) progressive tune onto the original to formulate a BOMB. The title of the song says it all…go make a party!

Spencer & Hill – Yeah Yeah Yeah (Teaser)

Check out the new Spencer & Hill teaser that was just released today! German electro house for the win! Cannot wait for the release. N-JOY!

Gregor Salto ft. Florian T – Mundocaso (Original Mix)

I have to admit this one took me a few plays to get accustomed to. However, after listening to it a few times the smooth Latin vibes…completely won me over. This is a very nice track to begin the night with or just listen too while relaxing. Imagine yourself hanging with a bunch of beautiful women by a pool in Miami with this song playing in the background. Pretty sweet eh?

(I guarantee you…that the pool image will pop in your head as you click play)

Porter Robinson – The Wildcat (Lazy Rich Remix)

Lazy Rich has not appeared on Dancing Astronaut for quite some time..glad to see he is back in style! He remixes Porter Robinson’s ‘The Wildcat’ and adds a little wobble to the drop. When both of these electro-house kings combine forces..we get a dirty hard hitting track! This is not for the sensitive ear…N-JOY!

Missy Elliot – Get Ur Freak On (Chocolate Puma Bootleg)

Although this song has been remixed many times this is one of the best I have ever heard. Chocolate Puma destroys ‘Get Ur Freak On’ by Missy Elliot. Love the fidgety sound near the last drop. Excellent!
