Happy New Year Juicy! people. What a fooking class night, Djing, getting dumped on my head, spending next to no money, it had it all. 2011 is set to be a banging year, for juicy! and electronic music in general. I'm off away tomorrow so this blog may be a bit quiet but stick around because it's getting smashed soon after,
As a special pre-NYE treat, I thought I'd fire this little belter up here. Switching from retro to club banger and back again, hopefully we'll hear more from A.Skillz in the upcoming year, I know I'd certainly like to!
Nero have handed their potential 2011 smash hit 'Me & You' over to the dark horse of French ElectroHouse; Danger. I think we've all been huge fans since '14h54', and despite taking an alternative route to a heavily sidechained bass, he still makes them just as punchy!
Right, I've been working on this far too long now and now it's feels just right. This is my brrrand spanking new promo mix i'm gonna spray all over edinburgh, it's basically just a big fuck off mix of all the tunes i've been playing out as well as acapellas and samples spread over 3CDJs. Plus if you stroll right down to the bottom you can get your hands on a few of my exclusive bootlegs used in this mix. Get Orrrn It!

Seeing as it's christmas and we've just passed 2000 views on this blog (not bad considering we've only been properly going for a few months) i've decided to upload and share some of my own bootlegs that i use in my DJ sets...
Not only is he a class producer and live act but a philanthropist aswell, get your present from Deadmau5 this christmas in the form of this track Limit Break....
We've just hit 2000 views, which is brilliant, so as a special christmas treat/celebration heres a stack of tunes to keep you going until new year, when you should get down to City to see DJ Ian Billet (Juicy) smash it with Kissy Sellout & Pendulum, a night not to be missed, especially if you've been missing your weekly fix of Juicy! on Freshair.
First up is a tune that has been tearing 2010 up, featured on Jaymo & Andy Georges Mixmag CD recently, its the catchy, techy, downright weird Djedjotronic remix of I Am Europe, do not miss this one - Gonzales - I Am Europe (Djedjotronic Remix)
Next up is a massive new remix from the prolific Joris Voorn, whose set at the Liquid Rooms for Musika on Saturday 18th December was without doubt one of the best nights I've ever been to, he finished what had been an amazing set on this phenomenal remix, well worth a look - Stephan Bodzin & Marc Romboy - Callisto (Joris Voorn Remix)
In my most recent post I basically declared my love for Alex Metric, who is set to have a massive 2011 and this tune is another one backed by him, guaranteeing its quality - Evil Nine feat. El-P - Stay Up
Moving on is this disco banger from Dan Castro remixing the Basement Jaxx, without doubt one of the funkiest tunes I'v heard all 2010, featured on the last Juicy show of the year - Basement Jaxx - Flylife (Dan Castro's Eivissa Remix)
Finally a tune from two DJ's me and Ian idolise, releasing their first production as a duo (other than remixes), with legendary grime star J2K on vocals and subskrpt on the remix, stormerrrrr - Jaymo & Andy George feat. J2K - Hold Me Back (Subskrpt Remix)
Thats all from us, thanks for all the support in reaching 2000 hits, hopefully there will be many more milestones to come, have a sick Christmas and New Year and stick around for bigger and better things from Juicy! next year xx
We've all heard Black Eyed Peas' abysmal attempt to rip off dutch house, and by the looks of it, so has the man who pioneered dirty bits, Afrojack. Nothing more to say except he's shown them exactly how it's done... Black Eyed Peas - The Time (Dirty Bit) (Afrojack Remix)
We here at Juicy! are massive Afrojack fans. So you can imagine how excited i was when i found out i'd be getting my hands on 9 brand new Afrojack tunes. Very recently he released some unreleased tunes lingering around his hard drive in a collection called Lost & Found.
Been waiting for this one for ages and its finally dropped, both of these songs are from his new EP 19.5 They're both classic Pryda tracks that have immensely long build ups but the drops make it completely worth it...
I can't actually believe Avicii hasn't done an essential mix before, but it's fucking quality. He might not be the best looking DJ/producer around but 'Bromance', 'My Feelings For You' and 'Tweet It' are testament to just how good he is as a producer.
Essential Mix Tracklisting...
Avicii — Jailbait (w/ Faithless ‘Insomnia’ Acapella) Tim Berg — Abow (w/ Kings Of Leon ‘Sex Is On Fire’ Acapella) Swedish House Mafia — Miami 2 Ibiza (Instrumental Mix) Pocket 808 — Ghostship (Hook N Sling Remix w/ Eurythmics ‘Sweet Dreams’ Afrojack — Pacha On Acid Bingo Players — Toms Diner (Acapella) Steve Angello — Teasing Mr Charlie Avicii — Swede Dreams White LabelAvicii — Penguin Avicii — Unnamed Robyn — Hang With Me (Avicii Remix) Armin van Buuren — Drowning (Avicii Remix) Tim Berg, Axwell, Michael Woods — Can You Feel Bromance Is Dynamik (Tristan Garner Edit Vs Axwell Edit) Pendulum — The Island (Steve Angello, An21, Max Vangeli Remix) Dune — Heiress Of Valentina (Alesso Remix) Avicii & Sebastien Drums — My Feelings For You Axwell — Nothing But Love For You Otto Knows — Hide N Seek Marco V — Reaver Steve Angello — Knas Vs Insomnia (East & Young Bootleg) Tiësto & Diplo — C’Mon Congorock — Babylon Tim Berg — Bad Things Thomas Gold — Agora Tim Berg, Norman Doray & Sebastien Drums — Tweet It (w/ Empire Of The Sun ‘Walking On A Dream Acapella’)
It's been a while since his 'Fix Your Accent' EP having re-released 'I Think I Like It', but Fake Blood is back with one bouncy drop! This comes courtesy of Jaymo & Andy George's MixMag CD, but no doubt the original 320 will be hitting the blogs soon..
Soo the official Fresh Air broadcast has broadcast for the semester has ended but me and jack are so comitted to the session we've put on another show for y'all...
Theres been a couple of really good remixes of the legendary Rolling Stones floating around for a while now so I thought I'd share them with you all.
First up is the brilliant Soulwax's remix of You Can't Always Get What You Want, its a bit more laid back than a lot of Soulwax tunes but still delivers, well worth a look -
Next up are two fantastic remixes of Gimme Shelter, which in itself is amazing, I really like how theyve kept a lot of the songs original components in these mixes.
Not sure when or if this is being properly released but Jaymo & Andy George played it on their radio show last week and it's class. It's the sort of song you just know the clubs will go wild for, NUFF CHAT...
Sooo exams are quickly approaching and getting back revision reminds me how badly it sucks. So to pick up my (and your) spirits here's a selection of massive feel good house anthems.
The only option is to play these loud...
Funkagenda - Lmaoblade (Original Mix) - i just can't get enough of that breakdown with that synth/string combination at 4:00 and the build-up that follows.
We have'nt been posting enough d'n'b on the blog so I decided I'd rectify the situation, anyone who tunes into the Juicy! Show - Fridays On Fresh Air, 8-9:30 on Fresh Air Radio , will know that me and Ian love nothing more than a cheeky skank to a slice of drum and bass, so here we go....
First up is a producer who should need no introduction, DJ Fresh is one of the biggest producers on the scene at the minute, earning himself daytime airplay along with specialist support with his massive tune gold dust. This time he's teamed up with (relative) newboy Sigma to produce this absolute banger. This was my top tune in me and Ian's vs. and despite views to the contrary from esteemed station managers I reckon it sealed it for me, safe to say its lahhaaarge
Next up is Danny Byrd, his album Rave Digger has been on everyone who's anyone in the music world's speakers and for good reason, this time around he's remixing the talented Plan B to great effect -
Can't believe i forgot about this, released in november sometime. Got some verrrrrrry trippy techno beats in there, not exactly an easy listening album but a stormer nonetheless... Get it quick!
Skream's just retouched Katy B's massive collaboration with Ms Dynamite to massive effect, dubbing up the original to give it a whole new level, we played it on the show tonight and it went offff in the studio and on the facebook (tune in - Fridays 8-930 Freshair) this is only a 128 and it does'nt do it justice, keep your eyes peeled for a 320 - Katy B & Ms Dynamite - Lights On (Skream Remix) - 128
Wow. I've just come across this Los Angeles based producer called 'Them Jeans' on Erol Alkan's forum and some of his productions have absolutely blown me away. From the looks he's had releases on Dim Mak, Top Billin' and Mad Decent sooo ENOUGH CHAT, THIS GUY IS SHIT HOT....
