Mix Roundup – iamyank, Bassnectar, MartyParty, Sully

LOTS of quality mixes dropped this week – let’s get into the jammzzz:

Budapest’s iamyank dropped the third in his mix series, Bassclectic. The first two parts were instant classics – full of gritty, stompy, tasty glitch-hop. This one is another fine example of his excellent selection and mixing skills – plenty of super womped-out classics, squishy future funk, traditional spacefilth, and a sprinkling of drum n bass and breaks to keep things moving. No tracklist, but you don’t need one because every track rules.

MartyParty came through with a hyphy-as-fuck dubstep mix for the always excellent BWOMPbeats.com Mix Series. It is NOT for the faint of heart – it features quite a few exclusive bangers from his new dancefloor-oriented SUB-ON ep, and it is some powerful bass medicine. Fair warning, if you live in Brooklyn, the ice-cream truck jam MIGHT drive you insane. And that Whip My Hair remix by Crizzly? Outta control. Finally, HOLY SPACE WOMPS BATMAN, that album art is in-god-damn-credible.

Cop it, and many more quality BWOMP mixes, here.

1. MartyParty – Lose This

Resident DJ-of-the-Gods, Bassnectar, dropped the Color Storm REMIXTAPE a few weeks ago, but no mix roundup would be complete without it. Lorin proves once again here why he has a such a massive and rabid following – he balances sure-fire crowd pleasers with his own unique sound relentless energy. I mean, the second half of that tracklist is a safer bet than most mutual funds.

Finally, on the chiller side of things, Sully did a mix for the always-excellent Hyponik mixseries. His recent  mixes for FACT and XLR8R were both quality, as well, but this is the one that really drew me in.  It starts with some retro vibes from Teengirl Fantasy, Harmonic 313 and Tangerine Dream, and moves into some classy and innovative 2-step/garagey tunes. “Turiya” by DjRUM, is the best damn track I heard all week. Finally, Sully cements my love for him by getting my head boppin to a Klaar remix of “Money To Blow”; I absolutely hate the original.
