So my boy Finckobot from the always awesome BRRRLN blog was kind enough to do this week of his Sonet77 radio broadcast on us! Whooo! It’s a mix of NS material from our “back catalog” and some of today’s latest blog-hits. “Tha ‘Bot” (as we call him) is always killer so listen in every week kids!

I’m posting up a semi-older (September) Dj mix I made which I still REALLY LOVE. It’s got tons of energy and gets a bit arty towards the end. Well, sort of arty. hahah!!  We’re spreading this in conjunction with Dj Broadcast.nl, so go there and take a look around if you got a second. Really happy with this one, def has some funny bits, and def some real hands in the air bits too! AH!

Whoa whoa whoa!!! WOW! Some MEGA blog love for us!! Our buddies at Palms Out Sounds, Mad Decent, Electric Zoo, Curb Crawlers, Ruckus x3, and Ulteriormusic all gave us wonderful write up! THANKS!!!!!  We appreciate it dudes!!!!! Of course, all of them linked to tracks, so if you love music then get your link fingers ready!! (wink wink)

Ok, if Discobelle is gonna post it, then dang it, we should be able to post it too!

Here’s one of the 27 tracks that will be available for digital download on all the major retailers OCT 20TH as part of our “back catalog”!  It’s really one of my most favorite tracks we’re releasing and boy does it make people freak the fuck out when you play it on a PA! YEAH!! It’s full of old house and rave vibes, and it’s rad as fuck.

Rampage - Big Breath.mp3 (direct link/320)

Oh yeah! We just got our first bootleg in, and boy does it make us happy! We heartily condone bootlegs/remixes/refixes- whatever! they are fun to make and fun to play! This one comes from an old friend of mine, iLL Cosby!

Hostage- Ruthless (iLL Cosby bootleg).mp3 (320/drip.io)

Oh yeah! We love blogs- 4AM Jess writes for Trash Menagerie, and I do Birthday Party Berlin, in addition to this puppy. We’re not only excited that other blogs are recognizing the potential here at Nightshifters- we also see the blogiverse as a great way to share our music with you! I mean, yeah, we like money too, but sometimes there’s larger things in life.

Anyway, we have had awesome shout-outs in Discobelle, Voulesrandom, Find Voltorb Catch Voltorb, and Oh Death with more on the way!  Thanks peeps!!!!!

Ohhh!  In anticipation for the cruelly awesome new Hostage EP, we here at Nightshifters are sneaking you a little listen to some of the tracks provided in a new DJ mix by the man himself…
