“Homeless” is the unexpected collaboration between techno trailblazer Style Of Eye and synth maniacs Slagsmålsklubben.  As experimental as it is undeniably funky, “Homeless” comes backed by an appropriately mind-bending package of remixes… while rising young producer Canblaster contributes a hyperactive, video-game inspired remix, complete with it’s own announcer! All three tunes sound like nothing else out there, making it only natural that “Homeless” would find its home on Fool’s Gold.

Grab the “Homeless” single now on Beatport, peep an interview with SoE on the Annie Mac Presents blog, and grab the Canblaster remix from RCRD LBL.

Here’s a remix he made for fellow ‘shifter Canblaster:

CANBLASTER – JETPACK – TALK REMIX

One of our new artists, Canblaster, recently put out his first EP called Jetpack. In the pre-release madness DJ Donna Summer was asked to do a remix of his track “Dawgs in da house”, and turned in a Happy Hardcore inspired Jungle-booty burner. Here’s the track for free and here’s a bit about the EP:

JetPack is the first official Canblaster’s EP, released on Sounds of Sumo Records. The first track “JetPack” is UK funky and Detroit house inspired whereas the two others,“Dawgs in da house” and “Thunderdome got Crunk”, are strongly tainted of booty rythm.  The first Canblaster’s EP is a perfect mix between powerful bass, catchy melody and lovely vocals. The all EP is composed of dance hits and “JetPack” is most definitely the club anthem of the end of this year.
Already playlisted by Sinden, Martelo and Dj Klever amongst others, make sure to grab this jewel EP.
