Just Blaze x Baauer “HIGHER” — Oh my tune. New collaboration up (just 15 hours old) between Baauer and Just Blaze, and my goodness, it is worthy. There’s trap and then there’s Trap and this one takes it with a capital letter. Bringing that heavy bass home to its hip-hop roots, there’s no obnoxious trappy synth or 2-beat “hey!” anywhere near it. This whole damn track is gold all the way through, but everything after 3:50 is platinum.

Télépopmusik-Don’t Look Back (Tanner Caldwell Remix) — Télépopmusik are some of my absolute favorites in the downtempo/house scene and their track “Don’t Look Back” gets tons of play from me on lazy/rainy/sunny/sad/happy days, which is to say, all the time. This remix captures everything that I love about the song and pairs it with my nearly excessive love for the dirty south hihat. A little more bass, a little more groove, this one’s a mellow day jam for sure.

(Semi) Daily Posting

You’ve probably noticed a too-much amount of links in the last couple days. This was only sort of intentional. I’m a huge fan of new tunes and a big part of my sets are things that the audience has never ever heard before. While I’ve got plenty of things in my personal life to keep me busy, my music addiction has not abated, so I decided to start sharing some of my set-played favorites (and others that I’d never be able to play at a set because of certain qualities that don’t do the dancefloor justice) in between mixes and mashups. Ideally, there’ll be a song a day, and once the system’s all settled in, that’s how it will be. Those will be available on http://facebook.com/WatsonBreak and http://twitter.com/WatsonBreak directing people back to watsonbreak.com because once you’re there, audio bliss is only a play button away.

Keep an eye on the page, take in the track-a-day and lemme know what you like and what you don’t, whether you want more of some things, less of others, and I’ll listen/ignore as necessary!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the new project!

Datsik - Firepower (MELAMIN & WICKED SWAY Remix)

It’s been about two years since I really rocked the “filth” of this sort of tune, but I gotta say, this one’s actually pretty solid. Dark, crunchy, aggressive as hell, it reminds me why I used to love this sort of thing so much (and why I’ve moved to stuff that’s a little more organic). Still worth a headnod or two.

EvenS Ft. GetOffMyBack - Late Monday Night Shadows

Tune. Deep and atmospheric with a slight eastern lilt before that minimalist groove ex nihilo beat comes out and makes moves where plenty of much more aggro electronic tracks miss out. I can never get enough of EvenS, and I’m more than happy to share the love. Put this in your ears. Amazing track.
