The Return of Techno Tuesday!

First off I would like to thank Second Nature for helping improve the blog design immensely. I hope you all enjoy the incredible logo he came up with for the site. Freshen things up a tad. Sorry there was no post over the long weekend, decided to kick back and relax. Off to the post...

Coachella undoubtedly will have one of the most incredible dance music line ups in years to come. I want to continue the tradition of Techno Tuesday and preview some of the artists who are sure to bring their A-game out on stage. So enjoy these bass bumpin' beats, strap on the jet pack and blast off to the outer limits.

David Guetta (#3)


Guetta is undoubtedly one of the most well known DJs out there to date. This Frenchman is a Grammy award winner and is recognizable for hits featuring big-name pop artists. Although many assume he is only about the mainstream bull crap, this guy knows his electro house music and has been doing it since the age of 17. In 2009 he claimed the #3 rank on the Top 100 DJ list. Don't question it, he will be one of the top acts at Coachella. Here is one of my favorites...

David Guetta ft. Chris Willis - "Tomorrow Can Wait"


Infected Mushroom (#12)


The magic Mushroom may not be for everyone but this Israeli duo puts it all on the line. They missed the top 10 roster by a slight margin coming in at #12 on the Top DJ list of 2009. Formed by Duvdev and I.Zen this psy-trance group is taking dance music to a whole separate dimension. The beauty about them is that their music is always changing from album to album giving everybody a chance to partake in the fungal frenzy. Being one of my favorite trance groups, really turning me on to the scene, I have a strong allegiance to the mushroom. Although some of their old stuff strikes my fancy a bit more, it is exciting to see them continue in new directions, consistently breaking boundaries and evolving. This is not your ordinary Portabello folks, so take some to digest their sound...it can be vicious and delicious. Warning: May cause stomach ache.

Infected Mushroom - "Becoming Insane"


Major Lazer


This is a relatively new project from DJs Diplo (Phili,PA) and Switch (UK). They released their first album "Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do" last year and toured a good portion of the summer. I would say their style is a fusion of electro, trip hop, hip hop and reggae. The two DJs met through M.I.A. and recorded their whole album in Jamaica, possibly where some of the influences sprung up from. Each individual DJ is pretty unique and talented on their own but please be careful...when the two are together you better not stand too close to the lazer. You might feel the burn. Reminds me of sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their frickin' heads. Thanks Dr. Evil.

Major Lazer - "Hold the Line"

I hope you enjoy these techno treats. Keep gettin' down and dirty doggy and live in the moment. Remember today is a gift that is why it is called the PRESENT. Tomorrow can certainly wait.
