2012, A New Year, a New Essential Listening post.

So it's been a wee while since i was active on here, with summer and what not i have a new load of fresh tunes to fire your way. It will once again range in Genre.

Without further Ado i give to you, My Summer 2012 Essential Listening blog.

New Zealand Shapeshifter - Sleepless (B-Complex Remix) - Coming off the System is a Remix album released last year on Hospital, B Complex has taken this track and done what i never thought possible. Improved a Shapeshifter song. his is a great relaxing mellow track, great for summer days with a beer.

High Contrast - The Agony And The Ecstasy feat Selah Corbin - OUT NOW on Hospital Records! Link to buy under the description in the Youtube link. Coming off his new album (Of the same name) High contrast has released a banger. Having climbed it's way up my Playlist ranking's after only a few day's on there this is bound to make anyone's feet move. Definite club banger!

One Click Headshot - Feed Me - Fresh Release from Feed Me! Coming off his Escape to Electric Mountain EP, this is another Club banger! With some wicked samples this is sure to crack a smile to anyone's face. I can see this Tune featuring heavily in my upcoming set's.

The Tides Have Turned - Ollie Bassweight & Timmy P MC - A HUGE track from Two very talented local boys. I have been pushing this track for a while! With Ollie being one of the Country's best Producers and Timmy P being a very talented MC, this track has it all, sweet vocals and some very tasty Basslines. Wellington Talent at it's finest.

Camo & Krooked - Cross The Line feat Ayah Marar  - A massive track! Very uplifting, the Austrian due Recently smashed my Eardrums with their set in Wellington. Such a good night, they energy behind the deck's is inspiring. With this Track coming off their second album - Cross The Line - On Hospital Records (I am sensing a Trend Here) This is just one of the Massive Tracks.
Also, if anyone has Ayah Marar's Phone number, i will do anything to borrow it for a quick chat. She doesn't know it yet, but she is going to be the Next Mrs. Jack Adams.

Avicii - Levels - Right, i don't think my summer would have been the same without this track! It got played, it got played a lot. Hell Even mainstream radio couldn't ruin this track for me. If you haven't heard this tune i would be heavily surprised. With the Vocals of the Late Etta James (RIP) and the production of Avicii this track blows everything away. Much love for this Tune!

Danny Byrd - B.R.I.S.T.O.L ft MC Risky - Wow, okay so i am sorry for the Overload of Hospital tracks, but they're mostly a think of beauty. This is no exception, a very very good track for the Byrd, Who killed it at Rhythm and Vines!

Cut Copy - Lights & Music - I must admit i knew very little about these guys until Rhythm announced their presence, i Youtubed them and have been digging their music since. Very good live! Give them a quick watch! You won't regret t.

Six60 - Don't forget your Roots - Another new Zealand track! Perfect for those summer beers! Granted we may have not had a lot in the way of Sunshine recently, but doesn't think just make you wish we had more of it?

12th Planet - 28 Hours Later - Hot of the American Dubstep scene i had only heard a few tracks by this guy! That was until i saw him Back2Back with Borgore at BW Campgrounds, That was easily the best 2 hours of my time there, some HEAVY Tracks by this guy. Check them.

Mac Miller - Donald Trump - Some Pretty uplifting Hip-Hop here, coming straight out of Philly this track is pretty legit, it will get a Dance floor pumped up and ready to go (Well i hope). One of Hip-Hop's finest new acts.

Diabolic feat. Immortal Technique - Frontlines - Political Hip-Hop with a brilliant underlying message. Found this track after listening to some IT and agreeing with some of the messages he Rap's about, His Album Martyr is very worth a Listen.

Blink 182 - I Miss You - Holy Shit! I haven't heard this Track in A long time! Stumbled across it while Linking some of the other song's in this. Almost a Decade old now but still one of the Tracks that many can Jam to. Uplifting shit right here guys! Check it.

M'Black - Heartbreak (Bare Noize Remix) - Another Brilliant Dubstep producer to have violated my Eardrums already this year! Supported by the Local and Talented Timmy P this night was Off the Hook! Some solid tune's been released! Planet Earth (EP/Album) is very much worth a Whirl.

TC - Where's My Money - BOOM, as Part of the Lunatix promotion team i am gonig to Throw in a promotion for this dude! If you haven't got a ticket for one of the Shows Click Here. Easter Weekender Is also Featuring - Wilkinson - Zomboy - Skism - Reeps One - Roksonix - Jenna G - MC Tali And many More. Will be doing a Essential listening Easter Weekender Special VERY SOON.
