Asian Dan

A power-pop soul anthem.

A-Trak takes a trip down memory lane to the most formative years of modern electronic music. An age that gave birth to Asian Dan and helped guide me through the electronic music worlds. This is a snapshot of some of the best and favorites songs of that era. Without Bloghaus we would not be here. Long live Bloghaus.

A tribute to the man that would not stop smiling.

A-Trak is a “DJ” and here is a Mini Mix that he finally made for Annie Mac where he does “DJ things” like “mixing and scratching” that is sure to make people dance – all in a matter of 5 mins.

Mr. A-Trak takes on the pop-stress, Robyn’s latest track “Indestructible” turning into quite a disco tune. I am noticing a lot of Italo disco house flavor on this track with some serious string action. Definitely a favorite of mine out of A-Trak’s production work these past few months.

Mr. A-Trak strikes back with “Dirty South Dance 2”, an ode to his hip-hop mash-up days – just think a 2manyDJs mixtape made for hip-hop/electro heads. Straight up party jams. Fun times.

A-Trak works his Canadian electro magic transforming a David Guetta tune “Toyfriend” into a swagger tune by mashing/remixing it up with a fellow Canuck, Drake and Birdman’s tune “Money 2 Blow”. And of course it is only appropriate to rename the tune “Loonies to Blow”.

Eh?!

Off of Dirty South Dance Vol.2 coming in March!

In case you don’t know for NYE in LA people here go HARD. 2010 was brought in with a bang courtesy of Destructo, DJ Mehdi, A-Trak, and Boys Noize at the Hollywood Palladium. Here is a sneak peak of the epic confetti and champagne that went down. Backstage was a whole other story – full of drunken antics, hummus (courtesy of A-Trak), and fruit platters (courtesy of Boys Noize), but that is all I can say for now.

Special thanks to the HARD team, Mediacontender.com, Destructo, EIKNARF, and Danny United for making this all happen.

A-Trak’s best remix to date. I love the synth bassline with that filter and the string stabs. Such classic sounding production techniques. This track has already been championed by Busy P, Erol Alkan and Co. down at Parklife in Aussie now it is all your turn to bump this track. Now I think it is time for some original tracks from Mr. A-Trak.

<3 u A-Trak
