Introducing the fine young love that is Tybalt. He has some very cool remixes around. Tybalt has really turned out a nice remix of this Damn Arms favourite, which has a very nice groove to it that chugs along nicely. Here are two remixes.

Damn Arms - Edie (Tybalt remix)
Cut Off Your Hands - Closed Eyes (Tybalt remix)

Tybalt will have some original tracks out in early 2008 so keep an eye out.

DAFT PUNK ORIGINALS

After the awesomeness of the Daft Punk Alive Tour hitting Australian shores earlier this month, we thought that we would reintroduce some of their older material that some of you mayor may not be familiar with. Apart from Thomas Bangalter’s Roule releases, Daft Punk issued a A/B side way back in 1994, before Da Funk was initially released, and before Homework made its way onto stereo systems around the world.

A SIDE
Daft Punk - The New Wave (Full Length)
B SIDE
Daft Punk - Assault

MARAL SALMASSI

Introducing the very awesome Maral Salmassi, who has a unique sound that we are in love with here at the fish.

This German girl is a production genius and let’s face it… a very sexy lady. She is all we could want in a woman, she’s sexy, she DJs, she produces and raps. What more could anyone ask for!

She concocts a fine blend of electro-hop some vintage flavours, with a modern booty shaking dancefloor twist. And those are just her originals!

A number of great German artists have been commissioned on remix duties, which only serves to enhance her skills with their different styles. We are very happy to feature her on the blog, and here we present some of her rocking tracks.

There is also a Ben Mono remix of Natural Fun, but we much prefer the Zero Cash version. The Trashtalk remix of Back Up Your Ass is an absolute monster, we suggest you listen right now!
Expect more from miss Salmassi very soon in 2008. Thanks to missingtoof.com for introducing us all to Maral. Check out her myspace on www.myspace.com/maralsalmassi to buy her tracks from Beatport.

WE WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A RETRACTION

Filed under: Music

Merry Christmas for yesterday guys!

And may we start by deleting and retracting our post on a certain DJ that we had posted, we never realised he was this bad. We read up a little, now we know. So do not expect anymore posts on this guy, we were simply misinformed here at the fish.

Not at all to our tastes, and to be honest, we did not even write that post, had a guest author take the rains over the Christmas holiday, in that hope that we would at least have some content up here for you.

Seems we made a bad choice in this kid, and we take the comments of our readers seriously, so expect no more of this rubbish up here.

If anyone that actually does play good music would like to contribute a mix to our page we would appreciate it immensely. We want no more of this immature rubbish on our site.
So to our guest author, it may be pretty obvious, but in case you have not yet realized as it appears you are impossibly unintelligent from your last post, we do not want you back for further posts.

We are only interested in good music here at ONEWORDfish, so any DJs that may read this blog, send us your mixes, and if they are better than this last DJ’s mixes, which shouldn’t be difficult, we will consider posting them. We have no affiliation with the DJ in question, and we would hope that we can continue posting music without any further incidents such as the recent one.
So if you are willing to contribute as an author, is it to much to ask that you have some quality material to offer? We think not. Thanks so much fishes for watching us back-pedal like never before, and we will post some GOOD music soon.

- Sweetheart


UPCOMING FEATURES

Sweetheart here, just letting you all know what is going on in the world of us fish.

We have a new dotcom domain, and we are organising a new layout, new authors and heaps of new goodies, including a record label and music distribution service for our artists, which will be available through this page and a number of well known and established portals.

We will also have a weekly production post, giving production tips for budding electronic music producers. Running parallel to that, we will have a weekly post showcasing a hot new producer each week. We will also have our graphics artists showcase their wares in a series of posts highlighting the indvidual style of you artistic kiddies out there. We are also running a section for upcoming and unsigned bands, showcasing the underground talent that a lot of dance music fans are not within easy reach of. This is on top of the Les Airs post already in place, and all of these sections are open to outside artists, both audio and graphics, so send us your material and if we like it we will post it.

We have a number of parties coming in the next few months, including our launch party, which should be very interesting, and will feature the ONEWORDfish DJs, as well as many special guests, including a number of international and interstate guests, such as Glass Mirrors (FRANCE) and many more. Once this layout and business side of things is set up, expect some serious posting from us. We will have our original tracks availale for download from our own stable of artists soon.

If you still haven’t updated your bookmarks make sure you do. We are now at onewordfish.com.

You probably would have heard at least one of these ‘Tenderoni’ remixes by now, but it’s against the bloggers code not to feature them on your blog!

Chromeo - Tenderoni (Sinden remix)

Classical Sinden. Although it’s not one of my favorite tracks from him, it still possesses the key features that make a sweet remix. A heavy bass line, jacked up beats and delightfully chopped vocals.

Chromeo - Tenderoni (MSTRKFFT remix)
I’m not really a fan of MSTRKRFT.. but you don’t need to be to literally rock out to this remix. If the original wasn’t already funked the funk up, theres no doubt it is now. It’s got MSTRKRFT’s traditional husky distorted bass line but overall, a more rocked out dance feeling.

The High - Noir
Featured on the new One Love, (Mixed by Disco Mafia) The build up in this track is nothing short of amazing. You can feel it coming, but it makes you wait.. wait, a little bit more then it hits you, and it fucking hits you!

Missy Elliot - Gossip Folks (Dirty South Bootleg)
Doing us a service here. This will fit in any set your playing. The rapidly raspy vocals from Missy easily make the track what it is. Although credit is due to Dirty for providing the perfectly fitting resonance.

Wideboys - What Your Thinking (Feat. Sarah Saville - Up Norf Dutty mix)
This next track is provided by our good friends over at thecurbcrawlers. Not really a fan of total bass driven tracks but holy shit man. It starts off sounding like your average Ministry of Sound dancey tune, and then it drops the colossal bass line.

Feedback please?

MIAMI HORROR

Filed under: Music

Hello fishes.

Me again, I thought I’d take a break from my little Valerie theme to focus on an Australian producer from Melbourne, who has been tearing up dancefloors across the world of late with his mix of 80’s disco and electro.

Miami Horror, is a DJ and producer in his early 20s, who has rapidly gained a massive following amongst some members of the indie-dance community here in Australia and beyond.
He has remixed for the likes of Soft Tigers, Faker, Tegan and Sara, The Dirty Secrets, and many more. He also produces for Melbourne group Gameboy/Gamegirl, whos blend of tight rhymes and white hot lyrical flow, have gained them many club gigs and numerous festival spots. Gameboy/Gamegirl comprise of 1 male and 2 female MCs, Chris aka Tranter aka Tranterco aka Ghost Bitch, Jess, Katie, and Miami Horror on the decks.

Ben has 2 more remixes to be released and a collaboration, on top of the Gameboy/Gamegirl EP, before his debut EP Bravado is released in mid-2008. In Melbourne, you can usually catch Miami Horror regularly playing at clubs such as 3rd Class, Eurotrash, Evolution and many many more.

The rest of the time he is spreading his love of all things melodic and funky interstate. He has recently finished a world tour, visiting countries such as the USA and France, and supporting artists such as Digitalism.

Here are number of his songs, download them and see what all the fuss is about.
Here is an original.

And a couple of his remixes

And also a few of his productions with Gameboy/Gamegirl

Miami Horror and Gameboy/Gamegirl can be booked through their manager, Jerry Soer on jerrysoer@sidekick.com.au
