Noises, sequenced into rhythm

Ok so today is the first time we're using our new music player, let us know what you think. We think you'll really enjoy it, it has higher quality audio than our old flash player and you dont have to go through zippyshare. All you do is hit the play button next to the song to play it and right click---> download linked file to download the song. Onto the music..

This track has been blowing up the blogosphere, but not without good reason. Lazy Rich takes this Porter Robinson track to the next level here, combining grinding electro with splashes of prog-house chords to make a dancefloor killer of massive proportions.

I don't know much about the Canadian Lazy Rich, but this other remix has been in my library for a while and it's equally wonderful to listen to. He kind of reminds me of some older Wolfgang Gartner.

After watching him literally tear apart hundreds of concertgoers at Hard Haunted Mansion, I've thought that Brodinski is one of the most exciting talents to emerge for a while. He's done a lot of work with fellow Frenchman, Noob, such as the older (but still really awesome) Oblivion Remix which I've added below the new track. Both of the two artists have a deeper, sort of techy, but also sort of dutch sound, that's distinctive and highly addicting. This new track they've done, Cajou Club, seems to be an evolution of the sound that was present on Oblivion. I like where they're headed

Speaking of Ed Banger, if we ever get around to making a best of 2010 list, I'm sure Cassius' I <3 U SO will be near the top as one of 2010's greatest set-closers. JFK has done a complete reworking of it here, twisting the slower anthemic ballad that it was into a newer, disco-electro fueled dancefloor monster. JFK has been really impressive lately, although it'd be nice to see some new MSTRKRFT every once in a while..

This new Jokers Of The Scene track was released on Fools Gold, which was a little surprising to me since a 9 minute epic electronica piece doesn't really seem like something you'd associate with mr A-Trak. I suppose it just means the man knows talent when he sees it. Either way, this track is beautiful and expansive. Bright & Shiny approved.

I was browsing around youtube the other day only to find this hilarious and kind of awesome video with a Dada Life song I was unfamiliar with. After a little research I found out it was basically their first song to get them noticed. It sounds surprisingly mature considering it was one of their first tracks, almost a little more controlled than some of the stuff they're doing now. Anyway, if you missed it like me when it came out, check it out below.

C'mon Give Me A Break

Starsmith first caught my attention for his production on Ellie Goulding's fantastic single "Starry Eyed." As an up and coming pop producer, I never have expected much from his original mixes, but this track is a surprisingly delightful nu-disco house jam. Look out for his debut solo single to be released on Neon Gold, coming this October 18th.

Parisian new-kids-on-the-block Gliterium have here some delicious disco house flavor for your ear.

I know it might seem like the world is coming to an end, what with Bright & Shiny posting TWO dubstep songs in a week, but at least let me try to explain. I heard this song at a frathouse the other night, and was drawn to the dank hip-hop beat at the beginning. When the wompwomp comes in the songs goes downhill fast, but I find myself able to tolerate this sort of dubstep, or Dup-Hop as we here at Bright & Shiny have coined it, because of the compelling hip-hop beat fixed firmly beneath the womps, as opposed to the usual reggae-inspired dub beats or driven d&b beats which dominate the dubstep landscape. Props to Bassnectar.

We've been supporting Porter Robinson, 19 year old from Chapel Hill, NC, for quite a while now. I have not been too impressed by his new single "I'm On Fire," no disrespect to PK, but there's no doubting the kid is talented and I do have a couple of incredible remixes to share with you all. Right from the very beginning of every track you can distinctly hear the presence of Robinson's self-appointed primary influence, Wolfgang Gartner. And this is most certainly a good thing. Robinson takes the programming insanity that Gartner brings to the table and proceeds to smash it into as many things as he can. Robinson's frenetic productions have clear elements of electro, house, dubstep, progressive house and trance, yet as a whole his productions sound cohesive and resist genre categorization. Well played, my friend. First up is Robinson's hotly anticipated collaboration with Lazy Rich, "Hello," featuring Sue Cho on vocals. Second is his remix of Tim Berg's "Seek Bromance," a song whose many iterations never really really clicked with me. This outstanding remix gives the prog house anthem a thick electro sheen.

the Clubhaus

Australian duo Light Year have come up with a winning combination. "Sex Education" blends a heaping serving of funk with wonderfully strange computer noises reminiscent of Soulwax/2 Many DJs. Maybe that's why they've been getting so much support from the brothers Dawaele and good friend Tiga. Yeah, you need to hear this fucking song. No release information yet, but these two are working on a new EP entitled "Five Girls" so keep your eyes out for some more of this techno funk.
Light Year - Sex Education


Big, fat yet deep, prog house bomb from the afrolatin Dutch master, Gregor Salto. I love Salto's consistently fantastic employment of knocking afrolatin drum patterns, but he even used a like pattern for his lead synth this time around. The Dutch are ahead of the game, like usual. Watch out for the final drop where Salto throws the lead synths from the original into the mix, forging an undeniable clubhaus anthem.

Sir Real

If you want me you can find me in the 'A'

OKAY it's Saturday. Let's get things started seeing as there is partying to be done, it is the weekend after all.

We're going to take this kinda slow starting with a brunch of sorts. This Aeroplane remix of "Baby I'm Yours" by the one of a kind Breakbot deals out two full servings of funk wrapped in your recommended daily value of groove. Just snap your fingers when you get to a 1.25 minutes.
Breakbot - Baby I'm Yours ft. Irfane (Aeroplane Remix)



Lazy Rich's programming ability is evidenced here on an electro jam with funky, stuttering progressive synths.
Toby Emerson - Never Comin' Down (Lazy Rich Remix)



Culture has found this song to be mentally handicapped. That's right, this track is totally retarded. Things don't start to get started until 1:00, where you'll find the latin-inspired synth lurking in your speakers.
Da Hool - Meet Her at the Love Parade (Nom De Strip Remix)



New Weezy single featuring Drake. Consider this a warning: this is the Lil Wayne we used to love, not the one who's been spreading his rap genius too thinly as of late. This joint is thoroughly unreleased.
Lil Wayne - Right Above It ft. Drake (CDQ/No DJ)



the Clubhaus
So this is a new feature I'll be doing probably every post, but we’ll see how it goes. Remember when you were a kid and you had a tree house and it was called the clubhouse and no girls were allowed and all you did was read comics and play Cowboys and Indians and other such ultra-violent, make-believe games? Well I don’t, ‘cause I never had a fucking tree house, who do you think I am. Anyway, back to the ‘90s pop-culture clubhouse reference—this is like that except girls are totally allowed and instead of reading comics all we do is rave our faces off. The Clubhaus will be providing you with the best of the hard, big room sounds you seek this holiday season. However, there are rules. The first rule of the Clubhaus is that all tracks must be played as loud as possible. If this rule is not followed you are to be found in violation of NAFTA and extradited from the Clubhaus, as you clearly do not belong and are probably a terrorist. Other than that the Clubhaus is your playground and the vanguard of unspeakably incomprehensible club music the world over. Come here for your fix of music that belongs only in a club, the kind of music that makes you say “What the fuck, that was just loud-ass computer noises!” the first time you hear it, the kind of music that shouldn’t be understood but feels good.

Both of these guys are totally nuts, so if you put 'em together its just not fair... Shit gets real real at 2 minutes flat, although as with all works of art I suggest you give the buildup a solid listen.
Wolfgang Gartner & Mark Knight - Conscindo (Original Club Mix)

Ignore that stupid electronic plunking noise for the first minute, vocals are phenomenal.

Wynter Gordon - Dirty Talk (Laidback Luke Remix)

Stuck somewhere between progressive and electro house Sidney Samson found this hybrid banger.

Treasure Fingers
