Conceived in the 80s, Now of Age

There’s been strong demand from the underground for more from the reclusive mixologist, Vidda Vein and his unique take on the dance music who’s pulse we all share. Well the wait is over my fellow Foundationers! Vidda has dropped another flow that’s hot like lava, rolls at you funky, indie and glam all at once, but I digress… Let’s here from the man himself:

This one has a great flow combining the best of what you expect to hear with all the usual tweaks, moody twists and turns that satisfy that urge for the unheard and inspired. A couple of my absolute essential favs you need to listen for is “Tigers in the Fire” (will make you shiver), “Staring at the Sun” has a mind blowing TV on the Radio sample from their first album, “Float Away” has been out for a bit but I finally have been able to properly work it into a set at just the right moment you need it. Hope you enjoy this ride as much as I did!
So without further ado, download this mixset of Bassline, Disco Punk, and Indie Dance, and be sure to leave some love in the comments below!

The Highlights and Low-lifes,
The Color of Sound!

The mixset we are graced with today my fellow Foundationers, is the latest blend cooked up by Bend, Oregon maestro DJ Smoke. This aural h’or doeuvre is best paired with late night grooving, or for that intimate pre-game party. Personally, listening to this with my eyes closed, I envisioned chilling in a hot tub at a ski lodge on a crisp winter night, gazing up at the stars.

With the likes of Booka Shade, Gui Boratto, Stanton Warriors, Si Begg, Tipper, The Knife, and Simian Mobile Disco, this set promises to be minimal, breaks oriented, with progressive construction and just enough tribal drive in the straight beat interludes to get your pelvis moving.

Peep the tracklist, download the set, and show some love in the comments below!
