I know I've been neglecting the needs of the blog again, lately. Life's turned hectic on me, and I'm only finding a couple of hours each night in which I can sleep. Between managing my own career and music, keeping up with other sources, and dealing with "reality", this blog has been put on the backburner, but temporarily.
Expect some bomb-ass tracks soon.

Lost Witness
I've got a pretty little Progressive Trance remix for you this morning, from producer and DJ Ali Wilson. If you haven't heard of her by now, you've probably been living under a rock.
I'm really digging what she's done with this Lost Witness track. You will, too.

Asle pres. Frost
I know I've been neglecting the blog as of late. We haven't been receiving a whole lot of quality submissions, and with the holidays, I haven't had the opportunity to do my usual music searching; but we're prepared to make up for that with this post.
This one is an oldie but a goodie, back from 2005. From Frost (one of the monikers of Asle Bjørn), "Wait For Me (Max Graham's Sidechain Mix) is one track that has stayed in my list of things to definitely play out when I first acquired it in April of 2009 on vinyl. I'm usually not one for Progressive House - this is one of very few exceptions; the riffs and guitar acoustics really provide a mellow and progressive take on the track, yet give it a real punch which many tracks with similar nature lack. The vocal is deep and longing, and has brought me to tears more than once while standing at the decks.
Despite its age, it is one of those "timeless" tracks that you never let go of once you have it.

Bassgiving
Tuesday, November 24 is "Bassgiving" at Paralogia Ultra Lounge in Bricktown. From 9:00PM until 2:00AM, the posh, upscale nightclub located at 200 S. Oklahoma Ave. will be getting their doors blown off by some of Oklahoma City's most well-known DJs - such as DJ Fosterchild and Jacob Jones of NeedleGruv (the residents of SIN Sundays at America's Pub in Bricktown), Ed Crunk of Dance, Robots Dance!, Nouvo - the resident of The Park, One-Winged Angel (who has declared that he will be playing Dubstep and Drum & Bass for this event, which he has never done in public before) and BASSIK, who is in Oklahoma City through the beginning of December from Portland, Oregon.
There is no cover for this event, and it's 21 and up to enter.
The regular open decks' event, "DJ 101 with Ed Crunk", will resume on Tuesday, December 1. Until then, come down for a mid-week explosion of mad bass!

One-Winged Angel & Sara Cherub
Sara Cherub and I have finally finished producing our first track together. "The Devil Is A DJ" is a wicked little break with an evil bassline, built to be dropped on the dance floor during that 1:00AM peak period. If it doesn't make you want to start moving, I'd advise seeking medical attention.

DJ 101
Every Tuesday night, from 9:00 PM until 2:00 AM, is "DJ 101" with Ed Crunk of Dance, Robots, Dance! at Paralogia Ultra Lounge in Bricktown (Downtown Oklahoma City). This weekly event gives new DJs an open decks' night: a chance to play in Oklahoma City's premier nightlife district - Bricktown - in one of the City's most popular venues, alongside a man who has been referred to as one of the "granddaddies of Oklahoma City's club scene." It also gives newbies who want to learn the trade the chance to do just that: learn.
At 37, Ed Crunk is one of the senior DJs and promoters in Oklahoma, who was throwing parties when most of us who are around today were still in diapers.
DJs interested in playing need to show up need to arrive at Paralogia between 9:00-9:30PM and speak to James, the bartender.
No cover charge. 21+ to enter.
