Well, consistency is the thing isn't it. As you may have NOT noticed since approximately 0.4 people on average listen to this song of the day thing, I missed a few days there. Mainly because I was busy, partly because whenever I thought about doing it, I wasn't sure if that 0.4 person would even care either way. Whatever.
Deadmau5 finally released Maths today after claiming to getting the ball rolling on releasing it over a month ago. Not like you care to know, but apparently his new house/apartment is almost finished being remodeled along with a new studio, so once that shit is done, he should be releasing some stuff more consistently....speaking of which... dang it.
Here's video of him performing live on what looks like the back of the boat at the beginning of MGS2 for what looks like some stupid idiot people without his mau5head on.

2/13/2012 Song of the Day!
It's monday. Know those days when you wake up and you want to just get out of bed and punch your roommate in the face? I don't feel like that today. But this is the type of song that if it were your alarm clock, it would probably make you do literally punch the nearest person to you in the f'ing face, simply because they didn't understand how FULL f'ing BLAST this song is. It's monday, which means you might get pissed at someone for some stupid 1st world bullshit, or if you are in a third world country reading this post during your once a month trip to the 3 computer dial-up comp. lab in your school, you may not understand the complex inner-workings of a spoiled 1st world brain, so just enjoy this song and let it inspire feelings of hatred for America or whatever else. Or if you are still TOO chill and Dalai Lama to indulge the Dark Side this morning, then GTFO, it's monday godsdammit.
Bare is my favorite hard bass producer, and this remix of his is like a 90's heavy metal scream fest with bass lines from tomorrow.

2/12/2012 Song of the Des!
Is today a happy day? Barring any firery wrecks, yes, very happy. Enjoy this awesome nu disco track from Scandinavian Todd Terje. It's more complex than it sounds like at first so give it a chance. Below is the description of the track by another blogger who probably knows more about music than I do so I won't try. This song was featured on NPR's song of the day blog a week or two ago, and was part of the reason I wanted to start a song of the day thing myself.
"...Terje steps out with a winning four-track EP titled It's the Arps — and it is, because all the music was made with a classic old ARP synthesizer. Terje's range and dynamism is on full display in Arps' lead track, "Inspector Norse," which starts with a cosmic whoosh before settling into a hopping little disco groove.
"At first, the track doesn't sound like much, but as it builds over nearly seven minutes, things coalesce neatly: The lead "piano" line begins meanderingly but soon settles into a fetching tune, and when it drops out about two and a half minutes in, a computery-sounding line that had been playing support steps into the limelight and steals the show. It crests and ebbs differently for the rest of its time, too, but that groove remains rock-solid, impossible to resist, and critical to what's already one of 2012's defining dance tracks." - Michaelangelo Matos

2/11/2012 Song of the Des!
It's cold and the slightest of snow flurries are flurrying here in Athens, OH today. But I don't feel depressed. I tried to choose a techno track that captured the serenity and the silence of the outside AND the not depressed mood I'm in for whatever reason. It's 'Leaving' by Gregor Tresher.

2/10/2012 Song of the Day!
Here's a beautiful classic track from one of my favorite producers, Paul Keeley, who has been off the grid for over a year at least. Eim so HAAD to zat (Bing translation: That sucks.) This is Life Aquatic. The video is unrelated, fan-made, but kind of related because the dude ripped clips of water from Planet EARTH.

2/9/2012 Song of the Day
Picked up a part-time job this week and instantly became SO frakking busy i didn't even have a chance to do the song of the day for wednesday... :( Not like anyone cares. :'(
And since im up late working, 2/9's SOD is posted early. It's thursday now and i feel like a darker grinding marching techno track from Good ol' Dutch duo Mason. It's called 'Ignite'. Keep truckin' the weekend is on the horizon... somewhere far far away on the horizon...

Song of the Day 2/7/2012!
Today's song of the day is actually 87 songs. In a mix. 84 minutes long. From Dieselboy. He released this mix yesterday and was all jacked about it, and I quote:
"My goal is to make the most intricate, layered, and amazing mix that’s ever been done. Period. I’m not trying to just put out a mix; I’m trying to put out a mix that other DJs will listen to and aspire TO do. I don’t fuck around. I want to be amazing."
SO, if you feel like listening to like 60 Drum & Bass tracks and the rest dubstep tracks all, at least mathematically, less than one minute, then you're about to have a great freaking tuesday.
