Wax Motif • TICKETS

Wax Motif is Australia’s answer to the G-House movement. Being from the land down under, Wax Motif’s unique style maintains the electro bounciness found in much of that ‘Strayan sound. Mix that in with G-House’s framework and you’ve got downright dark and dance-y vibes. We’re bringing him to our WAVS series this Friday (2|6) with support from our brother Bones. See you there, G’s!

This installment of Latest and Greatest is devoted to our friends down by the Ecuator. The talent circulating down south has been consistently impressive. For the past year or so, they’ve experienced an influx of dark tech and if you haven’t already noticed: that’s my favourite electronic style.

Pompeya – Does [The Twelves Remix]

Though not quite dark and techy, a post about Brasil’s electronic scene without a mention of The Twelves is sacrilege. These two have oft been compared to Daft Punk – and for good reason. Here’s their newest funker.

Pompeya – Does (The Twelves Remix)

Malik Mustache – G My Humps

How can you not enjoy a basic club shot taken to new levels? Malik Mustache adds house and tech style to this 2005 hit and takes G-house into the future. G-Future.

Ishimaru – Fu-King EP

The newest EP from Ishimaru features his single Fu-King and remixes by Krash and Sound Cloup. It is dark, hard, and angry techno for the electro G inside us all.

Fractal System – Need You Tonight

Fractal System takes INXS’ 80’s dance-pop classic and adds that Brasil sound. This track is dark, funky, and bassy; and with that famed guitar riff, we definitely need it.

ZHU | Buy THE NIGHTDAY.

After he announced his role in ‘Moves like Ms. Jackson’, ZHU’s name came dripping off everyone’s tongue. ZHU chooses to stay covered by the shroud of his sound; the whole faceless aspect just adds to the deep, dark, and crunchy tech beat and high-pitched vocals. His EP THE NIGHTDAY. just came out and its a superb production of R&B influenced ghetto/deep house for sultry scenes in dark rooms the world over.

Our senses are sated for the time-being. But rest assured, ZHU and his mysterious ‘Generation Why’ movement will be staying in our limelight.

Claptone | Karma Kid. | The M Machine | Wilks

Claptone

Courtesy of Mixmag, Claptone’s Control is now a free download. We remember him dropping this at HARD Day of the Dead. It felt so good.

Karma Kid

Karma Kid’s newest release is a perfect blend of house and darkroom dance for heating things up.

The M Machine

This trio always surprises us with their high energy electro. Newest track Superflat doesn’t hold back. Catch them live at the Avalon on February 14 or at The Observatory on the 15th!

Wilks

LA G-House frontrunner Wilks’ newest track, G-Thang, kicks up the nostalgia. We’re leaning so heavy.
