OIZO's SF INVASION - 12/3/10

The illusive Mr. Oizo's music has been a staple of dance floors across the world for years. The man, however, has not. Hailing from Paris, Oizo (real name Quentin Dupleux) has been locked away working on and scoring the soundtrack to his second film Rubber. Lucky for us this all changes next month when he takes the decks at 103 Harriet. If you are into electro you cannot afford to miss this show. And tickets are only $16. Check out the live set below.

TICKETS - $16.50 - HERE

Halloween SF: LIVE105 Digs Deep With Killer Spookfest Lineup

The Lineup speaks for itself. Well done.

Here are my Power Rankings:

1.UNDERWORLD: The British duo that’s responsible for some of the biggest tracks in dance music are back with a new album and supporting tour. Never heard of them? Go check out their videos on Youtube playing in front of 100,000 people. Yeah, they are kinda a big deal. In a start studden lineup this is by far my #1 pull.

UNDERWORLD Live @ Priviledge -Ibiza (BBC RadioOne Essential Mix)

2. Wolfgang Gartner: He killed the Sahara mid afternoon on Friday and amazed again at EDC in June. This rising American star throws down one of the hardest sets you will ever experience.

3.MSTRKRFT: At EDC Al-P and JFK brought their signature MSTRKRFT sound and threw down a new and mysterious tracklist that covered their own originals, classic remixes, and even teased us with some unreleased samples. This set will without a doubt be the biggest party at Spookfest this year.

Swedish House Mafia_ KINGS OF CREAMFIELDS

They headlined Electric Daisy Carnival in Los Angeles, had their own tent at Creamfields in the UK, and ran the biggest residency in Ibiza. And that’s just since June. By far the biggest collaboration in dance music, the threesome of Axwel, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Steve Angello aka the Swedish House Mafia are living like rockstars right now and they deserve it. Flawlessly mixing old megahits with their newest singles and remixes, their sets have a bit of a old school sing along feel that is pure rave and has captivated dancefloors all over the globe. Perhaps what stands out about the Swedish House Mafia is their consistency in their mix. Attributed by their customized work on each song they play live, their sets feature many of their own individual remixes and have created the signature SHM sound.

Since June we have been reliving EDC with the Sirius Satelite Radio recording. Now we have another gem courtesy of their recent BBC Radio One Essential Mix recorded live from Creamfields last weekend. Clocking in at a full 2 hours, this mix is a little more adventurous than their set in LA, and I will go out and say I lprefer it. Check it out and let me know what you think.
