The Weekly Shift

SHIFTY NATION:

Back once again with some free music to help get you through your weekend. You all know the routine by now so let’s jump right into it…

First up we have the latest work of the diverse and very elusive MADDEN, someone we came across via the up and coming producer breeding ground known as Soundcloud. MADDEN’s remix of Clockwork‘s “Titan” showcases the producers unconventional methods and influences from various genres of music. There is just something about the way this one builds over time that is powerfully captivating, take a listen for yourself below and grab the free download off of MADDEN’s Soundcloud…

Next up is another collaboration from our buddies ETC!ETC! & Brillz along with Smile Future, titled “Represent Your City”. Working around a sample that gives the track it’s title, this one has just the right amount of bass and high energy synth lines sure to have you chanting along the entire way. The work comes to us for free compliments of Party Like Us Records, and can be downloaded via their Soundcloud. Check it out below…

We here at Shifty Rhythms enjoy free music and we know that our fans do too. Head Honcho of Shifty Nation, Neo Fresco, just recently released a remix of Alex Clare‘s “Too Close” as a gift to his Soundcloud fans for their continuous support of his work. Dark, drum filled, in your face analog techno on this one. Check it out below and grab your gift from Neo Fresco on his Soundcloud…

Our next selection comes to us from New York based DJ/Producer eSenTRiK, and is a remix of UGK‘s “International Players Anthem”. eSenTRiK cleverly utilizes only a portion of the vocal sample as well as the melody, building it up into what eventually becomes a more minimal, bass heavy beat which uses pitched bits of the sampled piece. A great result of what happens when old meets new. Check it out on his Soundcloud below and grab your free download HERE…

To finish things off for this week, we have the latest work from New Jersey based producer Aylen. This guy has been making noise for quite some time now with an array of remixes and originals, spanning through all genres of electronic music, including House, Moombahton and Dubstep. This recent track, a remix of “Rhythm is a Dancer” the popular 90′s hit by Snap!, is yet another example of how Aylen is one of the more well rounded up and coming producers around. With nods from established producers, be sure to keep an eye on this guy. Check out the remix below and pick up your free copy via Aylen’s Soundcloud…

Stay Shifty,
