[Electronic] Justice – Safe and Sound

Justice
Safe And Sound

Take a moment from your daily Pokemon catching rituals and think back to 2011. Was there even color TV that long ago? How did we get around before Uber? Remember what you were listening to? I would wager that – like all of the TMN staff – you were jamming to Audio, Video, Disco on repeat. Today, almost 5 years since AVD’s debut, French duo and electronic masterminds Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay have returned with their newest release, “Safe and Sound”. Continue reading

[Electro House] Justice – Helix (Gesaffelstein Vision Remix)

French producer Gesaffelstein has a dark, unique style that, to some, may be an acquired taste. If you are patient, though, and allow yourself to enter his trance, the reward is enormous. His latest reworking of the legendary Justice‘s “Helix” is a great example of Gesaff’s funky, filthy bass lines that dare you not to gig. Although it is just Monday, this progressive banger should help bring the weekend to your headphones a bit early. His sound also fits perfectly for inducing extreme focus while on the daily grind.

This remix will be featured on Justice’s upcoming Helix EP, due out tomorrow, January 7th, on iTunes courtesy of Ed Banger Records. Check it below!

Perception Can Be Deceiving

Can you believe the image above is actually 4 perfect circles? Can you believe its been almost 2 years since Justice released its epic remix: Phantom Pt II (Boys Noize Turbine). Ahh, no matter what your answer may have been, our brain will continue to trick us to see things the way we want them to be. I for one, still think this remix is as fresh as the dulce de leche caramel cheesecake I ate today at Cheesecake Factory (If anyone from the Cheesecake Factory headquarters is reading this, I need sponsorship! and send me cheesecake!!). Anyways Enjoy!

You started composing music early on in life, what instruments did you play before starting to remix? And was there a specific event that made you pick up remixing?

I’ve played the piano, guitar, bass, drums and the violin. I’ve always wanted to put together a band but whenever I got a couple of musicians together, we’d always get distracted into doing other things. I realized that If I wanted to make a band, it would have to be just me so I thought about what I could do and *chaching* I heard a song by Girl Talk and thought about remixing! I got down to business and figured out ways to remix mash-ups. I started out with audio samples on Garage band and elevated to the magical, Ableton Live.

Remixing: a lifestyle or a hobby? a part-time job?

A hobby with a touch of income! : )

Is there anything out there you would like to remix but haven’t tried yet?

I’ve always wanted to sample everyday activities like on the subways in new york this guy announces things like “stand clear of the closing doors please.” I think it will be a farmiliarsound to people and familiar things remind people of home and comfort. I’d like my music to relax people and show them they can always have a good time no matter what situation they are in.

I have actually been curious about starting to get my hands dirty into some remixing, any recommendations for someone who is interested in starting? How long does it take you to finish a song?

It takes me about a day to start and finish a song but thats only when I am not distracted by things. I get distracted very easily. I suggest you use the program Ableton Live. One of my top inspirations , Daft Punk uses this program and It can really do magic.

Can you let us know next time you throw your next Bearbot party?

There will be MANY Bearbot parties coming in the near future! WATCH OUT!!!
