VIDEO: Breakbot – Live @ Rock’n Solex

Crimson — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 03:01:10 +0000

A full length, relatively high quality video of Breakbot’s live set at Rock’n Solex surfaced on youtube recently, and it is great seeing what this Ed Banger ground breaker has been up to in lieu of releasing new tracks. He is truly among the hottest post-deck DJs at the moment, and this hour long set spans a great blend of disco, electro, and house. Check it out.

Sounds of Summer II: Chief & Crimson

Chief — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 17:14:01 +0000

This has been a good year for Dipped in Dollars. From getting a mention in the Guardian, previewing Jai Paul‘s album in XL’s New York office, interviewing artists like Gilles Peterson, Jensen Sportag and Onra to premiering exclusive mixes by Solar Bears, Teams, and Streets Of Beige, our second year has been filled with lots of fun. Hopefully we’ve been able to influence a few record purchases as well. There already are some big things in store for our third year, and Crimson and I have also made mixes to thank you all for the good times.

Breakbot – The Lazy Sunday Selecta

Crimson — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 00:09:29 +0000

Electronic music’s Prince of Pop has dished us quite the myriad of jams with The Lazy Sunday Selecta. A real treat for the summer season, and an impressive permeation through the annals of some of history’s purest pop tracks, Breakbot nails it on the head with this mix. Give it a listen below.

Breakbot – “Fantasy” (feat. Ruckazoid)

Crimson — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 05:59:41 +0000

Breakbot threw us a tasty bone with his latest release, Fantasy, on Ed Banger‘s record store day Bee Sides release. It is in a vein similar to his last released track (Shades Of Black) and continues to demonstrate his ability to reincarnate disco while applying his own gloss. Look forward to a proper LP later on in the year.

Metronomy – “A Thing For Me” (Breakbot Remix)

Chief — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 16:30:05 +0000

Breakbot has been busy finishing up his first official LP for Ed Banger Records for the time being, and I recently discovered this remix he did for Metronomy a few years ago. This one is up there with his reworks of Digitalism and Air. Metronomy‘s English Riviera will be out everywhere on April 19th.

Chief’s Top Remixes Of 2k10

Chief — Sun, 12 Dec 2010 18:19:57 +0000

Remixes have become vehicles of influence. They allow an artist to define themselves in relation to their contemporaries, as well as introduce their sound to a wider audience. My favorite artists seem to understand this concept, and this list of remixes embraces an evolution in the industry.

Honorable Mentions:

The XX – Basic Space (Mount Kimbie Remix)
This would have been my top remix of 2k9 if I had been aware of its existence.

The Beatles – And I Love Her (Allure Remix)

Solar Bears – Twin Stars (Lone Remix)

10. Kuhn – Quiet Nights (Young Montana Remix)

9. Deerhunter – Helicopter (Star Slinger Remix)

Matthew Dear – “You Put A Smell On Me” (Breakbot Remix)

Chief — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 06:00:24 +0000

Breakbot is king at spinning anything into gold, and I love what he’s done with Matthew Dear‘s You Put A Smell On Me. The eery, hard-hitting original is bathed in a Breakbot aesthetic that still resonates in these winter months. It took many years for Make You Mine to be released, and we hopefully won’t be waiting that long for a proper LP.

Aeroplane – “Without Lies” (Breakbot Remix)

Chief — Fri, 12 Nov 2010 07:44:46 +0000

I don’t know how the guys at Scottish Friction were able to capture this Breakbot remix of Aeroplane weeks before its official premiere, but it needs to be listened to. This has to be my favorite Breakbot remix of the year. You owe it to yourself to check him out.

Breakbot – Iron Zombie (NEUS Remix)

Chief — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 07:13:03 +0000

Crimson played me this NEUS remix of Breakbot‘s Iron Zombie in the studio last week, and I’m going to start throwing this in my sets as soon as possible. The Mount Kimbie-esque pitch shifted vocals really hit.
