remix monday: designer drugs new vid for old rmx!

Posted by SHIFTdc at 7:05 PM Labels: ,
This remix popped into my inbox almost 2 years ago, but is apparently now available on iTunes? Who cares how late it is, this remix is still one of my favorites and makes me want to dance in a dark room with lots of lasers.


Designer Drugs are a duo whom I consider one of the most progressive and danceable producers/DJs out there. Always on the heavy side, they really transmit the idea of aggressive dance, and... well... you know that's RIGHT up my alley. This is the most ravey of any remix they've made, but it does such very well. Check out the brand new video for the remix, as well!

DO NOT MISS Designer Drugs at U Street Music Hall (11/U NW DC) this weekend! Tickets HERE!

FRESH: 2 new MAJR edits (incl. alphabeat)

Posted by SHIFTdc at 1:38 PM Labels: , , , , ,
Here are a couple great edits I did in the last few days. These songs were great in and of themselves, but just had to be tweaked not to bore the hell out of a dancefloor. I sped up and cut up the breakdown of Alphabeat, and basically cut out all the repetitive fluff to create more momentum on the Cerebral Vortex track. Check 'em out and tell me what you think.

3 tracks: SHIFT favorites!

Posted by SHIFTdc at 9:54 AM Labels: , , ,
Here are three tracks you are sure to hear on Saturday at SHIFT! They are three tracks I love to play, always get the crowd rolling, and will probably be in my arsenal for a long time. Luciana is my favorite dirty skank. I love her more than my luggage. Teeth is maybe my 2nd favorite Gaga track (behind only Dance in the Dark). Lastly, Drop Down is the dark, heavy, infectious side of electro dance that I love. It's completely new rave (which is what I often consider my sound as a DJ to be) and makes me shake it like a shameless prostitute on a budget. SUCH good times! I'm so excited for Saturday. Hurricane SHIFT will be a category 6!

remix monday : designer drugs pop overdose

Posted by SHIFTdc at 10:55 AM Labels: , , , ,
I love Designer Drugs, as many of you know, and to celebrate their glorious return to Washington, DC this weekend (Saturday the 17th at U-Hall), here are a couple more of my favorite remixes by them! I chose the three most pop-heavy of their remixes for this... but that doesn't mean that DD's signature aggression is not splattered all over them. I hope you start to love them as much as I do. I'll see you on the dancefloor Saturday! Enjoy!

remix: scanners + designer drugs

Posted by SHIFTdc at 4:22 PM Labels: , ,
DD are at it again, taking good songs and making them dark and danceable. Definitely check this one out if you love the ravetastic side of dark-dance. (I effin' love it, but I know it's an acquired taste.)

essential tuesday - best of designer drugs

Posted by SHIFTdc at 1:58 PM Labels: ,
We all need a little pick-me-up every once in a while, and few DJs have brought the dance better than Brooklyn's Designer Drugs. They have consistently made me dance, inspired me to make others move, and reminded me that you can cross the darker sounds of pop with the heaviest of dance beats. I really don't think any other DJ duos out there have a better energy and more distinctive sound than DD, and I hope they keep making music. Here are my favorite three remixes of theirs, that you should love:
