Tiesticle by NateCap

NateCap is a new Drum n' Bass/trash artist on the scene. He is so new that Last.fm don't have a bio on him at the moment. Even if that was the case, he released his EP this week called Tiesticle. An interesting name for an EP I might add. He some balls naming it that I might say. 
His music is a variety of heavy breakdowns and high pitch tunes. It sort of reminds my of Satisfaction by Benni Bennassi. On his EP he remixed Shiny Toy Guns "Stripped", Lights "Toes" and Lana Del Rey's "Kinda Outta Luck". My favourite among the remixes were "Toes". From the tracks that he produced I liked  Widdly Scuds and Ringback, cool punk tracks to me.
In short I can say that Tiesticle is okay.

Tracklist :
1. Shiny Toy Guns – Stripped (NateCap Remix)
2. Lights – Toes (NateCap’s Got The Hots For Lights Remix)
3. Kinda Outta Luck (NateCap Remix)
4. Cleaver

Kill Kill Kill (EP) by Kill the Noise





Well this the first time I have actually heard of Kill the Noise aka Jake Stanczak, an Electro House artist. To me Kill the Noise is more dubstep than Electro House. If I am wrong then Electro House is sounding more and more like dubstep these days. "Kill Kill Kill" is an intersecting name for an EP I have to say, but since it is from Kill the Noise it should not be a surprise.
The music on "Kill Kill Kill" is really strange but interesting and loud, and it has really good tracks on them. The breakdowns and the bass tunes combinations are really cool and nice to listen to especially when it is loud. It is a bit similar to Skrillex but with a less wobbling sound in the background.
One the EP he had the likes of Ultraviolet and Emily Hudson on the track Dying. The likes of Brown & Gammon, Alvin Risk,  KOAN and Dillon Francis provided remixes for some of his track. Some of the remixes were in fact pretty good, others average. My favorite remix was "Dying feat. Ultra Violet Sound & Emily Hudson (Brown & Gammon Remix)" a pretty good one. The track I liked the most was "Real Life (Original Mix)" really good.
I have to say that "Kill Kill Kill" is a good (EP). I hope they make a studio album soon.

1. Kill The Noise (Part I)
