You know its going to be a good week

A-ux

You know its going to be a good week when its when we receive two new tracks from two of Resonator’s favorites: A-ux and Spitzer.

Today our boy A-ux brings us a 100% new and original track for your aural enjoyment. I beleive I summed this up nicely over aim, so why add to it?

(3:21:35 PM) hacks: man, a-ux sent me a new track and its fucking wicked
(3:22:12 PM) trixie: yeah?
(3:22:14 PM) trixie: what kind of stuff?
(3:22:53 PM) hacks: like, total filtered valerie-summer-jam, wave your hands in the air and be all warm and cuddly house

Its a track inspired by the craziness that is the world right now and it aims to help bring warmness, joy and togetherness to all those whom listen. I think its a great beginning of the summer jam, and I’m sure it’ll soon be popping up in the summer mixes flooding your inbox.

Like what you hear? (I hope so!) Be sure to check out our previous postings full of some more killer jams by him.

We here @ Resonator always want to wish him luck in the next stage of his journey; Au-x is a native South Korean and about to embark on his two years of required military service. All the luck in the future man, be safe, and above all else: keep producing. You should wish him the same.

With love,

The Resonator Family





The Return of A-ux

A-ux

So in the midst of us “doing nothing but posting flyers” we managed to throw our 4 year birthday bash with good success, some amazing cupcakes, some lessons learned for next time and quite a few hangovers. However, in that time, I’ve been sitting on quite a few tracks and making our mp3 blog well, less than mp3ed.

What’s better to fix that than a new remix from our friend A-ux?

He hit us up with a sold remix of Mochipet’s remix/cover of “Sharp Dressed Man” and its totally a head banging grungy dance track. He notches up the distorted synths, takes out a little of the funkiness, and accelerates the energy into overdrive. Both the original and this are great, but this totally invokes a 3am, arms flailing dance party with a few too many strobe effects going off (in a good way!)

A-ux It

A-ux

Local New Yorker A-ux hit us up with some great tracks last week, and it would be a shame to let them languish any longer. They’re pretty diverse, with “Journey to New Hope” being something you’d expect to hear on one of the old Magik CDs and his Monosurround remix being a dance floor banger.

Most of his work his original and steams from his classical piano background mixed up with a solid technical prowess. You can tell he’s got the talent and the ear, since all his tracks are mastered well, produced well, are musically interesting.. and.. oh yeah! They kinda rock.

We’ll start with “Journey to New Hope” –its a total closet epic trance track. I say that in dearest affection as someone who owns enough Epic Trance records to feed a third world country (so shush all you rave haters who unknowingly dance to hard house). It definitely has a throw back feel for me, but the production is top notch and wouldn’t be too out of place in a lot of sets you hear these days. Hell, check it out for yourself:

“Neon Generation” is a slick track that kinda fits into the Valerie mold of tracks: dancey while being low key and still manages to get some funkiness into it as well. Pretty good addition to anyone’s playlist.

His Monosurround remix is the track I’m sure most of you will enjoy most. With a pounding 4/4 bassline, grungy FM bass synth and driving hi-hats, its got all the elements necessary to make the kids get down on the dance floor. Plus the gritty vocals of Monosurround keep up the energy and provided a nice vocal hook to worm its way into your head.

Be sure and swing by his MySpace and leave a nice Resonator HELLO! for him. I’m sure we’ll hear more from him in the future as well.
