Todd Terry Presents 'Freestyle Forever‏'

Who is the greatest House DJ of the world? It's of course my friend Todd Terry. He has released a new material entitled 'Freestyle Forever' which contains classic breakbeats and vocal freestyle records of the late 1980's and 1990's updated and fresh for 2013.   
 
Todd Terry has produced some of the most memorable freestyle classics of all time like Coro’s "Where Are You Tonight" and Giggles’ "Love Letter". Now he’s bringing new life to this genre with an all new album.
 
Todd wrote the tracks and assembled a collection of newcomers and veterens such as Shannon (Let The Music Play) and Tony Moran (member of Latin Rascals) to add the vocals to these tracks.
 
You need to open your ears to appreciate the tracks on 'Freestyle Forever', a magical album that will bring you back sweet memories!

I'm also loving the promo video for this amazing album, check it out below.

Cardiff Based DJ F-Block's Latest Breakbeat Electroswing EP, 'Wine or Grind'

"Sure to turn the dancefloor into a full on skank-athon."
Cardiff-based F-Block follows up his recent slew of success on labels such as Dirty Dubster and Tru Funk with another trio of instant party-rippers. "Back Up" starts off all deep and jazzed but gets wilder and wilder as the dynamic develops. "Turnitup!" takes a well-known Public Enemy vocal and plasters it over a sturdy, slo-mo swagger riddim with added p-funk nuances. Finally "Wine Or Grind" takes Prince Buster for a waltz in D&B town. Instant floor-skankage guaranteed.

Syria's Club Scene Still Active Despite The War

My great grandfather was born in Syria, he was a Christian Orthodox man who also enjoyed music and parties as myself. I have never been there, but I still believe that these people still have the right to love life and be happy.  
 
The 30-month-old Syrian civil war is estimated to have killed around 100,000 so far, and around a dozen nightclubs remain open to revellers in Damascus, capital. 
 
These days most people lock themselves fearfully in their homes, but a few still venture out, on a mission to drown out the thunder of artillery fire with the boom of Electronic Dance Music and Disco.
 
Check out below these exclusive images + a video of the best night clubs in Syria. Some of them stay open until 2am, but their managers can't reveal its names to the media for fear of reprisals.

Who Stole DJ Sneak USB Pen Drive?

Last Friday, House Music Gangster DJ Sneak wrote on his Facebook account:
 
"Some asshole stole one of my USBs tonight. I hope you learn something from it since you has the balls to grab it. I have it back up btw."

Since then, everybody wants to know who got it . . . 
 
Here are the three main suspects:
 
a) Joris Voorn
 
b) Swedish House Mafia
 
c) David Guetta
 
Anyway, all I know is that karma will come back to kick whoever it is in the nuts.
 
Keep rocking DJ Sneak, here at Electro WOW we love the real meaning of HOUSE music!
