February 20th, 2012

This month’s Mixpak chart comes from Bert On Beats, the Estonian producer that joined the Mixpak team with his remix of Vybz Kartel’s Half on a Baby in the fall last year. He chooses 10 big tunes warming his February.

1. Sinden – Pull Up Wheel Up feat. Natalie Storm
A new upcoming banger from Sinden! Can’t wait to get my hands on this!

2. Schlachthofbronx ft. Warrior Queen – Dickie Riddim
No. 1 globalbass producers and their new EP

3. C4 – Off Track (Woz remix)
Heard this one few days ago and it totally took me. Woz is my fav UK bass producer from Bristol!

4. Star Eyes – The Night (Hostage remix)
Love this one! Hostage is combining 90s rave pianos and everybodys favorite, BASS! This will do some serious damage on dancefloor.

5. DubPhizix/Skeptical ft. Strategy – Marka
Rolling basses from Manchester , its a perfy combo with a bit of hiphop, dubstep, dnb, globalbass etc. It has been playing in my ipod ever since it came out.

6. Stereotyp feat. Ras B – One In The Chamber
Barefoot creator Stereotyp! One of my favorite producers out there. Always inspiring! You should definitely check out this new album “2021″ and his label’s Crunchtime bandcamp page. Full of gold!

7. Daniel Haaksman – Puerto Rico (Neki Stranac remix)
Ive been playing the original and Neki’s remix a lot! Tropicalicious! Check out also the Man Recordings boss Daniel Haaksman album “Rambazamba”.

8. Poirier feat EJ Von Lyrik – Bring It On
That’s my soca right there!

9. Savage Skulls – Lorimer
Upcoming material from Buraka Som Sistema’s label Enchufada and amazing Savage Skulls! Biiig and Hall sounds from Stockholm.

10. Major Lazer ft. Party Squad – Original Don (Bert On Beats don dada Bootleg)
I’ve been playing the original and my refix back to back almost every weekend. Works!
