Flamin’ Hotz

Our boys over at Trouble and Bass have been busy the last couple of months with releases on several different labels. Look out France, these dudes got music coming out on Kitsune, Institubes, and even their own label “Trouble and Bass Records”. But before you can listen to those tracks you should go over to Synthesis Magazine and check out the new mix that Drop the Lime did for them. This that really realy raw step.

“Shout out to Flamin Hotz Records from Philadelphia. Thanks for the Package!” yeah son.
Annie thanks for making my weekend. As an avid listener it’s nice to know that people’s opinions that I respect are interested in what we are doing over here. Look for more heat on the way soon.

Holla!

Bass Bandits EP is now being stocked at fine retailers all over the world so go cop that. Buy doubles to rock the party with 6 bass heavy tracks from Trouble & Bass. You have to see this record in person. I’ve never seen anything like it before. We could go on and on about how much we love it or how many spins its been getting from the Spank Rock crew but we’ll just post up what Turntable Lab said.

Third release from the Flamin Hotz label, who really got their name out there with that Curtis Vodka joint. People loved that record- I mean people way beyond the bmore resurrection hype and mp3 blog shuffle, they were all over that thing when we played it in the store. This new one from the Trouble & Bass crew is still “bmore” based in sound, but goes in way harder than Curtis (I know Sing Sing drums don’t necessarily equal Baltimore Club, but what else are you gonna call this stuff? I think Blu Jemz coined the proper name “WBB” – White Boy Baltimore or something like that). Whereas Curtis Vodka’s record was vaguely pretty and made you feel good- this shit hits you square in the head and might make you wanna punch somebody. It’s good. Tough call but I think my favorite on here is Math Head’s “Magnum(1),” reworking the Magnum P.I. theme with all sorts of breakdowns and party chants. Not cheesy at all, and barely recognizable if you aren’t looking for it, this one is just clean and effective. For something more straight to the dancefloor gut, check “Uptown VIP(2)” from L.Vis, a sped up remix of Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz. The first verse is left intact, but things really get fun when they start fucking with those intro horns (same ones used on “Hips Don’t Lie”) for the remainder of the track. Drop The Lime has two tracks on here, both showing signs of some serious work and more of a grime / dubstep influence. Checkout the slowed down “Juggernaut(3)” with signature dubstep bass drops and the reworking of Ciara’s “Get Up(4).” “Dirty Ride(5)” is a Chamillionaire remix (little late for that), but “Ballers(6)” is an all purpose joint that you could play any time. Another solid one from these guys.

Get it here from Turntable Lab, in Philly exclusively at 611 Records (611 S. 4th street), Juno Records out of the UK or directly from us here.

The record release party was a total smashdown in full rave glory with glow necklaces and the party got shut down early cause people were going too crazy. The next night Drop the Lime got punched in the face after getting kicked off the decks for some U2 mashups because that party got too crazy. I think you can get a picture of the power of this record. Check out pictures from 5151 here.

Bass Bass Bass (airhorn) in your face, make your ass shake. Get ready as Drop The Lime and Mathhead are invading the Tritone this Saturday 12/09 on the heels of their huge “Trouble and Bass” monthly party last week to promote the new release on Flamin Hotz Records, and really just to get crazy in another city for a night. Go over here to look at the pictures and read about the music (the comments are out of control on this site) and then go look at how sweaty this dude got.
I mean this is what I totally look to do every weekend when there are just top notch DJ’s in town. Pre-party the shit out of some Sparks and Red Bull and Vodkas, go to a free party where they encourage people to get crazy, then proceed to go crazy and at 2 in the morning when every one has had enough of me I start screaming at them (which is why I haven’t had a date in two years I think, I should really deconstruct this shit) and go to Mansion. Then while I am there all I do is talk shit to dudes who like “Frat House” and just remember how dope the party was twenty minutes ago and how much cheaper the drinks were. Then I leave telling them that I will never come back since I had to pay the ten dollar cover for forty five minutes and usually see people I know and start telling them how much I like Juke and how Juke really needs to get played in Philly.

So yeah then I walk home and usually wake up at 12:00 and walk down to Café Lift for an impromptu brunch and talk to Tina about her house in Fish Town and then talk to Jenny about her new modern dance that I missed again. Then on the walk home I throw up and get ready to do it all over again, or go to work. Which ever I feel like doing. So come and Get In with Dev 79, Stumbol, Drop The Lime, Mathhead with special walk through appearance by Casi G and 5151. Oh yeah this party is at TriTone which is on 15th and South or something like that. Its right by the Jamaican Jerk Hut from that movie with Cameron Diaz where she sleeps with old men or like sponge baths them. I wonder if that was the inspiration for “My Love”. Which I guarantee will be played several times along with the new “Bass Bandits” EP and I think I would throw some of these in the crowd at the end of the night.

So if you don’t know these dudes get to know them. Trouble and Bass have been killing it the last couple of months with all types of dope remixs and shit from that way out bass place. Go over to there site and check out all of there mixs. Starkbot, Yeah Philly Boyz, just put up a really good mix of some dark underground shit that you need to hear. But our fav mix so far is the Drop The Lime mashment. I had this mix on repeat for like two months. So enjoy.

Yo, this is Casi G, and I am so happy right now. I straight took the pin out of my chair at my office so I can officially lean all the way back. Oh snap I almost fell out of my chair I am so happy (plus I am listening to this new Cira, Jazzypha sampling Kraftwerk forever). You know why I am so happy, Curtis Vodka’s Yeti Bounce is the number one seller at TTL. You know what else? We have just finalized a lot of the tracks on Flamin Hotz 003. Oh snap, you know what else I have finally been able to move a bunch of records out of my hallway so you should be seeing this record in a store near you. If not email me and I will sort you out.

So thank you to everyone who has bought our record, booked our artists, and has supported Flamin Hotz. Big things to come in the next months and we will be getting that heat in your hands just that soon.

So I know people need some more Funk Carioca in their life and we gots that straight heat. Our boy Greg over at Beat Dispora has just come back from a summer down in Rio and he basically A&R’d a whole record for us so look for tha heat soon. He hipped us to this new podcast and this will tide you over for now so Get it here.
