Diplo had a few harsh words to say about the whole DJ'ing craft in Vibe Magazine last week.
"...I’m lucky I can produce records, too, because DJs don’t do shit. They just fucking play records..."
I doubt this rant will elicit an A-Trak response.
Note: Diplo will be playing some records at the The Hoxton on September 13th.
Deadmau5's instrumental version of 'Professional Griefers' is currently sitting at #5 on the Beatport 100 while the vocal mix is way back in 24th position. Which one do you prefer? You decide:

For me it's no contest as I find the instrumental mix to be so much better. I've been rocking out to it ever since I first saw Deadmau5 showcase the track in his London Nokia promotion back in November (Starts at 0:36):
www.jasonreevephotography.com Deadmau5 combines with Nokia to illuminate London at an eye-catching event that saw the renowned producer and DJ perform in front of London's iconic Millbank Tower to a backdrop of 4D visuals stretching the full length of the 120m-tall building.
You remember when Danny Tenaglia told the world that he was retiring back in April? Well he sort of refined that statement by clarifying that he will retire from international gigs while only performing in Canada/US. In keeping with that spirit Danny Tenaglia had decided to ride a special bus from his home in New York City to Montreal with a bunch of his fans for a very special event tonight at the famous Stereo Nightclub for an extended set. The last time Tenaglia performed at the 'temple' he played for around 13 hours, how long do you think he will go on tonight?
Montreal is in for a real treat as Danny Tenaglia will probably deliver another epic set that will be the talk of the town.

Calling all producers out there: Paul Oakenfold is working with Beatlab to conduct a remix contest on his latest track called "Come Together". The original key is C minor so get your remix together and submit because Paul Oakenfold will be giving feedback on the highest rated remixes tomorrow. I listened to a few of the highest rated ones and they are totally beatable at this point.

One of the hottest trance producers out there right now, Ummet Ozcan, create a candid and fun trip report on Youtube of his recent gigs in Toronto and Montreal:
Ummet Ozcan presents crOZroads to give you an inside view of his adventures as a dj touring around the world. In this episode Ummet is visiting Montreal and Toronto on a crazy beachfestival and a boat party. Enjoy the show!
The guy talking smack around the 8 minute mark is one of my highlights. That and hearing Ummet drop the Box on that boat.
Ummet Ozcan will be in Calgary tomorrow afternoon at the West Rooftop Patio.
