Let’s do something different. This Friday, I wanna feature a selection of DEAD KIDS who’s musical creations exist on the hardest edge of EDM. Straight up, most of y’all can’t handle this. THE ENEMIES – DON’T DIE FOR YOUR SHITTY GOVERNMENT A HARDCORE PUNK CLASSIC gets transformed into a tough-as-nails NEWSTYLE slammer, when Montreal Gabbers, [...]

Let’s take it back to the early days of HARDCORE. The year was 1995, and everyone was on E. Really, they were. Ecstasy makes anything that is cute, kitsch, funny, fuzzy, cuddly, bright, or colourful, hold a lot of value, and too fast suddenly becomes not fast enough. It’s no wonder that there was a [...]

This week, I’m serving up 3 layers of Z JAM goodness, sandwiched between a GLITCH HOP remix, and a sexy MOOMBAH banger. Mmmm mmmmmmm. THE NOTORIOUS BIG – GOING BACK TO CALI (CYMA REMIX) A HIP HOP classic gets a glitchy, big BASS rework, care of Minnesota’s CYMA.   GET MORE CYMA:  TWITTER / SATELLITE [...]

Generally, I’m not a fan of the kind of HARDCORE that amounts to nothing more than distorted drums and screaming samples, but on rare occasion, this type of raw power music really works. Here’s one of those instances. DJ FREAK This English producer began experimenting with music in 1992, and became a pioneer of INDUSTRIAL [...]

I love GABBER. I love ZOMBIES. But could they ever come together? That would be BRUTALLY AWESOME! LENNY DEE Do I really need to write about who LENNY DEE is? He’s just one of NYCs founders of TECHNO, HOUSE, and most notably, HARDCORE. After some key hits, with FRANKIE BONES, under the name, LOONEY TUNES, [...]

We are now officially in the POST-APOCALYPSE. Could there be a more perfect time for the OFFICIAL RELAUNCH of DEAD KIDS GET LIVELY??? No doubt you’ve noticed that DKGL has an exciting new look. Well, the layout isn’t the only thing that’s brand new. Here’s what else is coming… A CASE OF THE MONDAYS Mondays [...]

Hey it’s a monday in a month and I’m posting something! A while back Pete posted a terrible breakcore tune and said something about breakcore being terrible. Well I disagree, to me, breakcore is the truest modern expression of the crazy, off-the-wall, sample-heavy, sometimes tongue-in-cheek , straight-up mental attitude of  proper 92 breakbeat hardcore. I [...]

I can’t decide whether this song is shit or not. I’ve been wrong about this sort of thing before. It’s by Russian EXTREME HARD SOUND producer, DARKLIME, and is offered as a FREE DOWNLOAD on a GABBER compilation, titled MASH BARZ ONE YEAR: ANTISTATIC TAKEOVER. ON THE SHIT SIDE: I don’t think distorted 909 kicks [...]

Below, you will find 4 very different tunes, by Dead Kids. They share in common that they were created by some of the hottest producers in each of their respective genres. Atleast in my opinion. Some of this stuff will likely surprise you.   RONI SIZE – BROWN PAPER BAG (LEE MORTIMER BOOTLEG) One of [...]
