3 Free Tracks, New Release & Free Mix + Exclusive Interview - Cut & Slice


That's right everybody, a little bit of weekend blog action for you today. I don't often have time to squeeze em in on the weekends but I've got some wicked stuff I wanted to share with you coming from Cut & Slice.

"Sophie's Night Out" is Cut & Slice's debut release on Plasmapool's sub-label Plasma.Digital. If you like bangin' Electro House with wobbling bass, wicked vocals and huge synths, then you are gonna love this speaker eater. Big breaks, big leads and big energy from start to finish, what more can you ask for in a tune!

If it's free business you're after, we've got three tunas from Cut & Slice that you're definitely going to want to get your hands on starting off with the super funkalicious "If This is Funk I Want My Money Back" Classic sampling and a hard driving bassline go back and forth with cheeky keys and plenty of edits.



Next up is "Fresh Meat Disco" which takes things into Dubstep territory as far as the low ends go with talking bits abound and heavy synth work in the breakdowns.



Rounding things out is "No More Superheroes" which is a little more laid back but still plenty up beat and funky as a mofo.





If you want a taste of what Cut & Slice sounds like in the mix, check out "Cut N' Sliced Vol.1" which brings us thirty minutes of woofer rockers from the likes of Kaskade & Skrillex, Lazy Rich and the Swedish House Mafia. Grab it now and start your Saturday off right, with some heavy bassline business.

Uhh… can’t remember. Maybe Metallica’s Black Album?

 

3. – How did you first get involved with the Electronic music culture and what was the first event that you attended?
