As a sneak preview, check out Crookers playing a brand new track from Schlachthofbronx’s Mudders EP dropping next week right here on Mixpak. Watch it blow up the crowd at the Monegros Desert festival.
Schlachthofbronx’s brand new soca EP, Mudders, drops on Mixpak on the 9th of August. We’re giving you a few days warning so you have time to save your energy, buy a rag and a whistle and get some practice in. Watch out for more previews coming on the site in the next few days.
Mixpak 016 is brought to you by mixtape maestro, Chrissy Murderbot. The Chicago-based DJ and producer is fresh from releasing his debut album on Planet Mu, Women’s Studies, that runs through juke, booty and bashment, and features vocals from some Mixpak favourites, Rubi Dan, MC Zulu and Warrior Queen. Aside from creating 160bpm madness, Murderbot also runs Loose Squares and Sleazetone, and is also possibly the only person in the world with the knowledge, taste and DJ skills to put out a mixtape in a different genre every week for a whole year. His live sets are even more hyperactive than his mixtapes, so he recorded us an exclusive live set at Hump, at the Press Club in Sacramento, last month. It’s packed full of unreleased material and remixes. Get your comfiest shoes on for this one.

Our favourite girl band have been voted Artist of the Week over at MTV Iggy!
This weekend, we stood back and watched as our readers kicked, screamed, accused, and panicked over the amazing candidates in this week’s Artist of the Week vote. But in the end, Brooklyn via Japan girl rockers Hard Nips won the competition. Congratulations, ladies!
With a mantra like “Better sushi, better sex, more rock n roll,” this pink-clad, Blondie/Joan Jett 80s-tough-girl hearkening foursome only looks sweet. Through their 2009 debut album I Sh*t You Not and an EP, they promise that rock ‘n roll will never die, it’ll just get more adorable.
They also did a full interview with the girls, where they discuss satan, sex and hard nips candy.
Farid Slimani has put together what looks like an amazing 120-minute documentary on NYC’s 90s house scene, Back In The House. Peep the 12 minute teaser here and watch for the release.
