jody breeze – the way i move
ghettophiles is a chicago label + artist collective tagged as juke/footwork. but beyond labels, when everything falls into place, it surpasses dance music and enters the realm of true, emotive electronic creations. simple and effective, this sade recontextualization by newcomer jody breeze transports the listener to an elevated earth where there are no walls, just […]

boylan tekz aug 2011 ftwk by boylan
boylan was generous enough to give us this listen to what’s been going on inside ghettoteckz headquarters as of late, with first listens to tracks that are less than a month since conception. new rashad collab “gettin it” achieves levels of bassquake far beyond what most producers would consider acceptable. hope you’ve got subs.

dJ spinn – addicted
dJ manny – still playing
boylan – OMM (tekz everyday)
dJ Spinn – jealousy
traxman – get dem niggaz of my shit
dj spinn – 187 trax
dj manny – my click
boylan and dj rashad – gettin it
dj rashad – undisputed
dj spinnn – winnin
dj rashad – ghetto tek musik
dj manny – lap dance
boylan manny rashad – drinkin

this new mix from earl collects his favorite traxman cuts. not necessarily all new, but packed with surprisingly beauty-full delights.
My Favorite Traxxman Trackz (Dj Earl Mixx) by Dj Earl
although he excluded a contender for our favorite:

dj diamond’s new lp flight muzik is the first we’ve heard from him since his stunningly bizarre entries on the bangs & works comp, and this one lives up in its next-level, mortal kombat weirdness:

new dj phil ep out now on ghettophiles

brooklyn’s slava had us pretty gobsmacked when he entered juke territory in a recent live set. i think the chicago cats would be proud:

guest radio mix: wills glasspiegel
this past thursday on our radio programme, we were joined by wills glasspiegel, a brooklyn-based media producer and music manager who manages Janka Nabay and Shangaan Electro. he is currently managing The Present and working on a program now for All Things Considered about juke music in Chicago, his hometown. wills stopped by newtown armed with exclusive chicago footwork, field recordings, janka jams, shangaan electro, and tribal cumbia. he also talked to us about african/shangaan music, and had janka give us a call. check his blog, soundtravels.
guest radio mix: wills glasspiegel
weird magic joins janka nabay, dutch e germ (ggd), and bonjay tonight at the knitting factory.
excursions is our weekly radio show on newtown radio. tune into newtownradio.com thursday from 5-7pm for musical journeys and special guests. two weeks ago for our inaugural broacast we premiered a guest mix by gatekeeper. this thursday, we will feature a special in-studio performance by greatest hits (featuring sam from outer limits recordings).
jody breeze – the way i move
ghettophiles is a chicago label + artist collective tagged as juke/footwork. but beyond labels, when everything falls into place, it surpasses dance music and enters the realm of true, emotive electronic creations.
simple and effective, this sade recontextualization by newcomer jody breeze transports the listener to an elevated earth where there are no walls, just bass. the result strikes many chords: it’s danceable yet hypnotic and soothing, matured modern dance music with intentions to create a world that is beautiful and new and futuristic yet still heavily indebted to the past.
whatever it is, this track is sounding like the pinnacle of music right now.
(do NOT listen on laptop speakers.)
bonus ghettophiles:
DJ Spinn – YYYY
catch jody’s footwork at the beginning of the video: (here too.)

audiovisual: last ghe20 gothik
Last night was the final episode of ghe20 gothik, a swirling, jerking celebration of our inner raver avatars. Dj’s decended from the next level giving earthlings an idea what it sounds like up there. dj rashad, 1/2 of the conspiracy behind ghettoteknitianz graced us with his juke. the ceiling split open revealing a virtual world above, where the footwork goes as fast as your processor can handle.
