I’m in Paris at the moment, stuck, waiting for the Eurostar to get it’s act together… not a bad thing really.
Everytime I go on holiday there is a mainstream track that infects my ears (in a good way). However I don’t think I’ve ever had one that actualy samples a holiday theme tune. Pitbull has managed to sleeze up the Nightcrawlers posers anthem Push The Feeling On, for some crunked out club action.
The festive season is upon us, so make sure your party bag is packed with novelty Christmas tracks. KW Griff, DJ Booman and Jimmy Jones AKA the Doo Dew Kids have dropped some high spirits Bmore over at Bmoreoriginal.com. If Walking in the Air isn’t doing it for you on the dancefloor, then this one is sure to make it bounce!

Proyecto Uno are the New York based pioneers of an older sound that’s caught my ear of late – Merenhouse. A combination of merengue’s sexy rhythms, congas, horns etc… Latin rap, pounding house beats and some filthy as fuck video’s. Talk about progressive, the video to El Tiburon get’s cheekier as it goes on. If you want the ladies to hit the floor, get on a merenhouse tip!
If you followed the old Fly Beat Music blog then you may have noticed how bland it was, and how uneventful it got. This was mainly because of a shit blogging engine. We have now upgraded to a lovely WordPress blog for Fly Blog v2.0, 2010 – The first year of the future. 2010, because that’s when we intend to make it official, and because as a child this always felt like the future to me (How did I get here so fast!?). For now, consider this ground very much in the beta stage.
Fly Beat Music isn’t out to follow or set trends, but instead sets out to discover new developments in music for the dancefloor. We aim to showcase this on the label, and also on this blog. So keep up with us and you won’t be exposing yourself to “the most upfront dance music”, there are plenty of blogs around for that! Instead you’ll be keeping in-tune with whatever we can find from small, local club scenes to obscure developments in established genres, or revisiting forgotten times, even styles that may not have made big waves when they first hit the record stores… Yes you are right in thinking there are lots of blogs that do this too, but the information fields are so vast you are bound to discover something different on each one, as long as each blog makes its own individual effort.
Exclusive mixsets, tunes, bootlegs, artwork, news and meanderings are all set to tarnish these pages in good time. You can be ready to see what drops by subscribing to our RSS feed up in the top righthand corner there.
