Hostage – Dubtch

Got some new stuff in from our favourite north of the border raver Hostage. This track, Dubtch, has apparently been described as “some kind of Dutch House meets dubstep hybrid”. Sound interested? Thought so.

Favoured by Crookers and Annie Mac, we’re seeing a good 2010 for Hostage so far and I’m sure there’s more exciting stuff to come.

Don’t forget to check out our past postings of Achtung! and new track Otis. And for good measure, here’s another one bezzler to put on your dancing shoes to:

Hostage – Otis

New stuff from Scottish rave magician Hostage. Track is called Otis and discusses things we can’t mention here but it’s an awesome bouncy dance track which he’s giving out for free over at Noise Porn. Don’t worry though, you can get your copy right here.

Hostage’s tunes are different from your standard electro DJ. He seems to be on a mission to bring back rave, not nu-rave or some other poor imitation, but he gives a genuine nod to the hedonistic dance music back in the late 80’s/early 90’s, while at the same time keeping things fresh and, above all, BIG. We’re a big fan of his here as you can probably tell.

Achtung! Hostage in the mix!

Scotland’s Hostage returns was an absolute bezzler! After his recent Valhalla EP got a lotta lotta love across the blogosphere, he’s come back with Achtung! a four-minute rollercoaster of a rave-up which uses elements of old skool acid house, modern day electro and some quality (possibly bongo-based) breaks to boot. Brilliant.

Props to the ever-brilliant Noiseporn for the heads up on this one.
