winner

 

Last month we launched The Mochipet Psilocybin Samurai Remix Contest presented by TheUntz.com with our friends from Ableton, Keith McMillen Instruments, Serato, iZotope, Drum Pads 24, and DJ TechTools and asked you to create a remix for two songs off Mochipet’s new release Cractal Frunk and Psilocybin Samurai. What we received was nothing short of amazing!

 

 

First off thank you to everyone who submitted remixes for the contest. The production value was top notch and way more than we had ever expected. The judges (Mochipet, edIT of the Glitch Mob, Z-Trip, Ill.Gates, and Mr. Lif) had a extremely hard time picking a clear winner. There was definitely more than one song that stood out as the best remix in terms of composition and production value. However since we have have to pick one we will say our Grand Prize winner is Pockitz! and Runner Up is Dreameater!. More than honorable mentions go out to Atomic Reactor, Otist Reading, Mass Relay, Wobble Maharajas, PRE + END, and Nocturnum. And just so you know that we really did love all these remixes we would like to invite all the honorable mentions to be on the remix album as well! Thank you all for the time and energy you put into this we really appreciate it, keep making amazing music. Keep an eye out for The Mochipet Psilocybin Samurai Remix album which will be out next month!

Mochipet & Mr. Lif team up to hone their inner “Spark” and explore new grounds on this Bass Heavy Industrial Hip­Hop release reminiscent to that of NIN. David (Aka. Mochipet) shares with us the background “I remember vividly when I started working on this track with my friend Mr Lif because it is the exact time my father began having severe health problems. So much so that it forced him to enter the hospital several times soon after. He was in such bad shape I had to stop touring and take time off from music completely. This was a dark time in my life, I stopped working on music all together, my heart was not in it. But even so I knew I had to do something, so what spare time I had I would slowly work on spark. The lyrics within it resonated with me. “If you envision that light through the dark, through the spirit of the heart better follow that spark” It reminded me that it’s often in times of darkness you need the light the most, and sometimes the only place this can come from is from within. I know this song will mean many different things to many different people, as we are all on different paths; but I hope sharing my journey with you will help you on your own in making that Spark!” Includes Remixes by: Kraddy, AMB, Knight Riderz, Omega, Lamebot, Great Scott, ghostNOTES., and Bionik.

Pokemon Wedding New Mochipet Album on The Way…

Pokemon Wedding

ARTIST: Mochipet
TITLE: Pokemon Wedding
CAT-NO: PET100
LABEL: Petnation Music
FORMAT: Digital
RELEASE DATE: 09/02/2014

Pokemon Wedding is the latest offering from the Taiwan born and the California raised producer, David Y Wang. After taking an extended break, David’s music has grown and is more ornate than ever before. Says David: “I had to take a break because my father was in the hospital and touring non-stop was taking a toll on my life. This past year has been an amazing growing time for me. I feel very fortunate to have the privilege to work on things I never had time to do before. I’m already mixing several releases for next year, including some side projects, which I am very excited about.” Pokemon Wedding makes a departure from David’s well known bass oriented hip-hop beats for a more melodic endeavor, which emphasises the use of harmonies and counterpoints. “Ludicolo van Beathoven” sounds like something J Dilla would have made if he was born in the time of Beethoven, and “Till Pet Do Us Part” almost sounds like a collaboration between Daft Punk and Johann Sebastian Bach. Playful yet beautiful, Pokemon Wedding is marriage made in Pocket Monsters.

Tracklisting:
01. Ludicolo van Beathoven
02. Till Pet Do Us Part
03. Shaolin Manatee
04. Pokemon Wedding

ARTIST: Mochipet
TITLE: Rawr Means I Love You
CAT-NO: DCR180
LABEL: Daly City Records
FORMAT: Digital and Limited Edition USB
RELEASE DATE: 03/05/2013

“Rawr Means I Love You” the long awaited Mochipet album is finally here, and it is quite a journey. In traditional Mochipet fashion the album runs the gamout from Electro to Disco to Dubstep to Dancehall and everything not in between! In a world of one-hit singles Mochipet wanted to create something different: “I wanted to create a very eclectic album as I usually do but this time I wanted ever song to have a cohesive link to each other, I wanted it to take you through a journey as you listened through the album.” And quite the journey it is, songs like “Beast” and “Whomp-a-saurus Sex” showcases the staple Mochipet styles of heavy bass and dense drumkits but “Swimming in the Seas of Galaxies” and “Space Between Time” are more melody based and show a more introspective side of David’s repritoire. Songs like “Dionysys Synthony” and “Black Hole Sunrise” even have a cinematic feel, incorpoarting multi-part harmonies more commonly used in Jazz and Classical Music. As with any Mochipet album there is a strong Hip-Hop influence. “Spark” which features a cameo from ex-Def Jux’s member MrLif, to be released later, takes you back to a time when lo-fi samples and found sounds we’re the creative dominance over over-hyped drum machines and Swag. Through out the Time Travels and Black Hole Sunrises the album offers a path of encouragement in today’s declining economy and end of the world landscapes, as a journey outward may indeed be just a journey inward. Or as the Speak and Spell like voice on the title track suggests: “Life, I know it’s rough but just because the world is messed up does not mean you have to be too.”

Tracklisting:
01) Rawr Means I Love You
02) Beast
03) Whomp-a-saurus Sex (Magnum Version)
04) Spark (Instrumental)

NiT GriT and Mochipet Make Danny and the Dinosaur

danny and the dinosaur

Combining the genuine sonic brilliance of NiT GriT with the intense melodic detail-work of Mochipet, “Danny and the Dinosaur” sets forth a new level of expectations for these exemplary California producers. West-Coast Bass at its very finest, funky strobing laser-blasts collide with ever-so-carefully composed layers of countermelodies and textural nuances that will boggle the mind and saturate the listener in an atmosphere of complete musical majesty. A long-time in the works, we are honored to present “Danny and the Dinosaur” as a Grade-A Dubstep.NET Exclusive!
