Slanted Black Records

Craig Mitchell from Slanted Black Records recently hit us up by e-mail with some new releases from their label. Slanted Black has a nice array of quality artists crafting progressive & tech house as well as some minimal. Check out their website here, or for a more complete preview of what they sound like, preview and purchase their tracks on Beatport.

Craig Mitchell - America (Original Mix)
Not the most mind-blowing of tracks but the concept is great here. Clips from Presidential Elect Barack Obama's acceptance speech are placed on top of a dark minimal tech-house beat. Craig Mitchell: Myspace, Beatport.

Dave From Dallas - Inside (Drum Movement Mix)
Lunic Ft. Edgar Donoso - No Parking (Drum Movement's Gridlock Mix)
Both of these tracks have a heavy, thumping beat and a dark feel. Within you'll find what sounds like creaking doors and demonic voices, mixed in with minimal tech-house elements. Drum Movement: Myspace, Beatport.

Since this post contains tracks we've received by mail, I'll throw in some other notably good submissions.

Haydz - Clouds (Original Mix)
Don't know much about this guy but he sent this over to us a couple days ago, and needless to say I was somewhat impressed so I thought I'd pass it along.

Dirty South - Let It Go (Dino Roc's Electro Love Remix)
I don't like the build much on this one but it drops quite nicely. Dino Roc also added us to his blog list so I thought I would pass this along. Check out his blog here.
