Weekly Electronic Smash: Fool's Gold Records [DWNLD]

It's back! The weekly electronic smash is back and we're hitting you with updates from each of the major techno labels out there. Today, we start off with Fool's Gold Records and their latest updates!

A-Trak recently bid farewell to the boys at Fat Beats with his own set at one of their last stores. It's a sad, sad day to see Fat Beats leave us so I'm dropping you with some highlights of A-Trak's set over at their store.


Also, new on Fool's Gold, Green Money has just dropped a new mix tape that can be downloaded below. It's got a bunch of new remixes from them and if you're around, catch them live!

The new Foolcast has also been released by Style of Eye that has also released his newest single, Homeless. The Foolcast starts off with this summer's classic, Barbara Streisand, by Duck Sauce and then takes you away on some ill techno! Check it out! All Foolcasts are free on iTunes, so you have no excuses!

The Weekly Electronic Smash!

What up people!

This month of July is bringing about changes for RVS and the way we will be blogging. First, you can find us on Facebook as a fan page @ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Rhythmic-Variations-Of-Sound/134295623268705. Also new, we have changed our e-mail to rhythmicvariationsofsound@gmail.com so don't forget to drop us any beats you'd want to see us put up! I believe that a Twitter account is also on its way to creation so don't forget to check us out there too! We're still on SoundCloud, you know where to find us on there. We are also thinking of uploading weekly videos from time to time to recap the week in music beginning in September! Finally, on my part, I will be serving you a weekly dosage of techno every Saturday so stay tuned to check that out!

Starting with this Saturday, I'm hitting you with a couple of albums that are fresh on the market! Below you'll find a mini summary of the artist and their album along with one of their songs and possibly a download link!

Rusko has hit us with yet another remix but this time it's a 4th of July remix that was originally done by Kelis. We know Kelis' voice from the song Acapella but Rusko transforms her style to a blend of both dubstep and techno. In any case, it is a must for the next 4th of July so download it or buy it on iTunes. Do it for your country.

I am sorry for not being able to find a better quality video!

A couple of weeks ago I blogged about Mustard Pimp and how they were dubbed the next big French duo. A couple years ago, I was obsessed with an artist by the name of Brodinski. He too, was dubbed the next big thing out of France. Today, we have yet another. French Fries could not have picked a better name either. Mumdance has named them the next big French duo since the likes of Daft Punk and I want to know what you think of their mix! It's available to download on the link below.

I've got to say, when Duck Sauce came out, I was blown away. The fusion of funk and techno by two greats such as van Helden and A-Trak was always going to be a hit. Well, guess what? They just filmed it while performed live. And, on top of that, the video includes Trizzy live with Travis. Trizzy, you never fail to impress.

Sticking to videos, the highly anticipated video for Kingdom's 'Mind Reader' is out! Definitely a must see so check it out below!

Finally, the much awaited for EP is out on Fool's Gold! It's none other than Green Money's Gold Rush EP! It sailed to the top download on Juno and is now available on BeatPort and iTunes! As a bonus, check out the new Jokers of The Scene Mix on SoundCloud which is available for download!

Until next week, peace!
