Insomnia strikes again… in the form of some Starcraft II with Jason, a new templated music feature for this blog, a ton of bug fixes and visual tweaks that I’ve been meaning to do, and I also reworked the About page. Basically instead of posting music inline at the bottom of other blog posts, they’re going to be their own posts… quite similar to tumblr, except sexier. Download the song by clicking on the album artwork.

This way, I’ll be able to post new music often without having to have a storied blog post to accompany it. I enjoy spending an unreasonable amounts of time on things like this that seem somewhat inconsequential. I think it’s because the obsessive fine-tweaking of how colors and layout work eventually will allow me to make the correct guess the first time.

So while we were in Barcelona, my friend Kane had and idea to put together mixes for this blog. Each would be known as a SPECTRACIDE mix– a fresh exercise for him to sharpen his DJ skills and to bring sick music to your next party or marathon run. I agreed that the idea was awesome and told him I’d handle the cover art duties as well as I could.

Well here we are, a few months later and have his first mix of the best electro and progressive house out right now. Preview at your leisure and below or via the artwork. If you dig the mix, comment here or on soundcloud to give him some props. Tracklist is after the break, enjoy!
