Aluna Francis and George Reid struck a chord when they released their heavily anticipated original production, “Attracting Flies,” under their moniker Aluna George. Lurking in the background of all the instantaneous hype for this new track was a remix from the Harlem Shake sensation, Bauuer. Looking to shed the stigma behind his internet craze, Baauer steps up to the plate with a huge edit to the English electronic groups new single.

My biggest worry when I saw Baauer‘s name on the remix bill was that the vocals were going to get drowned out with his signature trap sound. He dispels my preconceived notions, though, with a more sophisticated bass sound that still maintains the Bauuer bounce we all know and love. Also set to take on “Attracting Flies” with their own renditions are Jamie Jones and S-Type. You can purchase this Bauuer remix at midnight tonight on Beatport, but Aluna George‘s debut album isn’t expected to hit stores until July 1st.

As a duo of ex-DMC champions out of Toronto, Thugli brings a fresh perspective on the Trap movement. With support from top-tier talent including Diplo, A-Trak, RL Grime, Just Blaze, and Baauer, they surely hold more than enough merit to be worthy of your attention. Thugli has given us the green light on premiering their brand new “Inflight” mix that largely consists of their own edits as well as a number of beat-driven, bass-heavy gems. Be on the lookout for their highly-anticipated debut EP due out late this Spring, and catch them at the Smog vs. Basshead WMC event in Miami on March 21st with Adventure Club, 12th Planet, UZ, and many more.

Our GDD familiar and LA local Valentino Khan has a serious treat for you this week. WOW.

“Week three of my Trap Thursdays series! I took Sidney Samson’s classic tune “The World Is Yours” and originally had made this remix as a VIP for my DJ buddies, but I kept getting asked about a release once it got in a few mixes. So by popular demand here it is for all of you! -VK”

The wild personality of “acid punk rapper” Mykki Blanco is getting a run of the trap. Our LA familiar Neo Fresco (Mad Decent/Get Shifty) has caught a hook in MB’s raw vocals on Hazeboogie and created a hypnotizing bootleg with stabs and rolls all the way to the hood. FUN FACT: The original was produced by Sinden for MB’s Cosmic Angel Mixtape!

Bass producer and generally chill bro, Butch Clancy, just ratcheted things up a notch.  His weekly track giveaway known as #TrapTuesdays culminates today with the final track on the free-to-download LP.  I give Butch a bold move on this one– I am a huge fan of giving away entire albums for free– and offer my suggestion that one eye be kept on ‘ol Butch in the next few months.

Here’s the first track on the album:
