I’ve got a whole slew of fresh tunes for you this week. In my search for a comprehensive and diverse Wobble Wednesday, I noticed that we lacked a chill side. That’s why I hope you enjoy the new category: Future Beats. Don’t worry, your weekly dose of filth and freshness hasn’t been compromised. I just want to appeal to everybody’s tastes and interests. Be sure to check out the "White Noise" feat. AlunaGeorge track from Disclosure, it’s my favorite of the week.
I would also like to extend a welcoming hand to any artists/painters/sketchers/etc who would like to have their work featured in the weekly Wobble. You can contact me at the email provided at the bottom of my posts, or on Twitter, @BeerCanDid. Have a great week and don’t let the Harlem Shake rustle your jimmies too badly.
FUTURE BEATS
To start off the Future Beats groove, I wanted to give you a real heady tune. Reminds me of Bonobo– and Emancipator-type stuff. This Monokle track is fire. Enjoy it, because there's certainly more where that came from!
This DJ Joe Block track has a weird chill-trap feel to it. Very nice and calming.

This is some French House tuneage for you to get jiggy with. Has a nice summer sound while maintaining a level of dark mystery (probably a result of the chord progressions).

I absolutely love this track. It has a really nice minimal techno sound paired with house vocals. Great for a bar or lounge set. One of those tracks played as background music but which catches your attention instantly.

UK BASS
This is ripped from the Royal-T Rinse FM mix, so you can get a taste of a proper mix and spin-back. I really enjoyed this tune. Reminds me of Bowser’s Castle.

Xavier Rudd – Lioness Eye [VIDEO, 7:38]
One-man dubstep band with two didgeridoos. What more can I say?

FILTH
Starting off this week’s Filth with some party bass. Heavy buildup with an even crazier drop.

Beautiful vocals, house-y buildup, heavy drop, complex body. Like a beautiful girl or a properly-aged scotch. Actually, it’s nothing like a girl or a scotch, but don’t worry, it makes sense if you don’t think about it too hard.

Another heavy remix for your faces.

Your weekly Skrillex/Datsik/American Filth track.

DRUM ‘N’ BASS
This one starts off heavily rhythmic and gritty. Drops into an almost Calyx and Teebee body with more layering than a seven-layer cake (as that would only be seven layers).

Classic DnB sound. Really hits the spot, as GLR artists always does.

Good follow-up to the previous LTJ rework. More vocals though. These two tracks would go well together.

TRAP/JUKE
I’ve been fiending for a solid "Hustlin" remix. Gotta count on Luke Da Duke to deliver such a diverse edit. This track evolves three times, each stage crazier than the last.
[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/78708296" params="" width=" 100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]
Heavy on the dirty-dirty groove. This is a great festival track, as the bass pretty much destroys everything in its subby path.
[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/78559508" params="" width=" 100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]
Another great festival track from the good graces of D!RTY AUD!O and Tarantula Man. Blast this one.
[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/77346326" params="" width=" 100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]
Here’s some Juke/Footwork/Philly Club. Whatever you want to call it, it’s new and it’s awesome. I’ll try to throw a track or two in each week from now on.

BONUS! My favorite "Harlem Shake" video so far:

MIX OF THE WEEK
We've got a big mix this week. Some old school house vinyl mixed with low end wubs, courtesy of the main man, Dan, in Allston (@Dan_inallston). Goes very well with the "Future Beats" feel I'm aiming for this week.
"Whole lotta house & techno & garage to wobble to. Mostly vinyl with a few digital freebies and forthcoming dubs. Recorded straight from the mixer, one take, no post-processing; so let's just say there's a decent amount of the 'human element' with some of these blends. Oh well. My b. I apologize, I guess." – Dan, in Allston
