Some friends and I have started a new blog called PRIVATEER. It's going to cover/promote all kinds of dance music from dubstep to techno, d'n'b to house (but no trance, because fuck that shit- right?). There's also going to be a series of monthly mixes and we're planning on doing a monthly "sound-cloud roundup" (basically exhibiting unsigned artists we like) so if you're making some forward thinking beats and you're looking for exposure post a track below!
Anyway our first post is an Interview that did with Simian Mobile Disco where we talk drugs, dubstep and delicacies (literally passed them my phone when they were djing asking if I could interview them for my blog and they said yeah- top blokes!) so check it out! Don't forget to like it/leave a comment on the blog if you enjoyed the interview.
You may like my album, it seems it would make a great addition on your blog [being unsigned and whatnot]. http://voodeedoo.bandcamp.com/

hey there, I'm an unsigned producer who's very new to the scene... I've been producing for maybe four months and have release one (awful) song. BUT, the song I am working on now is turning out to be quite a formidable track if I must say so myself... It's at least much closer to a semi-professional sounding track than anything else I have done. Here's the 3 minute Promo (which is Unmastered and not quite mixed, so take it with a grain of salt). While this is only a promo I will be releasing the full version of the song in less than two weeks, so you can always just wait until the song drops and then decide if you'd like to feature me or not. Here ya go:
I make a lot of deeper darker sounding stuff, Techno and Garage influences, occasionally the experimental IDM or rhythm based tunes ^^ Soundcloud Soundcloud

Although everything above will still be up for consideration, future submissions should go here: http://soundcloud.com/groups/privateer-submissions . We've had so many posts it's getting a bit hard to keep track of it all, especially since the blog is run by a few of us and the posts are coming through to the account for my solo stuff. If you do send up a track don't for get to leave a comment below with any details (can we a 320 to distribute on the blog, where can we hear your music etc. etc.) and also to bump the topic. Cheers.

Hello
I have dropped you two tracks
Lemon Haze: a journey into the lower tempos, this one is at 110bpm, was a chance to experiment with layering and patterns. The track builds up subtly until the bass kicks in.
Loefah - Horror show (snypa's house in the dark remix): wanted to brave an old classic and bring it bang up to date with a different style. Tried to recreate the track within a swamp vibe and, from what I'm hearing, people are responding well to it.
I'd prefer for neither of them to go 320 although you are welcome to play em out or whatever, just after a bit of exposure and feedback really so I can fine tune both tracks and, hopefully, get em released somewhere.
Big ups for doing this, really good idea.
