I've always been a huge fan of the French electronic duo Daft Punk, and over the years they've proved to be one of my go to bands to listen to just because they provide so much diversity. Some of their songs are good to chill to, some are good to rage to, and others can be considered in the middle of the spectrum. Daft Punk has been releasing hits ever since bursting on the French house scene in the 90's, so if you like these jams do some homework and find the rest of their stuff. STAY JUICY... -Foles Digital Love - Daft Punk by gräddan Get the Juice HERE
The XX is a favorite of Jeezy's at JuiceBoxJams. They have a completely unique feel which is incredibly refreshing in today's music scene, where hundreds of songs are created daily and an artist can't taste a minute of the limelight before someone else is copying his/her sound with a new angle for the kids hungry ears. The XX, a three part band stands out from the crowd. For all of you who've had enough of the same old no pulp Tropicana OJ in a carton, here's some freshly picked and squeezed orange juice straight into a tall cold glass for ya!
Borgore is an Israeli dubstep producer and drummer for the heavy metal band Shabira..............wait what?? This is one of the reasons i love dubstep so much. You would never expect a man from this background to have a sound like this..Crazy combinations of musical genres can be fused together into a melting pot of JUICY goodness. Enjoy this Borgore Jam..
So I may have caught this off another, slightly less popular blog called ThisSongisSick.com ..... The fact of the matter is that this song does deserve to be blogged about quite a bit. Skrillex. A name that is changing the Dubstep game like Black Sabbath changed the Rock n' Roll game, and I mean that quite literally. If you haven't noticed it yet its time you wake up and realize that Dubstep is growing and evolving rapidly and while its early to say that this is going to hit as big as rock n' roll did in the 60's, its undoubtedly created a strong undercurrent of devoted music fans across the world. SKRILLEX has been one of the new names pushing the limits of hard Dubstep (and music in general) can be. This is an intense song coming from an ex-emo kid that will shred your speakers. TGIF song 1/18/11 : skrillex with Cinema (Benny Benassi ft. Gary Go remix).
TGIF. I hope you are all as excited for the weekend as I am and if not we have the medicine for you. Here it is, the song my neighbors will not stop listening to. Turn up your speakers to the appropriate full volume and let this beat fill the room as you begin your night. I love this song because it is squeeky clean and the sounds are so precise, as is expected from music giant Morgan Page. This remix still remains true to the original Sweet Disposition and helps draw out the power of the vocals and rythme. Now from all of JuiceBoxJams we wish you a happy Friday.
This is one of my favorite mixtapes of all time. As I've mentioned countless times before I'm a big Wiz Khalifa fan. wiz wiz wiz. Download this mixtape HERE (red "click here to download" link in center of page) and give him a shot.
P.S. If you don't have a membership at www.datpiff.com you should create one. It's free, and they have tons of mixtapes. You are allowed to listen to individual songs before downloading, and they give you 5 free downloads per day. Great site

Yup. Here he is with that sweet sweet juice. Ian Brown. Electronic music with natural elements; beautifully composed specifically for your ear hole. I first heard him on a ski video and immediately searched the lyrics to come across "Set My Baby Free." Consequently got his entire album and I love his style.
I just came across this dude Eliot Lipp while browsing da interwebs... Haven't listened to too much of his stuff but what I've heard sounds good. He kinda combines sounds similar to Pretty Lights and Ratatat to make beats, some more electronic than others, ultimately producing some reaaaal chill beats to kick it to. Enjoy.

MUST LISTEN..Here's the original dubstep version of "Kickstarts," that nasty techno banger by Afrojack that was posted a few days ago. This song is getting pretty popular nowadays... Example - Kickstarts BAR9 Remix by BAR9 Get the Juice HERE
Here's a song that's a lot different from Skrillex's usual style. Softer and lighter sounds are used such as the synths that start around 2:26 and there is no heavy dub drop. Don't get me wrong, I love Skrillex's original heavy dubstep but this type of music will make him more popular amongst other demographics.

This is the new track that Rusko released live at midnight on New Years Eve. High quality versions are still tough to find but this song is sure to blow up soon. Rusko is visibly evolving as a musician, moving away from typical dubstep womps and making more complex and sophisticated songs. Find some good speakers and bump this......

The illest rap artist you've never heard. Grip Grands beats are some of my favorite to cruise to and his flow is pretty tight. In a world dominated by arrogance (rap about rim size, money, gettin laid and how good the rap itself is), Grip Grand is a unique player who utterly detests that style and it shows in his lines. While you can't help but love lil weezy with, "i had a cat scan and i had money on my mind" there's gotta also be room to recognize the soul juice pumping through Grip Grand's veins with lines like "my lyrics are the only gold that i got in my mouth."
Wow. GOOD music definitely shows off its talent in this video. Really not a big Kanye fan since College Dropout but even his last verse was crazy. Big Sean was made for this type of freestyle rap. And who knew Pusha T from Clipse could actually spit?.....

If you don't know the XX yet your gonna have to check them out. A fairly minimalist band with a refreshingly new style and strong vocals, everyone seems to like them. I could write an essay about their unique style and how important this band is but really a song is worth a million words here so I'll let you listen for yourself.
Boys Noize is a German DJ that packs his beats with lots of different sounds and energy. I'm curious to see what other people think of Boys Noize because I am a huge fan but he is definitely unique. Most of his songs develop more than it may seem after 30 seconds or so, so give this jam a shot.

Robotic Pirate Monkey is an up and coming electronic band that does remixes of a wide variety of songs. They are trying to get as much material out in public as possible, so some of their songs are kinda forced and are lacking some juice. As usual, JuiceBoxJams has picked out the best of the best from Robotic Pirate Monkey
This is just my kind of dude through and through. He speaks the truth and keeps it real. That is what RAP has been missing for the past few years. Not hip hop that climbs its way to popularity with catchy beats and at a glance decent lyrics. This is one of the realest rappers i've heard come out of the musical shadows of our generation

I have no clue why i haven't gotten on the Curren$y train yet. As I've mentioned before I'm a huge Khalifa fan and Curren$y is in the same league and circle...most likely a doobie circle cuz these guys are both nug heads. That can grow a little old and I feel like i may have passed on Curren$y because I was already playing out the whole pot dominated genre by bumpin wiz. Anyway I gave Curren$y a shot and these are the juciest beats i could find. (keep in mind this is only his latest shit. nothin old)

Pretty Lights is able to incorporate samples and live drums into an extremely juicy electronic potpourri. I saw them live in Albany a few months back and it was an incredible experience. First of all, the audience was comprised of some of the coolest and most ridiculous characters I have ever seen at a concert. The performance was also incredible and he played a really long encore with a few surprises (including Chali 2na from Jurrasic 5 rapping over one of his tracks). I highly suggest exploring this band and getting the chance to see them live at some point in your life.
Former post-hardcore/emo frontman Sonny Moore aka Skrillex is a singer turned dubstep producer. His unique style is filled with "in your face" bass lines and drops, and his songs emphasize dubstep's gritty, dirty, filthy, high energy aspects. A lot of Skrillex's songs will be loved by those with a desire for filthness (like me), but he has a few that are more pop sounding such as his various club remixes of Lady GaGa songs. Skrillex was one of the first dubstep producers I truly became a fan of, and he is sure to be a legend for spreading the WUB WUB WUB to various demographics.
Afrojack is a dutch DJ that makes straight party music. He is changing the techno game with every banger he releases. If you like to pahhhty and get sweaty check him out.

I've been bumpin Chiddy Bang for a while now and I still love their new age sound just as much as when i first heard them. The first thing to catch my eye was their beats.....nasty..enough said. This is a group to definitely keep you're eyes peeled for cuz they're about to do big things.
A long time ago my parents took me to some photographer guy to take me and my brother's picture...pretty excruciating experience but at least I came out of it with something good. I got to talking to the guy working for the photographer about music and he brought up RJD2. RJD2 is a dj that makes some chiiiiilll shiiiit. Listen for yourself.

It truly breaks my heart that when the name Outkast comes up in conversation, people in our generation think of "Hey Ya" and Andre 3000 dancing around doing jazz hands with a bunch of Oompa Loompas. Outkast was one of the first rap groups from the south to really define hip hop. Personally, they are arguably my favorite band of all time. Slow, soothing, sit back and blow some O's, beats allow Andre and Big Boi to vary the speed of their verses so they can rip tracks apart. The flows of Big Boi and 3 stacks combined with profound lyrical content make me wonder what music has come to when people don't recognize a duo so good. Soak up these classics and take a deep breath.

I have always been a huge fan of Pittsburgh native Wiz Khalifa, who recently exploded on the popular music scene with his hit "Black and Yellow." Now that Wiz has gotten more and more publicity he is bringing other talented rappers to the limelight. Mac Miller is one of these up and comers on the same label as Khalifa, Rostrum Records. Mac Miller is also from Pittsburgh and even attended the same high school as Khalifa. His mixtape "K.I.D.S." (Kicking Incredibly Dope Shit) shows how much potential this recent high school graduate has.
Chrispy is a young up and coming dubstep producer from Wales, UK. At just 19 years old he has made his mark on youtube and other sites for his smooth remixes of popular songs. Womp away..

Before seeing Deadmau5 for the first time this summer, I didn't really listen to much electronic music at all. After going to a mau5 show in Boston, I was hooked on all things electronic and bass heavy. That being said, when I found out that Deadmau5 had beef with some guy named Rusko because he wouldn't let him smoke a blunt backstage I had to do some research on the alleged culprit. (blunts <3). Rusko introduced DUBSTEP to me and my world has been turned upside down ever since. Rusko's style varies from club bangers to tasteful samples mixed with heavy beats. Hope the WUB WUB WUB gets you hooked like it did me. Enjoy a few of my favorite Rusko jams.
Everyone loves a nice steady beat to thump to. Whether it's jammin out in the car, bumping some steady thumpers in your headphones as you study, or raging with the people you care most about, there are few things better in this sweet, sweet world than waiting for a long anticipated drop that takes you into another world. That being said, enjoy these bangers.

A mellow yet powerful jam that can lift you up at any time. The short synth at 3:00 is just unbelievable. "Who do you Love?"... Museum of Bellas Artes for this song, and JuiceBoxJams for bringing it to you.
Crystal Castles creates one of the most unique sounds I've ever heard of. By mixing the attitude and pace of hardcore punk with steady thumping electro beats, they are a group that not everyone will fall in love with without enough patience. Me and Jeezy saw them live at the House of Blues in Boston this past summer because Rusko was opening up for them. Neither of us had no clue who they were but they put on the most energy packed show I've ever seen. Enjoy and get weeird -Foles My favorite CC jam Crystal Castles - Empathy by Szabom Get the Juice HERE
This is a big day for everyone, because it is the birthday of JuiceBoxJams.com. The first band I'd like to expose is Mr. Madjestyk with "Dub Hangover." You can't help but enjoy the short jock jam samples he throws on top of the super-whomp wobble bass.
