Nervous Nitelife: Tom Stephan - A Top Story This Week

.
Nervous Nitelife: Tom Stephan was a top story for this week. Here it is again: After highly successful releases from Frankie Knuckles, Danny Krivit and Mind Control, Nervous Records is now ready to unleash the newest mix CD from one of the most popular DJ/producers of the last decade, Tom Stephan. Some know this dance floor superhero only by his alias Superchumbo, but really, that's only one side of this multi talented New York born / London based artist. Nervous Nitelife: Tom Stephan offers a window into his current DJ set but also a look into Stephan's production and remix cache. It's pretty damn impressive and this release features all sorts of crazy remixes and tracks from names like Diplo, Major Lazer and Larry Tee. Combine this with Stephan's own original productions and new single "Light's Out ft. Rowetta" and you've got one hell of a mix CD that's completely unique.
Nervous Nitelife: Tom Stephan picks up right in the middle of an extremely productive time for Stephan. His latest originals "Turn That Shit Up" (for Southern Fried) and "Lights Out ft. Rowetta" (with Pete Gleadall for Nervous) both appear on Nervous Nitelife: Tom Stephan and reflect his newest inspirations: the electro sound of the UK and the new Dutch sound. This inspiration comes to the forefront of the compilation with the rave-y electro stabs-meets-twisted house of Nervous Disco Dolly's "Get Up Everybody (Starkillers Mix)" and the minimal squelches of Seductive "Underground Sound." North and South unite when Miami's great Robbie Rivera and NYC's big room electro machine Rooster & Peralta throw down on "Move Move (DJ Observer & Daniel Heathcliff Mix)" This frantic wave is then met with a trough as the punishing beats of Benny Royal "Back to Basic," Afrojack "Polkadots," Christian Arango "Body Shake" and SpiritMindster "Furious Night (DJ Dextro Mix)" take over the center point of the mix.
The final third of the mix is full of great surprises and the action picks up big time with Tom Stephan's own dizzying remix of Major Lazer "Keep It Going Louder (Tom Stephan Harder Mix)." This one sounds like a ride on the Gravitron. Williamsburg favorite Larry Tee keeps it going with the assistance of Roxy Cottontail on Afrojack's drum-atic remix of "Let's Make Nasty" while Mikix The Cat Mix takes it all back to the days of acid house with his whistle blowing remix of Rico Tubbs "Born to Bounce." The boobs start bouncing thanks to bonus beats courtesy of Diplo on his remixes of Bingo Players "Get Up" and Tom Stephan's "Turn That Shit Up" before Oscar G closes it out vocal house style with Tom Stephan's reworking of his "What You Need feat Tamara Wallace." - more on this story
