Mason Proper

Mason Proper are a quintet from Alpena, Michigan. The band is singer Jonathan Visger, keyboardist Matt Thompson, bassist Zac Fineberg, guitarist Brian Konicek and drummer Garrett Jones.

I discovered them last year when I heard Wallpaper's remix of "Safe for the Time Being". Wallpaper are a production team from Oakland California.

I revisited the original this morning and realized the intro sounds similar to the beginning from Aloud's remix of Modjo's "What I Mean", one of my favorites.

Dancing in the Dark

I'm re-posting a more refined version of this mix from a few months back. Proxy's Dancing in the Dark deserves its place in the sun.

Agnostic Techno Mix

In the spirit of the holiday season, Haizeeland presents a selection of completely secular, hedonistic, pleasure-seeking music for your listening enjoyment. I'm very excited to bring back Underworld's 'Born Slippy' from the dust bins. Also, the Moscow-based Proxy is causing quite a commotion these days. I've been on constant repeat with 'Dancing in the Dark'; a sublime track with an elegantly melodic vocal placed over a hardcore dub-step beat. I cut out the dub-step part in my mix, so check out the original here >
