Over the weekend I was lucky enough to be in New York City at the same time as the annual, Mad Decent Block Party. The line-up was filled with big names like Claude VonStroke and The Hood Internet. Obviously VonStroke was amazing, but I was really impressed by some of the smaller acts. I wasn't really familiar with Zeds Dead, a Toronto-based duo that threw both the bros and b&t people into a frenzy with the dirtiest dub. They have very few official releases out there, but you'll find some of their best tracks below. Another act that impressed me was Gang Gang Dance, an experimental, synth-laden outfit based out of New York. The group actually got their start in our hometown, Washington D.C., over ten years ago. They released a new album, Eye Contact this year. I'll let the music do the rest.
