A-Trak hands the decks over to Nick Catchdubs on Fool’s Gold 19
Now in it's 19th iteration, Fool's Gold Radio has been a must listen podcasts every month since its inception. On Number 19, A-Trak hands the decks over to Fool's Gold partner-in-crime Nick Catchdubs who does the Fool's Gold Radio name proud with 21 track burner of jacking bass. Jumping into the mix with Sammy Bananas bootleg of Justin Timberlake's "Let the Groove In," Bart B More's "Jack," and Tracques - "In the Morning," Catchdubs sets a frenetic tone early on, delivering an hour of heavy hitting blend of acid, electro, trap and grime.
Funkin Matt – I Wish (Original Mix)
Essential to festival sets from the likes of A-Trak, Crookers, and Nicky Romero, “I Wish” is a buzzing, eccentric jam that feels right at home on Fool’s Gold Records. As A-Trak asserted in the August edition of Fool’s Gold Radio, “This song is not by R. Kelly.” Instead, we get raspy vocals and carnal desires from a whimsical robot who most likely listened to the song “I Believe I Can Fly” one too many times. The reverberating robo-yearnings not only drew our sympathy, but also an uncontrollable desire to dance. Funkin Matt's funky joie de vivre is now available at 320 kbps. Just ask our favorite R&B urophiliac: “This is the remix to ignition, Hot and fresh out the kitchen.” Admit it, you continued humming the lyrics.
