Think Canada, lasers, fluorescent colors, synth funk, science fiction, explosions and you’ve roughly got an idea of what to expect. The third installment of our mixtape series comes from Montréal’s Hovatron. As one of the co-initiators of the Turbo Crunk nights, Hovatron brings crunked up acid infected beats dripped in skweeeing synths with an hint of techno and pop music. Doesn’t make much sense? Well… it doesn’t! His sound is that unique! The mix consists of solely his own tunes and remixes. Lots of new stuff in here which have never been heard outside of the club. Interview and Tracklist can be found after the jump.

TRACKLIST, after
Our man Hovatron just dropped his Lo-fi Funk release. We already reported you the first with HYBAKUSHA and the second with Rekordah just the other day! Hovatron was at lowriders early last year and he was back with Lunice at Raw Rhythm. If you were there you might remember the energetic show the both of them pulled off!
Hovatron makes a wild one with Let’s get wet. Your slammed all over the dancefloor with this amazing track, imagine skweed crunk, that builts up to a heavy climax and then brings it subtle back! You’ll hear heavy tweaks dirty voices, claps twirling basslines.
With Gold Star Radiation you have to be prepared for the massive synth pulsing bass (like you know from early electro) covered with nice claps, as simple as effective! It takes you on the dancefloor and makes you do things you wasn’t supposed to do in public (popping Travoltas, please….!!!) Another skweee wonder!

Tracklist after you read some more.
styles mutate so we call this Baile Crunk
A while ago Numbers did a mix for the Mary Anne Hobbs show to showcase their new label. It spans for 30 minutes and features a lot of new unreleased material and classics from Dress 2 Sweat/Stuff/Wireblock. This mix is absolutely stunning! If you take a look at the tracklist you’ll know what I mean. There’s hip hop, crunk, funky, dubstep and stuff I don’t have clue of what to call. Mixed by Spencer.
