Ladies and Gentlemen, we're floating in space...

How long does it take to get to space? About 1500 frames. Here is a stop-animation-slide-show of photos from Calgary, AB with Virtual Boy (L.A) + B-Traits (B.C) + mylesAWAY (B.C) + FLUXO (AB). An epic night, captured in an epic way. (click the link and watch it on the actual site....it looks way better)

the Auer 17 mix




The Auer 17 mix (Auer; pronounced like - hour). myles AWAY's longest, most diverse Dubstep mix to date was originally made as a gift for the beautiful figure in the photo to the left, but is now available to all of you. It has almost every type of dub: straight up dubstep, thug-step, rave-step, club-step, chill reggae-dubstep, psy-dub....etc. Its aggressive, its sexy and its feel good. No track list this time....just enjoy the music.

Myles Away ft indust:realize`s Pr0-2-J - LIVE RECORDING WITH LIVE VISUALS FROM GLITCH.FM

On Sunday night, myles AWAY performed a "pirate-performance" (non-scheduled set) on Glitch.FM and gained the record for most listeners the station has had since its creation. During the performance indust:realize (aka John Palmer) recorded the set and performed live visuals to the music. Though the two artists were over 40km apart, they created something together. Here is the video for your viewing pleasure.....

myles AWAY's NIN remix @ Shambhala!

Friday evening at Shambhala saw the opening of the Village. Glitchy and Scratchy of the IGU kicked off the opening of the stage with a insane performance of Dubstep and Glitch Hop. The dance floor was packed and the crowd was ready to throw down. One of the tracks dropped early in the set was myles AWAY's remix of "The Wretched" by Nine Inch Nails. 

Also there is an article on Glitch.FM about the IGU and this remix @ Shambhala....check it out

Get Your Gun (mylesAWAYoriginal)


This is the first track of mine that is not a remix in a long time. I get into the habit of remixes, because its so awesome to start with an element and expand on it. But this time I wanted to make an original production, not based off another song. BUT! The title is based off another song. The title is an homage to Marilyn Manson's "Get Your Gunn" (spelled with two "N's" because it was actually about a man, not a gun). This track is aggressive and sexy, so put it on the speakers or slide on some headphones and enjoy!

myles AWAY vs NIN (DUBSTEP_remix)


Almost 10 years ago I bought the album 'the Fragile' by Nine Inch Nails. When track 4 came around my jaw dropped. There was the most amazing distortion in the breakdown, I was officially a NIN fan. The album recently made its way back into the rotation and I realized this amazing track was begging to be made into Dubstep. Here it is for your previewing pleasure...

"Wanna Be Loved" Buju Banton (NOG&mylesAWAY) DUBSTEP REMIX



Here it is! Hot off the press! NOG and mylesAWAY's  DUBSTEP remix of Buju Banton's "Wanna be Loved". It will be played for the first time live tonight (April 25, 2009) at the final BENZOUSE party! Those who were lucky enough to party there will be sad to see it go. It was a special moment in time that will be hard to repeat. So here is the track (for preview) for all of those who can't make it out tonight.

***The final BENZOUSE party was shut down by the cops so I did not get to play this track. I was about hour or so into my set when they showed up. So, May 15th, 2009 @ the Dollhouse will be its new live premiere. Be there! Its going to be sick!

::myles, lucy and alice under tokyo thunder::



At heart, this is a remix/re-edit of the Vex'd track "Thunder". But there are elements of Bassnectar's "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" remix, Pogo's "Alice" remix and Glitchy and Scratchy's (feat. mylesAWAY) "Tokyo Tonight".

This is a mangled mash-up to bring any DUBSTEP set to a peak of weirdness!!

myles AWAY Bassline at 129 Mix


Alright, so as the setlist shows its not all "Bassline". But, who cares. Its pounding beats starting at 129 beats per minute and ending at 129 beats per minute. My sets are always tempo changers; I usually like to evolve the set from one genre to the next. Most start at breaks and end with Dubstep. But this is my first set that starts at a BPM and stays there the whole time (I'm always into trying new things). The only track to break up the straight pounding kick beat is Chase and Status': Running. This song fools you by starting as a super-cheesy electro song, but before you know it, it drops into a heavy dubstep beat. Slow dubstep, but dubstep never-the-less (and even slower because it's dropped to 129bpm). Enjoy!

Top 40 vs Underground Mash-ups



Myles Away :: " In the past I never gave any credit to Top 40. I will be the first to admit it is 99% garbage. But every once in a while something good leaks through and it is worth giving a second listen. I like to dance between the mainstream and the underground. The mainstream is taboo to some, but when presented in the right way it can be a lot of fun. I like to breath new life into Top 40 tracks with either the song preceding it. or following it....or underneath it! The Mash-up! My sets are littered with live-mashups, but these are a few mash-ups that I recorded for others to enjoy on there own."
