I will readily admit that Algeronics makes me feel bad about myself.  But why write about someone so ego-deflating, you may ask? Like John Cougar Mellencamp once said, “it hurts so good!”  Algeronics is an 18 year-old Cali-based producer crafting electro-fidget bombs on the regular.  What were you doing with your life when you were 18?  At an age where most of us were specializing in killing brain cells and making bad decisions, Algeronics is producing beats with the skill of a studio veteran.  Remixing Daft Punk is a daunting task.  Anytime you touch a truly legendary piece of music, it usually comes out the other end that much worse.  Algeronics’ remix of Daft Punk’s “Digital Love” is a rare exception. At a time when I was almost completely ready to give up on  fidget as a genre, Algeronics came correct with this gem. While most fidget tracks tend to rely on wobble alone, this youngster’s remix forgoes that tired formula with tastefully chopped up samples of the original and wobble-free yet bangin’ interludes between the epic breakdowns.  Algeronics doesn’t need to rely on remixes of already dope originals either. His “You and Me EP” (Direct Drive Digital) displays the same talent and creativity.  Enough producer-jockin’, now on to the HEAT…
