Mixpak Records dropped a new EP today, Hot Plate from 22-year-old Texan Cory Blaine. Blaine seems to be combining a jackin’ Chicago house sound with some of Baltimore club’s goofy spirit, and his Hot Plate EP finds him also getting remixed by the likes of DJ Nehpets, Zombie Disco Squad, Malente&Dex, and Andy Petr. You’ll have to buy the EP to hear all those efforts, but in the meantime, Blaine has cooked up this bootleg re-edit of current Dirtybird club anthem “Mr. Spock” by Justin Martin and Ardalan. The original version is a tech-house monster, and while Blaine’s remix may not surpass it, it does dial back some of the big-room vibe, whittling down the drama and stepping up the jack. At the very least, it’s a new spin on a track that’s being caned everywhere right now.
