Albums | French Duo, My Dear, present a perfect song for the Summertime
Posted by dshaq on June 14, 2017
Out from retirement comes Dshaq. Today we have a fantastic offering from the French duo, My Dear. Very reminiscent of heavy 80s synthesizer music, A Day With You breaks their previous tracks’ molds and gives us a beautiful Nu-Disco track for the upcoming Summer months. A simple guitar riff leads the way during this one, with a powerful chorus to match. My Dear only has a couple tracks listed on their Soundcloud, but I would highly recommend checking out their other stuff – especially “Standing in This Dream”. Enjoy!

The biggest race in the States now has one of the biggest lineups to match it. The Snake Pit, which takes place on the infield of the historic racing site, is becoming one of the main attractions for the race. With names like Skrillex and Zeds Dead for this year, and others such as A-Trak, Steve Aoki, and Kaskade playing in years past, its easy to understand why it’s becoming so popular. May 29th cannot come soon enough: Memorial Day, racing, and loud music, it doesn’t get any better than this. Follow the link here and below to purchase tickets now!
Hip-Hop | West Coast rapper Larry June provides us with a wavy new track
Posted by dshaq on February 16, 2016
Larry June has been able to gain some good traction within the rapping community, as seen through his previous projects with noted producers like TM88 and Sledgren to name a few. It’s becoming more of when everybody will start listening rather than if people will. This time he joins up with Chicago based producer KiNG KiLo to create a very wavy but hard hitting track. Thinking music, smoking music, riding music; it fits all types of moods. Turn up the volume, especially for that base line, and enjoy.

Abstract Hip-Hop | Take a trip to “Israel” with Chance the Rapper and NoName Gypsy
Posted by dshaq on August 12, 2015
Simplicity at its finest. The throwback melody, the talking instead of rapping, and back and forth all make for one of his best releases this year. Word is that Chano has his solo project in the works, sans Social Experiment. Give this one a couple listens and reflect, this is real thinking music. Enjoy.
Chill | Kygo releases his new single right before his Lollapalooza set
Posted by dshaq on July 31, 2015
In lieu of his Sunday headlining performance, Kygo decided to release a brand spankin’ new single just in time for the weekend. Offering a little slower tempo than we are used to hearing from the Norwegian, the song still embodies every other release that we have come to love from the tropical producer. At this point, it’s becoming near impossible for Kygo to release anything but good music. Enjoy!
