House | KarbonCopy Remixes
Posted by W8 on February 5, 2012
KarbonCopy is made up of both Kindred and Corin coming out of Australia, now with two new sweet remixes upon their resume. Quality over quantity always makes for the best production, and thus far KarbonCopy is showing all the right ingredients of stars in the making. If they continue to live up to their standard it can only spell out a well-established, promising career ahead. Shout out to NLN on the find.

Posted by W8 on January 31, 2012
Fresh off Above & Beyond’s stellar performance last night, it’s needless to say – I’m still awake. I left the club diagnosed with an evermore addiction to bass thumping, fist pumping, bodies bumping syndrome. So, having been inspired by ruptured ringing ear drums, I dedicate this post to the appreciation of records like these heard in live, real energetic environments.

Alternative, Hip-Hop, Indie | WZRD (KiD CuDi & Dot Da Genius) ft. Desire – Teleport 2 Me, Jamie
Posted by W8 on January 31, 2012
Its been a pleasure watching musical genres of all kinds go from an abstract state into one colorful art form. There’s no greater evidence of this than Kid Cudi, known for dabbling in a variety of sounds and tempos, never could he simply be just a rapper. Teleport 2 Me, Jamie leans towards being an alternative indie record, and far from ever being acknowledged solely as hip hop. Actually, this track happens to sample from one of my favorite indie records, Under Your Spell by Desire. That’s a great thing, right when the game seems to have lost its oxygen, Kid Cudi’s musical diversity enters with a breath of fresh air.
Get it on iTunes.

Arty first premiered this ID above at Pier 94 a few weeks ago, and sounds extraordinary, a truly monumental record still waiting on a release date. So below, to start your weekend off right I scoured the net for the best and amounted to nothing less than a buffet of progressive gems. All of these heaters are placed in no particular order and each deserves adequate attention. I’m sure a few are destined for immediate download.
Names is an exciting record that builds into a lively drop, get it on iTunes.

Tobi D’Eramo sounds like he’s ramping up to become something special in EDM. I predict he’s on the verge of monstrous records in the near future, let this be a reminder of his talented ear and what’s next to come.
DOWNLOAD: Tobi D’Eramo – Alive (Jar of hearts vocal)
At first I considered this track a bit mild with a mediocre synth, and later felt the underlying piano gave it that extra dimension needed so, considered it worth my ears.

Alex Engström elaborates on the soulful side of progressive with his take on Revita, rarely do you get a chilling effect from progressive records. Alex Engström manages to capitalize on that, making it my favorite track of the bunch, get it!

Albums, Hip-Hop | Terence Ryan – Skeleton EP
Posted by W8 on January 26, 2012
Skeleton EP is definitely the exact prescribed dosage of reality that hip hop is currently in need of, no doubt. Terence Ryan is solely responsible for all songs written, recorded, produced, and engineered on this EP. It’s safe to say he deserves full credit for this entire project, that I truly admire. Rarely do you see artists engaging in all aspects of their craft aside from a scarce few like J. Cole and Kanye. For that reason Skeleton should remain memorably fresh for quite a while, not to mention Terence Ryan’s worth pondering lyricism. Be sure to show support and follow him on Twitter, and like his Facebook. Also, check his new video for Alan’s Right if you haven’t already.
