I haven’t heard this song since I was like 10 years old and it’s really bringing back some memories. Ashur flipped Destiny’s Child’s early 2000’s Grammy nominated single “Say My Name” into a future trap hit that shows off his clear skillset to take songs to the next level. In the past the Florida bred act has dropped a handful of sick remixes, but this one in particular may just be his best work to date thanks to its slow but epic build that finally kicks in on the chorus and goes full sicko mode (shout out Travis Scott x Drake). Stream the new remix above now by Ashur, it’s the perfect song to get you ready for the weekend!
Chill | Kaskade’s Arkade Records Releases Massive Compilation “Destination Tulum”
Posted by VMan on August 12, 2018
Arkade Records has released an 18-track compilation album, a journey labeled “Destination Tulum.” This release marks a shift from the labels normal pattern of single releases seen throughout a year, embarking on a new and deliberate musical journey that has chapters, moods, and vivid soundscapes that appeal. There is certainly a therapeutic element within, but listen for yourself to receive to full scope of what this is about.
With the revival of dance music in the states nearing it’s 10th anniversary, many have come and gone during those years, but one soloist who’s remained constantly relevant and on top, while continuing to evolve as a natural artist, is Kaskade. Like many, Kaskade started small, touring and releasing; fast forward years later, with record deals and festivals under his belt, the Arkade Records seed was planted and the rest is history. The label has hosted acts from Brohug to Fairchild, always remaining tethered as an expansion of Kaskade’s world and vision.

Chill | Showtek, MOTi, and Starley Team Up On Feel-Good Original “Down Easy”
Posted by VMan on August 2, 2018
Showtek continues to showcase a new side of the alias, highlighting a more laid-back, chill vibe versus the big-room sounds his beginnings were built on. Alongside MOTi and Starley, Showtek has created a feel-good dance song with a highly infectious drop. The melody and stand-out sound in this particular area allows the single to breathe, while the cadence of fresh voice on top forms a distinct relevancy storm that easily sweeps listeners off their feet – a unique collision of culture and originality.
One can hope this won’t be the last time these three work together again.

“Moonbird” is a brilliant new record by Altvater. The trippy and trapped out original single sounds like something that could have been made in outerspaced. Laced with hazey piano and synth chords on top of a simple yet fully potent drum section, this song continues to build up and change as frequently as a chameleon.
