Former DMC Champion, and turntablist veteran Enferno, releases a new original single ‘NoNoNo,’ blending moombahton with house and trap vibes.  My first thought listening to this track was this is David Guetta & Nikki Minaj’s “Hey Mama” on speed, but then I came up with another analogy, this is Bakermat’s “Another Man” on crack, and I mean this with all respect towards Enferno, for all my ragers, who just can’t get down with the chill, but rather would get turned up with the hype and the beats. Festival season is an order, don’t be surprised to hear your favorite DJ dropping “NoNoNo,” at a festival near you, we got the premiere! This is a must listen!

Electro | 5 & A Dime’s Newest Single Will Quicken Your “Pulse”

5 & A Dime has been on an absolute tear this year. The first single out of 5 & A Dime’s camp this year was “Pipes,” an electro house monster that destroyed the Ultra mainstage when DJ Snake dropped it this year, and the talented producer followed up that effort with another stellar original, “Wild.” Now, the mash-up-DJ turned producer has delivered his latest effort, “Pulse,” a surefire hit made for the mainstage. The build of “Pulse” is reminiscent of your pulsing heartbeat after a vigorous workout, until the Philly native unleashes a flurry of snarling synths and rolling percussion arrangements that will have you begging for mercy.

When Zedd throws a remix competition, you know it’s going to blow up and attract the attention of tons of producers. In addition to receiving $10,000, the grand prize winner will have a meeting with Interscope executives and studio time with Zedd himself. Golden opportunities like these don’t come often, but when they do, we can assure you that some amazing remix entries will be released during the process.

Today, we’re excited to show you Crankdat’s take on the original record, ‘I Want You to Know’ by Zedd and Selena Gomez. The Ohio-based producer flips the radio-friendly track into a hard-hitting trap banger, but then switches it up with a melodic future bass drop in the second half of the production. It’s clear that this young artist has to production chops to make waves in this scene and only time will tell whether or not he’ll be able to separate him from the pack.

HiFadility released another chill edit from The Queens concept project, an edit of the 1992 SWV classic, “Weak”.  After the Lauryn Hill and Queen Latifah tracks, we were interested to hear what this artist has created, so we checked it out.  Everything sounds so out of the box, in a good way.  In the case of this track, the juxtaposition between the synths, which sound so original and blend well with the throwback vocals, and his new electronic flip that takes place a third of the way in, takes the track to another level. This track is definitely worth the play and great for riding in cars with the windows down, another solid summer jam.

HiFadility dropped another exciting edit, an isolation of Lauryn Hill’s vocals from The Fugee’s “Ready or Not” track with a very luxurious hip-hop/world instrument electronic sound.  What really makes this track worth supporting is the thoughtfulness involved in the arrangement of quality sounds, and the attention used in choosing the vocal arrangement.  HiFadility is part of a movement that is bringing consciousness back into popular culture.

HiFadility, whose tagline is “peace, love and prosperity”, seems to ask for intention and awareness out of life that he also likes to deliver within his music, allowing him to create really intricate and interesting pieces. Before releasing this track, he asked himself the question of why he decides to make, release and engage in the music industry.  He replied with the idea of: “What does make creating music worth the while is the mystery.” Later that night, at the release of the Lauryn Hill track, he simply posted an infinity sign, “?”, indicating the infinite nature of our being and sound, the thrilling mystery of music, and how it magically touches our soul.

The ability to make chill bangers, songs that are laid back but still get you pumped up, is pretty unique, so make sure to check out this track, it’s just in time for the summer feels.  HiFadility will be releasing more videos and tracks in relation to this concept project, The Queens EP, over the duration of the summer, so be sure to follow HiFadility on his social media, soundcloud, tumblr, twitter, for more gems.
