That ass though, man, what a cover art for Electric Bodega’s latest trap remix of Avicii ‘s “You Make Me!” Electric Bodega is made up of Mike Cash and Emilio Sparks, whom you might know from his show on Sirius XM’s Shade 45, and in my opinion this remix is a lot more fun than the original song, and I’m not just saying that cause of the cover art. That ass though…  Enjoy the view, and check out this remix, this is a must listen and must download!

Electronic, Mix | OWSLA After Dark Pt.III: The M Machine – Space Jams

Posted by on September 24, 2013

I have to start by saying that I am still reeling from the Phonat mix; I still sit with mouth agape while listening to it. I am so thankful that there are labels like OWSLA – awesome music is served out on silver platters, and artists that really deserve attention are given just that. I am even more thankful for the artists – like The M Machine and Phonat – that continue to strive to be better and to be different. Robin Thicke could write a song about what these musicians do to genre definitions. With every original, every remix and every mix, The M Machine is changing the way that people think about music. These guys bring ideas to life that are nothing short of brilliant. It truly is amazing that a group of individuals can interweave their respective imaginations into such complete works of art. Their latest work is an hour long mix that aired during the OWSLA time slot on BBC Radio 1Xtra, and in classic M Machine fashion, it exceeds expectations. Forget what you know about genres and rules, and just accept this for the greatness that it is.

Dubstep | Morten – Look Closer (Candyland Remix)

Posted by on September 18, 2013

Since everyone and their mother has been complaining about how slow dubstep is now-a-days, here’s some proof that not all new dubstep is bad! Whenever I see Candyland doing a remix I know it’s going to be something big. Candyland’s remix of “Look Closer” by Morten has two bass-filled drops, with melodic sections of vocals in between. It’s very well produced and grabs your attention immediately. Not to mention the album art is pretty cool.

Electro | B.Dolla – Headhunter

Posted by on July 8, 2013

B.Dolla has always been a favorite in my books because of his “do-what-I-like” attitude. Herbie Hancock made a prolific impact on Dolla’s career and who he his musically, so he decided to take some of that passion and re-work it in to his music. Never mind that the young EDM fans of today probably don’t know the 1960s-age jazz pianist, Dolla thought, I’ll do what I want to do.

“Headhunter” is probably the exact opposite of what you’d expect out of an original track sampling Herbie Hancock. Hard hitting and trap infused, B.Dolla’s newest offering is most definitely one to be bumped at summer gatherings and a song that I can see thousands of fans wildin’ out to at a festival or two.

Last, slightly off-topic, but the album art for “Headhunter” is pretty stunning. That’s a great element to have going for you when submitting music. The art is the first thing bloggers see, and when it’s done professionally I’ll assume the music is just as professional!

Drum & Bass | Selena Gomez – Come & Get it (Dotcom Remix)

Dotcom Music
Plain and simple, the only thing hotter than this album art is the song itself. Up and comer, Dotcom has been on fire recently stirring quite a buzz in the dubstep community. Today he delivers a heavy drum and bass remix to Selena Gomez’s “Come & Get it” that makes it acceptable for a 23 year old man to be blasting Selena Gomez on his way to work (I may or may not do that to the original version as well).

Progressive House | Chris Reece – Complicated

Living in the Texas of Canada, I naturally have a tendency to enjoy country music. I’m not really sure if country is big in texas but with all the cowboy hats and horses there I have to assume it is. You may also notice horses and a gentleman with a cowboy hat in the song art above so you should probably know what I’m alluding to. Part of the Helvetic Nerds, Chris Reece is a long established producer. It’s sort of his thing to fuse different genres, such as jazz and rock into the standard progressive house formula. In “Complicated”, his latest release, the style he has chosen to infuse is country. This song is likely not for everybody, especially if you hate cute little puppies and freedom, but this was the first song I have bought in a long time (though on a pre-paid visa my aunt got me for christmas, no way I’m using my own money) so I thought I should share. If you give it a try you might like it. If not, well then I only have one thing to say. If you think it’s a good idea for the storyline to involve a lengthy massage, it’s not.
