This remix is the beginning of Kelvin House. We were sent this remix along with two unreleased Kelvin tracks and we can tell you now, Kelvin is about to blow up. If you aren’t already familiar with Lash do yourself a favor and check out their soundcloud here. Our hats go off to both Kelvin & Lash for this incredible remix.

Not sure how I’ve missed this track by Michael Calfan “Prelude,” but with just a few days before the release on September 12th via Spinning Records, I still have time to get myself acquainted with this progressive vocal house gem, and I just made that term up, because in all honesty it’s straight house, with hints of French house and glitch house if I say so myself. Having named the record “Prelude” one can only anticipate that is just the beginning, and I sure as hell can’t wait to hear what more Michael Calfan has in store for us! This is a must listen, get lost to that piano!
Mainstream Remix | The Weeknd – Often (Kygo Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on July 28, 2014
I’ve seen a lot of talk lately about Kygo signing to Sony. Some congratulated, some even claimed this was the beginning of the end. It’s incredible to me that fans, or people who claim to be, wouldn’t want to see their favorite artist progress. Fans don’t understand how hard it is to make a living in this music scene. The barriers to entry are higher then they’ve ever been. What Kygo has done is unprecedented, yet fans have this ill-informed notion that Sony is going ruin his brand. Sure, major labels are notorious for messing up an artist’s brand. We’ve seen many artists (sadly) come and go because they signed. Kygo, and his team, are too smart to let that happen. Kygo is going to be just fine.
Hip-Hop | RICK ROSS – THE DEVIL IS A LIE (FT. JAY Z)
Posted by Hamtaro on December 19, 2013
Rozay releases the anticipated song The Devil Is A Lie with Jay Z today and it was well worth the wait. The combo of Ross and Jay is one of my favorites in hip hop and I hope more is to come after this and You Know I Got It. Look for Bosses album MasterMind at the beginning of 2014.
Hip-Hop, Rap, Trap | Kanye West – Flashing Lights (TWRK Remix)
Posted by yabishcic on November 27, 2013
At the beginning this song makes out to be just another twerk remix with claps on claps on claps… but once the synths kick in, this remix goes from twerking to trapping. Such a good collaboration of the two genres and use of the sample. Don’t get me wrong – I have a strong love for the original, but the way that TWRK has redone the edit, completely new way of listening to the song without getting bored!
Alternative, Indie, Pop | NAIMAH – Wolf & I // Bittersweet Refrain
Posted by Spice on November 25, 2013
I’m interrupting my regularly scheduled deep/tech house programming to deliver your ears some absolutely gorgeous indie-pop from one of D.C.’s newest and brightest songbirds. Back from #DTLA after four years at USC, 22 year-old Naimah brings a lyrical, dreamy touch to the two wonderfully assured productions below. The haunting “Wolf & I” — not an Oh Land cover, mind you — is simultaneously delicate and warm, thanks to stirring vocals and a languid yet evocative arrangement. “Bittersweet Refrain” features similarly tight vocal harmonies and heady instrumental builds, but the main highlight is really Naimah’s voice — which has a distinctly ethereal quality without sacrificing power. Par excellence. Naimah will soon be releasing her debut EP Reverie, so this is surely not the last you’ll be hearing from her — in fact, I think it’s safe to say that this is just the beginning.

Electro, Pop | Great Good Fine Ok – You’re The One For Me
Posted by VMan on September 21, 2013
“You’re The One For Me” by Brooklyn band Great Good Fine OK is the track that marks the end of Summer, and the beginning of Fall. This is the band’s first track on their SoundCloud, and at the sound of things, I’m sure they have a lot more dope records on their way. If I were to compare their sound to any other sound out there it’d be Passion Pit. Play this record and hear why. Enjoy the free download! Must listen and must download!
