Dubstep, Trance | Röyksopp – Running To The Sea Ft. Susanne Sundfør (Seven Lions Remix)
Posted by J-Tiffy on December 2, 2013
It has taken a long time for me to gather enough nerve to write this review, because this piece of music intimidates me so much. I don’t know how to accurately convey the way that this song made me feel when I heard it for the first time. I was on a crowded city bus, but felt completely alone. I didn’t feel lonely, rather, I felt as if I had been transported away by the music, and was in a different place than the people around me. I moved to the music without regard for the perceptions or judgments of strangers in my vicinity, and it felt surreal.
House, Trap | Calvin Harris Ft. Ayah Marar – Thinking About You (EZRA Remix)
Posted by Mach on November 14, 2013
Taking the popular Calvin Harris and one of dance music’s hottest vocalist Ayah Marar, up and coming producer EZRA evolves this gem into a truly vibing Trap remix. One can’t ignore the use of House on this track and how flawlessly it blends with EZRA’s Trap work. Not the typical Trap blending you see right now, I hope EZRA has more great work like this up his sleeve right now.

Electro-House | TheFatRat – Dancing Naked
Posted by Middy on September 20, 2013
TheFatRat returns with a wild new single that blends funky disco and gritty electro into one seamless track. The video adds a very interesting element to the whole track, taking TheFatRat into various elements of pop culture from the “Levels” video, to “Thriller”, to Lion King, to Minecraft, Super Mario and many more. The video shows the talents of the German producer in not only music, but also in video production and editing. He has always been known for being original, and both the production and video reinforce that trend. We look forward to more TheFatRat produced videos in the future.
Progressive House | YesYou ft. Marcus Azon – Frivolous Life (Vlad Lucan Remix)
Posted by Middy on June 23, 2013
Romanian producer, Vlad Lucan has already had a successful career in Romania as a hip hop producer, and has recently looked to parlay that success into the realm of dance music. With his latest effort, he takes on Australian duo YesYou‘s single “Frivolous Life“. Centered around the indie-styled vocals of Marcus Azon, Vlad Lucan adds his own easygoing melody that blends well with the original track and makes this both danceable and very soothing to listen to at the same time. The remix is free and has been supported by YesYou themselves, so you have no reason not to grab it.
Hip-Hop, Videos | Lucki Eck$ – Everything Out$ide
Posted by dshaq on June 3, 2013
“I could never get stained, I’m like your special outfit”
Lucki Eck$ is an emerging Chicago rapper that has a very interesting sound that blends an east coast and Chicago sound together. A very slow tempoed, clams casino-esque beat that allows Lucki to spit some very good wordplay over. A lot of promise from Lucki and the rest of the emerging rap scene in Chicago, so be on the lookout for more to come.
Preview, Progressive House | Laidback Luke & Hardwell – Dynamo (Preview)
Posted by Middy on March 28, 2013
Yup that title is right, Hardwell & Laidback Luke coming together on one massive track that has been wreaking havoc somewhat secretly or not over the past few weeks, especially at WMC. The track clearly blends the best of both worlds from the two artists with the big room talents of Hardwell and Laidback Luke’s bass lines and dutch influenced synth leads. Get this track April 22nd from Laidback Luke’s Mixmash Records.
Progressive House | Vicetone – Harmony
Posted by Middy on December 13, 2012
In their first Beatport release, Vicetone brings their high octane progressive house sound the highly prolific Monstercat Recordings that has garnered an almost cult like following and a reputation of catching artists before they make a name for themselves. The track gives you everything you expect from Vicetone with a driving synth progression and blends it with an orchestral arrangement that sounds like it would in a pre-battle scene of a medieval war movie. It is crazy how far these guys have come from July of this year and they show no signs of stopping. 2013 should be a huge year for these guys as they continue to put out great tracks.
