It hasn’t even been an hour, and Thomas Jack’s latest release “Symphony,” premiered on Interview Magazine , is already blowing up. The JFK speech sampled in the record flows perfectly to the bass, leading you right into the smoothest saxophone line you’ve heard in a minute, layered with some hypnotic piano keys. I wish I had the right words to describe this piece, but you’re going to want to listen to this tropical house track, cause once it’s over, you’re going to want more! Keep it up Mr Jack, keep sending the good vibes! Must listen and must download!

Progressive House | Magnus & Timon feat. MAGE – By Myself
Posted by Mel on October 23, 2013
After a 10 month hiatus, Magnus & Timon returned a few weeks ago with a free track entitled “Svart” and they have just released another one. Like “Svart”, “By Myself” lends itself more to live events with the clubbier drop, but because of the superb vocals of MAGE and the indie popish break, it also makes for good listening in any situation. This is their first track that is not free so if you are a fan think about maybe supporting them.
Chill, Indie | Of Monsters and Men – Little Talks (Thomas Jack Remix)
Posted by VMan on October 8, 2013
The Aussie Thomas Jack is as it again with the remix game, and he’s either been reading my posts, or he just knows what’s good, cause this remix of Monsters And Men’s record “Little Talks” is exactly what needed to be done. All of these hit indie records deserve the remix treatment: throw some claps on there, some light piano chord progressions, a wind instrument of your choosing, and you can send that straight to the dancefloor. Look forward to catching his live set at Webster Hall October 22nd, on the East Coast leg of his Fall 2013 US tour. Must Listen and Must Download!

Progressive House | Paramore – Still Into You (Topher Jones fREeMIX)
Posted by Mel on October 3, 2013
Guys, you know how sometimes things go terribly wrong and you end up having to wipe the back of the toilet and/or think about changing your pants but it was clear af like it always is cause you mostly drink water so you don’t have to? Well guess what happened to me a couple minutes ago… I remembered how my gym teacher in the tenth grade said that she liked my hair and I just now realized that she was flirting with me. I’m sure that it’s not even a question as to whether or not she is still into me because I mean why wouldn’t she be. Chicago native Topher Jones is clearly still into Paramore’s “Still Into You”, seeing as how he remixed it a couple days ago and is giving it away for free. Honestly, the production quality of this track isn’t very high. The melody is catchy though and the drop is nice (and obviously the vocals are too), so it makes the cut. Cut is the better option and so is chewing gum loudly with your mouth open right next to me.

It’s Sunday, which means you may need something chill music to relax to. However, Breaking Bad is coming to an end, which will elevate blood pressure and heart rates worldwide, possibly cause a few panic and heart attacks, par for the course. This soothing remix from Passion Pit will do the trick to help calm you down.

House, Techno | BLAZ – Idiot // A-Spec
Posted by Spice on September 12, 2013
Some techy madness for those of you like to go van deeper. Blaz is a producer out of Austin (#ATX baby) who likes to keep it dark, minimal, and borderline analog. “Idiot” is robotic future music of the highest order and “A-Spec” is the kind of track that, if played loudly and on repeat in the dark, will quickly cause you to lose much of your ability to keep track of time. Check them out below — free DLs; get weird on this rainy Thursday.
Events | Sunday Of Electric Zoo Canceled Due to “Serious Health Concerns”
Posted by Middy on September 1, 2013
Sunday of Electric Zoo has been canceled. If you are reading this and getting ready for the festival, stop and go back to bed because today is not happening. In conjunction with the Mayor’s office, Made Event, agreed to cancel Sunday after 2 people died over the course of Friday and Saturday and at least another 4 became seriously ill and needed to be hospitalized. The cause for the hospitalizations is not known yet, but it is presumed to be MDMA consumption. Before we start pointing fingers and blaming this person and that person, realize that this is a tragedy and two people died, so our hearts and prayers go out to the families and friends of the those who died, and we hope for a speedy recovery for those hospitalized. However, at some point these needless deaths at festivals have got to come to an end and soon because they are going to bring this to a halt.
Made Event has released a statement on the matter:
The founders of Electric Zoo send our deepest condolences to the families of the two people who passed away this weekend. Because there is nothing more important to us than our patrons, we have decided in consultation with the New York City Parks Department that there will be no show today.
