Electronic, Indie | Kid Astray – Taking You With Me (Alizzz Remix)

Posted by on July 9, 2014

Alizzz’s official remix of “Take You With Me” by Kid Astray is packed with feels. This emotional remix is top notch and provides a nostalgic vibe. While remaining on the chill side of electronic, this track has enough speed and percussion to push it away from words like mellow. Alizzz is from Barcelona, and is currently on tour in Europe. Under Diplo’s label, Mad Decent, Alizzz just keeps dropping banger after banger. Grab this track for free if you’re feelin’ it.

Tonight I thought I’d post something chill to go along with the stormy weather we’re having here in Chicago. “Don’t Stop” by Lobster Music is some chill trap to add to your collection. Lobster Music is a duo from the UK made up of Wizard and Scizzahz, under Cream Collective. This track will be featured on Lobster Music’s new ‘Cognac & Cohibas’ EP coming out on July 4th. Mellow trap beats guide Lana samples along through this skillful track. This track will be available for free on the new EP as well as the rest of the tracks. The EP will be available for download on Wizard’s Soundcloud page. Stream it below until then!

Chill, Electronic | Last Lynx – Curtains (Dinnerdate Remix)

Posted by on May 29, 2014

German producer DINNERDATE is on a roll lately. We’ve seen quite a number of delightful and diverse releases from him the past couple weeks, including his most recent with Fabich & Ferdinand Weber, “Souls Together.” This time around, he brings us a remix of the Swedish “60’s organic pop” group, Last Lynx. Dinnerdate put his signature touch on it, with those calm electronic house vibes that just carry you away into the sunset. Simply perfect.

DO SOMETHING

Deep House | Fabich & Ferdinand Weber, Dinnerdate – Souls Together

Fabich & Ferdinand Weber, Dinnerdate - Souls Together
It’s late, you want something chill to wind down after a long day. In steps Dinnerdate country mates Fabich & Ferdinand Weber, who you may know under their alias Juun for a special, soothing deep house gem. Fully equipped with male vocal hooks and female shouts, the tune meanders along fluttering drums, chords and piano that come together exquisitely. Dinnerdate has been a solo operator to this point, but after seeing this track, I really hope he does more collabs.

Chill, Electronic | cln – Better Than

After teasing us with a handful of remixes, Aussie producer cln finally treats us to the first *free* single off his upcoming EP. “Better Than” is perfectly chill for whatever mood you’re in today, be it up or down. For best results, put your headphones on loud and this track on loop and get lost.

Chill, Electronic | Tom Misch – Soulection White Label: 008

Posted by on April 17, 2014

The methods of which Soulection uses to discover its vast spectrum of artists is as impressive and mysterious to me as the natural phenomenon of the Northern Lights, yet they’ve got it down to a science and are doing the world a great justice by sharing their findings gratuitously and by the plenty. Soulection features countless artists from each and every genre, but their White Label selections are something extra special, showcasing newcomers who are really bringing something to the table. I found this past week’s pick, Tom Misch, to be probably one of my favorites out of the series so far. This *free* White Label release features three tracks, all of which are incredibly executed and in my opinion, really represent the characteristic sound of Soulection (which as you can hear almost always has its roots in Dilla).

By the way, did you know Tom Misch is only 18 years old? Slayin’ em, Soulection, just slayin’ em.

Chill, Electronic | Kamandi & Polo – AASB EP

Posted by on April 12, 2014

This EP is just too cool to pass up. Kamandi and Polo have created a seven day gradual release program for the “AASB” EP. Followers get one track (on Bandcamp) and the corresponding video (on Youtube) released per day until it’s all out for sale! We are on day six now, but I couldn’t wait until day seven to post this because it caught my attention so quickly. Each track, named by a different symbol, has a unique atmosphere to it. The bass in these tracks is mind-blowing if you’ve got the right system. All the tracks are smooth, ambient, and mysterious. The vibes in this EP are hard to describe, but may be somewhere along the lines of dark, emotional, and chill. I’ve attached two tracks from Soundcloud. Click on the Bandcamp link to hear the rest and purchase the whole EP!
