Electro, Hip-Hop, Rap | Galimatias & Joppe – One Step Back (ft. GoldLink)
Posted by admin on February 13, 2014
After proving he could conquer a “typical” hip-hop beat, spitting atop Kendrick Lamar’s “The Heart Pt. 2”, GoldLink is back in his production wheelhouse with the dreamy-deephouse sounds of Galimatias and Joppe. The two Danish producers have been making music together for some time now, and luckily they connected with the Virginia native through the future production label, Soulection.
The song has already amassed an astounding twenty thousand plays in the first 24-hours, and shows no signs of slowing down! Although, “One Step Back” will not be a part of GoldLink’s upcoming project, The God Complex, it’s a very strong addition to his musical catalogue. Enjoy the free download and be on the look out for an official release date of The God Complex sometime next week.
Progressive House | Ellie Goulding – Goodness Gracious (The Chainsmokers Remix)
Posted by Mel on January 21, 2014
An official remix of Ellie Goulding’s “Goodness Gracious” is the third release in January so far for The Chainsmokers and with their first original coming out next week, they are having an incredibly strong start to the year. They say this is their favorite remix they have done in a while and understandably so because it is one of their best productions. A lot of people say that Drew and Alex of The Chainsmokers are nothing more than one good looking guy and one okay looking guy (Alex) but that is clearly not the case. They had a huge year in 2013 and they are on pace to have an even bigger 2014. No word yet on the release date.
Dubstep, Electro-House | Illenium – Risen EP
Posted by Middy on January 16, 2014
We first introduced you to Illenium’s melodic dubstep single “Drop Our Hearts” and then gave you the exclusive download of his powerful, glitchy tune “For Truth“. Now the date has come for Nick Miller, known to an increasing number as Illenium, to release his debut EP as a free download.
He kicks off the EP with a bouncy tune that gracefully adventures in Melbourne bounce, but remains in tune with his sound with the two step beat. In between “For Truth” and “Drop Our Hearts”, Illenium delivers “Souls”, a deep, bassy tune in the style that has become quite popular in Colorado and seems to be his forte, though the diversity in this EP makes it hard to pinpoint one definitive sound.

Exclusive, Featured, Interviews | The Two Friends Coach Me Through A Kiss Cam With A Committed Woman, Finish A 50 Shades Of Grey Excerpt And More
Posted by Mel on January 14, 2014
The year was 2008. The month was September. It was a brisk Monday morning. The air was thin and the women were thick. A young Matt Halper emerges from his slumber to once again find sentience in his willy after almost a fortnight without. “Ya swooned me bro” he says as he looks across the room at the bottle of Vaseline he sometimes uses. After a quick shower and a thorough application of Old Spice body spray across his unimpressive body, he headed off to school. It was the first day of the school year and he had just moved from the great state of Wyoming to the northeastern region of Guatemala so he was a tad worried that there wouldn’t be any cute girls there, let alone white people. His slightly racist worries were soon cast aside however when on his way to school, he was kidnapped and held for ransom by a middle aged caucasian woman. She didn’t have a weapon or anything, she just simply overpowered him.
Days became weeks and the weeks peaked at three. On the third week of his capture there was a breakthrough. The woman who had intended to hold him for a ransom changed her mind when she realized he was not a very attractive guy so nobody would really care enough to pay a sizable fund for his release, so she just forgot about him. The unexpected demise of Matt Halper was seemingly inevitable at this point and after being trapped in a dark room for weeks, he had just about given up all hope. That is until he heard the undoing of the lock and the door abruptly open. “Here, take this and come with me” a mysterious hooded person said as they tossed him a small cylindrical thing. Matt and his saviour ran through the door only to be confronted by the woman, who was in fact Darth Vader. It was only then that he looked down and realized what it was he was holding. Matt drew his lightsaber and in tandem with the hooded man, began combat with the Sith Lord. They defeated him swiftly and got on the first flight back to America. They were sitting on the plane when Matt broke the silence, looked at his saviour and asked “who are you?”. “The name’s Eli, Eli Manning”.
And that’s the story of how Matt Halper and Eli Sones, known collectively as The Two Friends met. We had a chance to talk to them about mostly non-music related things and it got pretty heated (they insulted my sister but then said jk so I let it slide). Read on for the interview.

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.
