Electro-House | Maddix – Rampant
Posted by Middy on January 13, 2014
Dutchman Maddix makes his debut on Spinnin’s imprint for up and coming acts, Oxygen, with his latest tune “Rampant”. We saw his potent, melodic electro style in his previous originals and remixes, and here he ramps it up a notch, unleashing a relentless fireball of a tune with powerful electro saws from start to finish. Also if you aren’t feeling the whole Beatport link thing, grab his recent free remix he did for South African band Pestroy, that he did while hanging out with them down in SA.

Electronic, House, Techno | Spice’s Top 10 Tracks of 2013
Posted by Spice on December 22, 2013
2013 was a year of many momentous things. Including the insanely awesome above shot, which was taken by yours truly with a cracked iPhone (and it’s frankly still a mystery as to how I managed to pull it off. I mean, look at that thing. That thing is next level. Eat your heart out, Rukes). In keeping with all the seasonal nostalgia, here are my picks for the best tracks of the year.
Dubstep, Hip-Hop | Drake feat. Sampha – Too Much (Etched Remix)
Posted by W8 on November 26, 2013
Today comes a new remix from the talented Etched, along with his debut album Pixelated that is out now. In the midst of a million and one Drake remixes, this one really is an attention grabber. The drums are fantastic and it’s easy to get lost in. The thing that appeals the most to me about this remix, along with Sampha’s lone release of the track is that they don’t contain the high pitched screeching of his voice like on the original with Drake (probably why Sampha released his own version) Listen up!

Hip-Hop, Videos | Huey Mack- Nothing Will Be The Same (Prod. by Lu Balz) (Drake Medley)
Posted by BIGLIFE on November 25, 2013
Two days ago Huey Mack capped off his second headlining tour, which followed the release of his debut album Pretending Perfection. Over the next 4 months Huey will be releasing free music on Mondays that will consist of remixes and originals. This week he does a medley of two Drake singles, “Too Much and “Furthest Thing”. Check out the video above.
Hip-Hop, Rap | SoulJAH – BlastPhaMe
Posted by VMan on November 23, 2013
The homie SoulJAH sent over this track “BlastPhaMe” where he raps over Schoolboy Q’s “Grooveline” in anticipation for the release of his debut mixtape “JahBless” out November 28. JAH’s been featuring on a few tracks with the NewLA crew, notably on one of my favorite tracks off Joe Cool’s latest mixtape Driver’s Ed “My Word.” At the look of things the boys from Louisiana are about to be a problem, they always deliver with bars that stand out and rap with meaning. Shout out to Louisiana, this is a must listen!

After releasing his debut album Pretending Perfection and reaching #3 on the iTunes charts, Huey gives us the official video to the album’s title track. Pretending Perfection tells the story of Huey Mack. It coves the ups and downs, the perks, and struggles along the way from the West Virginia kid. Check out the video and grab the album below if you haven’t!
Electronic, Preview, Progressive House | Mat Zo – Lucid Dreams (ilan Bluestone & The M Machine Remixes) [Preview]
Posted by Spice on November 19, 2013
“Lucid Dreams” is already one of the biggest tracks on Mat Zo’s by-all-accounts-totally-awesome debut album, and now it gets the remix treatment from two of the scene’s most interesting players. Anjuna mainstay ilan Bluestone brings a bold, big room touch to Mat Zo’s dreamy original, while The M Machine are marching to their own drummer (as usual) with a a trappy, minimal bassline that gives the song a totally different vibe. The full package is set to drop on November 26th — just in time for Thanksgiving travels.
