Trap | $aturn – Cross Roads ft. Skrux
Posted by BP on February 21, 2014
The combination of $aturn and Skrux caught my attention immediately, and I knew this would be a good track. $aturn has been putting out a good bunch of “lovetrap” style songs recently, and getting Skrux involved could only make them better. In this track called “Cross Roads ft. Skrux” each drop is different and exciting. While remaining melodic, this original trap song takes many twists and turns. Personally, my favorite drop is around 2:30. Scoop this one up for free on Facebook!

Progressive House | Kill FM ft. Leah Hayes – Lies (Melodic Mix)
Posted by Mel on February 19, 2014
The Swedish production duo by the name of Kill FM released their original mix of “Lies” a little over a week ago and to celebrate, are giving away their melodic mix to that very track. If you are familiar with the original, the melodic mix is literally the same exact thing, with the only difference being the drop. Kill FM, brilliantly named, is known for their bass heavy take on electro house and that is what the original song was. The melodic mix, however, is exactly what it sounds like, uplifting. Also, possibly melodic. The drop seems to fit more naturally in this version making it my preferred of the two.

Electro, Hip-Hop, Trap | Cashmere Cat – Rice Rain (Twinztrack Remix)

This rework of Cashmere Cat‘s “Rice Rain” is fun and catches your attention right off the bat. Personally, I love the use of the rain drop sample… so perfectly constructed. Twinztrack is definitely on my radar now.
Electro | DSK CHK Debuts “WIL” (What Is Love)
Posted by BIGLIFE on February 9, 2014
Recently debuted for a packed house on the final set of the infamous Groove Cruise 10 Year Anniversary, “WIL” brought the crowd to a roar. The SHM classic style chords mixed with nasty drop that bangs out on all cylinders has been teased now for quite awhile. DSK CHK intro’s a new protege only known as “Brink” and consistent with the DC packaging, there is little known about the artist in the cameo.
DSK CHK leaves us with a steaming hot trailer that would make 50 Shades of Grey look like a high school date. You MUST check this out, but warning, this is not work place friendly!

Electro-House, Progressive House | Chris Avantgarde – Colours, Discovery
Posted by Mel on February 5, 2014
Chris Avantgarde is a relatively unknown German producer who, aside from the mysterious release on Size that has yet to come to fruition, has largely flown under the radar. Although his releases have been few and far between, he has been busy producing and is now providing us with a constant stream of tracks. “Colours” and “Discovery” are his first two songs he has given away. “Colours” is a typical progressive track lead by a big melody and “Discovery” is his take on electro house and the current festival sound. The drop in “Discovery” is not the most inspired but the breakdown in it is great.

Our friends over at Monstercat hit me with a track by UK duo Lets Be Friends “FTW” that is leaving me completely stumped and inspired! Rarely does my jaw drop, and lead me to ask “what the fuck is this?” in the most positive way possible. Lets Be Friends went hard with this production, and as the title states, they went straight for the win! If you happen to add this to your playlist for the car, make sure you check your sped-o-meter, you might catch yourself doing over 100mph and not realize it, that’s how hard this goes. This is hands down a must listen and support by copping it on Beatport!

Abstract Hip-Hop | Vulkan The Krusader – Echo Chamber (Prod. by Yakamoto Kotzuga)

NYC via FLA emcee Vulkan The Krusader has been locked away in his studio hard at work for the past year. The spoils are set to drop on Feb 14th, Valentines day in the form of VX13, featuring a 13 original joints that range from future boom bap to dream-wave chill, with collabs from Sean Price, Kyle Rapps and Spaceman and more.
Vulkan tells me that “Echo Chamber” was written from the perspective of a love struck homicidal maniac whom he read about in a newspaper article. Ranging from purposefully slightly off key vocals to his on-point, punchy delivery, this track serves as nice cross-section of his talents, but there is so much more, stay tuned.
