House | Justin Jay Enlists Josh Taylor and Ulf Bonde for Fantastic Voyage Pt. 2
Posted by Juicebox on May 3, 2016
Justin Jay has been on an absolute tear this year. The dirtybird phenom not only announced the release of his debut album, Fantastic Voyage (The Album!), but he also premiered the first four tracks off of his magnum opus, which comprised an EP that has been released on Black Butter Records. As Justin’s Fantastic Voyage tour, which brought SoCal house party vibes all over the world, is starting to wrap up, he’s ramping up the releases again, and he’s starting with the second EP, or part, of his album on Jimpster’s Freerange Records imprint. The two-track EP leads off with “I See You,” an eight-minute track featuring Josh Taylor and Ulf Blonde that takes listeners on a journey through the underground, as Justin lays down a house backbone bolstered by a synth-driven melody and heavy bass kicks. The second track, “Indecision,” is yet another showcase of Justin Jay’s creative genius, as it feels like a tune more fitting for an 80s jazz lounge than a dance imprint, but still displays an undeniable groove. Check out the full EP above.

Chill, Electronic | Jordon Ramz Brings the Warm Weather Vibes with “Golden Hour” EP
Posted by Spice on March 30, 2016
Singer/songwriter/producer Jordan Ramz dropped his debut EP earlier this week and it’s perfectly timed with the onset of post-Daylight Savings Time evenings al fresco. Chilled-out and enticingly tropical, “Golden Hour” is a languorous journey through vibrant sax breakdowns, warm guitar riffs, and rich vocals from the artist himself. The titular track is a must-listen — along with personal favorite “Freedom.” Don’t sleep on the great harmonies in the second verse of “Sunlight,” either. Check out the full EP above.
Pop | Adam Tell Is Back With Refreshing Vocal-Infused EP “Purpose”
Posted by VMan on March 29, 2016
So much is changing in dance music, but one thing you still don’t see alot of is singer + DJ + producer all in one package – and you should! Adam Tell is a vibrant example of the benefits of choosing such a route. The balance of his vocal and the beat transcends genres, making it a refreshing take on what many artists are doing now. Yes, everyone is featuring singers on their tracks, but Adam is different, and the music feels more connected because of this all-in-one authenticity Adam Tell projects.
We also posted his last EP here, so check it out if you haven’t.

You may not know who Hermes is right now, but that is sure to change within the next few months. The LA-based producer / lyricist, Hermes Lopez, just released his debut Mixed Emotions EP, and we can’t stop bumping it. The five-track EP features a diverse collection of sounds and styles, starting with the lead single from the release, “Stay,” a dance-pop anthem with mainstream appeal. Other tracks like “Hearts on Fire” and “Silhouette” are energetic, big room anthems, while the last track on the EP, “Muevelo,” is a slow, reggaeton jam. Check out the full EP above.

Trap | NGHTMRE Shares new Single “Get Back” off upcoming EP
Posted by VMan on February 22, 2016
NGHTMRE has spent the past year solidifying his place in the dance music scene. He has played some of the biggest festivals in the world including EDC LV, TomorrowWorld, Lollapalooza, Snow Globe, and many others. NGHTMRE will drop a new track every two weeks leading up to the release of his EP on March 25.
This past week he blessed us with the third song “Get Back” off the self titled EP. He managed to transform the Ludacris 2004 smash hit into a spiraling rework that is reminiscent of NGHTMRE’s devilish drops.
“I’m always looking for unique 128bpm house music. With “Get Back” I wanted to create a high-energy break beat song that would still fit into a house live set!” – NGHTMRE
Pick it up as a limited free download below before it’s too late to get it back.
