DJ-Set, Electro-House | Feed Me Essential Mix
Posted by Middy on September 8, 2012
The super talented and multi faceted Feed Me was the latest to take the reigns of the legendary BBC Radio One Essential Mix and Feed Me made the absolute most of it. He plays almost exclusively all songs from his very expansive discography, mixing in tracks under his moniker Spor and the one other track comes from mau5trap label head deadmau5, with his unreleased work “Fn Pig”. There are whole host of unreleased tracks in this mix not only under Feed Me, but also under his Spor alias. The unreleased tracks are mouthwateringly good and with all of this material being showcased here, we are possibly seeing the making of another Feed Me EP. Dive right into this superbly mixed essential mix and check out the tracklist after the jump.

The legendary Essential Mix takes us to Privilege Ibiza, the biggest club in the world as certified by the Guinness Book of World Records where Alesso & Sebastian Ingrosso played a 90 minute back 2 back set chock full of unreleased tracks like the Swedish House Mafia’s recently radio debuted track “Don’t You Worry Child“, Sebastian Ingrosso’s collab with Tommy Trash “Reload”, Steve Angello’s upcoming single “Lights” with fellow Size label mates Third Party and more. They go through an extensive selection of both of their recent discographies as well as some of the biggest tracks from the past several months, molding them together into seamless bootlegs. Host, Pete Tong started off the night with some purposeful, groovy tech, house and progressive with Italian legend, Benny Benassi closing out the night with one of his eclectic, high energy sets.

DJ-Set, House | Coldplay – Charlie Brown (Jacques Lu Cont Mix)

The more I listen to this song, the more I love it. It flawlessly combines dark, club elements with happy vibes from the Coldplay original. He keeps much of the original melody and the vocals, while adding his own spin on it with a quick moving snare, an infectious whistle top line that will get stuck in your head, a dark, grungy melody to give this track almost a dual personality with the various styles coming together and mixing impeccably. You have to expect this from a veteran such as Stewart Price and we will see more from him soon. Also check out his Essential Mix recently aired on BBC Radio One, which despite his longtime friendship with Pete Tong and support from the radio station was his first mix. It combines a plethora of different sounds from nu-disco to techno to tech to progressive and everything in between. Tracklist after the jump.
Preview, Progressive House | Keane – Silenced by the Night (Alesso Remix)
Posted by Spice on April 2, 2012
Let me just say: whoa. Whoa whoa whoa. Sebastian Ingrosso’s young protege serves up yet another piping hot dish of delicious, stadium-ready progressive house and even though I don’t normally like posting previews this one is too good to pass up. Alesso has been teasing this dazzling melodic gem for the past few weeks (he even dangled it right in front of us during his recent Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1), and now that a full preview is up on Soundcloud it seems pretty clear: this is going to be effing big.
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, I have to admit that I currently have more questions than answers. How many times am I going to hear this song during the next six months? Will I get sick of it? Why can’t I embed a miniature Alesso into my head so that things like this can be piped directly into my brain at all times? And most importantly: Keane? Where have you been lately? The last time I listened to Keane, I’m pretty sure I was fourteen, being driven to the orthodontist, and sporting a first-gen iPod and a picture of Josh Hartnett in my binder cover. Whatever, we’ve all been there. Stay tuned for the release date and listen to this soon-to-be anthem below.

Lost in all of the WMC and UMF madness was the fact that Alesso was featured on BBC Radio One’s legendary Essential Mix show. Alesso really makes the most of these 2 hours flawlessly transitioning from one song to the next making the 2 hours fly by. You will hear the best of from the past couple months including “Trio“, “In My Mind” and “Rise“, as well as the best songs he has put out in his career. He puts together some really good bootlegs, combining the old and the new. He plays a whole host of unreleased tracks from himself and others including Avicii – Silhouettes (could it be a sign of a release at some point this year?) and the electro bomb “Boss” from Jonas Torn on Le7els. He plays his collaboration with Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso “Eclipse (Why Am I Doing This)“, the radio world premier of the vocal mix of his upcoming single “Years”, Alesso’s remix of Keane – Silence By the Night that he has been raving about and a brand new ID from Alesso that is really something special (as seen above, ignore the “ID3” title, it is just an ID). This Essential Mix rivals Arty’s for early contenders as Essential Mixes of the year, so hit play and let Alesso take on a two hour EDM journey. Tracklist after the jump.

Progressive House | M-3ox ft. Heidrun – Beating Of My Heart (Matisse & Sadko Remix)
Posted by Middy on March 4, 2012
I must edit my post yesterday about “Matisse & Sadko Monday” because this song has been released a day early and I could not be any happier. As first played by Arty in his essential mix, this song represents pure bliss, euphoria, happiness; it is simply an amazing song. The vocals combined with the production from Matisse & Sadko makes this easily one of the best songs of the year so far.

Finally we we have the official preview and release date of Arty and Matisse & Sadko’s massive track “Trio”. It is to be released on the 5th what I am dubbing “Matisse & Sadko Monday”, because their remix of M-3ox feat. Heidrun – Beating Of My Heart, as played by Arty in his Essential Mix is also getting released. The Russians are coming and there is nothing you can do to stop them. Sebastian Ingrosso released his the second episode of his podcast “Refune Radio”. He continues the trend from the first episode of exclusive and unreleased in the second episode with plays of Nari & Milani – Atom, the aforementioned “Trio”, Axwell’s edit of NO_ID’s massive track “How R U Feeling Right Now”, and more. He catches up with Alesso and they talk about hey they met and came together to collaborate and Seb plays their collaboration “Calling (Lose My Mind), as well as Alesso’s upcoming single “Years”. A great episode with another to come after WMC, which should include some brand new tracks from artists there as well as a clip from a new original track from the Swedish powerhouse.
