Pop, Videos | Jon Bellion – The Making Of ‘One More Time’
Posted by Grubeats on November 5, 2013

Jon Bellion’s creative process begins hours, day, weeks, maybe even months before he opens the doors and enters the studio. It begins as a concept and once Jon enters his element, the creative thoughts and sounds stack like Lego’s. Drums, one of a kind sounds Jon lets loose on the spot, & whatever other tricks he has up his sleeve on that given day – they all fill into each record. For those of you that saw & heard “One More Time” when Jon released it a few weeks back know the seductive story that inspired it all. What daddy don’t know, doesn’t hurt daddy, right? If you missed it or you want to watch it one more time, you can do so here.
Album due out before we hit 2014! Hit the break and see if you can find Bellion’s name in the MMLP2 album insert!
Electronic | KIll J – Phoenix (Galimatias Remix)
Posted by W8 on November 1, 2013
I came across Galimatias months ago snooping through the underworld of Bandcamp compilations, and since stumbling upon him, I’ve kept tabs. This particular remix comes off a collection featuring 9 other Danish electronic artists that you can find at a blog called ”Rekompileret”. Hollow and airy, Galamatias’s take on ”Pheonix” is a gorgeous array of delicate vocals and longing rhythms.

Alternative, Hip-Hop, Videos | Aer – Won’t Laugh

It’s been a few since Northeast duo, Aer, hit us with a new track. While their good vibes, string riffs, & carpe diem lyrics are often associated with “summer music”, “Won’t Laugh” carries their sound through all four seasons. The almost tribal toned intro rings us in, as David picks up the guitar and carries the hook while Carter lays down a few noteworthy verses; “Now you wonder why I wouldn’t trade my life with you, Why?! Cuz you hang the same keys from the same hook every afternoon, My angels lookin down upon me from a great view, they got my back but they hate you”. ‘Do what you love, love what you do’ mentality.
Soaring high, it’s safe to say these guys will be raising the bar on their self entitled album due out January 21st!

Hip-Hop | Azad Right – Now I Know (Prod. By Jonathan Marquez)
Posted by Grubeats on October 24, 2013
Call it a hiatus, a sabbatical, a comeback, a leave of absence; however you may see it, Azad Right is back like he never left. The expectations from hip-hop artists has shifted over the past 5-7 years. Fans expect new music and they expect it often. Azad took a step back to catch his breath after coming out of the gates with fire. Time to analyze, work, focus his sound, perfect his craft. “Now I Know” is a compilation of thoughts, emotions, & knowledge obtained during his time off. With production from his right hand man, Jason Marquez, who crafted a bellowing beat that kicks Azad’s music career back on track.

iTunes: Ayah Marar – Beg Borrow Steal
From the vocalist who brought you Calvin Harris’ festival anthem “Thinking About You,” Ayah Marar releases stunning visuals for “Beg Borrow Steal” off her debut album “The Real.” It seems that everywhere I turn couples are breaking up, as we settle into Fall, and this is the perfect track to get you through the heartache. I’m no love doctor, but you’re going to feel some kind of way after you watch this video, and listen to this record! Also check out iTunes remix package with huge remixes by DSK CHK, The Robot Dentist and UK producers the Super Stylers. MUST LISTEN!
Chill, Electronic, Indie | Tycho – Awake
Posted by W8 on October 15, 2013
After having this track on repeat for the better part of this entire night, Awake unanimously became post worthy. A little more than nothing appeases my interest lately so this was a relief to hear. Tycho arrives back after a brief absence from their last album Dive, out of that came one of the most chillified tunes ever – A Walk that we posted back in ’11. It’s unfortunate that Awake or anything Tycho for that matter has to fall short of summer like this but none the less vote with your dollars and support good music.
