Techno | Justin Jay Delivers A Stunning Edit of Barnt’s “Chappell” Ahead of the New Year
Posted by Tay on December 21, 2015
Los Angeles-based producer, Justin Jay, releases his edit of Barnt’s “Chappell” as a gift to us to close out the year. For this release, Justin brings on Henry Was for drumming duties to add to Benny Bridges on guitar. The crew puts their own touch on “Chappell,” with live instruments, driving percussive additions, and subtle production tweaks, and the result exceeds expectations with its overall livening of the techno track. Justin Jay has been changing the game with his innovative stylistic choices, and he’s expected to continue in 2016.
“With Benny Bridges on guitar, I saw this techno anthem by Barnt as a way to start messing around with Henry’s crazy drum sounds. We had so much fun making it and even more fun playing it live. With it being the holiday season, we wanted to give it to you guys (especially DJ’s who need an extra jam for those holiday sets).” – Justin Jay

Bass | TIME PILOT Makes Their Dazzling Debut With “Zulu”
Posted by Tay on December 17, 2015
Few countries have been able to pump out superstars quite like Australia has in recent years. Artists like Flume, Wave Racer, and Snakehips championed the rising future bass sound in America, while others like Anna Lunoe brought her signature brand of bass-y house stateside. This influx of Australian talent has led to the emergence of a new class of Australian artists ready to make their mark on dance music. The Perth-based duo, TIME PILOT, draw inspiration from the likes of Flume, Mr. Carmack, and Snakehips, and these inspirations shine through on his debut track, “Zulu,” as the duo intricately blends their “retro” style with thumping kicks and a booming drop.

Cover, Featured | A Fresh take on Adele’s “Hello” with Leah Haxhi’s New Piano Cover

Leah Haxhi, NYC singer/songwriter, hits us with another Adele cover that rivals all the competition. Keeping it simple with just minimal piano and vocals, this live video gives you the feeling you are sitting right there in the studio with Leah. At first it seems as if she is keeping it very close to the original, but then the second chorus breaks off into a free-style bridge that adds a unique twist to the song. Live studio visuals by Marin Hamataj and Brenton Ruh also complement the relaxed feeling of the cover. We expect to see big things from Leah in the near future, as she is putting together a demo of original songs and also working on new tracks with various DJs and producers such as Afrojack, Shelco Garcia and Teenwolf, and some other hard-hitters in the EDM and pop world. Follow Leah for more music and updates coming soon.

Words cannot describe how groovy this remix is, Vasta absolutely murders it. Vasta is a bit of a mystery, he came out of nowhere, and is now one of the hottest rising stars in dance music. I dont know how to describe his sound, its deep but also melodic, and this remix of Burn helps define his dark, deep drums, and house vibes. Make sure you grab the free download here: Free Download
