Electronic | Kill Paris – Falling In Love Again (Feat. Marty Rod & Alma)
Posted by mimada on July 9, 2013
I know it’s probably still light out depending on your time zone, so consider this late night jam your little afternoon delight. Marty Rod and Alma’s vocals are sweet as honey, alluding to an intimate love scene in the back hallway of night club. Then, the duo trigger the drop with their harmonious line, Falling in love again, just like it is in real life. Or so I’m guessing.
Give yourself a chance to fall in love and save up your pennies to catch Kill Paris (and many more!) on the OWSLA stage this September at Tomorrow World.

Progressive House | Dannic – Ignite
Posted by Middy on July 4, 2013
While it can be a bit disheartening to see artists copy themselves pretty severely, like Firebeatz did with “Gangsta” after “Dear New York”, or Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike have done with “Chattahoochee” after “Wakanda”, it is understandable to see them attach themselves to a distinguishing style they have come up for themselves. “Ignite” could be put in that category, but has enough unique characteristics to be seen as a different track. As a follow-up on Toolroom Records, “Ignite” builds on much of the same formula as his previous single “Clobber“, that remains a mainstay of many sets around the world. Keeping the unmistakable groove and funk that is found in “Clobber”, Dannic switches up the bridge and adds a subtle, tougher sound to its distinguishing features. “Clobber” may still remain the favorite of many DJs, but “Ignite” will be a great update as the Northern Hemisphere festival season comes into full swing.

Drum & Bass, Preview | Haywyre – Fluctuate
Posted by Mach on June 22, 2013
Haywyre is still moving along with his Song Per Week Project, and puts out the his Drum & Bass preview. As a first Drum & Bass track or a 100th, this is killer tune. Haywyre gave this track a Neuro flair to it, maintaining that funk that he likes to incorporate in all his music. Of the Song Per Week releases so far, this one is undoubtedly my favorite. Stay tuned for Haywyre’s release for next week.
Electronic, Mix | Kitsuné Soleil Mix 2 // Pyramid – The Summer Mixtape
Posted by Spice on June 19, 2013
The preternaturally chic folks at Kitsuné have just released two summer mixes that are chock full of warm weather jams for your listening pleasure. The first is a little minimix from Jerry Bouthier and Gildas Kitsuné; if you’re into nu-disco and funky electropop, this is your new mainstay. Hot Chip, Yelle, Viceroy, Tiny Dragons and many more are folded and blended into this brief but awesome mix. This is a great way to gear up for summer fetsival season — or, alternatively, to switch up the rotation in your car. Second is a longer (but just as groovy) mixtape from French producer Pyramid, which features great tracks from Gesaffelstein, Gigamesh, Alex Metric, and of course Pyramid himself. Tracklists after the jump (with song-by-song comments from Jerry Bouthier, in the case of the minimix).

Electronic, House | Disclosure – Settle (Album Review)
Posted by Spice on June 12, 2013
These days, it’s hard to do much of anything on the internet without encountering heaps of reverential praise for the British brother-duo better known as Disclosure. They’ve become the de facto poster children for what’s cool in 2013 and have amassed a following that includes both hipster indie pop enthusiasts and their ravier twenty-something counterparts. Back in March, I remember perusing the calendar at one of my favorite clubs and noticing that they had sold out that upcoming Friday — the first Friday of the second weekend of Ultra, as it were. Not only did this not register with me at the time, but I didn’t even bother to catch them in Miami. Quelle folie. I am usually slow to warm up to bandwagon-y new groups, probably due to the fact that I am effectively a huge music snob in denial, but sometimes the hype becomes too great to overlook and bandwagons get harder and harder to ignore. In the case of Disclosure (and their now very considerable bandwagon), I can confirm that all the hype is utterly justified.
