Electro | Arcade Fire – Afterlife (Flume Remix)
Posted by dshaq on August 11, 2014
So if you read my Lolla post, you’d understand that Flume was easily my favorite show at Lolla and probably one of my favorite artists out right now. So to my surprise 10 minutes ago I saw he released a brand new song, with another Dshaq favorite Arcade Fire. This track is crazy, it takes all of your previous knowledge of Flume and throws it out the window. Another slow build up, meets a funky deep house drum kit and he just rides that out for the whole track, tweaking the vocals, which all come together nicely. Even though its 10 minutes, it’s worthwhile. Enjoy.
Electro | FNT Premiere: Obeyah – Drunk In Baltimore
Posted by admin on July 21, 2014
Another “Drunk In Love” remix you say? Yes, I reply. Absolutely, yes. “Drunk In Baltimore” is a funky, club-ready record from D.C. based producer, Obeyah. Featuring a select few sped-up vocals from Beyonce, the song certainly spins the original on it’s head and keeps you fist-pumping for it’s full three and a half minute duration. And it’s this excitement and energy that Obeyah has been able to bring to countless shows and events including the Mad Decent Block Party, and an opening gig for RL Grime.
Obeyah doesn’t add any unnecessary fluff to the record, the production is simple, refreshing, and enjoyable. Grab this download and spice up your Monday night a bit.
Chill, Electronic | Esta. – Lexo
Posted by BP on July 3, 2014
Esta’s new track “Lexo” isn’t coming to us in the usual way. This track is released under Visual Vibez, specifically in a new project called “Selfless”. To quote Visual Vibez, “Selfless is a month long campaign where independent musicians donate songs to support an art/music based non-profit or charity.” The nonprofit that this track supports is called MusicianCorps. There is an option to download for free, or you can choose to support. As for the track, its chill and flows with Esta’s traditional style. The high notes are most memorable, decorating the funky masterpiece with summer vibes. Check it out for yourself!

Progressive House | Fehrplay – Everywhere You Go
Posted by Middy on June 30, 2014
Eric Prydz is my favorite producer, so it is only logical for that love to follow to his protégés Jeremy Olander and Fehrplay. I have found it somewhat odd that Fehrplay signed over with Ultra, which he did with a flourish at Mysteryland, however I am sure the business side of things made sense. His debut release on the label has everything you want from the Swedish prog sensation, with a super funky bass line, fluttering arps and piano to bring it all together.

Pusher’s “Feel U” track is fresh, no doubt about it! A trustworthy music tastemaker put me on to this dope track just the other day, which incorporates glitch, trap, 90’s R&B, and old school video game sounds to create a retro funky nostalgic energy, and I’ve been intrigued ever since! Let your ears figure this one out, and keep an ear out for that Britney Spears sample “hit me baby one more time” buried in the beat (it’s there). If you’re looking for something refreshing, this one’s for you! This is a must listen and a must download!

Chill, Electronic | She The Monster – I Like You The Way You Are (Lightfoot Remix)
Posted by BP on June 11, 2014
If you’re in need of a new chill track, here’s a gem for your collection. Lightfoot remixed “I Like You The Way You Are” by She The Monster into a mellow masterpiece. The Boston based producer’s drums are on point, as well as the melody. Lightfoot is a creator of hiphop beats and instrumentals, but I am loving this track with vocals since they fit so well over the relaxing beat. This song would be excellent to play on a warm summer night. The funky vibes are free to download right from Soundcloud!
