Abstract Hip-Hop, Artists, Chill, Freestyle, Indie, Pop | Leah Haxhi Remedies the Weekday Blues with her New Single “Okay” prod. IAmRizwan
Posted by BIGLIFE on January 26, 2016
Leah Haxhi is a singer songwriter currently working on her upcoming album in NYC. She paired with Bangladeshi producer IAmRizwan to create this atmospheric track that makes us feel like everything will be “Okay”. She free-styled the song in one take and then added harmonies to build out the song and create the organic feeling of the single. Leah is working with various producers and labels such as Afrojack, Armada Music, and MixMash Deep. We last gave you a taste of her EDM style with Armada’s record “When We Were Young” by Jaylex ft. Leah Haxhi, but here she shows us once again that her style cannot be put into any box.

Progressive House | Mikky Ekko – Kids (The Chainsmokers Remix)
Posted by Middy on November 13, 2013
I met one of the members of The Chainsmokers for the first time the other day and was shocked to learn they weren’t moonlighting as professional oil wrestlers in their spare time. They do breed Golden Retrievers and Alex is single ladies, so wink wink, golden retrievers and a very eligible touring bachelor DJ? Hop on that right now (full disclosure I do not know if they breed golden retrievers). One thing I do know for certain because it is right in front of me is that they recently did a remix for Mikky Ekko’s “Kids” and it is the moving progressive house we have come to expect from them. Grab is for free from the giving producers, and maybe they will give you a puppy (probably not).
Hip-Hop | Fortune Family feat. JohnieB – Gravity (Video)
Posted by J_Salzer on May 6, 2013
Boy, have I missed these two. Although I have been in constant communication with Reef, I have been missing the music of he and his partner more than I am willing to admit on a public website. But fear not, the Fortune Fam is back for seconds. When they broke up, I knew it would only be a matter of time before they ran back into each other’s arms like lost puppies because they missed seeing me so eloquently write about their music. Now I’m sure that’s not the only reason, but I’m sure it is one. Their come back effort does not miss a beat, and picks up right where they left off, no doubt Reef has been practicing in his shower waiting for the day where he and Hop reunited. Welcome back to the blogosphere boys, we missed you.
Hip-Hop | Aer – “The Reach” | Hip-Hop
Posted by Mach on March 3, 2011
I posted a track of Aer’s about a week back. As I said before they bring a nice reggae vibe to the hip-hop scene. They dropped this video a few days ago, given the production isn’t up to par of artist like Mike Posner (unless your watching “Bow Chica Wow Wow”). This is still a great track, these guys deserve big respect on it.

BONUS TRACKS
I am never disappointed by what Zion I releases. The verses on this track are FIRE and I’m really feeling this beat.
DOWNLOAD: Zion I & The Grouch – Rockit Man – AMAZING
The verses in this track are kinda messed up, but Tyler, The Creator is a beast on the mic. I warn you that this track gets graphic at points.
