Indie, Progressive House | Phoenix – Trying To Be Cool (The Chainsmokers Remix)
Posted by Mel on May 6, 2013
Much like the overweight girl with a great personality, The Chainsmokers have, for the most part, been ignored. Ignored by unattractive girls and the aforementioned overweight girl that is, because they know they have no chance with these guys. Damn they’re attractive. I haven’t actually seen them, except in my dreams, but I imagine with their multiple 100k plus played tracks on Soundcloud that it would be so. Continuing their trend of remixing indie bands, the duo have decided to take a spin at remixing Phoenix’s “Trying To Be Cool”. If you know of The Chainsmokers then you know what to expect from this. A fun, upbeat song with a hint of both house and indie. They have definitely done this track justice, with this possibly being better than the original.

Dubstep | MUST DIE! – Octopus
Posted by Sev on March 19, 2013
Wow MUST DIE! went absolutely crazy on his latest release. This talented artist creates so much music that he has no idea what to do with half of it because he already has so many projects in he works with labels. So what better idea than to give it away to his caring fans? Out of his latest free EP we caught a glimpse of an assortment of different genres, but this track of course grasped my attention right away. The bassline is just so meaty and grimy that it punches you right away once the track drops. The nice big-room sounding high synth in the background adds a great atmosphere to the track helping deliver a mean impact to the listener. Grab this amazing free download along with the EP posted below.
Progressive House | Dzeko & Torres vs Crossways – Togi
Posted by Middy on March 18, 2013
Coming off the release of “AMP” & their “Bounced” remix, Dzeko & Torres tab fellow Toronto duo Crossways to create “Togi”, out now on Monstercat Recordings who is coming off of the successful release and still highly charted “Heartbeat” from Vicetone & Collin McLoughlin. Using a vocal sample from Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant song” and a driving, minimal percussive drop, “Togi” sets itself up as a perfect weapon for any one of their WMC gigs. I have no idea what is going on with this video, but it is entertaining nonetheless.

Progressive House | Little Daylight – Overdose (The Chainsmokers Remix)
Posted by Mel on March 13, 2013
Continuing their trend of remixing indie songs, quite possibly the greatest producing duo to ever exist besides Daft Punk and pretty much everyone else, The Chainsmokers have released another classic. For those who are unaware of who these two fine gentlemen are, i’ll briefly describe them. Have you ever thought about taking a bath and then realized what a ridiculous idea that is? Or how about when you’re home alone so you use the washroom with the door open but then your dog comes in and just stares at you. That’s what The Chainsmokers are. They’re the dog that watches you pee and the bath you don’t want to have. “Why is that?” you may ask. Well that’s because they think Leighton Meester is a 6.5 and Megan Fox is a 10.
But enough about their inaccurate scale of objectifying women, they just released a new song. They say it’s by far their favorite remix they’ve done and I can see why. I’m not sure if I like it better than their classic “Around Us” remix, but it’s definitely close. It’s in my top 200 for sure. The Chainsmokers have perfected the formula that they’ve used for their previous remixes. As well as having mastered such a rare thing these days, an intro that I actually enjoy listening to, they have a knack for injecting the energy of house music into songs while keeping much of the feel of the original intact. Sit back, click play, and ponder this wonderful piece of advice I was given by the guys themselves “if you’re anything as witty as you are online, you will likely get laid before you die… 😉

Hip-Hop, House | Funky Friday #2
Posted by Mach on March 1, 2013
How pathetic is it that it has been about 3 weeks since the first Funky Friday post? Talk about a weekly fail, but I am going to revive this idea in full force. Starting out this Friday is a sick funky mix, just so the mood is set right.
Now that the mood is right, it is time to kick off Funky Friday with some real Disco vibes. SyKo has made a few releases that I will never be able to stop listening to. This free orignal takes the cake, it is too good to be true.
Dubstep | Tristam & Braken – Flight
Posted by Mach on February 15, 2013
This is one of the best Dubstep tracks out right now. After giving everyone the biggest tease of a clip earlier this week, we can finally dip our ears into the amazing melody of this track. Tristam & Braken turned out to be a dynamic duo with this. In a way I hope that no one remixes this, it is just too good to waste bad remixes on. To be honest, I have no idea who Braken is and I cannot for the life of me find his Facebook. Monstercat doesnt even refer to Braken. Who ever he is, I want to know. Big ups to both Tristam and Braken for this incredible track.
