Recent Cash Money Records signee, Caskey, drops an acapella freestyle “Be Humble” keeping his raw lyrics at the forefront. Caskey paints a colorful picture, blending into the “Paint The Trail” fence art you see as the backdrop in this video. Does anyone else feel that Caskey is too lyrically intellectual to be signed to Cash Money? Do you see him going mainstream under his new label? Take a listen to the teased single at the end of this video and tell me this kid isn’t going to have a HUGE year. I’d love to hear him rip an old Mannie Fresh beat, wouldn’t you?
Hip-Hop | The Notorious BIG – Juicy (Yinyues Remix)
Posted by Mach on January 16, 2013
Yinyues seems to be in a Hip-Hop/B.I.G mood this week. Again, I really love the piano with the Hip-Hop. If Yinyues is going to keep making beats like this I hope he keeps the piano. Unlike his last remix, this one isn’t a minute long. Hooray!

Hip-Hop | The Notorious BIG – Think Big (Yinyues Remix)
Posted by Mach on January 12, 2013
Yinyues produces slightly in the abstract, usually some form of chilled out Dubstep, which makes this remix a nice little treat. I really love the piano with the Hip-Hop beat, it is not something you encounter often. I always feel like some of the best tracks are too damn short. Not sure what was going through Yinyues head when he created this gem, but I wish it was longer than it is.

Electro-House | Lana Del Ray – Video Games (Sugar Mill Remix)
Posted by Jess on January 8, 2013
I was recently introduced to Sugar Mill, a rising Electro House duo based out of Wisconsin, and fell in love with their remix of Lana Del Ray “Video Games”. The remix does a great job of keeping with the original melodies and transforming the song into an incredible Electro House tune. It is one of their older works and I’m sure they have some bangers lined up to be released in the near future. In the meantime, check out their back catalog on Soundcloud and become a fan of them on Facebook.

Electro-House | Kaskade & Swanky Tunes ft. Lights – No One Knows Who We Are
Posted by Middy on December 24, 2012
With Kaskade on the shelf from touring after his incredibly arduous and long Freaks of Nature tour this summer, we can expect more productions to be released from him soon, and this collab with Swanky Tunes and Lights is the first to see the light of day. This is one of those either you love it or you hate it songs because it is a strong change from what we have come to love with Kaskade. That does not mean change is a bad thing, but the grinding electro house that Swanky Tunes brings to the table in this track is a strong departure from what we are used to hearing from Ryan Raddon with his uplifting and emotional songs. Personally, I am not that big a fan of it and would love to see some remixes of it, especially with the vocals from Lights, but I can see how others would like this.

Moombahton | Nicky Romero & Nervo – Like Home (Dillon Francis Remix)
Posted by Spice on December 17, 2012
In his remix of “Like Home,” Dillon Francis brings his hallmark sound to Nicky Romero and Nervo’s big collaboration. It’s more or less what you’d expect — bright, high leads and a bouncy drop — but it’s a fun and upbeat listen that will be great live. I’d love to see Dillon explore a different direction going forward, but for the time being his distinctive style has legs.
