House, Mix | Klingande – Jubel & Musique Chic Mixtape

Posted by on September 16, 2013

It’s a very rare thing to experience an artist live for the first time and immediately and unexpectedly fall in love with them right then and there. When I got the chance to see the French duo Klingande, I went in with an open mind and ended up being totally mesmerized during the entire hour and a half long set. How these guys have gone under my radar for so long, I’m not sure, so I’m thrilled to be sharing them now. Their live set was by far one of the most energetic I’ve seen yet this year. Imagine: Big Gigantic meets Disclosure, with a twist of that upbeat nu-disco from the likes of Dimitri From Paris. It was the perfect medley of funky jams, house, and indie electronic, which sounds like a crazy combination of everything but I promise, these guys make it work. And you better believe there was a live sax player rockin’ out up there, too.

Their first track I’m sharing, titled “Jubel,” seems to be one of their most popular tracks around these parts. It’s a got a great, vivacious melody, delicate vocals and a super groovy appearance by the sax.

This second one is a summer mixtape they produced for the French music blog, Musique Chic, which gives a much better feel for what their live set was like. I’ve had this one of repeat for days now and would encourage you to take advantage of this free download as well.

Looks like these Frenchmen have yet to make their way to the states, so for now, keep posted on their social media for upcoming releases. Fantastique ^_^

Progressive House | Project 46 ft. Matthew Steeper – No One (Marcus Santoro Bootleg)

Just in time for the release of his second single on Neon Records, Marcus Santoro is back with another great bootleg that he is giving away for free. His previous bootleg of their early hit “Feel The Fire” was the first work I heard of his so it was of no surprise when I saw he remixed another track of theirs. In his typical fashion, he kept a portion of the original intact by retaining some of the original chords, but also added his own touch of large sounds and a nice bass during the drop to make it uniquely his.

Here’s a preview of his new single released today in collaboration with Apocalypto. Not really my thing, but maybe you’ll find a liking to it.

Chill, Indie, Progressive House | Ianick – Run Out of Steam + Color World

Ianick is a 20 year old producer from Norway and this is his big debut on FNT. He has been relatively quiet in terms of releases for quite some time now but he has made up for it with a slew of new tunes today. He is primarily a progressive house producer, but the two tracks that stood out to me were of the slower, atmospheric progressive type. “Run Out of Steam” is the extra that didn’t make it onto his Nostalgia EP and is free for you to enjoy. It is the more easy going track of the two I’ve chosen and was a nice surprise to come across. I had only heard of his commercial stuff before this, and it was good, but after listening to this it shows that he is capable of producing outside of that comfort zone.

“Color World” is actually a cut off his EP and therefore is not free. Sorry. I gave the EP a listen and this is my favorite song off of it so I figured it was worth sharing anyway. It is more upbeat and fun than the previous track, providing a nice contrast between two well executed styles.

BeatauCue - 'Aeropolis (Birdee Remix)We brought you the original plus the dubbed out remix from London dubstep duo, The Others a few weeks back, and now we have an exclusive download of another remix of “Aeropolis” from another Londoner, Birdee.

The remix is has a brooding quality to it, yet manages to be very upbeat, tipped with with disco and funk, using a classic soul growl to make it unmistakable that the disco touch has been placed upon it.

Trance | Tom Swoon ft Taylr Renee – Wings (Myon & Shane 54 Summer Of Love Mix)

Tom Swoon ft Taylr Renee - Wings (Myon & Shane 54 Summer Of Love Mix)There is a lot to love about summer. Free time (hopefully), warm weather, beaches, pool parties, sun dresses and general lack of clothing, cold beer, freedom and last, but certainly not least, Myon & Shane 54 Summer of Love remixes. Their summer-tipped remixes make them some of the hottest in demand artists this time of the year, with guys (and gals) like BT, Markus Schulz and Lana Del Rey all calling upon their talents. Tom Swoon and Ultra managed to swoon them as well (couldn’t help it), to take his good original and make it great, giving it serious replay value.

Robin Schulz dropped a bootleg remix of German artist Mr Probz’s track “Waves” 3 months ago and it’s so sensational I had to share! Mr Probz’ soulful voice makes this record,  and Schulz adds his touch by layering it with some sexy drums, some light guitar riffs and some piano chords to make it just perfect. If you’re looking to relax, and get some peace of mind, just press play, “Waves” has that summer sound to get you feeling right. Ya’ll know the drill, this is a must listen, and a must download!
