Electronic, Videos | Carte Blanche – Gare du Nord
Posted by yabishcic on November 25, 2013
Can we all just stop and take 2:48 to remember this amazingly ridiculous (because of the video) / actually-good (because of the music) song released back in 2010 by Ed Banger duo, DJ Mehdi and Riton, off their EP “Black Billionaires EP”. Even though the video features a super hyphy 80’s crowd getting down to some original electro, don’t let the retro get to you; this song is pretty epic. Taking you back in time, the beat is absolutely perfect. Gare du Nord (“North Station”) is one of the six large terminus stations of the SNCF mainline network for Paris. It offers connections with several urban transportation lines, including Paris Métro, RER and Buses. By the number of travelers, at around 190 million per year, it is the busiest railway station in Europe and outside Japan. I can only imagine people in Paris going beserk to this song in their world-renowned clubs… Like I said, epic.
Bass, Techno | moodblanc – Vous
Posted by admin on November 10, 2013
Tonight, Fresh New Tracks is providing you with something a little different than our usual musical offerings in an attempt to set your week off on the right foot. moodblanc is a Swedish, nu-disco duo with a sum-total of two songs in their SoundCloud catalog. Despite their non-expansive body of work, the two released songs are a treat for any pair of ears.
Be enchanted all the way to a terrace on the Hôtel de Paris, as “Vous” takes you on a continued journey through music…Each song that the group has released is a chapter in what appears to be a trilogy of work. “Vous” leaves the speaker/lover within the song in a vulnerable position, admitting that “it’s hard, impossible even, to be happy alone.”
Hopefully, the wait for Chapter Three won’t be too long, but in the meantime enjoy the soothing Daft-Punk-esk vocals and entrancing bassline.
Trap | MERCER – Supreme (PHAT DEUCE Remix)
Posted by VMan on October 13, 2013
The French producer, from Paris, Mercer releases 3 new remixes of his track “Supreme”, by PHAT DEUCE, Juyen Sebulba, and DJ D!rty Aud!o. The PHAT DEUCE remix is probably my favorite of the 3, though all of them are excellent. The synth progression in this record makes you feel like you’re going 90mph in the driver seat of a very expensive car, and once you make it to the drop you know you’ve made it to the party. This track is a must listen and a must download!

Electronic, Videos | Kaytranada – At All (Video)
Posted by mimada on October 2, 2013
I don’t know if y’all are onto this yet but Kaytranada is basically one of the coolest producers out there right now. I mean, over pretty much any big artists in the game, I’d wanna kick it with him. Not only does he come off trill af, but this guy is in a whole other playing field, struttin’ to the beat of his own 808. And his music video for “At All” that just dropped today is the perfect example. I don’t wanna spoil it for you but really, who can make hanging out with female body builders look like the sweetest thing in the world? Not many.
But we’re here for the music anyways, right? In an interview with Noisey, Kaytranada broke down his creative process for this track in particular:
“I was in Paris when I did that song and I just wanted to make a track because I had producer’s block when I was on tour and I couldn’t do any music. I had this long break when I was in Paris though so I decided to take this Chaka Khan song. It’s one of my favourites called “I Love You, I Live You” and I just did random stuff. I usually play with the pitch of the sample but this time I just messed with it. I thought I’d bring something new to the table because not a lot of producers play with their style like that. The drums are like what I usually do with other songs.”
You can purchase his much-anticipated EP via HW&W Recordings on October 16th, and catch him live on tour with Groundislava and Jerome LOL. Check here for dates. In the meantime you can get back to your workout, and don’t forget: friends don’t let friends skip leg day.

House | AlunaGeorge – You Know You Like It (Tchami Remix)
Posted by VMan on September 20, 2013
French producer from Paris, Tchami remixes AlunaGeorge’s “You Know You Like It” and does the track immense justice. Tchami calls his genre future house, and incorporates a lot of elements from Hip-Hop, Trap, and that UK Garage Sound. Not going to lie I’ve had AlunaGeorge’s album in the CD player ever since I saw them live at the Bowery in NYC, and I’m glad talented producers are giving them the proper treatment! This is a must listen and a must download!

Hip-Hop, Rap | Caskey – Show Me Some (Prod. Myles William)
Posted by VMan on August 22, 2013
The YMCMB protege Caskey has been on my radar for a minute ever since I heard his track “Words” around this time last year, and he’s still grinding. His producer Myles William sent over “Show Me Some” last night and I fux with it heavy. Caskey jetted to Paris, France to shoot this video, and he isn’t stunting, he’s keeping it real. It appears when one of the biggest label in the game signs you, those who hated, or weren’t paying attention, start showing love. Ironic how that works? Either way this record is a must listen, and a must download, and look out for his mixtape The Transient Classics out August 28th!

Trap | Kanye West – New Slaves (DJ Snake Remix)
Posted by Spice on July 11, 2013
Say what you will about Yeezus, and say what you will about trap — ain’t nobody gonna argue with how swaggy this song is. What else would you expect from one of the “Bird Machine” masterminds? No doubt about it – Paris is burning right now.
