Posted by yabishcic on February 10, 2014
So we’re all aware of how hard What So Not has been killing it as of lately but this remix of SBTRKT’s “Pharaohs” is simply genius. Taking the already amazing song and turning it on it’s electro side is more than enough to take a liking to this beat… Just perfect.

Melbourne Bounce | The Chainsmokers – #SELFIE
Posted by Mel on January 29, 2014
At long last, the first original label release by The Chainsmokers is finally out. What started as a joke for one of their shows in December, eventually became what it is now. “#Selfie” is a melbourne bounce track that is very unique because it features a girl talking about stuff, stupid stuff. It’s hilarious. Only kind of though but it is clear who this song was made for, and that would be middle aged urban males. Or young white girls. The song is quite the departure from their typical style and even though it is a little gimmicky, it’s also an entertaining song with a pretty good drop. As you can probably guess, the music video consists of a whole lot of fan submitted selfies as well as the girl narrating as she gets ready or something. The girl actually looks exactly like I imagined she would from her voice, perfect. Just kidding she’s alright (8?/10). If you care enough to do so, I’m sure they would appreciate you purchasing the track on iTunes.

Deep House | London Grammar – Hey Now (Bodhi Remix)

In the ancient Sanskrit language the word Bodhi means awakened, which happens to be a perfect description for what the duo of the same name has done to this London Grammar tune. In it’s original form ‘Hey Now’ was a lax ambient joint with etherial vocals over a droning back drop, but Bodhi snapped and flipped it into a gorgeous dance floor banger with deep bass grooves and a house swing. If you’re patient and listen as the track lulls midway, it will culminate and liberate all inhibitions you may have had about dancing alone in your room.
Electronic, Trap | Usher – U Don’t Have To Call (Hex Cougar Edit)
Posted by mimada on January 20, 2014
Wow, I don’t even know how to introduce this song eloquently other than DAMN! But lemme introduce Hex Cougar first – an LA based producer part of Neo Fresco’s label, Shifty Rhythms, whose interests include “stalking & killing prey, hiding in shadows, running real fast, scaring children, & Mexican food.” But it gets better. This remix is a perfect blend of chill, trap, and Jersey Voicemail club. But here’s the best part of all – it’s a free download! So pounce on this piece of meat pronto.
Trance | ilan Bluestone – Spheres
Posted by Middy on January 19, 2014
ilan Bluestone started 2013 with “Sinai“, and this year he kicks things off with another bomb, the aptly named “Spheres”. It has the vintage ilan Bluestone sound that brings together a hard, driving bass line with well-crafted, soothing melodies that are perfect for Anjunabeats. Mr Bluestone had a breakout 2013, living up to the billing of just about every blog’s artist to watch last year, lets see what he can do in 2014 and “Spheres” is a great way to start.

If you haven’t already, meet Funkystepz, a UK-based bass//garage//house//whatever-tickles-your-fancy producing collective. I’m still playing catch up from my holiday hiatus but their latest release, Loveshy EP, is not to be overlooked.
