Electronic, Videos | Carte Blanche – Gare du Nord

Posted by 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.

Progressive House | Strange Talk – Picking Up All The Pieces (Marcus Santoro Remix) + Djuro & Marcus Santoro – Heroes (Original Mix)

Everyone knows that the amount of plain black or white v-necks an artist owns is a direct correlation to their production prowess, which is why it makes perfect sense that Marcus Santoro practically lives in v-necks. He has somehow managed to hold himself back from taking pictures of his dog and laptop screen long enough to release a couple of tracks for free. The first one being his remix of Strange Talk’s “Picking Up All The Pieces” that he completed some time ago but because of complications with labels and, of course, Avicii, it is just now seeing the light of day as a free download. The second is a new original done in collaboration with fellow Australian producer Djuro.

iTunes: Max Elto – Backyard Animals

Saw this video on Facebook, and I’m liking the song a lot. The track is called “Backyard Animals” by Swedish duo Max Elto. The best way to describe their sound is indie-electro, a perfect blend of indie rock and electro. The duo just signed to Big Beat at Atlantic Records, and at the sound of things I’m expecting a bright future for these two! This is a must listen and a must watch!

DO SOMETHING

Electro, House | Izzy Bizu – White Tiger (Star Slinger Remix)

Posted by on November 19, 2013

This is a light track, something I would suggest playing if you’re in one of those moods where you just happened to wake up on the most perfect side of the bed and everything from that moment has just been good. This song is the cherry on top of your good ass day and Star Slinger always knows how to put a upbeat spin on any song he gets his hands on…

Alternative, Electro | Generationals – Put A Light On (Teen Daze Remix)

Posted by on November 19, 2013

Ok, this is just perfect. I covered the original version of this song about a month or two back and honestly, I don’t know how much attention the song has actually got since its release because I love the song too much too care. But Teen Daze hit this one right on the head. The remix is clutch, spot on, however you wanna put it – I dig it. If you’re a fan of the original Generationals tune then you don’t want to miss this impeccable remix.

“Yo Mel! I know you don’t have many friends and still don’t have a girlfriend  and also stay home most of the time so I’ve got the perfect site for you, edm-date.com”. That’s (roughly) what Middy said to me a week ago and I was admittedly intrigued. The thought of meeting a girl who loves Avicii, Zedd, Calvin Harris, Alesso, and that one Swedish House Mafia song as much I really got me going! Could I even find a girl like that at school?  Not a chance! I was stirring at the opportunity to sign up and finally get a gf at last! I figured it would be a bit of work though and I was already pretty tired, just had a piece of cheesecake ya know (super filling), so I took a nap. I woke up in a different state of mind however. Do I really want to look for love online? I don’t know, that’s what losers do… What about if things go well so we decide to meet up somewhere and it turns out we actually have a great time. We laugh and tell stories, spend the night telling each other about our childhood and what not. I then pay for dinner, drive her home, and she lies in bed thinking about me. I, on the other hand, lie in bed and cry because she has Megan Fox thumbs and a slightly askew left eyebrow so I have no other choice but to never talk to her again. There were many similar questions buzzing around in my head so I was unsure as to whether or not I wanted to go through with it. A sticky stomach and a shameful shower later, it was time to get to work.

 

So… I did it. I signed up and attempted to get a date. Does this EDM exclusive dating site actually provide people with a chance to find love with likeminded individuals or was it all a waste of time? Read on to find out.

Hip-Hop, Rap | Ace Cosgrove – Long Kiss of Death (ft. Uno Hype)

The DMV is next up. We’ve seen cities emerge this past year and show off their stars, but really and truly, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia is blossoming with so much talent that it is becoming impossible to ignore. At the forefront of the movement is the Hostile Youth clan.

Today I bring to you an offering from two of the Hostile Youth members, Ace Cosgrove and Uno Hype. The duo delivers a eerie track with a hint of jazz, perfect for your post-halloween festivities. The song clocks in at only 2 minutes, meaning there will hopefully be plenty more collaboration in the near future.
