Hip-Hop | Jazz Cartier – Ataraxia (Prod. by Lantz)
Posted by A on June 26, 2012
“My bars cause accidents watch as I damage shit.”
My posts, although few and far between, are synonymous with flowery prose used to describe the music at hand. I’m going to save you the long-drawn-out-paragraph and tell you that it would be a mistake to pass on this track from Jazz’s forthcoming “Marauding In Paradise” project. Video directed and shot by Ross Lai and Ashton Lewis.

Dubstep, Electro | Popeska
Posted by Spice on February 7, 2012
We’ve featured this talented up-and-comer here before, but it’s time to devote an entire post to him because let’s face it: the kid is good. Popeska is a 19 year-old producer from ATL and has a real knack for putting out tracks that are are both heavy and melodic. What more can you ask for?
“Super Best Friends” features an insanely catchy hook that slams right into a heavy, glitchy drop. Advance warning, if I see your face on the ground at any point during this song I’m just going to kick it to the side.

“Electricks Theme” is another wobbly banger; don’t be deceived by the chill beginning, as it picks up steam with the addition of some serious percussion and driving synths. Like many of Popeska’s songs, it also features a varied and interesting melody, which further demonstrates that this kid really knows his stuff.

This next song is a total 180 from the previous two. Quite honestly, it caught me totally caught off guard the first time I listened — the intensity and raw emotion of the vocals (which come in glitchy, a cappella waves that will give you chills) hit me very hard. “I Wish” is probably one of the most unique and powerful songs I’ve heard in a while; the only thing I can think of that’s at all similar is “Hide and Seek” by Imogen Heap…and that’s obviously serious business.

I highly, highly recommend that you download “I Wish,” but since it’s not exactly the kind of thing you’ll want to blast in the car on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, you should check out the retooled version Popeska threw together as well. This VIP chops the vocals and adds a synth-heavy, melody-driven background that’s substantially more upbeat than the original but maintains just enough heavy intensity.

And in case you missed it the first time around….be sure to download “We Can Dance,” Popeska’s awesome moombahcore banger.

Electro | Inna – Sun is UP (by Play&Win)
Posted by BIGLIFE on September 10, 2011
The summer weather might be coming to an end but that doesn’t mean we can’t hold onto the vibe for dear life. If you’re like me and have seasonal depression, throw this Inna track on deck – it always brings me back. I’ve dug this one up from the graveyard as I figure many of you haven’t heard it yet. For good measure I’ve thrown in a solid remix that I’ve never posted before. Enjoy…

Hip-Hop | Deon Chase – For The Chase
Posted by BIGLIFE on September 6, 2011
Deon Chase aka the 16 year old Hip Hop artist we presented last week, sent over his latest track entitled “For The Chase” which features a bass thumping big boy beat that he handles quite well. I’m still bullish about this young gun – I encourage you to sound off in the comments section with your opinion.

Posted by BIGLIFE on July 6, 2011
Is every genre being electrofied these days? If so I won’t be complaining. This Mr. Vegas and Wynter Gordon collaboration pulls the best from both worlds; one serving of reggae/soca vocals, one serving of electro, and a sprinkle of that Wynter Gordon goodness. If you’re looking for a hot summer song that’s switches things up a bit, tune in below.
