Hip-Hop | Sean Leon – September 7th
Posted by BIGLIFE on September 9, 2014
Sean Leon, probably the next big thing out of the TO, has done it again with his smooth flow and flawless production. The production uses beautiful piano and is a perfect release until Sean Leon puts out his next project. I hope this holds you over, cause I really hope there are more like this in the future.
Progressive House | Calvin Harris feat. John Newman – Blame
Posted by BIGLIFE on September 5, 2014
I love Calvin Harris. Not in your college-aged sorority chick that listens to nothing but progressive house and goes to Coachella wearing an Indian headdress and flash tattoos way. I actually like him because I think his production is a cut above. Sure Hardwell is the number one DJ, but Harris has achieved cross over status. This new release from Harris though? It’s not getting the job done. The writing is great. The vocals are great. The drop is..uneventful. John Newman is brilliant as always, but Calvin really missed the boat on this one. This had the potential to become a mega-smash solidifying his summer reign. In the grand scheme of things, this review won’t hurt “Blame’s” performance one bit. We don’t intend it to. Regardless, we have to call it like we see it. Calvin Harris’ new “Blame” single out now on Sony (UK) is a dud of a track.

Abstract Hip-Hop | Flying Lotus – Never Catch Me (Feat. Kendrick Lamar)
Posted by dshaq on September 3, 2014
Woah. Not expecting that. It has been a minute since Kendrick has graced our ears with new music, and today’s release is something a little different. Having FlyLo on the production is something I find very fitting for the two, who both have unique sounds that clearly work pretty well together on this track. I believe there is a new album in the works and set to be coming out pretty soon. Look for that and more releases to come and enjoy the track below.
Electronic | No Limits – Purple Skies

No Limits are awesome. They have such a refreshing style and consistently put out quality stuff. Their latest is a dreamy piece of electronic music that becomes extremely catchy. Everything from the atmosphere, to the production, to the vocals are all top notch. These guys are going to be big soon.

Progressive House | Denzal Park feat. Jon Hume – One Way Home (Marcus Santoro Remix)
Posted by Mel on July 19, 2014
In appreciation of the support he has gotten on his recent single, “You & I”, Marcus Santoro, my fourth best friend even though we’ve never actually met, has remixed Denzal Park’s “One Way Home” and is giving it away for free. You can expect either a harder, gritty track or a melodic one when it comes to Marcus’ releases and for this one he went the melodic route. Like always, the track is well crafted and has extremely high production quality.

Drum & Bass | Sigma ft Paloma Faith – Changing (Official Video)

iTunes: Sigma ft Paloma Faith – Changing (Official Video)
Facebook | SoundCloud | Twitter
British drum n bass production duo Sigma, who made headlines with their”Nobody To Love” single, is back with a jam “Changing” featuring vocals by the talented Paloma Faith, and it’s without a doubt going to be a huge Summer hit. Paloma’s soulful jazzy gospel vocals blend perfectly with Sigma’s drum n bass production, reminiscent if Adele decided to go drum n’ bass, and I wouldn’t be mad at her. The energy on this track is raw, and refreshing, I’m 100% sold! This is a must listen!
Ambient, Chill, RnB | The GTW – Calling Cards
Posted by admin on July 16, 2014
Genres are dumb. Especially when it comes to a talent such as The GTW. Nigerian-born, and Chicago-bred, The GTW pulls influences from enumerable locations in to his music. A voice tender enough to put you to sleep, yet intriguing enough to keep you begging for, more fills the pockets of the contemporary production it’s put on top of.
The African-elements to the music are evident, each different addition to the soundscape warm and comforting. I could ramble endlessly trying to decipher what The GTW’s sound is exactly, but it’s probably best for you to take a look at the video above.
