One thing’s for certain with these past releases, Electric Bodega wants you to shake your ass, and properly titled “Body Mova,” this beat will get you moving. I wasn’t  sure what genre this is so I called it reggae trap with original reggae vocals from Dr. Blum, and I can bet that this record is going to be getting a lot love from the DJs in the clubs. I can already see it: butts, on butts on butts. Two thumbs up, this is a must listen and cop that free download!

The duo that makes up Academy is back with another chill laid back record called “Catch My Vibe.” Though in my opinion not as catchy as their latest release “Fine By Me”  , they stay true to their vibe with a groovy guitar line, and a reggae flow on the vocals that could be compared to Sublime. This is track 2 from the guys, and I’m still impressed, keep it up! This is a must listen, and a must download!

I’ve been listening to  “Fine By Me” by the Academy for a few days, and the truth is it’s a great record. It has a reggae flavor and a dose of retro-funk, I’m feeling it. In my opinion, this hook is a hit, so damn catchy, just a cool vibe. The band is a duo Evan and Eli from Rhode Island whom are currently residing in Los Angeles, and Boston. Hopefully they put out some new tracks some time soon, it’s a great sound! Must listen and must download!

Sia-–-Elastic-Heart-Ft.-The-Weeknd-Diplo

Straight off the Hunger Games: Catching Fire soundtrack, “Elastic Heart” by Sia featuring The Weeknd and Diplo. This track is super dope, what a great collaboration! Diplo delivers with his reggae infused production, and Sia and The Weeknd do their thing on it! From the looks of it the whole Hunger Games: Catching Fire soundtrack is going to be jam packed with tracks by Christina Aguilera, Coldplay, Lorde, Santigold, Of Monsters and Men, Lumineers and more! This one is a must listen!

Electro-House | Showtek Feat We Are Loud! & Sonny Wilson – Booyah

Posted by on August 21, 2013

Showtek Feat We Are Loud! & Sonny Wilson - BooyahShowtek are just phenomenal. People think they have just come from nowhere in this electro house game. Well first they were a part of Boys Will Be Boys with Tiesto & Anger Dimmas, and then took on the producing role for Tiesto, which they may or may not have relinquished. Now they are cranking out some of biggest tracks today, and “Booyah” is just the latest. Infusing reggae, rock and dnb into one electro house track, Showtek show once again why they are one step ahead of just about everyone else.

Electro-House, Preview | Showtek Feat. We Are Loud! & Sonny Wilson – Booyah (Preview)

Posted by on July 13, 2013

Showtek
Hardstyle ambassadors to the electro scene and the creators of some of the biggest tracks in the recent couple years (including some or many of Tiesto’s), Showtek preview their latest output alongside We Are Loud and Sonny Wilson on vocals. This reggae infused track combines the hard-hitting electro-style (electro house and hardstyle, I may have just been made up right now) sound they have crafted for themselves in the past few years that others have rushed to try and copy, with both some rock and reggae elements in the instrumental and vocals that really give the track its character. As usual, you can expect a well-produced track and something that could creep its way into sets this summer as a change of pace from many of the generic minimal drops being produced now. Release is coming August 19th on Spinnin, so you will have to wait over a month for this.

Chill, Hip-Hop | Radical Something – Cheap Drink

cheap drink radical seomthing

As it has probably become apparent the California-trio, Radical Something, is a favorite of mine. It’s been a while since we’ve had any new beach-y material, however, back like they never left RadSo unleashed, “Cheap Drink”. Josh Cocktail croons on the hook, highlighting a problem that I’m sure many of you have struggled with in the hot and expensive summer bar scene, followed by two verses from Loggy and an electro-reggae laced instrumental produced by Big Red.

The guys have been on a roll this summer, seeming to thrive in their natural sunny element. Since Radical Something is taking a break from touring for the majority of the hot and steamy months, I’m sure you’ll be seeing plenty more new music from them very soon.

If you enjoy the song, I’d recommend supporting Radical Something on iTunes here, otherwise scoop the free download above and vibe out!
