Mix | Fly Into The Sky With Gryffin’s Flight Log 001 Mix
Posted by Tay on August 13, 2015
Mark my words, Gryffin has all the makings of the next big superstar in dance music. His music is not only perfect for the summertime, with its soaring melodies, electro-tinged basslines, and uplifting vocals, but it has some serious crossover potential. The NYC-based producer unveiled his remix of Years & Years’ “Desire” a few weeks ago, which just so happens to be the lead single off of the highly-anticipated EDM movie, We Are Your Friends, and now, the emerging star has delivered the very first episode of his brand new mix series, Flight Log. The first episode of the mix really takes off from the start, as he expertly navigates the skies through hand-selected cuts by the likes of EDX, Rudimental, and filous. Peep it above, download it below, and get ready to soar into the sky with Gryffin.

House | Calvin Harris feat. John Newman – Blame (Mike Williams Future Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on October 18, 2014
I love Oliver Heldens weekly “Heldeep” radio series. The guy is always introducing me to new tunes that I may have missed throughout the week. I’m not a big “Blame” fan but I love what Mike Williams has done here. Very Oliver Heldens like. You can’t blame these up and comers. Everyone wants to re-produce that sound. In the words of every stereotypical DJ, I give this track the top support treatment. Cheers!

Tchami dog coming in hot. He called it earlier this week, and he delivered. The enigmatic Parisian drops the first installment of his “Confessions” mix series. You know why Tchami wears a priest outfit to every single show he plays? Because future house is the new religion. This mix is spiritual.
Chill, Hip-Hop | Chet Faker x GoldLink – On You
Posted by mimada on July 15, 2014
GoldLink is currently one of those artists that I just cannot get enough of – and fortunately for me he just keeps releasing one gem after another. The unlikely yet surprisingly compatible pairing of the rising hip hop star and ubiquitous Australian vocalist Chet Faker definitely delivers, with a beautiful, catchy chorus courtesy of Faker and some honest rhymes by GoldLink, wrapped up with some soulful keyboarding, perfect for those lazy Sunday mornings having breakfast in bed (“breakfast”) with your main squeeze.
Be sure to check out the making of “On You,” part of the series Songs From Scratch brought to you by adidias and Yours Truly below.

Progressive House | Danzfolk – Osiris
Posted by Middy on May 13, 2014
I have been telling you all about these guys and slowly people are starting to listen, but not like they should be. Their productions are polished beyond their years and only get better each time. This is the third and final tune in their “MYTHOS” trilogy, that took us from the high seas, to the shores of Crête to now the underworld of Egyptian mythology. As they explain,
“Osiris’ was the god of the dead, and ruler of the underworld. Throughout the height of Egyptian civilization, Osiris was the primary deity. In power, he was second to only his father, Ra, and was the leader of the gods on earth. Osiris resided in the underworld as the lord of the dead, as after being killed by Set, even though he was a god, he could no longer dwell in the land of the living. After Osiris was killed, Isis resurrected him with the Ritual of Life, which was later given to the Egyptians so that they could give eternal life to all their dead. The spells and rituals cast by Isis, plus many others given to the people by the gods over the centuries, were collected into The Book of the Dead. In the underworld, Osiris sits on a great throne, where he is praised by the souls of the just.
The tune has a strong Middle Eastern flavor to it with a strong, bouncy and bodacious bass line and a well-crafted melody. All three tunes in the series are must downloads and this is the cherry on top.

Progressive House | Trilane – Tomorrowism
Posted by Mel on April 29, 2014
When I first came across this song on Soundcloud I was a little surprised because I didn’t know who Trilane was or why I was following him. That mystery was soon put to rest however when I remembered that I heard a song of theirs before and liked it so I followed him. Trilane is actually not a him, it is a series of hims. They are a trio of progressive house producers based out of Sweden. “Tomorrowism” is their latest release and I can’t get enough of it. There are no vocals, the song is just pure blissful chords coupled with high energy drops and well crafted melodies.
