Summer is gearing up to having a big radio hit on its hands with Katy Tiz’s latest release “The Big Bang,” and the original version is cool and all, but this progressive house remix by Katy Tisz just makes me think of late nights in the club, lasers shooting everywhere, epic synths, ladies moving sexily, the whole package! They say progressive house is dead, but I don’t believe it, how can you go wrong with melody and feels? This remix is too dope. This is a must listen and a must download!

Events | Electric Zoo Announces Phase 2 Lineup
Posted by Middy on May 28, 2014
Phase 1 brought headliners like Kaskade, Alesso, Armin van Buuren, Sasha and Jack U to Randall’s Island over Labor Day weekend, but now Phase 2 adds another 60 names to the mix to help fill out the increasingly stacked lineup for Electric Zoo this year. It has been well-documented the increased security measures that E Zoo will have this year, shortening the festival by two hours and adding a lot more on site law enforcement and medical personnel among others. Hopefully though, we will be able to focus on the music and not on all of the headline grabbing things that have beleaguered electronic music this time around, so be smart and read on for the lineup additions which includes names like Jamie XX, Ame, Audien, What So Not and many more. Go on grab tickets, including single day passes if you fancy one day more then the rest.

I have a feeling you’re going to be hearing this remix/track a lot this Summer, it’s infectious, and it’s made for radio! Mack & Jetset Vega recently remixed Fitz and the Tantrum’s “The Walker” into a fun catchy electro-pop record that is due out May 27th under Atlantic Records. This may be your first listen by Mack, though you’ve surely heard one of his mixes on the air, having been a resident DJ for many years down in Miami, and Philadelphia, and recently he joined Hollywood Hamilton at The Remix Top 30 in NYC, the second biggest syndicated radio show, as their resident DJ, so you’re going to want to pay attention! This is a must listen!
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.

DJ-Set | Kap Slap – SnowGlobe 2013 Set
Posted by Juicebox on January 8, 2014
SnowGlobe was one for the books, there is no doubt about that. As expected, Tiesto crushed the first night, Kaskade did his thing the second, and Cut Copy brought in the New Year with a vibrant live set. What was unexpected was what happened when Kap Slap took the stage. His set was on the second stage, earlier in the night (5:15 PM), and was competing with the legendary hip hop group Zion I on the main stage. Regardless of the circumstances, come 5:45 PM, the Sierra tent was at capacity with every festival goer dancing their hearts out. Kap Slap kept the entire tent jumping, dancing, & singing for an entire hour and fifteen minutes. The highlight of his set was when he debuted his first original production which left the crowd with their hands in the air and ears asking for more. The transitions were flawless, his stage energy was unmatched, and he closed out his performance with one of his signature stage dives. Relive SnowGlobe 2013 with this heart racing heavy hitting hour and fifteen mix.
