Deep House | Karin Park – Shine (L’amore Summer Remode)
Posted by Mel on May 18, 2014
On a special day in early July of last year, I felt like going swimming. I also felt like making my mouth taste terrible however, so I decided to go swimming in the Pacific Ocean. I am unsure if it was the large quantity of seawater that orally penetrated me (I’m not a girl btw), or that margarita I had not long afterwards, but somehow I got sick. I had a light cough and so there was just no way I was capable of making a post. A few weeks passed and on August 1st of last year, I returned from my multi-week hiatus with a post of Jeter’s remix of Coldplay’s “Clocks”. A remix for “Clocks”, or really any Coldplay song is a rare thing but Jeter delivered a great progressive house remix of Coldplay. Something done only by literally a lot of people.
After some time, George Greenwood also started producing under the name L’amore. He switched from his uptempo progressive house style to a calmer, deep house and house style. He has a few releases on his Soundcloud and they’re all good, but when he uploaded a minute long preview of his remix for the vocalist on Axwell’s latest track, Karin Park, I immediately messaged him asking when he would release it. He expedited the release and now his remode of Karin Park’s “Shine” is available for all. L’amore’s abilities as a producer are superb, with his exceptionally high production quality being especially impressive. He has a knowledge of music that many of his peers cannot match. If you enjoy the song below, check out his Soundcloud because you’ll probably enjoy his others.

Progressive House | Snow Patrol – Open Your Eyes (Karboncopy’s Festival Bootleg)
Posted by Mel on May 15, 2014
My affinity for Australian producers runs deep and wide with Marcus Santoro, probably the only Australian producer I consistently post. That is not to say that he is my favorite however, although he most definitely is, but the Adelaidean duo Karboncopy are also a pair of guys I am always keeping an eye on. In early 2012, roughly two years and 69 days ago to be exact, they released a remix of Rihanna’s “You Da One”. I was young and stupid at the time – nothing has really changed I suppose – but for some reason that song struck a chord with me. That song, along with the Swedish House Mafia remix of “Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall”, are the two songs that made me fall in love with the genre.
Not really sure why I shared that with you guys. Probably cause I’m lonely. Onto the important stuff though! Karboncopy’s official remix for “Collide” was a hit and, in my opinion, better than the original. After a string of official releases, they have returned back to their free, track giving away days in the form of a remix to Snow Patrol’s “Open Your Eyes”. The quality of their productions has come a long way since their first remix and they are only getting better with each release.

Electronic, Progressive House | Porter Robinson – Sad Machine
Posted by Mel on May 13, 2014
“Sad Machine”, Porter Robinson’s follow up to “Sea Of Voices” is even grander than his previous release and maybe even the Skrillex remix of “Levels”. The song is absolute gold and will provide you with yet another reason as to why you should be excited for his upcoming album. Pre-order his album “Worlds”, set for release August 12th here.

Hip-Hop, RnB | Pharrell – Happy (Kaytranada Edition)
Posted by yabishcic on May 12, 2014
Kaytranada has taken huge steps in the music industry as of recently so it’s not that surprising that he’s taking another step into that of Pharrell Williams. For Pharrell already being his own powerhouse, Kay did a excellent job of fitting his shoes. This Eiditon of “Happy” is very Kaytranada but still holds all the essences of the original song.
Bootleg, Electro | Cashmere Cats – Wedding Bells (Lazerdisk Bootleg)
Posted by dshaq on May 2, 2014
Pretty much any song with artwork like is destined for greatness. Just as good as its artwork is the song, featuring a refreshing twist on Cashmere Cat’s beautiful ballad, Wedding Bells. From start to finish, the song engages your ears incorporating different synths, chords, and even a steel drum, and who doesn’t love a steel drum? Here’s what the men of lazerdisk had to say about the track:
Definitely a must listen, so peep it below and get your groove on. Enjoy!
Hip-Hop, Rap | GoldLink – Ay Ay (Video)
Posted by admin on April 30, 2014
After the successful release of his genre-bending project, The God Complex, GoldLink has debuted the first video for the song “Ay Ay”. Classified as a “future-bounce stripper anthem,” the video combines some serious booty-shaking with a mini-plot line. The video was directed by Nathan R. Smith, and is the second strong visual release from him and GoldLink in the past month.
Check out the video above, and be sure to grab The God Complex here, if you haven’t already.
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.
