As we edge towards the middle of Summer, we can easily look back and reminisce on The Wild memories we have made so far. Along with the wild memories, we all need some Indie tracks to listen to on the road, to take in the warm weather, hometown memories, and look forward to what is ahead in the fall. Go ahead and make a memory by jumping in the car, throw on Little Wanders latest track, “The Wild”, and take a joy ride. This is one you do not want to miss.

Hip-Hop, Mixtapes, Rap | Bobby Capri – Lemonade (Mixtape)
Posted by admin on September 12, 2014
Fueling my addiction for Virginia-based rap music is the new comer Bobby Capri. Although this project wasn’t even supposed to come out, I’m sure glad it did. There is an essence of old-school paired with contemporary rhyming to make for a very enjoyable project.
Virginia’s music scene is bubbling to say the least, so it will be exciting to see where Capri ends up within it all.
Electronic, RnB | Snakehips – After I Met U
Posted by mimada on July 31, 2014
As I write this, I’ve only listened one time to this brilliant new track from UK heartthrobs, Snakehips, and my fingertips are tingling with excitement. I even just caught myself casually grinning. Preface: summer vibes to the max (because rainbow pastel is the new black, right?). “After I Met U” radiates the Snakehips’ signature style of combining sultry R&B vocals and feelings with an upbeat and addicting retro electronic backing. A style we’ve seen most recently in their kaleidoscopic single “Days With You” featuring songstress Sinead Harnett. This track, which was pulled from Snakehips’s live sets in response to the high demand from fans, showcases Cheri Dennis in a much more exhilarating manner than the original. And to top off what was already another casually perfect song from the cat-loving producing duo, the switch up and throwback at the 2:15 mark will knock you out of your chair. And suddenly I’m feeling compelled to whip out some of ol’ Jenny’s moves…

Chill, Electronic, Mix | Zimmer – Méditerranée | July Tape
Posted by mimada on July 28, 2014
After discovering his remix of MØ’s infectious “Don’t Wanna Dance” and consequently being BLOWN AWAY by it, it’s safe to say I was hooked on the Parisian producer, Zimmer. In addition to his collection of both remixes and originals, the self-proclaimed “horizontal disco and feel good house” artist keeps his 45k Soundcloud fans (and growing) at bay by releasing free monthly mixtapes, like any good artist should. This month’s mixtape, as you might have guessed from the title, has a Mediterranean theme to it, which not only means the selected songs transport you right to the white sandy beaches of Croatia or the Greek Isles, but each track has it’s own connection to the southern European region. Press play and take a trip to paradise without having to leave your room ^_^ Tracklist after the break!

Chill, Hip-Hop | Radical Something – Cali Get Down
Posted by admin on July 28, 2014
It seems as if the Cali-bred band, Radical Something hits their stride every summer with the release of new music. In the peak of these hot, beautiful days, Rad So decided to drop off “Cali Get Down”. The song is a funky, pop record that they’ve been performing at shows for some time now. After the wild response it received from fans, it was only right to unleash the full mp3 to put in to rotation on your summer playlist.
2014 has already been great for the band, having toured across the country with Logic and Krewella partying it up on over twenty-five college campuses. Now, with Fall on the horizon, Loggy, Josh, and Red have just announced they’ll be back on the road with Matisyahu for over 50 more dates!
Enjoy the song, and be sure to catch Radical Something on the road.
Chill, Compilation, Mix | WhitneyAbstraKt – A Night With Leyla
Posted by admin on July 5, 2014
Curation is key. It is this fact alone that has allowed music streaming services such as Songza and Beats to be purchased for millions and millions of dollars this past year. And, it is this fact that keeps talented curators in the front of our minds and ears.
In the wake of endless singles, one-off radio hits, and all-around clutter in music it is nice to know that there are those out there that will spend tireless hours of their own time to bring a collection of the best music to your ears. Today, this glorious mix of tunes is brought to us by WhitneyAbstraKt in conjunction with Artistic Manifesto.
The mix is self-described as follows: “It’s a mild spring evening, the wind is gently blowing through her hair, and you’re out enjoying a night on the town. You have one thing in mind, but the night carries you in an entirely different direction. Before you know it, dawn has arrived and you realize that the entire night has been one hazy, disorienting, pleasurable blur. You just experienced “A Night With Leyla.” This is your soundtrack.”
Enjoy the eclectic musical stylings, and have a great Saturday night to accompany it.
