Albums | French Duo, My Dear, present a perfect song for the Summertime
Posted by dshaq on June 14, 2017
Out from retirement comes Dshaq. Today we have a fantastic offering from the French duo, My Dear. Very reminiscent of heavy 80s synthesizer music, A Day With You breaks their previous tracks’ molds and gives us a beautiful Nu-Disco track for the upcoming Summer months. A simple guitar riff leads the way during this one, with a powerful chorus to match. My Dear only has a couple tracks listed on their Soundcloud, but I would highly recommend checking out their other stuff – especially “Standing in This Dream”. Enjoy!
Electronic | Midnight Pool Party – Linger
Posted by mimada on April 16, 2014
Well folks, it’s the middle of April which means it took me an entire four months to find a new artist to start obsessing over (2014, get your shit together!). But it seems my hunting has come to a end, well temporarily, of course, as I would like to introduce you all to Midnight Pool Party. This band comes from where else other than the down under: Sydney, to be exact. Their style is summarized by a contagious, feel good, retro disco sound, or better put in their own words, a “potent cocktail of funky guitar licks, infectious keys and swoonsome choruses.” Their latest single, “Linger” and all its remixes (especially Luke Million’s) is a great starting place to fall in love with these party people, and once you’re ready for more, you can catch up with me over on their Miami Horror “Real Slow” remix as I’ve had it on repeat for about a week now. They’ve got their tracks available for free download so you can cop them, play them for your friends, and all dance until you drop.

Electro | Logic feat. Jhene Aiko – Break It Down (Louis Futon Remix)
Posted by mimada on April 16, 2014
Philly duo Louis Futon may be still be arguably “new” to the scene, but their discography and social media following proves these boys mean business. They’ve got heaps of original releases in addition to a handful of remixes, each one varying a little bit in genre from the next. This delightful remix of Logic and Jhene Aiko’s “Break It Down” is, as the say, perfect for those summertime vibes. I hate to spoil this track by pointing out its similarities to Kaytranada’s style, so just think of it as Louis Futon’s own spin on that groovy feel.
On that note, you may have heard Louis Futon on Ta-Ku’s latest “Drive Slow, Homie, Part III,” in which case you should make note that track will be featured on their upcoming EP, still TBA. In the mean time, snatch this free download and toss it on your poolside playlist stat.

Chill, Hip-Hop | Nelly – Ride Wit Me (Viceroy “Jet Life” Remix)
Posted by Grubeats on April 7, 2014
This is precisely why us East-coasters love Viceroy. While you spoiled Californian’s, Texan’s, Floridians, and any other Southern-ians have warm weather all year round, us New Englander’s are hitting the beach the minute it hits 60 degrees in April. The king of “Summertime All The Time” hits us with a filthy remix of vintage Nelly – Ride Wit Me. If you’re looking for windows down music, regardless of the temperature outside, look no further.

Bass, Deep House | NVOY – Don’t Ever
Posted by mimada on March 30, 2014
With the arrival of springtime and summer a moment away on the horizon, it seemed inevitable that the UK house duo NVOY would provide us with something to cater to those vibes. While their previous releases have all been deep, club-appropriate bangers, this track is a much airier one that I envision myself hearing at some chic, rooftop, poolside day party in the upcoming months, full of trendy socialites with good taste in music and bottomless Aperol Spritz. But I mean, even if I still don’t get an invite to the party, I’m confident in the growing hype of NVOY, this track will still be spinning. Hold your breath for their first official release here soon!

Progressive House | Eric Prydz – Liberate
Posted by Mel on March 21, 2014
Everybody knows that Eric Prydz is awesome and almost every track of his is amazing. Typically, he releases his progressive house songs under the Pryda moniker. His real name is reserved for only the best of the best and this is one of them. My good pal and long time lover Middy has already given you the summertime metaphor when he posted the preview a while back so you should know what the song entails by now. Summertime, pretty much. This is progressive house at its finest.

Hip-Hop | Sikai – Still On D.R.U.G.S. (Prod By Bobby Music)
Posted by VMan on January 30, 2014
A few months back Sikai hit me up with his mixtape Painkilling: Summertime Sick, and after doing a quick skim of the project, the track “Still On D.R.U.G.S” stood out the most to me, from the production to the lyrical content and overall delivery, I had to share it with ya’ll. Fast forward a few months, and Sikai and his team just released must watch visuals for the record., which take you through the different emotions and psychological states that come from constant drug abuse. This is a must listen and a must download!
