House | EDX Releases “Revered” and “Want You (Then I Found You)” From His Arsenal of House Hits
Posted by Tay on November 3, 2015
When you’ve been around the scene for as long as EDX has, you pick up a few tricks here and there that help you streamline your entire workflow. For the Swiss dance authority, that means his already-strong ear for production is only getting better, making it easier than ever for him to deliver quality house productions. Take a look at EDX’s releases from 2015 and you’ll see that he’s hit on nearly all of them across the board – “Remember House” to kick off the year, “Belong” and his “Indian Summer” remix of Sam Feldt’s “Show Me Love” over the summer, and to close out the year strong, EDX has released two massive tracks from his arsenal, “Revered” and “Want You (Then I Found You).” The former is a tech house masterpiece with thumping synths and a smooth vocal topline, while the latter features BB Diamond delivering her iconic croons over a deep house anthem. On top of his rigorous release schedule, EDX will be taking over Create Nightclub in Los Angeles this weekend and Ruby Skye in San Francisco in December for two special nights of his NoXcuses parties that you don’t want to miss.

Exclusive, Pop | Premiere: Melleefresh – Apparition (Original Pop Mix)
Posted by Middy on September 18, 2014
For dance music fans, the name Mellefresh is familiar. She has most notably collabed with Deadmau5 to create Freshmau5 back in the early days of his career on tunes like “Hey Baby” and “Sex Slave”. More recently, the singer, songwriter, producer and DJ has been branching out beyond deadmau5’s twisted mind into drum n bass and tech house / minimal with Alixanderlll, part of the revered Azari & III duo. She is also an accomplished artist in her own right and is taking it out to the world with this self-produced and self-written tune “Apparition”. Melleefresh brings together the modern and the pop sensibilities of the 80s as the robotic voice clashes with the themes of love in the tune. We have the premiere for you until it is released on October 6th via Play Records, so stream away now!
House | WhiteNoize & Nima G – Haters Get Mad

A wise Fat Jewish man once said, “I keep an umbrella with me at all times to shield me from the tears of my haters.” Keeping a hater umbrella handy is something San Francisco based Dj/production duo, WhiteNoize, should probably consider doing because these fellas go to work and where there is someone working hard , there is usually a hater lurking, ready to cry their big salty tears all over the place. This Tech-House tune with deep dance-floor tenancies goes out to the haters for staying on their job. Haters would be better off popping a molly and giving someone a hug, then they are wasting their bodie’s hydration on hate-tears but then who would fuel the tanks of the achievers in the world? Either way, haters are going to have to figure out a way to stay hydrated cause bottled water isn’t getting any cheaper and you know they stay broke.

With nothing more than an mp3 file and a cover art, this is how this track was submitted to me from an unknown email address. Too good to pass on, I uploaded it up on my personal SoundCloud to share with ya’ll. “Moves Like Ms Jackson” is a smooth tech house, deep house record incorporating samples from Outkast’s many classics over the years! If you have any idea who is behind this, hollar at me, I need to know! This is hands down a must listen!
**Update: this track is making its rounds on the blogosphere and made its way up on Hypem

Alternative, Indie, Pop | NAIMAH – Wolf & I // Bittersweet Refrain
Posted by Spice on November 25, 2013
I’m interrupting my regularly scheduled deep/tech house programming to deliver your ears some absolutely gorgeous indie-pop from one of D.C.’s newest and brightest songbirds. Back from #DTLA after four years at USC, 22 year-old Naimah brings a lyrical, dreamy touch to the two wonderfully assured productions below. The haunting “Wolf & I” — not an Oh Land cover, mind you — is simultaneously delicate and warm, thanks to stirring vocals and a languid yet evocative arrangement. “Bittersweet Refrain” features similarly tight vocal harmonies and heady instrumental builds, but the main highlight is really Naimah’s voice — which has a distinctly ethereal quality without sacrificing power. Par excellence. Naimah will soon be releasing her debut EP Reverie, so this is surely not the last you’ll be hearing from her — in fact, I think it’s safe to say that this is just the beginning.
