Chill, Electronic | DAILON – Trips (Ion The Prize Flip)
Posted by BP on January 28, 2014
Ion The Prize, from California, has put out a trippy remix of Dailon’s “Trips” for us today. He gave the song more of an upbeat feel than the original track, and made it sound a bit more complex. You can still hear the chord progression from the mellow original, but with new drum work and vocal samples. His take on the track lends way to a higher pitched melody and quicker tempo as well. The ambient piano section at the end is very pretty. Grab this one for free right off Soundcloud!

Trap | Slugabed – Waterfallssssss
Posted by BP on January 20, 2014
Slugabed, from London, released his unique tune “Waterfallssssss” today. Although I can’t explain this artwork, this trap track is really fun. The beats are hard hitting, and have a sort of tribal vibe going on. Vocal chops and samples during the drops add a more finished touch. My favorite drop is the last one at 3:05. Check it out!

Chill | Nick Leng – Crawled Out Of The Sea
Posted by VMan on January 10, 2014
“Crawled Out Of The Sea” by Nick Leng was brought to my attention today and it’s that much needed sound vacation I’ve needed. Sometimes a nice little chill record is all the soul needs, and Mr. Leng delivers. I would classify this tune as chillwave with a little bit of trap. Word is Basenji is working on a remix, and another remix by a very popular producer that I won’t give away until confirmed. No samples, all original, peep Nick’s SoundCloud, and support this record by purchasing it on Bandcamp. This is a must listen!

Glitch | CloZee – Gotta Get Some Sleep
Posted by BP on January 6, 2014
I can’t remember if I’ve ever posted a glitch track, but what better day than my birthday to try something new? I couldn’t be happier I found it today since, as some of you know, Chicago is dangerously cold right now and we could use a distraction. “Gotta Get Some Sleep” by CloZee is fun, bouncy, and has a great mood to it. The horns and bass are funky and fresh. I’ve been following CloZee for a few years now, and she always impresses me. The slow section around 3:10 is a cool surprise so look out for that! This song is free on Bandcamp along with a lot of other sweet songs on the “Whompadelic Trip” album.

DJ Snake ended the year with a #1 on the iTunes Dance chart with Lil Jon’s “Turn Down For What,” announcing a residency in Las Vegas at Wynn Resorts, and back to back shows in NYC and San Diego to bring in the new year. Not slowing down, and for no reason in particular, today he releases a mash up of Prodigy and Mercer entitled “Breathe (Parisian Vision).” Go into this track with no expectations, the drop is going to be a slap in the face, one like you’ve never heard it before. This is a must listen and a must download!

** After reading the comments under the Snake track, it appears 4 months ago producer Breaux released his own remix of Mercer and Prodigy’s”Breathe” and it sounds exactly like the one that was released today! Have a listen for yourself!
