There’s nothing in the world that can beat a pool party with some great friends, great drinks, and great music – and we’re here to provide you with the perfect soundtrack to your summer. Much like ice cold Coronas with lime, The Rooftop Boys were made for summer. The NYC-based duo of Bender and Hyberbits are experts at sun-soaked melodies and laidback vibes, and they certainly shine through in the duo’s latest remix of The Griswold’s “If You Wanna Stay.” The indie pop croons of the lead vocalist perfectly complement the summer-ready melodies and groovy bass lines of The Rooftop Boys, and if you take one listen, you’ll know that this track was made for the summer.

Electronic | Discover Bliss with Chet Porter’s Remix of “Where Are Ü Now”
Posted by Juicebox on June 29, 2015
Nowadays, “Where Are U Now” remixes are like jelly bean flavors – there are so many of them, there are a couple of bad ones, but nearly everyone has their own opinion of their favorite one. The latest remix of Jack U’s hit with the Biebs comes from Chet Porter, a Toronto native who has delivered stunning future flips of Ryan Hemwsworth, Zedd, and Porter Robinson. Porter’s remix is unique because he didn’t take on the original track, rather he chose to re-work Ember Island’s ethereal cover – to great success. Ember Island’s heavenly croons provide the perfect partner for Porter’s beautiful synth melodies and jaw-dropping production.

House | Michael Calfan Unveils His Summer Anthem “Mercy”
Posted by Tay on June 24, 2015
We’ve come a long way since the days of listening to disco, house, and techno in illegal warehouse parties, but the soul and emotion of dance music has never changed. As dance music has grown bigger and bigger, producers have looked outside of traditional genre boundaries, bringing together different elements of various genres to create more innovative, niche sounds. Michael Calfan has been exploring deeper sonic territories of house lately, combining deep house with elements of big room to create what he dubs “soul house.” His latest track, “Mercy,” is soul house at its finest, as Calfan layers a piano-driven melody with an old-school vocal sample and blaring horn arrangements that gives the track a sunny personality.
