Cover, Hip-Hop | PropaneLv – Ball (T.I. & Lil Wayne Cover)
Posted by Jess on January 1, 2013
Continuing his onslaught of covers PropaneLv has gone back to his urban side that made his No Lie cover so successful. This time bringing us his version of TI and Lil Wayne’s “Ball”. The beat alone is nuts, but I love Lv’s flow on this one, maybe more than any other cover he’s done. His improvement over the last 6 months has been fun to watch, can’t wait to see what’s next.

Hip-Hop | Master Shortie – Nobody Taught Me [Music Video]
Posted by Jess on December 21, 2012
Fresh off the release of his Studying Abroad mixtape featuring Outasight, Chiddy Bang and Ed Sheeran, Master Shortie is back with a brand new music video and song entitled “Nobody Taught Me”. The song is super fresh with an uptempo beat and a great hook. It is easily one of my favorite Master Shortie songs I’ve heard thus far. It also gives a good background on the London rapper who is breaking on the scene here in the States. Watch the video and download the song below!

Trance | Jaytech – Multiverse
Posted by Spice on December 12, 2012
With the full single package for the title track off of Jaytech’s recent artist album, Above & Beyond and the Anjuna team continue to prove that they’re willing to push the boundaries of trance. “Multiverse” in its original incarnation is a funky, deep house-inflected jam; the club mix maintains that sound and adds some heft to the bassline, while Audien brings in big, euphoric synths to the breakdown. Expect to see heavy support for this remix from other Anjuna artists — Audien is definitely one to watch in 2013. Rounding out the package is Russian up-and-comer Mimax, who gives the track a fresh, progressive vibe thanks to a new hook.

If you’re among the dwindling percentage of the population that considers the Grammys to be a relevant barometer of today’s music scene, this was probably an exciting morning for you. Nominations for the 2013 awards (where we honor songs from 2012; yes, it’s all terribly confusing) have arrived — and in true Grammys fashion, there are some absolute curveballs thrown into an otherwise dull and predictable mix. Chief among them:
1. No nominations for Bieber. Cue mass Belieber outrage. God willing, however, the Biebs will still get tapped to perform, and in doing so will treat us to yet another glorious display of those drop crotch Hammer-pant legging things he so favors.
2. “Levels” was apparently released after October 2, 2011 and thus qualifies for a nomination.
3. Al Walser.
Since we’re assuming that this is the first you’re hearing of Al, we’ve prepared this handy guide to get you up to speed with the man of the hour. Check out the high budget marvel that is the above video, and then join us after the jump.
Dubstep, Videos | Gemini – 3D Romeo

The first single off of Gemini’s next EP, “Mercury.” The video for this track is a visual mind f#@k, it is literally just thousands of pictures of the sky set in fast-forward, I will say it is pretty artsy to watch though. The song itself is smooth Gemini bass, his technique to producing melodic Dubstep is one of the finest only to be matched by Seven Lions. The “Mercury” EP is releasing November 19th, but this single and its instrumental are now available on Beatport.

Hip-Hop, Videos | Ariez Onasis – Victim (Short Film)
Posted by Mach on August 20, 2012
“Victim,” produced by J. Cardim, released just a week ago and finally the short film music video is. The track itself is Hip-hop with a little Dubstep flowing through the background, with the addition of samples from Katy Perry. Ariez takes this one to the chest, pumping out incredible verses that slightly alter your perception of Hip-hop’s future. The video is nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece. The true life gangster vibe from the video is cool to watch, as I’m sure it was to film.
” The goal in mind for “Victim” was simply, to make a masterpiece. The One of One production team brought forth the treatment & I was sold. Coincidentally, I had a performance booked in Athens, Greece around the time. The final product took longer than expected, but exceeded our expectations none the less. I’m very proud to present this video to the public. It is only the beginning of what’s to come for Ariez Onasis. Until next time!”
