Electronic, House | Funky Friday #1
Posted by Mach on January 25, 2013
The on going joke between my friend Nammo and myself is that we should have lived our 20s in the 1970s. We just love the funky, disco vibes that just make you want to feel good and break it down. There isn’t anything wrong with a little funk in the week so I decided to start up Funky Friday. This dance filled post will contain Funk, Bass Funk, Disco-House, basically any and everything that could connect with your funky bone. Starting off the first Funky Friday is an epic vinyl only release from Ghetto Funk. It is probably one of the greatest things I have ever heard. Again it is vinyl only release on Jan. 28th. These previews are worth dipping into though.
Next is a golden Disco-House remix from RUNVS. This is my tune of the weekend, I just can’t get enough of it.
This De La Phunk remix is a sort of lounge Disco-House to start, but then two minutes in the finally piece of the puzzle breaks in. This would be such an awesome song to hear live and loud, feeling the beat pound into your chest and exhale through your legs.
It wouldn’t be a funky post without Aeroplane’s Miami synths. 1980s styled Disco-House with a little bit of that Miami spirit going through your speakers.
Hip-Hop, Pop | Double Vision – Right Here
Posted by Mach on January 25, 2013
This is quite the jam from duo Double Vision. This would be their second single release from their upcoming album “Neon Shades.” The first thing about this track that caught my attention was the uplifting hook that many have grown to love from other groups such as Timeflies. Honestly if I wasn’t told who did this song I might have quickly mistaken it as a new track from Cal and Rez. The production from Lü Balz on this track is flawless, the beat matches to the verses and hook, and progresses perfectly through each part of the song. Seriously though, the hook on this track is too good. Big ups to Double Vision on this monster.

Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Preview | Reso – Tangram Remixed EP
Posted by Mach on January 23, 2013
2013 is already turning out to be an awesome year for electronic music in my opinion. Reso has an awesome line up of remixing artists for his upcoming remix EP of his recent EP release “Tangram.” The remix EP features KOAN Sound, Om Unit, Billain, and Doshy. KOAN Sound’s remix is a lot more abstract than I am used to hearing from them. Their remix of “Axion” is a very deep, bassy Drum & Bass track that transitions into a kicked up Midtempo jam. Om Unit has my favorite remix of the whole EP. The way they remixed “Simple Pleasures” creates the emotion that the title is so deserving of. The track is very chill and still with the same deep bass that carries out through all the remixes. Billain made a dirty Neuro-Dubstep remix of “Half Life,” making my ears convulse in the craziest ways. The last remix from Doshy is the only one of the EP that does not have its own clip. Doshy’s remix of “Coronium” is what I would call an abstract take on Trap. Oddly enough the idea works, and Doshy’s remix provides a cool-temperatured finish to the EP. The remix EP is set to release March 11th.

Alternative, Chill | Chrome Sparks – Marijuana (Haywyre Piano Cover)
Posted by Mach on January 22, 2013
Haywyre is one of the artist we imagine is going to have an incredible year for 2013. His song per week with Caliber Records is just around the corner and I couldn’t be more excited for him. In anticipation, Haywyre handed out this delectable piano cover of Chrome Sparks’ “Marijuana.” Though only a few minutes long, this cover really gives you an insight into Haywyre’s composing abilities.

Electronic, Hip-Hop | Fela Kuti – Water No Get Enemy (Majestry Remix)
Posted by Mach on January 21, 2013
This is a first, I had no idea anyone else knew who Fela Kuti was. For those that didn’t know, he is probably one of the coolest producers from the 1980s. He started 8 record labels which include MCA (which is now Universal) and JVC, was one of the top Civil Rights activists of the 1970s, and he is the pioneer of Afrobeat music. Afrobeat is a blend of Jazz and Soul, which lead to the eventual creation of Hip-Hop. Majestry picked a classic of his to remix and came through with this incredible future-beat, Hip-Hop instrumental. This remix is a must have.

House | Archie – Famous
Posted by Mach on January 18, 2013
Big congratulations to Archie for being signed to Monstercat and for this massive first release through them. It has been a real enjoyment watching Archie grow from being assumed as a new alter-ego of Tim Berg, to pushing his name through the US, and finally at this incredible feat before us, fame. The title of the track couldn’t be anymore perfect, it is clearly an ensemble of his styles leaving us with this incredibly wild House original.

House, Preview | Kahwe – Driving Me Wild EP
Posted by Mach on January 18, 2013
Wow, this is a pretty big EP for up and coming producer Kahwe. The entire EP is full of deep House goodies, starting with the title track “Driving Me Wild.” The track has a soulful take on the deep and garaged styled House music. The second track “Anything” has that same aspect only with a bit of that 70s and 90s blend of funk. “Anything” is most definitely my favorite of the three, though they are all great sounds. The last track “Yew” is much more laid back than the others, but gives off a warm feeling that you get from having drinks with your friends in a lounge. Kahwe’s new EP “Driving Me Wild” releases February 11th.
