Dubstep, Featured, Preview | Petey Pablo – Raise Up (Manic Focus Remix)
Posted by Mach on April 22, 2013
Unfortunately for Petey Pablo, he is still serving the last year of his 3 year sentence for trying to bring a 9mm handgun on an airplane, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t rock out hard to this fire remix from Manic Focus. “Raise Up” was one of the first Petey Pablo tracks I had ever listened to, and has continually been a track I turn back to time to time for my listening enjoyment. Manic Focus killed it on this remix, the vocal layering is awesome but the instrumentals on this are absolutely epic. What a boss for whipping up this gem before his show on 4/20 in North Carolina. Manic Focus is currently working on his first album releasing sometime late this Spring.

Cool art, but wow… This is the energy we love to hear in a song, DallasK made this track bump. The build up is immense, but the drop sends you on fast spaceship through the stars with no stops. “Alienz” is set to release on April 30th on Beatport & iTunes.
Dubstep, Preview | MitiS Ft. Collin McLoughlin – Born (Vocal Mix)
Posted by Mach on April 17, 2013
MitiS and Collin McLoughlin have been all of the place lately. I got extremely excited when I saw they collaborated together for a vocal mix. MitiS produced another extraordinary Dubstep original and Collin has done nothing but show us that 2013 is his year. My only negative is that this preview is too short, I NEED MOAR! Luckily we wont have to wait long since MitiS and Collin McLoughlin plan on dropping this gem tomorrow for free.
Events, Preview | Made Event Presents: Hardwell, Dyro, Audien, Henrix & Alex English @ Governor’s Island Beach Club 5/26
Posted by Middy on April 15, 2013
Ready for a Sunday funday to remember? New York people, Governor’s Island Beach Club is getting ready to open back up for the summer after a star studded cast last summer that included performances from Dash Berlin & Tritonal, Alesso, Thomas Gold and Gareth Emery. On Sunday, May 26th, Hardwell will be joined by Dyro, Audien, Henrix and New York local Alex English for an 8 hour marathon event from 4pm to midnight on Governor’s Island with its beautiful backdrop overlooking the lower Manhattan skyline. If you want a variety of big room beats, this lineup has exactly what you want, ranging from the percussive heavy tracks from Henrix, to Audien’s brand of euphoric trance. On the heals of his massive Ultra set and his sold out “I am Hardwell” show coming up, the Dutch star is the logical first headliner for Governor’s Island. Tickets are now on sale, so grab them while they are still cheap / before they sell out.
Preview, Videos | Daft Punk tease “Get Lucky” at Coachella
Posted by Middy on April 13, 2013
I know you may be getting a little tired of the Columbia Records driven Daft Punk hype / tease machine that is in full effect right now, but last night at Coachella an artist that did not even perform stole the headlines and the show. All Daft Punk had to do was tease a little more of the track first heard on SNL, bringing in contributions from Niles Rogers, Julian Casablancas of the Strokes and vocals from Pharrell to help complete the picture on this epic track. The unique robotic Daft Punk sound is so great to hear again and combined with the funky riff we have heard countless times, it is sure to be something huge. Listen for yourself and don’t forget to pre-order the album. Updated with SNL Ad clip.
Preview, Progressive House | Sebjak & Marcus Schossow – Liceu (Preview)
Posted by Middy on April 12, 2013
First premiered by Thomas Gold on his Fanfare radio show, the widely anticipated 102nd Size Records release “Liceu” is officially previewed, as the label continues its 1 to 100 celebration. Marcus Schossow has caught the eye of 2 members of the Swedish House Mafia, having inked a deal with Axwell’s Axtone label, with a release forthcoming, and also through this collaboration with fellow Swede, Sebjak. which received the approval of Steve Angello, and earned them a release on Size Records. Sebjak has also been putting his name out there with a string of high profile remixes for the likes of CLMD and Tritonal. With prominent booming horns and a bouncy drum line, the track is a unique breath of fresh air in a climate where many minimal festival cuts seem to be relying on the same formula. “Liceu” has already been making its way into many DJs sets, and with its release fast approaching on April 29th, you can only expect the number to grow.
Chill, Preview, RnB | Brandy – Almost Doesn’t Count (Skit Remix)
Posted by Mach on April 8, 2013
Brandy remixes don’t come around too often and to my surprise it turned out to be beautiful. This track is way too smooth and sexy to not be addicting, I wish it would never stop playing. Sadly no download yet available from Skit but this is well worth the listen anyway.
