Hip-Hop, Videos | Hodgy, Domo Genesis And Tyler, The Creator- Rella
Posted by Mach on February 21, 2012
OFWGKTA is back with something that the word dope just doesn’t really describe properly. Tyler, The Creator has directed some insane videos of OFWGKTA’s, now including this. This track is set to drop off of their upcoming mixtape, OF Tape Vol. 2, on March 20th. This is truly just another top notch release from the gang. I can’t wait for the mixtape to drop, #GOLFWANG
Progressive House | Tobi D’Eramo – Grapevine (Original Mix)
Posted by W8 on February 20, 2012
Tobi D’Eramo comes through with yet another record to proclaim his consistency thus far in EDM. Grapevine depicts the soulful voice of Marvin Gaye following an uplifting, energetic melody that motivates you to drop what you’re doing and find the nearest celebration. Be sure to keep tabs on this guy!
Videos | Skrillex – Bangarang (Official Video)
Posted by Spice on February 17, 2012
Brand spankin’ new music video for Bangarang, hot and fresh out the proverbial kitchen that is Skrillex’s manager’s Twitter feed. With cherry bombs, some Emperor Palpatine-esque electricity hands (I like Star Wars as much as Skrillex likes Peter Pan, NBD), and a climactic machine gun fight, this latest release is quite in keeping with Skrillex’s past videos — especially since the narrative once again explores the tension between right and wrong. Enjoyable video for an enjoyable song. Keep watching until the end, and be sure to snag the Bangarang EP (and its titular track) if for some reason you’ve been in space since December and don’t already have it.
Progressive House | Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike & Regi – Momentum (Original Mix)
Posted by W8 on February 15, 2012
We first got a glimpse of Momentum when it premiered at Tomorrowland last year, that just so happens to take place in the homeland of both Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike in Belguim. They, alongside friend and fellow producer Regi have produced a calmly driven, simplistic record full of synths and chords made of bright and cheery noise. The brothers are renown for their usual hard stuff which may give this record mixed opinions, but one thing is for certain – Momentum shines light on their versatility as producers, and let’s our imaginations run rampid as to what may come next of them. No doubt, these brothers know how to party and inherently reflect that in the quality of their production.

Dubstep | M.I.A. – Bad Girls (StereoHeroes Remix)
Posted by Spice on February 15, 2012
Ever since I watched the video for M.I.A.’s “Bad Girls” last week I knew we’d be in for a slew of heavy remixes. What I didn’t realize is that one would come so quickly. StereoHereos brings the filth on this, adding a wicked beat and some grimy synthwork that complement the tone of the song perfectly. If you haven’t checked out the video yet you definitely should — if only because I really need someone to tell me where I can buy everything that M.I.A. is wearing and how I can get my car to do that.
RnB | Usher & Diplo – Climax
Posted by Spice on February 14, 2012
Going to preface this by saying that I’m pretty sure I slow danced to this exact song at multiple school dances/bar mitzvahs/etc in the period spanning from 2001 to 2003. You know exactly what I’m talking about: one second it’s all fun and games, with everyone bobbing along in a large circle of Abercrombie graphic tees to “Ride Wit Me” (with the show-offy pros going word for word with Nelly on every verse), but then, in a single moment, everything changes. The tempo slows. The lights probably dim. And after a few plaintive notes, the sensual vocal stylings of Usher descend upon the dance floor. The tension in the room will immediately ratchet up about seven levels because this entire transition is unmistakable: everyone knows that Usher is the international signal for This Is About To Get Serious.
So with all of that in mind, here is a brand new, undeniably throwback-y collabo from Diplo and Usher, hopefully in time for whatever Valentine’s Day…celebrations…you may have planned for later this evening. It’s gloriously cheesy, smooth and catchy, and definitely timely: If not Feb 14th, when? So Happy Valentine’s Day, FNT. Grow some balls and ask your crush to dance if you couldn’t do it the first time around. And bring on the remixes.
EDIT: Read this interview with Diplo while listening to this song.
