Electro-House | Porcelain Black & Lil Wayne – Rock n Roll (R3hab’s Ruby Skye Remix)

Posted by on January 25, 2012

R3hab gave out this free remix yesterday and it is on fire. This is yet another stellar production from R3hab as an ode to one of his favorite clubs, Ruby Sky. The vocals from Porcelain Black and Lil Wayne match the heavy electro that R3hab throws into this remix. R3hab had a massive 2011, breaking onto the scene with his signature “Chainsaw Madness” and looks to go to even greater heights.

Videos | Cobra Starship – Middle Finger Ft. Mac Miller

Posted by on January 21, 2012

Cobra Starship’s album Night Shades dropped this past August, and a few days ago so did his new official music video. Like the title of the track, the video reflects how much they just don’t care what everyone thinks. Not exactly an original subject, but what is anymore? I was already hooked on this track, considering how catchy it is, but this video is awesome. Best part is when Mac Miller ditches the old lady on the side-walk and she gets owned by a puddle, haha.

Hip-Hop | Phony Ppl – Phonyland (Mixtape)

Posted by on January 18, 2012

To be honest, I had never heard of Phony Ppl before today. After giving them a listen, this is one of the most unique and interesting bands I’ve ever heard. Phony Ppl hail from Brooklyn and are made up of 9 group members. However picking a genre for them is tough though, they incorporate so many different sounds with jazz riffs to electro synths to laid back guitar tracks, which never seems to bore. Good verses on so many of the songs but then they switch it up and hit you with some R&B. This is the type of music that I really appreciate because so much thought and time went into this, 3 years to be exact. This is definitely a Must Download. Even if you don’t like it, it’s worth it to check out and appreciate these guys’ artistic ability. Check out their Facebook Here.

Preview, Progressive House | Cherry Coke & Alex, Audible, Chris Wittig, Jay Cosmic & Tjernberg

Posted by on January 17, 2012


Teaser above from Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike & Regi called Momentum is set to release February 14th, be ready for that. So below, Never 2012 sounds similar to Avicii’s Never Enough with eccentric vocals complimenting a progressive trance like explosion of monumental happiness. I’d expect 2012 to be quite the year for Cherry Coke given his exalting ear for music, let’s wait and see what happens next.

Summit is a track that’s been stored in my archive for quite some time now and always cheers me up. Expect a really nice remix of this track coming soon. Get it on Beatport.
DOWNLOAD: Audible – Summit (Original Mix)

I got this track the moment it reached Beatport, and honestly didn’t think too much about it. After observing the positive response it now has, why not. Chris Wittig’s take on It’s Alright features a soothing synth with that glitched idea Alesso first coined in his remix of Pressure. Get it on Beaport.

Tjernberg and Jay Cosmic are both under the age of 18. I’m fascinated by these young producers and their talent thus far excites me!

Preview, Progressive House | Alesso, Walden, Inpetto & D’Anconia

Posted by on January 12, 2012

Alesso with another one of his many ID’s still not yet released is sounding epic. I had the opportunity to see Avicii and Alesso at separate times in the same venue and Alesso was by far my favorite, his transitioning between tracks was stellar, never dropped the energy of the crowd, and catered a variety of new material. It leaves me wondering what exactly is Avicii doing, I would pay to see him take some time off touring and get back in the studio. Now occasionally there comes a time when tracks tend to accumulate in mass like we have here below, all three are worth your time and would be impossible to place in any particular order, give them all a try, and lastly – NLN deserves huge credit for this post.

Brightness is candy to my ears. I spent a while trying to remember what the drop sounded like, its a toy I used to play with as a kid. A tube with a ball that would go to either side and make a cool noise haha, any remembrance?. Anyways – Get it on Beatport.
Walden – Brightness (Original Mix)

No More Serious Faces I’d say does just that, A great sounding reason to be happy. Get it on Beatport.
Inpetto – No More Serious Faces (Original Mix)

Elodie is a calm rage, definitely the best of both worlds.
D’Anconia – Elodie (Original Mix)

House | Bingo Players – Rattle (DJ Bent Bootleg ft. Ru Williams)

Posted by on December 30, 2011

DJ Bent, out of Connecticut, collaborating with Ru Williams to create a sick vocal mix to Bingo Players Rattle track. A dope tune for all to dance to for NYE. Ru Williams vocals provide a new R&B aspect to this house track, which in my opinion works out very well.
