Progressive House | Rune RK, Andreas Moe – Power Of You And Me (Teacup) (Michael Brun Remix)
Posted by Middy on February 26, 2013
Fast rising star, Michael Brun gives us his first production of the year ahead of his incoming EP, a remix of Rune RK’s new original with Swedish vocalist Andreas Moe, “Power Of You And Me”. Michael Brun takes full advantage of Andreas Moe’s soaring vocals and adds his own flavor with fluttering strings, a churning low end and matching synth chords. While this remix may not enjoy the same success that “Burn Forever” has, it is still getting support from some big names and is yet another very good production from the Haitian born producer.

Dubstep, Electro, House | The Two Friends – You (Me) EP & Remixes
Posted by Mach on February 26, 2013
The Two Friends’ EP, “You (Me) EP” has been out for a little less than a month now. Since its release, the EP has charted in Beatport’s Progressive House section at #4. Today they have dropped their hefty remix EP containing remixes from a long list of great up and coming producers, providing a large array of styles tried out on the originals. Seeing how their are so many remixes to pick from, I have to narrow down my top 5 not including the originals. Moiez created a beautiful House remix, I love how the vocal were used and the melody is mesmerizing. The Slap The Bag & Mapp remix uses a lot of classic House synths, once the drop comes in the track is a journey of wonderful sounds.
PrototypeRaptor’s remix might be my favorite of all the remixes. I love the funky Electro vibes that he has going throughout this track, it was something I was just not prepared to hear. Of course Gazzo had to create an equally incredible remix. He always places the vocals perfectly over the instrumentals he creates, it’s like Gazzo has a sixth or maybe even a seventh sense. His remix is perfect raging material. Picking a fifth track is not easy, every remix on this EP is good. It came down to the roll of a die, literally, I had to take it out of my Monopoly game. The winner is Clark Kent’s crazy Dubstep remix. Ever since his remix of “Skyfall,” I have been sold on his skills as a producer. My top 5 in no way reflects how great this remix EP actually is. I highly recommend giving each remix a listen, they will not disappoint.

Dubstep, Electronic, Glitch | Reso – The Rugged
Posted by Sev on February 26, 2013
Reso has been on the grind as of late creating some of the most intricate and unique tracks out there. His latest creation is a one of a kind Neuro-hop track that is crazy on the basses. After being signed to Inspected and on the verge of releasing his Tangram Remix EP, he decided to give away this track for free to showcase what is to come. This one is some next level KOAN Sound styled funk that is just too hard to describe. It is almost like if you took a 90’s hip hop vibe and mashed it with some of the most grueling, tearing mid-range basses in the business; that would be equivalent to the outcome of this track. Grab the free download and follow Reso for more updates on his upcoming releases.

Trap | Stromae – Humain à l’eau (Dj Snake Remix) / DJ Snake & Alesia – Bird Machine [Preview]
Posted by Spice on February 20, 2013
And here we have some straight bombs from French producers DJ Snake and Aleisa. The above preview for “Bird Machine” notably made its way into Knife Party’s recent set in the RISE digital music festival on turntable.fm after Mixify’s servers couldn’t handle the heat, and is easily some of the best trap I’ve heard in a long time. If you’re into it and need it now, fear not; it’s set to drop tomorrow as part of a mini EP on Mad Decent’s Jeffree’s imprint. Below, we’ve got some legitimate swag for your ears that for whatever reason is made even swaggier by the fact that it’s all happening in French. Fact: the awesomeness of that drop negates the need to understand what he’s saying, anyway. Free DL; no brainer.
Dubstep, Preview | Koven – No Blocks
Posted by Mach on February 12, 2013
People need to know Koven. His upcoming EP, “More Than You” is going to be a chart topper, I can just feel it. He incorporates the melodic vibes that everyone loves but also rocks bass to your core like no other. “No Blocks” is what Koven does. The melody takes you for a smooth ride until you meet the drop, and from there it sends chilling bass through you until the next lull. Koven’s EP “More Than You” releases on March 4th through Viper Recordings.
Hip-Hop | J. Cole – Truly Yours EP
Posted by LoffyG on February 12, 2013
It’s been awhile since we’ve last heard any new material from J. Cole, so in light of that he just released this 5 track EP of unreleased material. This is what he had to say:
I appreciate you giving me the time I needed to grow, experiment, and find the direction for my 2nd album.. And I have.
Along the way I’ve recorded at least 4 albums worth of material, lots of it being unfinished demo versions waiting to be polished up, some of them are great songs and important stories that just won’t make the album (either they don’t fit Sonically, don’t fit Theme, or there’s just not enough space) .Tonight, I want to give you a few of these songs because you deserve them. It’s hard as fuck for me to keep all this music from you for so long, so I know it’s been hard for you to wait. Thank you for your patience. Vibe out to these songs in their raw form, no polish.. just a lot of my soul..
The wait is over.
Truly Yours,
Born Sinner
He also announced that his album “Born Sinner” is ready, claiming it’s his best work yet. The first single is set to release this week. Until then, sit back and listen. You can download the full EP and preview the last 4/5 tracks below!
