Electronic, Indie | Kid Astray – Taking You With Me (Alizzz Remix)

Posted by on July 9, 2014

Alizzz’s official remix of “Take You With Me” by Kid Astray is packed with feels. This emotional remix is top notch and provides a nostalgic vibe. While remaining on the chill side of electronic, this track has enough speed and percussion to push it away from words like mellow. Alizzz is from Barcelona, and is currently on tour in Europe. Under Diplo’s label, Mad Decent, Alizzz just keeps dropping banger after banger. Grab this track for free if you’re feelin’ it.

Deep House, Melbourne Bounce | Happy Endings – Shy Guy

Posted by on February 17, 2014

Throughout my time studying and traveling here in Europe, I’ve somehow managed to meet heaps of Aussies everywhere I go. I’ll admit I love their company so I don’t mind but at times it makes me wonder if they’re in the works of some secret, global takeover of sorts…. Anyways, today’s first track, “Shy Guy,” was brought to my attention by word of mouth from a Sydney native whom I encountered in my hostel in Berlin last week. I was pleasantly surprised to give it a listen later on and discover that it was in fact worth a second, third, and fourth listen after that. Happy Endings, although lacking almost any kind of background information, seems to be a deep house-producing duo led by Melbourne Bounce star Fat Blake. There’s something unique about this track compared to a lot of other songs from this genre that I’ve been listening to that I can’t quite put my finger on, but that makes me all the more excited to see what they come out with next.

Electronic, Videos | Carte Blanche – Gare du Nord

Posted by on November 25, 2013

Can we all just stop and take 2:48 to remember this amazingly ridiculous (because of the video) / actually-good (because of the music) song released back in 2010 by Ed Banger duo, DJ Mehdi and Riton, off their EP “Black Billionaires EP”. Even though the video features a super hyphy 80’s crowd getting down to some original electro, don’t let the retro get to you; this song is pretty epic. Taking you back in time, the beat is absolutely perfect. Gare du Nord (“North Station”) is one of the six large terminus stations of the SNCF mainline network for Paris. It offers connections with several urban transportation lines, including Paris Métro, RER and Buses. By the number of travelers, at around 190 million per year, it is the busiest railway station in Europe and outside Japan. I can only imagine people in Paris going beserk to this song in their world-renowned clubs… Like I said, epic.

Electro-House | Kylie Minogue – Skirt (GTA Remix)

Kylie Minogue - Skirt (GTA Remix)

One of your DJs favorite duos, GTA have joined an outstanding cast of remixers taking on Kylie Minogue‘s recent single “Skirt“, taking it from a radio friendly hit, to a club ready track. In a package with Nom de Strip, Hot Mouth, Switch and others, GTA find a way to stand out once again for their originality and potency as they bring they make the most of this track. Using just the right amount of vocals from Kylie Minogue, the Miami duo add a powerful kick, churching synth chords and booming horns to create a surprisingly powerful offering for the original. The duo, who are in the midst of a tour in Europe with David Guetta and Rihanna, show that even in the midst of mediocrity (Rihanna isn’t so bad), they can still come up with original music.

Rejoice, Avicii is making it cool for you to wear cowboy boots and your neon YOLO hat in the same outfit to your favorite mediocre local festival! First premiered on the Mainstage during his unpredictable set at Ultra Music Festival, Avicii‘s lead single “Wake Me Up” from his upcoming album “TRUE“, has finally hit stores worldwide. It has been released in Europe for a week now, but as of today it is available worldwide on Spotify and iTunes. It is exciting to this change in direction from Avicii and the possibilities of what he can bring in the future since he has inspired so many copycats in the past few years. Whether or not his fans will be supportive of his new sound 100% remains to be seen, but you can expect September 17th to be a landmark day for one of the titans in dance music.
