House | Kanye West – Bound 2 (Solidisco Remix)
Posted by admin on November 28, 2013
Now that you’ve gained about 43 pounds in food weight, I think it’s about time you danced it all off. Here to help you with that is the newest remix from Solidisco for Kanye West’s, “Bound 2”. In the wake of the risqué video, Solidisco thought that a fun, bouncy remix was in order. The song focuses on the Charlie Wilson vocals and oozes with a French Touch style.
The remix is about as far from the original Yeezus sound as it gets, however, as I’m sure Kanye would agree: music is about originality. Enjoy the free offering and sleep tight.
Progressive House | Celine Dion – Loved Me Back to Life (Lewys Knowles Remix)
Posted by Mel on November 24, 2013
I’m not going to act like some big tough guy and pretend that I’m not still attracted to Celine Dion because I am. Just kidding I’m not. I only vaguely know what she even looks like and that’s only because she commonly makes appearances in my dreams (the sexual ones). While everything I’ve said up until this point is pretty irrelevant and also probably untrue, it felt like the ice needed to be broken before I posted a Celine Dion remix. 20 year old Lewys Knowles, who was born in Portugal and is now living in France is the producer behind my favorite remix out of the many I have heard of Celine Dion’s “Loved Me Back To Life”. The forceful piano tying the break and the build together sets an eerie tone and in turn creates a darker atmosphere than commonly seen in these types of tracks. He had intended to submit this into the remix competition but it was not finished in time so it is now available as a free download.
Chill, Trap | phazz x the ninetys – touch me
Posted by BP on October 28, 2013
Once again I’ve got another banger from The Ninetys for you! “Touch Me” is a track that The Ninety’s and Phazz collaborated on. Bringing together their skills from the UK and France, this collab is amazing. The Ninetys trap style drums are clean and crisp, and bring the bass to the track. Phazz has a way with melodies that is clearly displayed on this track. Overall it’s a nice chill song for your collection, and it’s free!
Electronic | Drake – Come Thru (Noïthingness remix)
Posted by BP on October 10, 2013
Nøïthingness, coming to us from Lyon, France, puts out remixes and beats that are pretty unique. Since so many remixes of Drake are surfacing right now, I figured one with a different kind of beat was needed. This remix is fun and bouncy, with a a quick and complicated beat. Featuring vocal chops and quiet synths, it’s really a cool listen. Download this one for free on Facebook!

House, Mix | Klingande – Jubel & Musique Chic Mixtape
Posted by mimada on September 16, 2013
It’s a very rare thing to experience an artist live for the first time and immediately and unexpectedly fall in love with them right then and there. When I got the chance to see the French duo Klingande, I went in with an open mind and ended up being totally mesmerized during the entire hour and a half long set. How these guys have gone under my radar for so long, I’m not sure, so I’m thrilled to be sharing them now. Their live set was by far one of the most energetic I’ve seen yet this year. Imagine: Big Gigantic meets Disclosure, with a twist of that upbeat nu-disco from the likes of Dimitri From Paris. It was the perfect medley of funky jams, house, and indie electronic, which sounds like a crazy combination of everything but I promise, these guys make it work. And you better believe there was a live sax player rockin’ out up there, too.
Their first track I’m sharing, titled “Jubel,” seems to be one of their most popular tracks around these parts. It’s a got a great, vivacious melody, delicate vocals and a super groovy appearance by the sax.
This second one is a summer mixtape they produced for the French music blog, Musique Chic, which gives a much better feel for what their live set was like. I’ve had this one of repeat for days now and would encourage you to take advantage of this free download as well.
Looks like these Frenchmen have yet to make their way to the states, so for now, keep posted on their social media for upcoming releases. Fantastique ^_^

Electronic | Amerie – Gotta Work (Phazz Remix)
Posted by mimada on September 4, 2013
Unlike most girls, I LOVE surprises. And boy did this Amerie remix from French producer Phazz knock me off my feet (or swivel chair, whatever). It starts off pretty trill and then about a minute in… well, I don’t wanna spoil the treat. All I can say is you better not pass on this soulful free download. Browsing through some of Phazz’s older tracks you might find that not only are they all free as well but they’re actually all very dope. In fact, the name should ring a bell if you’ve been on top of your music blogging game. So check it ~

Chill, RnB | Joel Compass – Astronaut (Ghost Loft Remix)
Posted by VMan on July 26, 2013
Wow, what a find! UK R&B singer Joel Compass’ latest single “Astronaut” just received a remix treatment by Ghost Loft and it’s impeccable. No other word. I’m out here at the airport, about to catch a plane for some R&R in the South of France, and I feel like I’m already off the ground. This track is a must listen, and it’s a bummer we have to wait till September 2nd for Joel to release this single off his EP Astronaut, but for now we’ll enjoy this SoundCloud stream! And thank you Ghost Loft for that free ticket to space! Look forward to more collaborations from these two dope artists! Reminds me of the vocalist/producer tandem Usher/Diplo…
