House | Route 94 – My Love f. Jess Glynne (Young Bombs Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on October 25, 2014
Route 94’s “My Love” was a smash for a reason. It captured that nostalgic 90’s deep house sensibility that’s a current trend in the space. I’m surprised I would like this because up-and-comers always try to remix popular songs (which is a mistake) and improve on the original, which is extremely difficult. Young Bombs have remixed “My Love” was incredible results It even caught the attention of Oliver Helden’s latest “Heldeep Radio 21” which is no small feat. This is a serious tune. Pick it up below.
Progressive House | Summer School – Nightly News
Posted by Middy on October 10, 2014
LA based producer Summer School has only three productions to his name, but has already shown quite a variety with his sound. Going from deep house to aggressive electro and now this super proggy tune, he already has shown he can do it all. This type of stuff is right up my ally and hits me right in the Prydzian feels, so don’t miss out with its wonderful groove and its polished melody. This is some nice real prog right hurr, so make sure you are grabbing this

Bass, Future House, Jersey Club | Blaz – I.L.F.T.B.
Posted by Spice on September 4, 2014
Let me level with you: I’m not entirely sure how to categorize this bouncy, synthy, delicious groove of a track from Austin-based DJ and producer Blaz. Future beats? Disco-wave? Nu-garage? SPACETRONICA? I don’t know, and I don’t care. Did you enjoy Porter Robinson’s new album but wish it wasn’t such a friggin’ downer? This track has your name on it. Head to Blaz’s Soundcloud for more of the good stuff.

Progressive House | Henrix & Sevag – Latina

Can you feel that bounce? Originally part of Cr2 Records Ibiza compilation earlier this summer, the full version of “Latina” has now hit stores. Two lovers of fine Latin women, it was fitting that these two would name a track after something like they are very fond for. As irresistible as a beautiful Latin woman on the beach of Miami, the tune comes at you an infectious groove and blaring horns. Grab this one below and get ready for more of these two.

Progressive House | Pierce Fulton – Runaway (Ansolo Remix)
Posted by Middy on July 15, 2014
This one makes me smile a little bit as someone who has been doing this long enough to see guys develop from nobodies into viable artists. Ansolo hits me up with this and his upcoming release on Size Records (not shabby at all) with the preface that I gave him some advice long ago and critiqued a few of his songs that he knows now were not that great. I am in no way saying I made his career and any blogger who says they made someone’s career has a serious god complex that needs to be checked, but it is great to hear an artist be thankful for something that isn’t just a generic post and can actually take some criticism, which is harder and harder to find nowadays from acts and their team.
Back to the tune, this one blew up and quickly, rising him to the top of the somewhat gimmicky Billboard trend charts, a feat since he was up against your typical obsessive teenybopper fan bases. Ansolo adds a little more bounce and groove to the tune, while still keeping much of the original feel of the tune. As I mentioned before, Ansolo has a tune out with his mentor Tom Staar on Size Records on Monday. Preview that huge tune below.
Events | Get Stoked: Ookay x Tropkillaz @ Regency San Francisco, TONIGHT
Posted by Nick on July 11, 2014
Okay, so it’s about that time of the year where work is pretty much at full-tilt and the novelty of it being summer has just about completely worn off. It’s about that time of the year where you have things planned for later, but right now, you’re just kind of sitting on your ass, waiting for an opportunity to let loose and really get down into that summer groove. Well, if you’re from the Bay Area, that opportunity has finally arrived: class-A trap troll Ookay and Brazilian heavy hitters Tropkillaz are hitting up Regency Ballroom this evening.
This show is going to be absolutely nuts. Ookay, a seasoned performer, fresh off the stage at EDC Vegas, will no doubt throw down one of the craziest live sets you’ll see this year. He’s also got a pretty sweet sense of humor that he somehow manages to factor into his sets. My personal favorite was when he trolled an entire venue with “Martin Garrix Had A Farm” – see the video evidence below.
As for Tropkillaz, everyone knows things are just a little more edgy in South America. You can count on something massively twerk-tastic from this Sao Paolo-based duo. It’s a bit NSFW, but if you want to see an example of a Tropkillaz show, go and check it out HERE.
So, before it’s too late (because it will get to that point), go and grab your tickets HERE. It’s time to get wild and say you actually did something this summer.

This soothing remix of Mapei’s “Don’t Wait” by Happy Aciddents found itself in my submission box, and I can’t help but be charmed by the flow of it, reminiscent of an 80’s pop record, but with a 21st century Brooklyn hipster twist to it, fitting for this Summer’s groove. Light and sweet seems to be the popular theme for this Summer’s hottest tracks, and Happy Accidents relay that loud and clear with their latest work, so let yourself be taken away, this is your vacation for the day. Get that free download, and enjoy!
