Chill, House | Mosimann’s ‘The Gifted One” Takes Lyric Videos To The Next Level
Posted by VMan on June 17, 2016
Mosimann caught me off guard when I stumbled upon his lyric video for “The Gifted One”. He comes from France and has built his career within the city and in surrounding areas. One element I found particularly exciting was the sheer amount Mosimann has accomplished in a short amount of time. He has been a judge on The Voice Belgium, completely won the French show Star Academy, and has soared into the DJMag Top 100 in 2016. That’s alot.
It’s clear Mosimann’s promotion is as diverse as his background. His SoundCloud focuses on both the banger and chill side of electronic music.
His latest work is most definitely far from heavy. “The Gifted One”, is an innovative twist on the chill house you are hearing. It’s less deep house / tech house influenced, which is sort of the norm in America at the moment, and focuses on a poppier vibe, most so when the drop comes.
Mosimann’s “The Gifted One” is well-produced and easy to enjoy multiple times over, click the YouTube link above to learn more about this artist.

We’re all a part of a moment in hip-hop history during which artists who self-identify as “rappers” range drastically in regards to how they define that role, the kind of music they create and label as “hip-hop”, the kind of technical skill they possess. The aesthetic sound of rapping has become a ubiquitous part of pop radio, and with this change most of the rappers who strive for mainstream attention work harder to try to fit the mold of simplicity that generally regulates what becomes a hit or doesn’t. Within such a concentrated industry, there are limited outlets for the fan both of technically skilled rappers and melodicism; rappers who can really spit, but also who’ll experiment with club-ready production (hence the rapid success of artists who occasionally fit this mold: Kendrick, Macklemore, etc.). Tonight we bring you a record striving to do just this—simultaneously satisfy the tastes of both those who love the kind of melodic, synth-heavy trap beats that Judge (who—if you’re a Mike Stud fan—you’ve likely heard the work of on multiple occasions) so expertly crafts, and also appease those who listen to hip-hop for the advanced lyricism; the kind of alliteration, wordplay, and rhyme schemes that have become synonymous with Accent’s work. This is the kind of song that you can enjoy for whatever it is that makes your head bang, though I certainly hope you’re the kind of people who listen to lyrics. Accent’s new mixtape, The Last Lyricist, drops this winter.

On this week’s installment of #SundayStudDay, Mike turns up the heat and takes on a Judge-produced remix of Rocko’s “UOENO”. After a slow acoustic rendition of “I’m Not Sorry” lat week, this is filled with plenty of the clever lines you can expect from Mike Stud. Catch him and the Touring’s Boring crew on The Relief Tour this Summer.
Progressive House | Lift Off #012
Posted by Mel on June 6, 2013
Aside from how to fit a whole banana in my mouth, there are only two things I know. One being there has been some quality releases lately and two being they haven’t been posted. I won’t blame anybody W8 but I figured that this moment is what Lift Off was made for. There is a backlog of tracks that, if they were girls, would be known for their great personalities. That is the philosophy behind Lift Off. It only made sense to revive this series for at least one more instalment. We start off above with a modern rendition of a song that came out when I was just the sexy young age of seven. “By The Way” by The Red Hot Chili Peppers gets brought into 2013.

I wasn’t involved in a long and amazing relationship with this next song but it sure feels like I was. The way it just tears at my heart makes me feel like we’re going through a devastating break up. Whether that’s the impact the lyrics are having on me or I’m just making it up I do not know. What I do know is that I was an open canvas ready to be painted on and this track painted a masterpiece across my naked body.
Yes, the reality of rampant transexuals currently populating Brazil does worry me a bit. They look alright at first glance but by the time you find out it’s just too late. Might as well go through with it at that point. These are issues that Brazil’s Lucas Bojakowski hopefully doesn’t have to face and if he does, we won’t judge him for doing it. He has recently remixed Dirty South’s “Your Heart” beautifully and is giving it away for free.
Not including my parents, I have like 5 friends. Of those 5, about half are girls I don’t actually know but who’s Instagram’s I may have accidentally memorized and occasionally check when it’s time. Jk I don’t do that. That’s creepy. I hold myself to a higher standard than that. It may be okay for other people, mainly Avicii, to make subpar decisions regarding what to play at Ultra and memorizing Instagram’s, but not me. TOER is a name that nobody memorizes because nobody knows who he is. Though if he keeps putting out huge, big room originals like “Knight Lights”, that may change.
Hip-Hop | Huey Mack – Buzzkill (Prod. by Judge)

Rising country star, Huey Mack, remixes Luke Bryan’s latest single “Buzzkill” for his newest video release. I gotta admit this song is super catchy and I wouldn’t be surprised if this video racks up a lot more views than usual. Shout-out to Huey Mack and Jon Kilmer for the amazing guitar and piano work.
Hip-Hop, Videos | Mike Stud – Past Gone (Prod. by Judge & Swedes)
Posted by LoffyG on April 8, 2013
Mike Stud is back and puts down the party music to deliver us a song on a much more serious note. It’s about a girl he met while on tour who was struggling with depression, drug abuse and thoughts of suicide. Mike reached out to her and has given her comfort since hearing her story. This is a song he wrote for her and is undoubtedly some of his best work. If you would like, send POSITIVITY & SUPPORT to her Tumblr here. Relief coming May 6th.

Posted by J_Salzer on November 12, 2012
Often times I post music that is so breathtaking that I find myself at a loss for words. Being a blogger, that is slightly problematic. I’m having trouble forming words to describe how I feel about this song. I know that’ll probably get me comments like “GET OFF HIS DICK” from all of you internet trolls, but I’ll just go listen to this song to ease the pain. I swear, at one point, when he mixed one of my all time favorite songs “Crawl” into this mix, I got a bit emotional, reminiscing on how beautiful Ri’ and Chris’ love was, and all the past relationships I’ve messed up. Here I am, getting all emotional n shit. Don’t judge me.
