Electronic | Villms Creates Feel-Good Future Bass Remix Of Steve James’s “Renaissance”
Posted by VMan on December 5, 2016
Up-and-coming DJ/producer Villms takes a shot at remixing Steve James’s “Renaissance”, he’s on to something. The solo producer has relatable story – he’s single, young, an undergrad, essentially a bedroom producer, and has a mad passion to get his music out there and climb the ranks.
“Renaissance Ft. Clairity (Villms Remix)” takes the hit song and adds smooth future bass chords and high pitched vocals within the drop, as well as fresh drums attached to the original throughout. The elements are common in 2016, but undoubtedly enhance the vibe of the original.
Villms doesn’t look to be slowing anytime soon, catch more of his new music in 2017 and enjoy his latest remix above.

Albums | Odd Mob Is Down For Love
Posted by VMan on November 15, 2016
Odd Mob strikes back with a new single entitled “Down For Love” graced with newcomer Helen’s catchy vocals. This time, the duo comprised of Robbie and Harry delivers a track fusing Hip Hop and Future Bass. In fact, Odd Mob is constantly on the lookout for new sonorities to play around with, continually developing and growing their own sound. Would it be their 90’s throwback ‘Into You feat. Starley’, which dominated the ARIA club chart at #1 for a record 7 weeks, their Indian influenced track “Origin” or their bass heavy “Gassed Up”, Robbie and Harry are relentlessly experimenting with all of what music has to offer.
“We’re both huge fans of rap/hip-hop in general and basically started playing around with this old sampled drum beat. The whole track built itself around that in no time at all. It’s definitely one of our cleanest/tightest productions to date! We never set any boundaries when we hop in the studio so we’re always making stuff that sounds nothing like what we’ve made before. I mean, back in the day, songwriters only had access to a certain number of sounds, whether it be their guitar/drums or whatever analogue synth they happened to own. Nowadays we can literally use any sound in the whole world, so it just makes sense for us to always be making different music and experimenting with different sounds.” – Odd Mob

Chill | SAKIMA Creates New Chill Sound “All Your Secrets” That’s Hard Not To Love
Posted by VMan on November 10, 2016
If you love Moving castle, you will love what SAKIMA has thrown together. “All Your Secrets” takes forward thinking, chill-meets-r&b music, and smashes it together with some vocals that completely satisfies. Let’s just say SAKIMA in now on my radar. The flow and smoothness on this one is truly undeniable.
One element that impresses me is that SAKIMA has, in fact, worked with AOBeats, a Moving Castle founding member and a rising start within the niche (and beyond,) before releasing this single. Point being, this dude has undiscovered talent waiting to be harnessed and noticed.
The label, Manifesto, is a perfect fit for the sound, carrying signature musical elements within that I could easily see dance music lovers latching onto. Manifeso, SAKIMA, and “All Your Secrets” clearly pair together well. Click on the Sc link above for more info.
Dubstep | Chime Releases Bass-Filled Remix Of IMLAY’s Hazy Original “Empress”
Posted by VMan on November 5, 2016
Chime does some serious impressing with this one. With his three-stripes-and-a-circle symbol flying high, Chime add’s something to IMLAY’s “Empress” release that his fans love and know all too well. Vivid, melodic bass that’s a blast to rock out to “Empress (Chime Remix) give plenty of opportunity to do just that with this one.
Chime’s resume of sounds speaks for itself at this point. NCS, Firepower, MA Music, and Daily Earfood are just a handful of the labels Chime has been above to win over. All of his releases has a common core that runs through it, video game music seeming to be where he evolved from to get to this point. Word on the street is Chime will be dropping a full EP on Firepower Records as well. The man keeps pumping out tracks, interested to see how Chime will evolve in 2017.
If you enjoy melodic bass, Chime is your man.

Ravell is making big moves in the house scene, per usual, now landing on Kaskade’s (who has over 1m followers on SoundCloud alone) own label Arkade Records.
Ravell’s new single “Get Away” taps into the trippy elements that deep house provides as well as the gritty elements tech house can offer, conveying a powerful feeling throughout that would get any room properly warmed up. Seem to be his overall signature sound as your listen through his discography.
