Progressive House | Strange Talk – Young Hearts (Marcus Santoro & JAKKO Bootleg)
Posted by Mel on February 10, 2014
Marcus Santoro and Jakko, previously known as Jako, who prior to that was just called Jake-oh, and prior to that just went by his ethnically pure Brazilian name of Lucas Bojakowski, have teamed up to remix Strange Talk’s “Young Hearts”. We have been supporting both of these guys for a while now and their styles fit together perfectly, like a delicate cupcake and a sweet, succulent flower. That flower has slowly at first and then with increasing speed entered that cupcake and what we have now is the merging of each of their sounds. Marcus’ euphoric, uplifting style gels perfectly with Jakko’s euphoric and uplifting style, which in turn creates an uplifting and euphoric track. Must listen, must download!!!

House | A’s Essential Weekend Tunes
Posted by BIGLIFE on February 7, 2014
It’s the weekend. You know what time it is. It’s time to spend entirely too much at the bar. It’s time to go home with that girl you met on Tinder that you’ll be ashamed of the next day. It’s time to hate yourself on Sunday after you look at your bank statement. We know the feeling, that’s why we’re here to enable that kind of behavior. We asked preeminent long-retired blog king “A” to gift us with a weekend playlist. Man, did he come through just in time for you to lose your dignity. His weekend selections are nothing short of fire flames. Bring your sunscreen, they’ll melt your face right off. It’s gold Jerry, gold!
Ambient, Electro | Barcelona – Background (MSG Remix)
Posted by admin on February 2, 2014
Despite their million+ fans, I was previously unaware of Barcelona. The group has chocked their SoundCloud full of remixes, and one in particular that really made a lasting impression was MSG’s “Background” reworking. The song takes ambient elements from Barcelona’s catchy vocals and mixes them with the deep house sounds that are making their rounds across the music world. The result is pure bliss for an entire four minutes and thirty eight seconds.
Both MSG and Barcelona hail from the Northwest state of Washington, a hub for all things culture and music. The local influences allowed for this track to click on multiple levels, making it enjoyable for indie and electronic fans alike.
I encourage you all to dive in to this song and stay up to date with future releases via Barcelona’s SoundCloud page.
Chill, Hip-Hop | Radical Something – Pure
Posted by admin on January 30, 2014
It’s been a hot second since we have heard anything from the Cali-based group, Radical Something, but thankfully they are back with a brand new song and video, “Pure”. The song is a refreshing switch up from the usual upbeat, poppy-sounds of summer that we usually get from the band. “Pure” is just that, a simple, melodic and slow ballad to the beauty of life and music. As we are stuck in the barren winter months it is important to take a step back and enjoy.
Rad-So, although not having to bear the sub-zero temperatures that us over on the east-coast do, are still making these cold months a tad more enjoyable. So, sit-back and take in “Pure”.
