Playlists | WARM AIR vol. 1
Posted by mimada on June 21, 2013
When it comes to summertime playlists, it’s a cutthroat battle for the ultimate, all-inclusive and trendiest compilation, so hear me out for a second. Allow me to introduce to you, Warm Air, a three-part series by yours truly that will coincide with the rise and fall of your sweet summer season. I present to you this first installment of my series on the first day of summer, appropriately, in hopes that you might enhance any which way you decide to spend your greatest allowance of sunlight with the shimmering sounds of some of my current favorite artists. This playlist in particular is for the moment you wake up when the possibilities for your day are limitless; the sun is sparkling everywhere from the leaves on the tree to the water in the pool and the hood of your new Bugatti. With a mimosa in one hand and your beach towel in the other, these tracks will inspire and motivate you to carpe the shit out of the diem. But what happens when the sun is hot, the babes are out and you’re ready to play? Stay tuned for volume 2, coming soon to a boombox near you…

DJ-Set, House | Weekend Mixes 11/15/12
Posted by Middy on November 15, 2012
It is that time of the week again. With rivalry weekend and its impending debauchery coming to many campuses across the nation, here are some mixes to keep the party going from sun up to sun up. We start things off with The Drop and their episode this week that features a guest mix from one of the drunkest DJs on twitter, Maor Levi. Next up we have the Bingo Players’ monthly radio show, Hysteria Radio that features exclusive mashups and their latest single “Out Of My Mind“. Together We Are from Arty has been a great addition to the radio show circuit this year and already in its 20th episode, it continues to showcase lesser known tracks and put together a different and excellent tracklist. Swanky Tunes give their monthly Showland podcast with a guest mix from the Nicky Romero and a whole host of unreleased tracks. The rest of the sets are from Tritonal, Diplo, Steve Angello (short one), Hot Mouth, & Thomas Gold. Tracklists and more sets after the jump.
Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | Lil Wayne – Dedication 4
Posted by A on September 3, 2012
I listened to the first four minutes of the mixtape and I heard no less than 30 lighter sparks. I kid you not. On a 1-10 scale of glad trash bags, this mixtape is straight trash. The only place this mixtape is going is to my trash bin. Side note: Who in the hell is purchasing trukfit? Perhaps the only redeeming quality of this entire project is that Lil Wayne’s weed carries recruited “Lil Mouse,” who’s a testament to an epidemic of poor parenting currently sweeping the nation, to be featured on the tape. It’s really over for Dwayne Carter. He’s well past his prime, and his contemporaries have surpassed him in creativity and style. It’s time for him to ride off into the sunset on his board with leopard jeggings on and peddle low-brow skateboarding and vodka brands they sell at CVS. Don’t forget to back slide heel flip to triple darkslide, brah.

Indie | W8’s Indie Pack #4
Posted by W8 on August 17, 2012
27 million years ago penguins were five feet tall. Let’s keep that in mind as we make our way into the fourth installation of indie pack, previously known as indie thursday. Sometimes you just have to let the songs do the talking. They go well with sun, weekends, and friends.
Progressive House | Dubvision – All By Myself
Posted by Middy on February 28, 2012
Dubvision drops this bomb on Spinnin Records that is sure to get you moving. With its easy, smooth build this song lulls to sleep with vocals from Moby – Lordy Don’t Leave Me, and then crescendos into a drop with pounding bass line and driving, uplifting synths with the occasional stutter to add variation. This song has been supported by almost every DJ under the sun including Arty, Sander van Doorn, Tiesto, Armin van Buuren and many more.
Electro | Viceroy – Sunburn EP
Posted by GMONEY on November 10, 2011
Viceroy always comes through with that feel good sound that just makes you want to abandon the stress of the daily grind and just kick back and spend a mindless and carefree day at the beach. On his Sunburn EP, Viceroy provides us with the soundtrack that all of us sun-worshippers crave… just a perfect mix of soothing synth lines coupled samples that can harken back summer on the cloudiest of days. So slap this mix in the iPod, grab the sunscreen and try not to get a Sunburn.
