VIBES :: Cosmo's Midnight - Get To Know (Official Video) ft. Winston Surfshirt

Cosmo's Midnight - Get To Know (Official Video) ft. Winston Surfshirt

Not going to lie, today has been an exceptional day. Let's keep the ball rolling with some excellent tunage from Cosmo's Midnight. Cosmo's Midnight hail from Sydney, Australia and the Ozzies are twins. Cosmo and Patrick Liney have been making music for half a decade now. Like some other Ozzies, they are doing it right - must be something in the water there or all that sun. Get To Know features Winston Surfshirt on flow and is just a really good feelgood song.

BUMP N TIME :: Blair Norf - Klymera

Blair Norf

Hailing from Vegas, I don't know much about Blair Norf. I know that he's produced tracks for some pretty prolific producers but feels comfortable in the underground scene. God bless' em. These tracks are tops.

WOOOT NEW SHADOW NEW LABEL :: DJ SHADOW - THE LIQUID AMBER EP

DJ SHADOW - THE LIQUID AMBER EP

DJ Shadow ... the classic samplist and producer / dj is back on the scene with the Liquid Amber EP ... a salvo to his newest LIQUID AMBER label. At the top, is Ghost Town - a haunted hyperactive electronic cut ... so raw it can only be Shadow. Next is Mob, a bouncy rhythm that is sample filled in that Shadow style. Finally, a remix of Six Days - Machinedrum style - large on the high hats.

STILL THE BEST :: Postal Service - Natural Anthem

Postal Service - Natural Anthem

I recently picked up the 10 year addition on Postal Service's Give Up, and having not bought a new CD in 4 years prior, I was quite happy. But, as a comemmorative addition, it was sorely lacking. The first CD was the same as the original, but the second had remixes from John Tejada, Matthew Dear and The Shins ... and it was absolute shite! The only tune that was the best and will ever stand the test of time is of course the most aggro and simple track in the Postal Service repertoire - Natural Anthem, the last song on disc 1. I had such great hopes for everything.

TWERK IT GIRL :: Armin van Buuren - Ping Pong (Dani Deahl Remix)

Armin van Buuren - Ping Pong (Dani Deahl Remix)

Probably my all time favorite female DJ / Artist - Dani Deahl has blown the lid off Armin van Buuren's Ping Pong track. With much praise, not only all over the blogosphere, but also reaching #32 (at the moment) on Hypem's Popular track list and #17 on Beatport's top 100 Hip-Hop (cause they haven't separated out Trap music yet), it seems Dani has hit gold with this one. Of course, she has to have her haters too. At least, one trance purist on twitter said in no uncertain terms - how dare she defile the trance God Armin by creating a trap remix ... to which she replied - it's all about sharing the music to those who might not listen to trance.

Regardless of your BPM persuasion, check out Dani's latest remix ... I think you'll enjoy it.

CRANKKED :: Nadus - Nxwxrk (RL Grime Edit)

Nadus - Nxwxrk (RL Grime Edit)

I apologize. I've been busy with life and neglecting this site for too long. It won't ever seem to die. I keep noticing new people liking our facebook page, so that has to mean something, right? I do wish I had a dedicated staff to manage this site and maybe someday I will, until then it's just me and a few music-lovers who remember that they have this site that they can contribute to.

Today, I want to share another remix from one of my favorite artists - R.L. Grime. You see, I have a weakness for Jamaican samples ("put your back in it...") and just great build-up tunes in general. So enjoy R.L.'s rework of Nadus - Nxwxrk.

DJ Premier will never die, he'll just keep making the best remixes around. The DJ who cut his teeth with Pete Rock and CL Smooth now covers Disclosure's Latch ... what mood altering he pitches, this one is on top!

Dolly Parton - Jolene (Kygo Edit)

Dolly Parton - Jolene (Kygo Edit)

One of the best vocalists, which may or may not be due to her ample bosom is Dolly Parton. Dolly is queen here in Tennessee, with her own theme park in Pigeon Forge - and not without due respect. Dolly has got the skills and guts to make some incredible music. Kyogo has remixed her Jolene into a dance floor banger ... and none too soon!

Parassela - Pariah (Home Alone EP)

Parassela - Untitled A1

We love a good mystery! So who is Parassela? Apparently, Parasella is the studio live project of Blawan and the Analogue Corps. Their first release on their own album has become a collectors item in less than 40 days. Now the project lands on Restoration, featuring Pariah on track A1, a crossover monster of techno and garage. There's so much distortion, it makes my defibrillator, skip a beat or two.

Tensnake - No Relief (feat. Fiora) (free download)

Tensnake - No Relief (feat. Fiora)

There must be something in the German water that makes such good techno artists. Take Tensnake a.k.a. Marco Niemerski for example. Everything he touches turns to gold and his latest track - No Relief (featuring Fiora) is no exception. The vibe is evocative of a Booka Shade song - and I mean that in the best possible way. The vocals are felt with true conviction and the melody will echo through your domepiece forever! Why is Tensnake giving this track away for free? I don't know, but am not going to complain.

Luke Million - Midnight (GRUM Remix)

Luke Million - Midnight (GRUM Remix)

GRUM a.k.a. Graeme Sheperd is back! Not that he ever really left, but it's been some time since we've heard new material. With this remix of Luke Million's Midnight, GRUM brings that trademark synth bassline upon which he made his mark.

Gnarls Barkley - Crazy (TEEMID & Joie Tan Cover)

Gnarls Barkley - Crazy (TEEMID & Joie Tan Cover)

There was something so pleasant about that place ... ya know, that place where all the incredible covers come from. Today, we have TEEMID and Joie Tan covering one of the top tracks of the 2000's - Gnarls Barkley's Crazy. On this one, they strip back all the sanity and go straight for the gut. What's left is a haunting rendition that will make you lose your mind!

Daft Punk - Instant Crush ft. Julian Casablancas

Daft Punk - Instant Crush ft. Julian Casablancas

Daft Punk have just released the video for their track Instant Crush featuring Strokes lead singer Julian Casablancas. The video and song frame up a perfect little love ditty done Daft Punk style. Julian, who was specifically chosen for his former work with the Strokes, helped Daft Punk bring this song to fruition from a demo track that they had lying around.

Todd Terje - Spiral

Wake up ... I said WAKE UP!!! It's Thursday (is it?!?!) morning and time for a little Terje in your cup. Yes, Todd's got the good to get you up and running this morning. Spiral is a build-up of synthy proportions ... great for watching the sun come up!

HIDDEN TREASURE :: Symphony Hall - Metal Arrives

Symphony Hall - Metal Arrives

I devour music ... yes I eat and eat and eat - I am an addict. It's all an attempt to find the best tracks out there. It does pay off, however. Symphony Hall is a one time collaboration between Riton and Canblaster - brought about through Surkin's Marble Music label. This bipolar gem has got it all - hard electro beats + oh so groovy piano chords and female vocals. It's a musical orgasm!
