It's Sunday folks. We're prepping for Monday, we're getting work done, we're skypeing the parents, we're going to farmer's markets?? In the spirit of branching out with other EDM genres in my posts, I have a six pack of tracks for you today and they're pretty much all different bpms for ya. I'll get right to it with the newest 1:40 of what's to come from this banger by my favorite 6'10" Netherlander, Afrojack. Releasing July 16th! Enjoy the music guys. -Ted Townsend
Heavily supported by David Guetta and in this case re-worked by him. Daddy's Groove with a crazy sounding song, "Turn the Lights Down."
Michael Woods chose the title he liked best "IndepenDANCE" and gave it away as a freebie. He's British and released a song on the 4th of July... damn right this better be free :).
Who doesn't like when Hard Rock Sofa & Swanky Tunes have sex? Uhh I mean make music. This is a banger, enjoy "Here We Go."
I'm a big fan of Noisa they produce with one hell of a crisp sound. They've lately been making many a track for video games. Check it this cool one:
Some tech house for ya ;) heavil supported by Sebastien Leger, Joachim Pastor with his most recent single "Farouest."
Short & sweet for this week's Funky Friday edition. Four funky tracks to keep you going throughout the weekend. Check 'em out, I'll let the music do the talking. Enjoy the weekend!
It might sound repetitive, but this article sheds some light on the state of EDM festivals and how it will affect YOUR experience in the future.
This week's mixtape/podcast serves up some house music on a silver platter by the infamous duo, Prok & Fitch. Ever since their partnership started 6 years ago, their tracks and remixes have been supported from the likes of Carl Cox all the way to Swedish House Mafia. They have carried themselves to the top with their skills in producing quality house music and have toured the globe from end to the other. With this mixtape, expect a groovy, melodic journey with house music. Time to kick back and relax, enjoy the summer.
Imagine attending one of Gatsby's fine parties out on his West Egg estate. Now imagine adding strobes, colorful lights and disco balls. That's where find the genre of electro swing. A movement centered in France, electro swing takes '20's swing music and seamlessly mixes it with house beats to create a magical feel. So sit back, and immerse yourself in a time of luxury, extravagance and fun:
Diving boards, flips and fireworks can be very distracting.
So please.
Beat that beat up.
Otto Knows destroys Dada Life's Original kick out the epic, creating a super fresh progressive masterpiece. I haven't heard a build up like this in a long time.
What better way to celebrate than to pull out the big boy speakers and do what we do.
Celebrate life liberty and the pursuit of immoral pleasure.
Lets dance...and hunt down terrorists.
David Guetta and Daddys Groove Bring in the Electro Fire with this new track that was just released today. Don't go trying to take terrorists out just yet.
Extra extra credit: If you are heading anywhere for the 4th, and you're not behaving like these fellows (emphasis on the drinking of PBR and Buds), then you are just not a true American:
I've got a handful of great tracks for you guys today. All 2012 summer tracks, minus a classic tune for you at the end. Summer sounds coming left and right; during a season where most DJs are usually in Ibiza for the entire summer playing on a nightly basis it's been amazing to hear about all the shows in North America. More and more weekend festivals, North American tours, college shows - America seems to be as interested in house music as Europe. Now if only we could drop the "Must - be - drugged - dubstep" stereotype of a fan, we as a country might seem a bit more cleaned up... hmm I'll have to continue spreading the sounds of house music in attempts to keep people dancing without the substance. Enjoy guys, some new Chris Lake & John Dahlback, Fedde Le Grand & Nicky Romero (unreleased), Michael Woods, some Flamingo chaps and an oh so sweet tune for you at the end!
My second favorite Dj/Producer on the planet has dropped another banger. And he's teamed up with the legendary John Dahlback to do so. This is such an interesting tune it's not more Chris Lake and it's not more Dahlback, in fact it didn't strike me as either of them. However, it had me clicking replay. Enjoy "I Saw This Before."
Dutch powerhouses Nicky Romero & Fedde le Grand have teamed up to make this track "Sparks" that I guess was debuted during EDC Las Vegas; however, only in the last couple weeks has this tune has been making quite some noise. In my opinion, a collaboration that needed to happen quite some time ago. Check it out:
Michael Heuser the German producer who goes by the name Gum Me, has released his newest single on Flamingo Records, who by the way happens to be one of the best labels in house music today. They pride themselves on putting out singles by highly talented house producers that can consistently put forth a job well done. I'm a fan, hope you like it, here's "Sweaty Shirts."
A little fun for you readers on this one - head on over to Michael Woods' facebook wall. He has put out a demo for his newest track and has asked his fans to come up with a name for it. It's going to be released on the 4th of July (but don't let that influence your title... remember Woods is a Brit!) As my girlfriend pointed out it sounds very familiar to the classic Reel 2 Real track "I Like to Move It" Enjoy.
Another massive tune, "Blackout" being released on Flamingo Recordings as well! These guys know how to put it down. Enough said. Check out the newest track made by Franky Rizardo & Roul Doors!
Well I sure hope you've enjoyed this bundle of tracks. I'm a fan of finishing my posts with a classic and memorable tune. The famous Mark Knight and the famous Tiesto... remember this one? Haha what a funny music video too, I'd look that up if I were you. Here's "Beautiful World" ft. Dino.
