May marks the two year anniversary of the artist known as Comic Strips and the below EP is his gift to everyone as a celebration. The title track, “Thrill Ride,” is of the 110 BPM family. It starts off with a cinematic tone and builds up to a pretty aggressive drop. Edgy synths battle Hi-Pitched tidbits [...]
Moar backed up posty posts! Craig Williams and PHNM are both buddies of mine and recently got in the studio to make this re-work of Robyn’s “None of Dem.” The result is a bass line driven tune with Robyn’s vocals sounding slightly ominous over the top. It’s something I feel like I should be listening to [...]
A funky take on Lana Del Rey’s track “Born to Die” Kyle Rapps and Diwon turn the succulent robotic original into a rap anthem. Opening up with a punching verse and keeping the music a float, costuming this song in a whole other genre. Turn it up and blast it this track is definitely something [...]
And so begins the boatload of posts so I can begin to catch up with all the ish that’s been sitting in the inbox! Expect an overflow of posts this weekend to make up for it. First up is the The Dirty Tees remix of Wildcat! Wildcat!’s Mr. Quiche. I’m currently collaborating with these guys [...]
The White Panda is a pair of boys with a creative edge. Listening to Bittersweet Donald shows just how crafty they can be when mashing up Mac Miller’s corky “Donald Trump” laced with Verve’s classic “Bittersweet Symphony” conceiving Bittersweet Donald. The name itself is fitting for a track as juicy as this one. It makes you [...]
Greetings and salutations, defenders of the night. Being back in the District of Columbia after a week of trying out for the olympic team of playing hard and working harder that is New York, my spirits are trickling down the drain in the same shape and form as the rainwater outside my window right now. [...]
Chicago’s Team Bayside High have just dropped two heated moombahton bootlegs they have been playing out lately in anticipation of their forthcoming “LoudPack” EP being finished. One a remix of the iconic theme music to the movie “Rocky” that snaps into bleepy moombah at the drop, the other a re-lick of Waka Flaka’s “Round Of [...]
Ron Flieger just dropped one groovy mix of Foster the People’s track Call It What You Want. It’ll have you dancing like a lava lamp. Giving the original track an electric kiss and pushing and pulling the background of already wicked lyrics. Ron Flieger gets crafty in directing your dancing shoes, careful while approaching 2:25 [...]
Ok, so we’re not there yet, but we could be! “Diplo Hates You” is up to play on MTVU and it’s all about those votes! From today to next Monday, visit MTVU’s The Freshmen and vote as many times as you like for the video – that’s it! Hopefully we can get the video on [...]
Patch Werk has taken on Zedd’s “Shotgun”, but with his own twist. He said he’s always wanted to do a version with an actual shotgun sound…so here it is. He recorded his own sample, redummed the track and added his own bass and lead synth. The structure of the track is mostly the same but [...]
