FLUME - HEATER

In Baseball terms, a heater is described as the fastest pitch that a pitcher has to offer. A fastball so fast that the batter cannot catch up, it is a heater. Flume has just released “Heater” and we were definitely blown away at how good  this song is. We cannot keep up with it, it is way too fast, we have to put it on replay just so that we know what epicness we just listened to. This is definitely Flume’s best pitch he has to offer right now and I would not be surprised if “Heater" climbs up the charts just as fast as this song hit us. The bass is so heavy and the synth waves are so distinct that you cannot help but turn your head to catch your breath as the “Heater” is upon you taking your breath away. Flume, you are now officially our Ace in the Hole, our MVP, “Heater” is striking us as the next great track and all we can do is congratulate Flume for this epic home run of a song. Step up to the plate if you dare and listen to “Heater” by Flume.

SAN HOLO - LIGHT

The weekend is here and we need a new craze. San Holo has just released a dope new track “Light”. Perfect for a weekend, especially with the holiday season arriving with the passing of Thanksgiving. “Light” provides the perfect mood during a December that is sure to get insane with holiday shopping, latte sipping, and ice skating. San Holo gives us the light to our ears that will provide you with that theme song you picture when you see beautiful things around you. San Holo keeps it very simple and yet it is the simple things that really make the difference. Not only in music but in many aspects of our lives. Do yourself a favor and indulge in this new hit from San Holo that will have you chasing the “Light”. Finally, an instance where going towards the light is not necessarily a bad thing. Enjoy.

KSHMR - CREEP (RADIOHEAD COVER)

"Creep” is a classic 90’s song from Radiohead that spoke about all the imperfections we have as humans and how we wish we can change them. The mood  of the classic song is depressing to say the least, which is why we have to truly admire KSHMR for having the ability to turn this trackinto an upbeat, fun song. KSHMR does a phenomenal job in the musical variety. The beginning of the song starts with a ukulele that makes you think it will keep the island vibe, but then we hear an electric guitar come in pretty strong. Now we are led to believe that it has the ability to be an alternative song. KSHMR dupes us again and brings on some synthesizers with a hip-hop beat to make you dance to “Creep (cover)”. Astounding the abilities KSHMR poses to twist and manipulate such a song to whatever genre it pleases. It is a journey of multiple paths that KSHMR does not allow you to truly hold onto by changing it so often but in the end, we are thankful for such a magnificent, surreal path.

MILKY CHANCE - COCOON

Milky Chance is sure taking the Indie world by storm lately and they really feel like they are about to blossom into the spotlight. You may think that this was a very clever metaphor, yes, you’re right. Milky Chance has just released their newest hit “Cocoon” and it is already catching fire. “Cocoon” can be seen as their track that can propel them to stardom as a caterpillar breaks free from their Cocoon to blossom into a breathtakingly beautiful butterfly. They are very musically talented and we know that Milky Chance can really rock harder than most, but we see them step outside their alternative niche and take Indie by storm with good ol’ acoustics and harmonies. They keep it simple with the rhythmic guitar chord and a simple drum step to reel us in. The guitar playing is plucked beautifully to accent the soul of the music. You can swoop his track HERE!

THE CHAINSMOKERS - ALL WE KNOW FT. PHOEBE RYAN (SAID THE SKY REMIX)

Said The Sky has done it again! The Denver-based producer has just blessed us with his rework of The Chainsmokers' "All We Know" and to call it a must-hear would be an understatement. Recognizably Said The Sky in style, the remix is melodic, bubbly and feel good all the way through. Having just released a couple of mega-collaborations with 3LAU, Seven Lions and Illenium, all eyes have been on the rising producer to follow up with a great tune - and this one has more than exceeded my expectations. Grab a free download HERE and show your friends, they deserve the midweek pick-me-up. 

KICK THE HABIT - ALONE

All it takes is one riff to get you hooked and propel a song to become a timeless classic. Think of great bands of the past and today, great riffs paved the way for them to become stars in their own right. For example:Led Zeppelin’s iconic riff in Whole Lotta Love, Jimi Hendrix with Purple Haze, or current bands like Arctic Monkeys with Do I Wanna Know and The Strokes with Reptilia. The newest band on the horizon is Kick The Habit releasing their newest hit single “Alone”, which you may not be surprised when I say, has an extremely catchy riff. “Alone” dips in very different genres from Alternative Indie to Electronica and I have to say that I am all for it. You get the best of both worlds even if you never even been to the other world because Kick The Habit blends both genres so well.

FANCY CARS - SET ME ON FIRE FT. BRANDON HALL

Oh Fancy Cars, you stand alone at the peak of the highest mountain with “Set Me On Fire”. Lyrics like “My heart is immortal/my body a flower in snow” just goes to show us Fancy Cars only makes music that is like no other and that can stand the test of time. Beautiful lyrics paired with the impeccable voice of Brandon Hall, we see “Set Me On Fire” stay true to future bass yet stand to dive into Indie Pop, which I feel is a perfect mix to utilize the great talent of Brandon Hall. I sure hope this is a pair that will continue to collaborate in the future. 

SOLARSUIT - JUST FOR THE THRILL

Christopher Walken provided such an iconic moment portraying Bruce Dickinson during a skit in Saturday Night Live with just 5 words: I gotta have more cowbell! I want it to be widely-known today that I am proclaiming “I gotta have more keyboards!” Solarsuit is newest band that coming in with full steam as they have the makings of the next great band. One, of course, is being that they have a keyboardist that really knows how to wail on the keyboard. Two, their newest track “Just for the Thrills” just came out just days ago and it really rocks on. It is a modernized “New Wave” sound that is surely to change the music scene with their range of instruments and vocals. As the song says in its title, give Solarsuit a listen below “Just for the Thrills.

MARSHMELLO - RITUAL FT. WARBEL

Marshmello sure knows how to build the anticipation and keep us at the edge of our seats. There have been many rumors on when his new hit “Rituals (feat. Wrabel)” would finally drop, even teasing us with a preview just a couple of days ago. “Rituals (feat. Wrabel)” finally has dropped and we were not disappointed. This has instantly become my favorite song of the season and I just cannot help dancing every time I put it on. The vocals being provided by the amazing Wrabel himself, I find myself singing along while I do the robot dance to this beat. On Twitter, Marshmello has said that this was “his favorite song he’s ever made” and I cannot help but feel happy inside that the music I love was created with an artist having fun with his love for music. Join in on the fun with Marshmello and I by giving it a listen!
