Welcome to another fantastic Tuesday of releases with a total gem right here from New York's Ashworth. A newcomer to the BB pages, this bassoonist, vocalist and multi instrumentalist has created a fantasticly upbeat take on Vanessa Carlton's 2000's smash hit. Riding a great line between house and tropical vibes reminiscent of Sam Feldt, which I would highly recommend checking out his awesome Sam Feldt cover of 'Been A While' here. He's sped the pace up over the original with that classic piano line, upbeat strings, jovial melodic synths and smooth rhythm combining to give us a spring board of tropical dance goodness. His vocals put us at ease and turn this track into an instant favorite. We're excited for the many good things ahead for this talented producer. Such a great way to start my day!

FILOUS - FEEL GOOD INC. (GORILLAZ COVER)
Music, CoverCommentThis one flew under my radar, and I feel that is MUST be heard! There is another soundcloud glitch in the world of what is the soundcloud headache - and that is if a track is released on a big label, it's uploaded to soundcloud in the same way as iTunes or Spotify, so when the track goes live it is not re-uploaded to look like a fresh track - looks old. For example, this amazing filous cover of "Feel Good Inc." by Gorillaz dropped two days ago, yet the soundcloud player right now says it's 17 days old! Normally I would have passed putting this track up because it's too old ... but I decided to look closer because I love filous and could not believe I missed this! All these things make life a bit more annoying because I just have to waste time checking when tracks are actually released, but when you have music like this being put into the world I can't complain too much! filous is rad, this NEW cover is rad, and you can grab it from iTunes HERE!
GAZZO - SWEATER WEATHER (THE NEIGHBOURHOOD COVER)
Music, CoverCommentThis was one of my favorite songs for a minute - I was loving The Neighbourhood so much at one time which is why I was happy to see this new cover of "Sweater Weather" from Los Angeles producer Gazzo. He's put his shiny indie dance flavor all over this super viby version with big playfull beats and smooth vocals from Robbie Rosen - it's really great! You guys can grab this as a free download HERE!
[PREMIERE] KISO - I TOOK A PILL IN IBIZA (FEAT KAYLA DIAMOND)
PREMIERE, Music, Cover, RemixCommentWow it's getting to be that time where we're super swamped in all things SXSW, but I gotta take a quick second to support our homie Kiso with his excellent new cover remix of Mike Posner's "I Took A Pill In Ibiza." This remix features incredible vocals by Kayla Diamond and the usual Kiso guitars that envelope the track with finesse. I've also heard that Kiso has some other tracks with Kayla coming down the pipe so be looking out for that! This is definitely gonna be a staple in a bunch of sets! You can nab this as a free download here.
[PREMIERE] PAT LOK - LOVE YOURSELF (JB REMAKE)
Music, PREMIERE, Cover1 CommentWe're showing some serious Canadian love today with this amazing new rework from our boy Pat Lok! Fitting timing too because he's completely revitalized and re-done Justin Beiber's "Love Yourself" on this the Bieb's birthday! But we won't throw too much love JB's way for this one, because Pat didn't use any of JB's vocals instead using the pipes of After Romeo. Sounds pretty similar to me that's why I definitely wanted to point that out. Lets get to the track. The beginning makes me chuckle with a harpsichord intro that sets the fun tone of this cover. We're treated with 90's style drumming reminiscent of name your favorite boy band, and yet Pat keeps it modern with vocal chops, and deep bass. This was a treat for us to premiere and you can catch Pat on tour this spring AND (I'm gonna go ahead and leak this now) you can see him at our #GetBuzzzed Austin showcase March 16-19! If you're heading to Austin for SXSW you can RSVP for our event here.
AMY WINEHOUSE - REHAB (MARK JOHNS COVER PROD. TENNYSON)
Music, CoverCommentI've been trying to get this one up for a few days now - and finally I found 2 seconds to catch up and give some love to our girl Mark Johns! She's been killing it lately - we have been feeling everything she's putting out into the world, and this new cover of break out single "Rehab" from Amy Winehouse is bananas good! I especially love how she states in her SC description that her management is going to be pissed that she dropped this w/o permission - but I say more power to you girl! Drop that shit whenever you feel, we'll back you 100% of the time! Mark Johns puts a soulful sensual spin on this classic track - it's brilliant! Beats by Tennyson + vocals by Mark Johns = perfection! Grab a free download HERE!
GIRAFFAGE - MAKE YOU LOVE ME
Music, Cover, RemixCommentGiraffage was one of my very first shows Beautiful Buzzz did as a new promoter in San Francisco, almost 3 years ago now! It's been so awesome to watch our friend and total legend grow, and on this day of love he's given us something very special. I was trying to stay away from the computer today, but when something is this good .... good to where multiple people sent me texts saying "That new Giraffage tho ....." it cannot simply be overlooked! Many of you youngsters may not know that "Make You Love Me" is a song from one of the most talented female music makers we've known, Bonnie Raitt. Original track dropped in 1991 - and me being the old lady that I am, remember this song and used to sing it at the top of my lungs with my mom! Good times! Giraffage has put this signature future feels R&B sounds all over this beautiful ballad - it's pretty much the best thing I've heard in a minute! Grab this one as a free download HERE and share the love
HEADLINES (DRAKE COVER) (ON PLANETS REMIX)
Music, Cover, RemixCommentOn Planets is like our very own finders/keepers artist! We were fortunate enough to be introduced to him before he started releasing music, and we did somersaults of joy over all this amazing sounds. We've supported every track released, and a few days back On Planets dropped another brilliant gem, remixing a cover of "Headlines" by Drake. Once again he gives us a scrumptious version with his signature sound of syncopated synthed out beats for that future feels vibe! It's just so so so good!

THE WEEKND - THE HILLS FT. AMORY (JR NELSON REMIX)
Music, Cover, RemixCommentHow can we resist another Weeknd cover remix, especially when it's from a talented young producer like JR Nelson! He may be new around these parts, but we are loving his future soul sound and kinda think he's dreamy! His version of "The Hills ft. Amory" is light with synthy beats and airy vocals! There's so much sexiness here too ... so saucy .....so good! Really looking forward to seeing more awesome things from JR Nelson this year! You can swoop this track HERE for free! Get into this kids!
