CRUELS - TOP 5 SUMMER JAMS

It's about time the whole world meets Cruels! I've known this legend for years from other projects he's worked on, and I have to say his latest reincarnation into Cruels just might be my favorite! I've always had mad respect tho, his bay area band was quite popular and I have even been known to say, "that guy is the real genius" - which he probably doesn't know about, but now I guess I've just given away all my secrets! The proof is right here kids - his debut track "Give It Up ft. Salt Ashes" is pretty amazing, a perfect combination of indie house beats with some dance pop feels - it's very chic! He also just told me about some very exciting future tracks featuring some pretty amazing artists we all know and love, so better keep your eyes and ears on this one! I asked Crules to share his Top 5 Summer Jams which includes his track, well done sir! Listen and love! 

Cruels - Give It Up ft. Salt Ashes
I basically picked this one because, A. It's my first release as a solo artist and B. I like it. :)  Salt Ashes was amazing to work with and she's quite the gift of the track. Two parts tropical house, One part UK garage.

Ren Phillips - Comfort In Your Company ft. Cameron Bloomfield
Love when someone properly chops a vocal sample. This beat has a very "Peaches N' Cream" 1996 shuffle that I love that morphs into an almost Reggaeton/Garage cadence. Also, Cameron Bloomfields voice will make you melt into a steaming puddle.

DIGY - Tragedy ft. KIRSCH
This is some smooth dark RnB. It's perfect example of how it should be done. Slow and pumping. Distant pig-squeel guitars. Take note Weeknd.

Archy Stranger - Fundamentalism
I just heard this the other day and was taken back how lovely the vocals are and how well a vocal sample for the chorus hits. Heavy bruhhhh.

Brayton Bowman - Real
This song is almost like if Michael Buble did new modern music with Cashmere Cat.  I love it's throttle-voiced, snare upbeat, fast hi hat shuffles. The vocal edited is great and sits nicely without getting too annoying. Turn this jam on when you wanna clean your house in UK style.

MØ - KAMIKAZE

MØ + Diplo - they do it again! what a great combination! MØ released her new single "Kamikaze" that she and Diplo worked on together - and yea, of course it's great! Do you remember "Lean On" from Major Lazer?  I mean ...... This new track is out everywhere, and you can swoop it on iTunes HERE! Enjoy!

CASHMERE CAT - FOREVER 1 (HUDSON MOHAWKE COVER)

Our favorite little kitty has blessed the electronic music community today by releasing this beautiful gem. Cashmere Cat has been opening his sets over the past year with a cover he did of "Forever 1" by Hudson Mohawke! So good! It was this time last year when I saw Cashmere Cat do a secret set at the CMJ Future Classic Showcase in NY - and there were like 20 people there - how does that even happen? Everyone chill out and enjoy this one! 

BEN PHIPPS - SLEEP ALONE FT. ASHE

Every now and then I open an email that on a normal day I would most likely delete - it's true that I don't listen to every track that is submitted to me, but let's face the facts - I am just one girl with a deep passion and two full time jobs. Opening every email and spending the time to listen to every track is impossible. But on days like today, where I have found just a few extra minutes between sending emails, phone calls with agents, artwork, and booking shows, I open one of these submissions and hope I find a diamond in the rough! Happened! Ben Phipps is a deep house producer from Sweden and he's caught my attention with his new tack "Sleep Alone ft. Ashe." This is tropical dance house deliciousness - w/o out the sax solo (thanks for that)! And hello .... he's pretty dreamy - what a babe! Ben Phipps is a cool new find, I'll be keeping my ear on this one! Grab a free download HERE! 

BROLIN - KINGSTON

This year we invited Brolin to be part of our SXSW show in Austin, and not gonna lie .... he was at the top of our "most excited to see" list from the confirmed line-up! Rightly so! This UK singer/songwriter/producer makes some beautiful music, making our hearts melt and minds swoon. Brolin has released a new single called "Kingston" which comes from his forthcoming album The Delta out October 30. This track reflects the chill synthy dance vibes we have come to love with Brolin, everything he creates is brilliant! You can pre-order his album HERE! Listen and love!

GOLDEN COAST - HIGH NOON GETAWAY

It's electro indie pop hour over here in the Beautiful Buzzz office - and we are feeling this new track from Los Angeles duo Golden Coast. These fresh faces have been bouncing around our radar over the past year, and we've also seen them west coast touring ... starting to live the dream! They have just put a new single into the world that is full of everything that is good in the world of electro pop vibes - catchy hooks with dreamy vocals and synthed out melodies - we love it! Let them take you to that secret place.

JACKLNDN - NEVERMIND

Today or bestie JackLNDN dropped a new original track that we are totally psyched on! This past year we have had some great hangs with this legend, from festivals to boat parties to delayed flights and lots of laughs in hotel room gatherings ... JackLNDN is the kind of guy you just want to be around all the time, he's everyones best mate! His latest "Nevermind" has that distinct soulful funky sound that we know and love so well, and he's providing the vocals on this one! Brilliant! We'll be hosting JackLNDN one last time this year on December 17th with Sam Sparro in Los Angeles - definitely don't want to miss this one! Grab tickets HERE! 

GIBBZ - I FOUND YOU (HALOGEN REMIX)

I always have the best day when I get to post about these legends; they bring such a great vibe in everything they do and THIS new remix is proof enough! Atlanta boys Halogen slay with their version of "I Found You" by Gibbz, it's time to turn up! This one's straight dance floor heat with a slight tease of funky feels provided in Gibbz's vocals! Dope! Grab this track as a free download HERE! 

GRYN - WHAT U WANT (ORIGINAL MIX)

The smiley duo in GRYN are back with a record that's forging a new path for one of our favorite SoCal up-and-comers. I remember talking to them recently about working toward a new musical direction and I'm super stoked for the results! It's hard to pinpoint exactly what genre this falls under, but I'm calling it Funky Future Tropical Bass House. I know that seems all encompassing, but hit play and see what I mean. The boys have craftfully blended vocal chops, complex drum patterns, deep funky bass and a tropical oriented soundscape that results in a track that is truly unique and refreshing. Also special late Happy Birthday to Ethan who I know was celebrating over the weekend. Keep it coming boys! Can't wait to hear what's coming up next.
