Bangkok based Juany Bravo and DC residing Julius Jetson just dropped a funky, G House dance floor shaker through label Jump To This.

AUTOGRAF - EPISODE

Ahhhhhh my sweet boys are back once again with another fantastic track! Autograf are so on point with all things they put into the world, and "Episode" is just another example of their exuberant talent that can't be touched.  This one has a deep bass groove that any future pop enthusiast will love! They are showing us their darker sexier side, I'm getting all the feels! We just had Autograf play their live set in San Francisco this fall and holy mac - they are next level! You can grab this as a free download HERE - you're welcome!  

BIG WILD - INVINCIBLE (FT. IDA KAWK)(MANILA KILLA REMIX)

So many of us are looking forward to 2016 being over! However, when this one popped up in my inbox titled "final Manila Killa track of the year" I did feel a little sad. Manilla Killa had a great year, and this yung Moving Castle legend staked his claim in the ever growing future sounds scene, as well as forever in our hearts! I really hope you all have enjoyed listening to me gush over Manila Killa for the past year, and I am psyched he is closing out 2016 with this brilliant remix of "Invincible ft. ida kawk" by Big Wild because it's yummy. Get into this one kids!  

Disclosure: Manila Killa is promoted by Beautiful Buzzz writers Alli Lindsey + Lindsey Oh

KONSTANTIN - RELEASE YOURSELF (FEAT. AYLA SHATZ) [YE. RMX]

After so many floor shakin tracks, producer ye. switches it up with a laid back remix of Konstantin's "Release Yourself" ft Ayla Shatz. In the past few months ye. has distinguished himself as one of the more notable new producers in the buildup to 2017, and this latest remix keeps the course while continuing to diversify his discography along the way. Prolific in his releases, but always just diverse enough to stay fresh, ye. is one of those artists everyone should be listening to, so make sure to check out what else he has out. You can listen to more from Konstantin as well here.

CLANS - PRAYERS

The cloudy/winter weather is starting to get to my mood. I find myself gravitating to folkier acoustic sounds around this time of year, and Clans' new tune is exactly the ticket. This track is a little different than what we normally post, but Clans has done a great job with this one and deserves some support. We posted his tune "Alibi" a while back and that sweet tune has gone on to garner 150k plays and was definitely a breakout. Fast forward to "Prayers" he's continuing down a folkier road with beautiful guitars, ukulele and harmonica. This tune has been garnering big support on Spotify, and is one you should definitely throw on snuggled under a big blanket warming by the fire this holiday season.    

MONTE BOOKER & NAJI - MONA LISA

Soulection just released a new track from Monte Booker & Naji and it lives up to everything I have come to expect from all three. Monte Booker's production on the track personifies that meandering, easy going vibe that puts the soul at ease, no pun intended. Throw Naji's soulful vocals on top and you got a track to fall in love with someone to. Stream/purchase this track here.

[PREMIERE] YOKE LORE - HOLD ME DOWN (GILLIGAN MOSS REMIX)

I first noticed Yoke Lore on the upper ranks of the Hype Machine charts earlier this year and was instantly entranced with the honesty and sincerity of the music. Part indie folk, part dream pop, and part experimental electronic, it’s reminiscent of legend-caliber acts like The Shins and M83, but is also uniquely its own. The project is the new musical venture of Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Adrian Galvin, previously of Yellerkin and Walk the Moon. I was lucky enough to catch a live set last month in Hollywood at School Night, and let me tell you, he did not disappoint!

I’m honored today to premiere the first remix of a Yoke Lore track, coming in the form of an unconventional, playful, house-influenced edit from Chicago-born, Brooklyn-based producers Gilligan Moss. Moss’ inimitable production tendencies have led to impressive remixes for artists such as Sia and Glass Animals and a 2015 EP of original music called Ceremonial with over a millions listens on Spotify.

Their envisioning of “Hold Me Down” begins almost like a symphony, then the isolated vocals make an entrance joined by a delicate synth line, and not until almost a minute in do we start to get any percussion. The beat is somewhat familiar indie-dance but is scattered with an array of flittering flourishes that lead to listener down an unexpected path. Coupled with Galvin’s hypnotic vocal melodies, it’s easy to get lost in — the perfect tune for a mid-December morning.

Catch Yoke Lore on tour now supporting Handsome Ghost, remaining dates below:

12/14 Big Room Bar Columbus, OH (tickets)
12/15 Cattivo Pittsburgh, PA (tickets)
12/16 Beachland Tavern Cleveland, OH (tickets)
12/17 Schuba's Chicago, IL (tickets)

PELLICAN CHILD - TURN ME DOWN

Louis The Child + Pell = Pellican Child. This one is very fitting considering I am still battling a hangover from Wednesday night's Louis The Child after party we threw .... ouch! What a year for my bb boys - the "2016 worst year ever" curse seems to have passed up these yung legends - Louis The Child have absolutely crushed. This new project with experimental soul artist Pell is something pretty special, mixing the easy going dance vibes and delicious R&B hip-hop vocals. Feels! This is their first release, and from what I am told we are gonna get more goodies in the new year!  

GOLDEN COAST - MAKE YA MOVE + GOLDEN COAST EP

Well it's finally arrived. I think we've posted damn near every single from Golden Coast's amazing debut 'Golden Coast EP' and today I'm totally thrilled to bring you the last single "Make Ya Move." A sheer delight to listen to, the duo has channeled their west coast vibes into a perfect distillation of pop indie rock in this tune. I know it's December, but this new single instantly takes me away into the warm green re-birth of spring driving down the best coast with the top down. According to the guys: "Make Ya Move was our attempt to kind of throw off some of the traditional song-y rules and do something just purely fun.  Kind of tried to channel our inner Macklemore or Bruno and talk a little over-confident swagger.  Think it’s our favorite dance tune to date." I couldn't agree more, let the head bobbing, toe tapping, throw my hands up dancing begin, and just in time for the weekend! If you're feeling this tune, like I know you will, go ahead and throw on their entire EP it's well worth the ride.
