[PREMIERE] BONNIE x CLYDE - WHY DO I (ORIGINAL MIX)
PREMIER, Music, Original MixCommentGood morning kids! Ready for this next fantastic premiere? Bonnie & Clyde are a production/vocal duo who are about to make some big moves. Their vocal bass style is laid back but will still get you moving on that dance floor. There is a graceful ease to their songs, and this new track "Why Do I" is soaked in sultry soulful vocals over low end beats - I am feeling this one! They have an extensive resume of supporting some killer acts like Rae Sremmurd, Oliver Heldens, Borgore, and Bro Safari and will be playing mainstage for multiple Life In Color dates in 2016! You can grab this one as a free download HERE!

Not sure how his recent activity slipped under my radar, but holy cow this new single is so so so so good! "Two Hearts" comes from his forthcoming album Infinite Summer out 1/22 via Memphis Industries, and it looks like he's added a couple ladies to the mix!

THE KNOCKS - NEW YORK CITY FT. CAM'RON
Music, Original MixCommentIn 2014 I lived in New York City for 5 weeks, and it was one of the most incredible and emotional times during a very exciting year! I went through some pretty heavy hardships while in the big apple, but on the bright side made some amazing friends, and I felt very much at home. Who knew this Cali girl could do that east coast living like a champ! This new track by my loves The Knocks has so many feels, and I am definitely missing my little Brooklyn apartment on this cold winter morning! "New York City ft. Cam'ron" has that quintessential disco funk vibe that we love from The Knocks, but this one groves so hard on that easy flow tip - I am so in love! Once that groove drops, you can't help but smile - fucking brilliant! There's only one place I wish I could be right now ..... well done boys!

[FEATURE] THE FLAVR BLUE - NO OTHER LOVER
FEATURE, Music, Original Mix1 CommentWRITTEN BY HOLLIS FROM THE FLAVR BLUE
It can be tempting to be elusive as a singer and songwriter, channeling mystery, in hopes of captivating the intrigue of your listener. A step beyond, a degree removed, just out of reach. But as the saying goes, the best writing comes from when you “write what you know.” For the last five years, I've had a love in my life that has believed in me, grounded me, made me laugh, made me think, made me dance, and has proven himself in moments of crisis and action. He was present for the birth of The Flavr Blue, and his support of each of us in the band has been indispensable through our journey. And so, even though it made me blush all the way through writing it, "No Other Lover" is an unabashed ode to my boyfriend (and TFB's BFF) Jeff. The veil is lifted. The real me is revealed. All of the quirks in my voice, my earnest love note to bae. I'll admit, it still makes me blush sometimes.
I love this song beyond its truth in my life because it spotlights our band’s collective love of classic R&B and soul; it hums with vinyl textures with a clean finish, like a whisky served neat. We had Elan Wright and Brian Chinn bless the track with a guitar and bass performance that made the song sparkle, and performing this live with Parker on guitar and Lace on bass now is truly a delight.
Love Notes is all about the love and this song is the realest for me. And, we managed to sneak a Seahawks shout-out in there... ;)
Hope you enjoy "No Other Lover."
<3 Hollis
