ROBOKID - 23

I pretty much have a crush on every Moving Castle artist - they are all super babes and so talented! This one here tho, OMG swoon Robokid is so dreamy .... I feel all girly and stuff (batting eyelashes). We got to do some hangs when he played our SXSW show in March, and I kinda definitely swooned a little - but I am used to it I guess, I live my life surrounded by dreamy boys! But let's focus OK - because the music is fucking amazing and really what's important here! Just now Robokid dropped a new original that is equally as dreamy with all the feels - and if you have been watching the Coachella live stream "23" is the theme song, how cool is that!!  You can swoop this one from iTunes HERE!

MAGGIE LINDEMANN - THINGS (TAYLOR WISE REMIX)

Taylor Wise has been on fire recently skyrocketing to the top of the hypem charts with his "Chocolate" and "September" remixes. We had the ultimate pleasuring of premiering his Smallpools "Dreaming" Remix back in February that also reached #1. Well he's back with another tropical themed rework of Maggie Lindemann's incredible single "Things." The record starts quick with bobbing synth stabs and the original's infectious background vocal arpeggio. Not really sure how to describe that vocal line but you get what I'm saying ha ha. Taylor has a wonderful way of combining the synth work into his energetic rhythm section so adeptly that it grooves smoother than silk. By the drop we're treated to a skillfully done vocal chop on top of the moving synth lines that make the record equal parts exciting yet also very relaxing. Add another great remix to his already stacked catalogue. Nab this as a free download here. 

(LOSS OF A LEGEND) PRINCE - STARE

While posting on twitter for our latest premiere, I saw the internet bursting over this sad news. It was literally two weeks ago at brunch after our Goldroom show at Mezzanine, Erin and I were talking about the phenomenon that is Prince, and the impact he's had on the industry. Admittedly I didn't fully appreciate the entire depth his incredible catalogue, so I've been reaching deeper into his music since then. To have this terrible news happen now is both extra sad and fitting. While I could post any number of his hits, "Kiss," "Purple Rain," "Little Red Corvette," "Let's Go Crazy," "When Doves Cry," "I Wanna Be Your Lover" I could go on and on. However I thought it fitting that because we're a new music blog I should post something from his most recent, final and 39th studio album "HITnRUN Phase Two," which was released just this last December. 

"Stare" is a perfect harmony of his unfathomable presence in pop, yet also indicative of his mastery of so many other genres namely Funk, Dance, R&B and Rock. "Stare" is a fun, eclectic and of course sexy record featuring an incredible slap bass line, funky guitar and horns. While "Stare" will undoubtedly be overshadowed by many of the other classic tunes from his legacy, I wanted to support a record that I love and one you most likely will not be hearing too much about in the wake of his death. R.I.P.

[PREMIERE] SELVA - STRUCK (FT. LUKE CUSATO)

Let us start your Thursday with an ice cold chiller of a record from Australia's Selva. A raw and emotional tune, Selva teamed up with Luke Cusato for an incredible vocal performance on this beautifully haunting tune. Selva's jazzy piano chords fit perfectly with the light rhythm and esoteric synth work escorted by killer background vocals that can send shivers down your spine. By the bridge the record picks it up with bright saw synths and a melodic arp that takes us through to the end. You can nab this courtesy of Heroic Recordings on all digital retailers here. 

DZEKO & TORRES - HOME FEAT. ALEX JOSEPH (LOUD LUXURY REMIX)

Eric here, delivering your daily dose of deepness! God I'm such an alliteration nerd, but anyways sink your teeth into this tasty jam from Toronto's Loud Luxury. Remixing Dzeko & Torres's smashing single "Home" this record is classy with house piano stabs, spritely synth melodies, and of course that dub a wub deep house bass that locks in the instrumental beneath Alex Joseph's triumphant vocals. This record certainly lives up to their name, rather loud and luxurious in such a good way oh and did we mention it's a free download? Oh yeah baby nab that here.

WAFIA - HEARTBURN (FELIX CARTAL REMIX)

I don't want this one to get lost in the mix - it gives me the serious warm and fuzzies and I think it's can't be looked over! We only put up 3 to 5 songs a day on BB - so we are super selective about what goes up and from time to time something we love does not make it to our pages simply because there is no room! However, last week Felix Cartal dropped this amazing remix of "Heartburn" by Future Classic songstress Wafia and I can't let it go! Filled with bouncy disco beats over a bit of future house feels, Felix Cartal hit this one out of the park!  It's already hit #1 on HypeM - but I don't care - I just love it! Get into this one kids! 

FLOSSTRADAMUS - ROLL UP (BAAUER REMIX) [INFUEZ RE - ROLL]

I didn't go to Coachella - but I happen to watch the live stream for Baauer which was pretty awesome - and I was lucky enough to hear him drop this delicious track mid set! I've been kinda bananas over Brooklyn based producer Infuze for a minute now, and I am super bummed I missed him in SF on the Brillz tour - I blame Prince Fox for keeping me out too late the night before - but I have a feeling our paths will cross ways very soon! This morning Infuze drops his re-roll of Baauer's remix of "Roll Up" by Flosstradamus.  It's siiick! I love some deep bass in my face in the mornings! Grab yourself a free download HERE! 

Y2K & LIL AARON - I KNOW FT. POLLARI & JOSH PAN

This is the perfect way to start the second 1/2 of the day!  I've been on the grind today since 6:30am, and I do it for guys like these who are making rad music that needs to get into the world! My little angels Y2K and Lil Aaron are back at it again, dropping this new siiiick track "I Know Ft. Pollàri & Josh Pan" - get ready for some serious low end for your afternoon delight! You can grab a free download HERE!

NATTY REEVES - PARIS (PLYMOUTH REMIX)

Let us take a second to remove you from your regularly scheduled programming to drop some FIRE nu-disco from newcomer Plymouth. I heard this record late last night while doing laundry ha ha. As the track played on, the laundromat around me quickly faded away into a beautiful French spring evening. I slowly strolled down the river Seine admiring the romance and perfection of the gorgeous Parisian skyline. If you've had the luxury of visiting that amazing city, hit play and join me there. I have to give a bunch of kudos to Natty Reeves for inciting this emotion with his record, but also to Plymouth for giving it a nice spark.
