Normally I would not touch a cover of Flume, especially this song because it's so perfect -- how could anyone else possibly bring something new to the table. But ..... I should have known that the guy to pull it off would be Crywolf! This is kind of amazing and I'm swooning! Crywolf has that effect over me all the time - his angelic voice makes me swoon like a little girl .... oh boys! His cover of "Never Be Like You" is future electro pop perfection, and the best part is that you can grab a free download HERE!

OFELIA K - BAD BOYS
Music, Original MixCommentOfelia K has just the most mesmerizing, mellifluous, and soothing voice. I could insert any number of flattering adjectives, but it's true! She's given us an endearing tune with "Bad Boys" light guitar and rhythm fill out the instrumental behind her well constructed lyricism explaining her constant dilemma with all these bad boys luring her close and holding her underwater. The record is a slow build eventually ramping up to be filled out with numerous background vocal parts and synth work before slowing back down again for the ending. This is a fantastic follow up to her incredible 'Plastic Flowers' EP and single "Cinco."
WINGTIP - EVENTUALLY
Music, Original MixCommentThe past few days have been insanely busy and I've been having a hard time getting to all the things (Eric has been MIA) so I am on this one woman show tip. We're industry, we're making moves, we have no time to ourselves, and we work around the clock .... and my dog is pissed that I have not been paying enough attention to him ... and he's really the most important in life. If you feel anything like me right now and you are looking for a new electro dance track with chill vibes, then "Eventually" by New York producer Wingtip is just what we need. This is one of those tracks where one word says it all, with a synthy dance groove and beautiful airy vocals it will make any day seem better! You can grab this as a free download HERE!
[PREMIERE] SELVA - STRUCK (FT. LUKE CUSATO)
Music, Original MixCommentLet 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.
CHET PORTER - TBH ILY (KIDSWASTE REMIX)
Music, RemixCommentTBH - I am super slammed today with all the things and will only have a few minutes to bring you some new tracks! So much came out today, I'll definitely have to play catch up over the weekend when everyone is at Coachella! For those of you not heading out to the desert this weekend I promise to keep you busy with lots of great music - who needs Coachella anyway! Here's a dreamy track from young Kidswaste - he flipped "tbh ily" by Chet Porter into fun and bouncy laid back jam that I have had on repeat for the last hour! Dropped today via our besties at Moving Castle - and you can grab a free download HERE!
LES GORDON - ATLAS (KIDSWASTE REMIX)
Music, RemixCommentTo say I have been busy has been an understatement! It's the after SXSW blues and I am so buried in work that I can't seem to get anything done! Like, I've been trying to talk about this new Kidswaste remix of "Atlas" by Les Gordon for days, but I've just not had a moment. This young producer has spread his deep chill future beats vibes all over this track, and it's making me flow into my afternoon with carefree ease! Kidswaste is rad - you guys should get into this!
DVBBS & SHAUN FRANK - LA LA LAND FEAT. DELANEY JANE
Music, Original MixCommentDVBSS has come together with the top line aces Shaun Frank and Delaney Jane for a chiller indie dance record that has a ridiculously catchy hook in "La La Land." The track starts minimally with light piano work, pads and vocals eventually rising to a bobbing chorus with vocal splices, energetic drumming and melodic synth stabs. Not the typical banger you'd expect from a collaboration such as this, but the track hits a more sentimental tone accented by Delaney's always gorgeous pipes. Out courtesy of Spinnin' Records you can nab this track on digital retailers here.
TRACE - HONEY
Music, Original MixCommentHappy hump day! Following up on the excellent release of our next BuzzzMix Vol 24 by Palastic, I'm going to chill you back down with a really endearing track by LA newcomer Trace. With this only her second release she's found a longing sound that drowns you in mellifluous waterfalls of ambiance and space. Her voice wraps around minimalistic beats with reverb piano combining into a track that is really as sweet as "Honey." We expect lots more good to come from this camp, better get on the bandwagon now! You can nab this on iTunes here.
