BIG GIGANTIC - THE LITTLE THINGS (KASBO REMIX)

Music, RemixNathan ThostComment

Just in time for his upcoming show with Big Gigantic, Marshmello and Illenium at Red Rocks, Sweden's Carl Garsbo aka Kasbo has dropped a riveting remix of Big Gigantic's "The Little Things". The remix mellows out the track, setting a moodier backdrop for Angela McCluskey's vocals. This is just the kind of wavy, emotion driving track one could image playing as the sun sets behind the beautiful Rocky Mountain backdrop at Red Rocks this weekend. It's not hard to imagine seeing this guy headlining his own shows there in the near future. Grab a free download HERE!

STÖÖKI SOUND - ENDZ

Music, Original MixEricComment

Stööki Sound rocked our Get Buzzzed SXSW showcase last March with their signature heavy beats. I was soo completely amped after the show I had to go backstage and take a pickle back shot with Erin lol good times! Fast forward six months Stööki is back with an eclectic, but hype trap tune that crushes with deep intensity. According to DJ Lukey and Jelacee, “Endz is the first single off of our Ösiris EP. It’s a brooding instrumental, that captures the dark and tense atmosphere of the area of London in which we grew up. Endz will take you on a musical journey through the streets of London.” The single also marks the launch of their Ö.N.E Worldwide label and the kickoff of their Fall North American Tour. You can grab tour deets at the Stööki Sound Facbook page, and you can download and stream the single here.  

SIGUR RÓS - HEYSÁTAN (AMTRAC DUB)

Music, RemixEricComment

Amtrac provides some of the most chilled out and satisfying dance music on the planet. Additionally I've loved Sigur Rós for years, so when I saw these two names together on one song I knew it was going to be perfect. For those of you unfamiliar with Sigur Rós let me give you a little backstory. Hailing from Reykjavík, Iceland Sigur Rós first came onto my radar with their song "Starálfur," that has such a heavenly beautiful aspect to it. With an entrancing piano melody and strings leading the way, the song easily floats you away to another atmosphere. Their most successful LP 'Takk' features this song "Heysátan" along with "Hoppípolla" probably their most successful single that was featured in many movies, TV shows and ads. If you get a chance listen to the entire 'Takk' LP its well worth it. Amtrac has taken "Heysátan" to new heights making such a moving atmospheric tune dance floor ready. Amtrac has really made this track his own in such a flavorful way, using the pads strings and occasional bells to accentuate the main chords. He utilizes the vocals for ambient background splashes resulting in a hearty, bone chilling deep house cut. You can nab this as a free download here.

PS this post took a while to get all the accents and spellings correct lol so thanks in advance for noticing 😉

[PREMIERE] EVVY - TIDAL WAVE (YOUNG BOMBS REMIX)

Mike DooseComment

If you're a BB reader, you know we've featured Young Bombs before on the blog. We love everything the Canadian duo puts out. This track was actually featured in the Buzzzmix they did for us back in January. Now we're stoked to have the premiere for you today! Best of all, it's a FREE DOWNLOAD!

EVVY is an awesome indie pop artist from New York who's got serious swag. She's turning heads too (this track originally premiered on Billboard!) and for good reason. Her songs are just really good. Tidal Wave is just one of those songs that you can't help but move to, and the lyrics and melody will have you singing along too. Now with the homies Young Bombs giving it an even more dancefloor friendly house treatment, you'll be wanting to turn up right in the middle of the office this hump day.

DENNY WHITE - PSYCHO

Music, Original MixErin MaherComment

We all have to take the good with the bad in life, and sometimes it can be rather challenging. Personally - my career is taking off! I have an amazing job that I love where I get to put together lineups for club nights, electronic music events and festivals - kinda kick ass.  Also, this here blog is growing a such a fast rate I legit can't keep up! It's all good, but then holy mac it drives me crazy! Some days I am pulled in so many directions that if I don't shut everything down and take a breath I'll go psycho! Good with the bad.... Denny White is feeling me however, and if you were to ask me what's good riiiight now - I'd say this track! "Psycho" is electro pop perfection - his vocals are so soulful and dreamy I'm swooning. He just get's me. If you're feeling a bit psycho today then this one should be the perfect thing to soothe your soul! 

PHANTOM SAGE - AWAY (FT. BYNDY)

Music, Original MixHarrison MorganComment

We’ve heard a few different styles from Phantom Sage and this time it seems they wanted to blur the lines a bit and hit us with a progressive dubstep tune. ‘Away’ starts off pretty chill with a lot of echoing vocals, but soon enough it starts building up and preparing you for the awesome drop. This track makes me think of Flume and Rocket having a love child and i can’t get enough of it. This song is beginning to gain traction and for all the right reasons, take a listen below and go check out these guys’ Soundcloud, you won’t regret it.

GRIZ - GOTTA PUSH ON (FT. BRASSTRACKS & ERIC KRASNO)

Music, Original MixEricComment

Oh man this might just be one of my favorite GRiZ tracks yet! As one of the primary artists in my mind that has been slowly pushing the funk and soul agenda onto the dance music scene, GRiZ has done so with style, saxophone, distorted synths and boatloads of bass. However "Gotta Push On" is not the most bombastic record which, in my opinion, makes it that much more special. It hits with the same kind of hype and energy that embodies many of GRiZ's other records except that the chorus leads with Brasstracks...yes BRASSTRACKS' sexy horns. Eric Krasno sounds superb and the choir that he got to sing in the end crushes! This track I feel epitomizes the direction GRiZ has been pushing toward for many years, and comes at the perfect time. Just about the only thing missing from a track of this magnitude is a slick verse from sayyyy I don't know...Anderson .Paak. Ha ha I know...a guy can dream right? Anyways, until that dream becomes a reality just take a second to enjoy a remarkable artist seemingly at the height of his game. "Gotta Push On" comes as the final single released before GRiZ drops his new LP 'Good Will Prevail' this Friday Sept. 23. The 'Good Will Prevail' LP is currently available for pre-sale on iTunes here.

San Fran! There might still be some last minute tickets available for GRiZ's Funksgiving show November 26th at the Bill Graham Auditorium. You can purchase tickets below!
