PANG! - CIGARETTE FEAT. CAMERON DOUGLAS

PANG! is somehow a group that wasn't on my radar. I got an email regarding this new single, and I instantly had to do some research. While this Swedish duo has remained in relative ambiguity, they've put up some insane numbers on Spotify with "Walking in the Sun" raking up 23 million streams and 524,329 monthly listeners. Their newest is a rework of a song they found through an online video posted from the featured vocalist Cameron Douglas. "Cigarette" is a joy to listen to with beautiful acoustic guitar work, folksy style vocals and tropical bells and xylophones. This song is a chilled out delight and is mellowing out my hump day. Oh and just check out that cover art from Faustroll Garden. Out via Dirty Soul can stream/buy this single here.

[PREMIERE] KISO - SO LONG (FEAT KAYLA DIAMOND)

It's been a minute, but we're super happy to have our boy Kiso back on our pages. In case you missed it Kiso has put together a monster year with huge number remixes on his Mike Posner cover of "I Took A Pill in Ibiza," and DJ Snake's "Middle" both featuring a singer Kayla Diamond.  Hey if you've got a good thing why change it right? So today we are super pleased to premiere a new original "So Long" with vocals from...you guessed it Kayla Diamond! I asked Kiso to give me some insight into the making of this song, "So this song started way back in May of 2015 as an Instrumental with my main guitar guy/vocal engineer Ashton Price. It took us like 3 hours to place the guitars for some odd reason and by the end of it the time was 3am. So for about a year we shopped it around to vocalists as 3am Instrumental mix. Nothing came out of it, then all of a sudden we remembered Kayla... and so we sent it to her and she had some amazing lyrics for it in like 1 hour. I honestly almost gave up on it but then Kayla killed it so we knew we had to release it ASAP" A year and one hour in the making...I think it's time listeners dive into this one.

KID FROOPY - BB (FOUR MISSED TEXTS) (VALENTINE REMIX)

If you've been a BB reader for any time, you've probably noticed we are in love with Moving Castle, the collective with artists such as Jai Wolf, Manila Killa, WRLD, AObeats, Robokid, Chet Porter and many others. In August they put out this incredible track "bb (four missed texts)" from the relatively new and mysterious producer Kid Froopy. Now they've dropped a remix package featuring three unique takes on the future electro pop original which is so full of sugary, young-love feels. My favorite of the three comes from Kansas City-based producer VALENTINE.  He puts an edgy, raw, bass-tinged twist on the track, creating something super fresh in the process. It's a delicate blend of the original's cutesy charm and his own melodic take on bass music, which packs a healthy punch.

SIDIZEN KING X THE STRIKE - EYE FOR AN EYE

Well this is an absolute treat of a new record from SIDIZEN KING and The Strike. I'm a huge fan of hip-hop, electronic pop crossovers and the dance-ability of this record simply pushes it into overdrive. KING's verses just go down with ease and the chorus vocals courtesy of The Strike's frontman Chris Crabb inspire some definite Michael Jackson comparisons. Lyrically KING states that his verses come from a dark place, a "toxic relationship that felt like perpetual war." However the upbeat energetic nature of the instrumental allows the track to still beam like a light. Relative newcomer SIDIZEN KING already has a hype machine #1 for a cool cover of The Chainsmoker's "Don't Let Me Down" and we have high aspirations for this one. Better hop on this bandwagon now, because it's definitely picking up steam. You can also nab this as a free download here.  

[NEW SHOW] LOST KINGS + THE HIM // NOV 26 @ RUBY SKYE // SAN FRANCISCO

MATOMA - FALSE ALARM (JUSTICE SKOLNIK REMIX)

We were going to premiere this one, but as the story goes, issues with the label and release got in the way big time. It's a mystery why labels struggle to get organized with releases so often ... this yung producer was not even given the courtesy of a fresh soundcloud upload. So, please ignore the age here - it's brand new not 2 months old! I digress, how stoked are we to talk about Bay Area producer Justice Skolnik right now? Bananas good! He's dropped a siiiick remix of "False Alarm" by Matoma that is full of future pop dance vibes with a tinge of that tropical Matoma flavor. Get into this one kids!   

SONS OF MARIA & ANGELIKA VEE - SWEET MADNESS

When I was sent this track - the email simply said "hot as fuck yo" - and with that how could I resist. Sons Of Maria have delivered a very poppy deep house gem that I am feeling this morning ... and yes it is hot af! They have taken the original chord progression of "Elements" by Dinka and re-created this brand new track "Sweet Madness." It's bouncy dance groove and funky melody with a wee bit of tropical flavor is making these last days of my indian summer feel warm and vibrant. Add in vocals from Angelika Vee and boom .... we've been taken closer to heaven with this sweet madness! Out now via Enormous Tunes, and you can swoop it from iTunes HERE!
