OPIA - SHADOW DANCES (CHRISTOFI REMIX)

Music, Original MixEricComment

Gotta give a little shout-out to MOONZz who had her EP release show last night and it was sickkk. She's got a bright future ahead can't wait to see her ascent. While I was there I happened to run into Jacob and Cole from Opia and we ended up chatting for a minute. This remix from Christofi was already in my queue for a review, but it's weird how life sends you coincidences sometimes! So now I'm even more excited to support this cut which is already climbing its way up the Hype Machine chart. "Shadow Dances" is already a fire hit check out our review of the original here, but Christofi has added a real touch of brilliance to the tune, spicing it up and making it into even more of a dance floor ready jam. With smatterings of guitar, pumping synths, a deep kick and groovy bass all coming together below Opia's soulful falsetto vocals, what more could you want in a disco, electro pop gem! Christofi has been throwin flame recently and we fully expect this heat streak to continue. You can download this fo FREE right here

[PREMIERE] MAHALO - CATCH MY EYE + HEARTBEAT EP

Music, Original Mix, PREMIEREEricComment

Well we've seen Mahalo making big strides in the last year, grinding putting out a lot of tracks, really finding the flavor of his nu-disco influenced house. Happy to say we've been on this train since the first stop. Today I have the pleasure of premiering Mahalo's latest "Catch My Eye." The track has bits of tropical themed influences, but with a distinctly nu-disco flare. It's repping flanging guitar, 80's-esque breaks, pads and drumming all wrapped up with the soulful vocals that totally caught our ears. "Catch My Eye" comes as the second single off of his 'Heartbeat EP' courtesy of the UK's Sleazy Deep label. The EP features another amazing single "Heartbeat" I had to throw in to this post as well, along with Rob Made's sexy remix of "Heartbeat" and Mutiny UK's Bongoloid Dub rework of "Catch My Eye." Mahalo also just released an incredible video for Heartbeat created by the mastermind VIDKID. Check out the video here and purchase on iTunes here

BLUBIRD - WAKE UP

Music, Original MixEricComment

Ahh back to the grind. If you're feeling a bit of the Mon-daze that I am then you are really going to appreciate this one from London via Slovenia based BluBird. "Wake Up" is an energetic upbeat feel good record that is totally wiping the sleep from my eyes. A deep kick, synth stabs and claps accompany a fun guitar line filling in the instrumental underneath a relaxing female voice urging us to "Wake Up! Sun is shining for you!" Out via our homies over at The Vibe Guide you can nab this as a download or stream here.

MOI JE - PROFITE (KAZY LAMBIST REMIX)

Music, RemixEricComment

Well sometimes I'm just strolling through Soundcloud and come across a gem that I'm not too familiar with. France's Moi Je and Kazy Lambist have not really been on my radar, but I'm sucker for sexy disco jams and this track is 100% that. Featuring light synthwork funky bass and Moi Je's mesmorizing disco vocals, Kazy Lambist has made a lounge friendly nu-disco treat that we all get to enjoy! You can nab this on iTunes right here.  

[PREMIERE] THE TEMPTATIONS - I WISH IT WOULD RAIN (MAHALO'S BLUE SKIES REMIX)

Music, PREMIERE, RemixEricComment

Soo many feels for this track right here! Our homie Mahalo has delivered yet another great remix adding even more momentum to his 2016 rise. This is definitely going to be a staple in a bunch of sets as we slowly inch toward festival season. Mahalo has been driving his breed of sunshine deep nu disco influenced house and it's really reaching a marvelous epitome. As shown in this epic remix of The Temptations "I Wish It Would Rain," Mahalo hits the house style piano hard while accenting the vocals and building into a perfect bassy drop. This track smashes with danceable punch yet flows forward with ease like a slinky down a staircase. Ha ha got my childhood toy reference in for the day now nab that FREE DL here.
