THE KNOCKS - HEAT (FT. SAM NELSON HARRIS) (MANILA KILLA REMIX)
RemixCommentMy day today is totally bananas! I think I got too into my Thanksgiving break and forgot that I have one million things to do all the time ... but that's work, and holy crap my work makes me happy! Like this track for example, for my work it's my responsibility to find great artists like The Knocks years ago and write about their jams on BB and throw parties with them in multiple cities to support them on their rise to greatness! DONE! And then there is yung Manila Killa from that Moving Castle crew whom we've been swooning over and supporting from day one it seems, and are now watching and helping him find his way to greatness as well!

COURTSHIP. - LOVE FOR EVERYONE
Music, Original MixCommentI’m a bit behind on getting this up with the Holiday and all, but I had to show some love to this sweet new single from courtship. This LA based up-and-coming indie pop act is ready to make you smile with their new single “Love For Everyone.” This sun soaked tune picks you up from the second you hit play with shimmering pads, shakers, funky guitars and piano throughout the first verse. The half falsetto vocals ring out with a relaxed, but jovial feel sweeping us into an upbeat chorus that’s got me bobbing my head. In what sounds like a trumpet like synth we’re surrounded by layers of vocals, arps and synths that send this chorus into overdrive. Such a fun tune! I’m definitely gonna be having this one on repeat. You can stream this on Spotify here, and Apple Music and download for free.
RAHMANN - SHOW YOU (PROD. WORKERS)
Music, Original MixCommentNew Jersey rapper Rahmaan just teamed up with French producers Workers to drop a vibey, bouncy track reminiscent of Anik Khan over a Soulection beat. Adding to a growing pool of rising stars of South Asian descent, Rahmaan's lyrical content and delivery show how a new generation of experiences and culture is infusing itself into hip hop, and music overall. Hip Hop is at least in part defined by its ability to act as a medium for the examination of an individual or group's unique perspective into the American experience. The more diverse these stories are the richer the experience for everyone involved.
FØRD - OBLIVION (FEAT. RYA PARK)
Music, Original MixCommentThe young 18-year-old producer phenom known as FØRD, from Byron Bay, NSW in Australia, is back with another stellar track that balances being a great modern pop song and showing off his talents as a producer. "Oblivion" features the sweet but haunting vocals of mysterious Melbourne newcomer Rya Park over FØRD's signature bouncy future synths and assortment of island-inspired percussion and punchy hip hop beats. It's a top notch addition to the youngster's growing catalog of impressive singles.
FLUME - HEATER
Music, Original MixCommentIn Baseball terms, a heater is described as the fastest pitch that a pitcher has to offer. A fastball so fast that the batter cannot catch up, it is a heater. Flume has just released “Heater” and we were definitely blown away at how good this song is. We cannot keep up with it, it is way too fast, we have to put it on replay just so that we know what epicness we just listened to. This is definitely Flume’s best pitch he has to offer right now and I would not be surprised if “Heater" climbs up the charts just as fast as this song hit us. The bass is so heavy and the synth waves are so distinct that you cannot help but turn your head to catch your breath as the “Heater” is upon you taking your breath away. Flume, you are now officially our Ace in the Hole, our MVP, “Heater” is striking us as the next great track and all we can do is congratulate Flume for this epic home run of a song. Step up to the plate if you dare and listen to “Heater” by Flume.

ROBOTAKI - RIGHT TIME FEAT. ARI
Music, Original MixCommentMontreal's Robotaki is back with a sexy new single “Right Time” featuring the vivacious vocals of Ari released on the always lovely Majestic Casual. This tune initially develops mellow and groovy from the start with a pulsing rhythmic subby whomp that flips and folds around the churning rhythm section. Ari’s vocals sound sweet and relaxed although somewhat biting with the “never is the right time” lyric leading the way above the contemplative piano that chimes in sporadically. Around 1:45 the track unfolds into a massive future bass banger that's equally chilling as it is bombastic. This is his second original release in the last few months, and he's been on tour crushing support for Porter Robinson and Madeon, whichhh by the way LA if you don't have tickets to see their show tonight at the Shrine you're missing out! Robotaki's gonna beast mode the opening set paving the way for San Holo and then the two headliners. You can download/stream the new single on your fave retailer here.
