THOREAU - BRONZE WHALE x POPESKA - IMAGINE FT. TOM ASPAUL (THOREAU REMIX)

Music, RemixAlli LindseyComment

Rising progressive house producer Thoreau just dropped his vibrant remix of "Imagine" by Bronze Whale and Popeska. While the original track received stellar feedback on its own, Thoreau's treatment is blazing trails for further success of the hit single. Heavy-hitting dance music faces a lot of criticism in the EDM community, primarily for stale repetition and predictable chord progression. Thoreau's spin of "Imagine" is direct proof that progressive house music can, and should be, a revered, multi-faceted take on electronic composition. This remix is tailor made for a summer night house party, or a shoes-off-at-home-shuffle-sesh. Its first major drop at 1:31 is a shock wave of dynamic, pulsating resonance. Thoreau has reshaped this already brilliant single into a stimulating, cleanly mixed dance party. This Boulder-based producer is changing the way the EDM-world looks at progressive house, as his artistic outlook on dance music is refreshing in an often over-saturated market. Get down with Thoreau and his latest remix via Soundcloud, sure to leave you feeling reanimated and recharged.

SWIMS - AM TO DM

Music, Original MixErin MaherComment

I got started early on this beautiful San Francisco Friday morning! The sun is shining and it's above 65 degrees before 10am - and if you know anything about SF weather and June gloom - you know this is rare! What a perfect vibe for this next SWIMS track "AM to DM" -- they are "embracing a warmer sound to accompany the changing of the seasons" and I'm feeling it! SWIMS is made up of two Moving Castle legends, AObeats and SAKIMA, and together they produce magical pop/R&B electronic songs with smooth melodies and exquisite vocals. Swooning!

Music, Original MixErin MaherComment

Bit by bit - emerging artist Lil Hank is showing us how to live a dog's life through every new song that's released. His latest track "Stole UR Girl PT 1" reflects the overwhelming effect he has on all your girlfriends (and boyfriends TBH) ..... he swoops in and steals their heart faster than you can blink an eye. With sexy R&B tones and delicious future beats, Lil Hank gives us that irresistible vibe and we are lost in his shining light once again. I think the best part is this is part 1 - which means Lil Hank has no plans on stoppng .... done stole her!  

EMBRZ - HIGHER

Music, Original MixAlli LindseyComment

Jack Casey, better known as EMBRZ, just dropped a down-tempo masterpiece, "Higher." This Ireland-based, self taught producer has already received stellar reviews on his latest track. I find it more than safe to say, the buzz is much deserved, as this romantic piece is both calming and energizing. "Higher" is engulfed by the sounds of gold with radiating, subtly chopped lyrics, and glowing expressionism. The track's warmth is transcended by a staggering build up at 2:00, leading into a final drop of sentiment and sunshine. This single was obviously crafted by a young musician with a passionate, charming spirit. "Higher" possesses a quixotic temper, that is soft and whimsical. Get with this amorous debut by adding it to your summer time Spotify playlist. Thank you EMBRZ.

SIOBHAN SAINTE - BURN IT DOWN

Music, Original MixEricComment

Sometimes we have the privilege of getting in early on certain acts, and we have high hopes for this budding indie pop songstress straight out of New Zealand. Siobhan Sainte is her name and if she keeps laying records like "Burn It Down" upon us, then we're sure you'll be hearing about her more. Produced by Andy Rosen (Meg Myers, Ofelia K), “Burn It Down” symbolizes the beginning for the 21 year old singer, and showcases her inimitable vision and talent fully devoid of cliché.  Represented by her love of film noir, haute couture and pop culture, Siobhan’s songs have a vintage feel of the 80s and 90s, but are modernized with a pure adrenaline rush.

COSMOS & CREATURE - BAD DRUG

Music, Original MixAlli LindseyComment

Progressive pop duo, Cosmos & Creature just released their sophomore single, "Bad Drug." In their latest release, the twosome composed of Molly Moore and Brandyn Burnette use bad drugs as a metaphor for bad love. Despite the heartbreak vibe of the track, Molly and Brandon are actually an artistic super-couple. And although they are simultaneously pursuing solo-careers, their undivided project possesses a striking synergy. Cosmos & Creature take contemporary pop music and combine it with indie-electronic ingredients, resulting in a vibrant melting pop of unique reverberation. "Bad Drug" is laced together with powerful, romantic lyrics, echoing whistles, and a hint of jazz. Their latest single is proof that twosomes can be just as formidable as full-piece bands. Molly and Brandon's chemistry off stage directly translates into their music—neatly mixed, strategically layered, and beautifully animated. Cosmos & Creature is relatively new to the music scene, as "Bad Drug" is only their second Soundcloud release, but amateurs they are not. Hop on the band wagon and watch this couple blossom into success, because it is happening quickly. Not to mention they are spunky as hell, and cute to boot. Support their movement by streaming "Bad Drug" on Soundcloud now! 

ORIGAMI - RED EYE

Music, Original MixErin MaherComment

Good morning world. It's Monday and oddly I am feeling fabulous! Who knew Mondays could be so fun ... maybe it has something to do with all the great music I'm finding. New week .... new artist! We welcome LA based pop/urban producer Origami to our BB pages, and he's just released debut single "Red Eye" for our listening pleasure. With funky dance grooves and light soothing vocals, Origami delivers a pop infused dance track that we can all sink our teeth into. Forget about finding any information about this guy online - there's nothing .... which I kinda find frustrating but I'm over it because the track is fire! Really excited to hear more from this emerging artist! Enjoy!
