It has been said there is no greater bond than the one between a boy (or girl) and his dog … and I wholeheartedly agree. I can’t imagine life without my sweet little guy Louie and his puppy kisses. So it bums me to know that this latest track “Misha” from ilo ilo is a love story about a dog. Looks like one of the young producers in this electronic indie dance duo recently went though a break-up … and she took the dog, Misha. This is the 3rd and final single from their Dream Tapes EP. It’s full of smooth whispering vocals with swirly synths over indie electro beats, slick as hell! Stay strong ilo ilo - missing her is hard but hopefully it will get better. SMOOCH!

GRYFFIN x JOHN MARTIN - CRY (TRIVECTA REMIX)
Music, RemixCommentI used to look forward to Monday’s … back before COVID and when I was working at the club. I had the best assistant a girl could ask for; Sarah and I were like two peas in a pod. She loves, and I mean LOVES all that melodic bass goodness and turned me onto a bunch of young producers making waves in the genre like this this delicious nugget right here … Trivecta. Sarah and I must have tried 10 times to put him on a show and unfortunately it never worked out. His new remix of “Cry” by Gryffin and John Martin has that huge melodic trance and beefy bass sound that will give anyone the feels. I can imagine Sarah and I sitting at our desks blasting this jam as loud as possible and chair dancing like crazy as our work mates laughed at our antics. Good times. Happy Monday y’all!
RUDIMENTAL - COME OVER FT. ANNE-MARIE & TION WAYNE

ROOTKIT - SPARKS FT. CASEY COOK
Music, Original MixCommentI’ve been searching for a way to come back to life … the world has us all discombobulated and I’ve been on a new self discovering journey with the massive changes facing all of us in the music industry. I’m finding my way back through my roots, and this blog is what started it all for me personally. Always look back to what you know to find your way forward, the answers are there. I feel this with new track from Norwegian producer Rootkit called “Sparks ft. Casey Cook” that is filled with massive vibes. Out now via bitbird - this is a story of looking relationships to figure out how to move on … "This song is about that stage in a relationship where you ask yourself if you should stay in it or not. There's a loss of connection, the distance seems to be growing by the second, and you start overthinking and reflecting back on arguments. But the second they light you up again and give you that euphoric feeling, you retract right back to being in the "sparks", completely hung up on that feeling and sensation they give you.” - Rootkit
ANT SAUNDERS - MISCOMMUNICATIONS (GOLDROOM REMIX)
Music, RemixCommentWe can all agree that 2020 has been the worst year. I won’t go on and on about how stressful and crazy the past 4 months have been personally, because we are all going through it - but what I can say is that the one thing I will miss the most this year is my boat party with Goldroom. High Seas may be canceled in 2020, but we’ll come back stronger than ever! Until then - here is a new Goldroom remix of “Miscommunications” by Ant Saunders for all the summertime vibes!
WHETHAN - SO GOOD FT. BULOW
Music, Original MixCommentOur bb boy Whethan is keeping things cool while we are locked down. For the past few years we have watched this young man’s career take off, and every step he makes is oh-so delicious. His new track “So Good ft. bülow” has that bouncy bass flavor we have grown to love from this LA producer. Play it, love it, share it … and bounce!
