Well this is a hell of a way to get my Friday started. You may have seen this hit the interwebs yesterday, but I'm still getting buck wild for this collaboration of the most epic proportions! Dillon has firmly secured himself a pretty sweet spot in dance music history and NGHTMRE is quickly on his way to the same at a super young age. "Need You" is a moomba-esque, grimy, dubby concoction with top notch sound design. The decline after the first drop is admirably melodic, something I would expect from these two and the build features a major lazor-esque rasta vocal that turns this track into overdrive. We definitely now have a certified festival anthem primed and ready to go for this summer. Expect to hear this get played...a lot. You can download on iTunes here.

EMBER ISLAND - NEED YOU (CLOUDCHORD REMIX)
Music, RemixCommentWell I'm back in the swing of things still missing/remembering/recovering from the epic week we had in Austin at SXSW. To my delight Austin's Cloudchord, who graciously performed an incredible set on our stage Friday night with booming thunderclouds over head, sent over this epic remix of Ember Island's voluptuous single "Need You." Cloudchord delivers a beautifully melodic rendition of the track involving his signature guitar and pumping bass lines that envelope Ember Island's chilled out vocals. Just loving this tune. You can nab it as a free DL here.
