It’s the first day in December as well as Giving Tuesday … so I’m going to give a few tracks from last month a second listen and share them … with all y’all. It’s all about the pop today. Electro-pop, dance-pop, all the pop … what would life be without pop music? My first selection comes from our long time darling and Austrian producer filous. We’ve been raving about him for years, and this new track “Trying Not to Think About You” has that great pop hook that catches your ear and draws you in … I’ll be singing this melody for hours! Nina Chuba’s vocals are sweet and savory with all the vibes … what a great collaboration between these two artists. Listen and love!

PLUKO - FEELINGS FT. MARLHY
Music, Original MixCommentSODOWN- MY LOVE (FT. JONNY WILLIAM)
CommentThe official start to summer is June 21st, but it feels like its already happening full swing here in California. Rising future-funk producer, SoDown brings the pool party flavor just in time with sweet-tempered, summery single, “My Love” featuring soulful vocals from Jonny William. Having opened for legends such as Pretty Lights, The Floozies, and Manic Focus- SoDown has been putting his name on the map for his stamina, innovation, and style. Combining bass, soul, and classic funk- he’s switching up the EDM experience. Being classically trained on the saxophone, he’s best known for merging old school brass with electric grooves both in his singles, and live sets. “My Love” impresses with well-formulated production that builds the groundwork for Jonny William’s full-bodied, soulful vocals. This one is dance floor ready, sure to set the vibe all summer long.

DJ KOZE- BONFIRE
CommentGerman producer Stefan Kozalla, better known as DJ Koze has been making a name for himself in the German hip-hop scene since the mid 90’s. Established as one of the most playful producers, he’s remixed for many, including Chicks on Speed, Rah Band, Matias Aguayo, and countless others. His first solo album, Amygdala appeared back in 2013 courtesy of Pampa. This release came 8 years after his first full-length, Kosi Comes Around. Experimenting with proper Kompakt-style minimal techno, ambient, break beat, and dream pop- he cultivates legendary musical expression. In 2015, Koze released a mix for the DJ-Kicks series and in 2016, put out a Pampa sampler. One of his latest releases, “Bonfire” comes from his full-length LP, Knock Knock. “Bonfire” is concurrently inviting and apprehensive, mixing pulsing atonal synthesizers with warm vocals sampled from Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon. There's always a beautiful, magical element in any Koze release. If he didn’t already win you over with his remix of “Operator” at Dekmantel, no worries you have 16 more tracks to fall in love with.
SOUL CATALYST - ONLY YOU FT. FELISH
CommentSeeing that Beautiful Buzzz thrives from innovative artists, we understand the impact they have in inspiring people all around the world. One artist in particular has enamored me since 2016 when I first heard, “Scenic Route ft. Felish.” Los Angeles based producer Andrew Coulter, better known as Soul Catalyst, has consistently been an artist I can queue for anyone, anytime, in any environment and receive the same positive reaction from. His stylistic choices render a daydream essence. He's held his own remixing favorites such as, Daft Punk’s “Lose Yourself to Dance” and ODESZA’s “White Lies.” With light filled, organic, care-free melodies and vocals, it’s clear he’s mastered the art of combining electronic house beats with dreamy psychedelic chill. He's just released, “Only You ft. Felish” off his forthcoming album, Silver Linings. It’s hard to say what’s in the future for Soul Catalyst, but I’m sure he’ll have no problem turning it into a beautiful journey.
