My Mind Won't Stop Running

It's been a minute, I know.  Recently my efforts have been lacking but this is the first major step in reviving my position on this website.  I'm back today after a few months of change and my musical tastes will portray this.  I'm back baby.

Let's start with a track I know you'll love.  The vibes of Usher and Guetta's radio hit 'Without You' gets a makeover from the legendary Armin Van Buuren.  A worldwide sensation who is known for his worldly trance sounds lifts you up with the compelling chorus then sends you away with some progressive synths.

I'm going to slow down the tempo with some Danny Daze.  Groovy base lines, chopped up vocals, and an overall consuming vibe allow for this remix of Madonna to consume you.  If you readers still remember me you know I love the deep house, if anything this fondness has grown and you'll be seeing many more tracks from record labels like Hot Creations on here.

A track which apparently caused quite a stir in Ibiza this past summer has almost single handedly opened my eyes to a different sub genre of electronic music.  I've slowly fell in love with the likes of SBTRKT, James Blake, and this man Joe Goddard's work definitely should be mentioned in the same breath.

Fukkk Offf, the German dynamo who's work has been featured in advertisements, does something very special with this track.  A smooth electro base line is complimented with very progressive (think Kaskade) piano stabs in correlation with catchy vocals make this remix of Alley Cat a must download.

How about a little funky tech house out of Toronto from Daniel Dubb?  I'm not talking Boys Noize tech,  a little bit more minimalistic but oh so good.

I never got the opportunity to pay tribute to the late great DJ Mehdi.  An old track remixed by the likes of the great Thomas Bangalter sends chills down the spines.  Rest in peace.

I'm going to finish this post off with a track I heard while I was writing.  A progressive track which seems to take the best of big players like Alesso, Porter Robinson, and Martin Solveig, add a personal twist, and churn out a monster track.  I surely expect to see a lot from Disco Fries in the future.

You'll be seeing me again very shortly, I promise.

I'm Feeling Love

 

  Let's start today off with a dose of Miami legend, Danny Daze.  Daze entered the DJ scene at the young age of 13 and has come a long way since.  His experience and bass heavy brand of deep house has brought him to the forefront of his craft and his latest EP, 'Your Everything', is a clear sign of that.  Rather than pointing to the accolades of his latest release, I will praise the man, who hates classifying sub genres, for developing an original sound comprised of deep vocals complimenting synth heavy bass lines.  I have, for you, the two song 'Your Everything' EP and a bonus remix of Joe Maz.

I have given a fair amount of coverage to the release of Azari & III's debut album, appropriately named 'Azari & III'.  The wait ended on Tuesday when the album was made available for download on Beatport.  I don't think I need to go on about the deep vibes and disco influences of the Toronto quartet, again.  However, I definitely recommend buying the album and in order to entice you to do so, here is a sample.

The French duo known as BeatuCue recently released a new remix of Mika on their SoundCloud for free download.  I, already a fan of the countless electronic musicians (and artists in general) that have heralded from France, quickly became enamored with the duo's uplifting sounds which are seemingly a trademark of their countryman's music.

Our love affair with SebastiAn continues as he releases an amazing mix.  As we patiently wait for Ed Banger's golden goose, Justice, to release their second album, SebastiAn represents his label the right way.  Obviously the Electric Squeeze favorite doesn't disappoint in this latest upload but the October 25th release of 'Audio, Video, Disco' has all of our attention.  For whatever reason I cannot embed the mix into this post, so for a direct link click here.
