Distract Me February 7, 2014Jules 2 CommentsIf Lana del Rey were a man she would definitely be Jaymes Young. Her song “Summertime Sadness”…? Lana, if you’re sad in the summertime, you’re just depressed ok? Please seek help. But maybe don’t, because your songs and voice are so beautiful. I think Jaymes is struggling with depression but he’s so good at it that I don’t want him to stop either! And when you combine Phaeleh with Jaymes’ killer voice and lyrics, then you’ve got a song that could murder! ….hahahaha! –ok I’m sorry.

Makes my heart go click clack February 5, 2014Jules 3 CommentsI am lovin the grimy sounds and drum breaks in this sweet jam by Buku! The whole song is well put together and flows smoothly. You kinda think it’s gonna hit hard like a club fist pumper but it’s just svelte, like James Bond. (And James Bond would not associate with fist pumpers. ) This song is classy but means dirty business. Also I’m addicted to the sounds at .48.. just can’t stop repeating!!

Bound 2 Dance February 3, 2014Jules 4 Comments This remix is straight out tha salon bitch!! Epoch is gonna rock dance floors with this one! Super dance-able beat and a crisp mixing of fresh sounds with just a few lines from our beloved Kanye perfectly peppered in. Ashamedly, I am a fan of Kanye but honestly, we really don’t need much of him interrupting Epoch’s masterpiece. I’m sure Taylor Swift would agree. Womp wommmp! I first saw Epoch this past year at LA Decomp and was blown away. Still in the youth of their career, their gritty grimy yet bouncy notes drew in a huge crowd of energy and movement! You’ve gotta get following ’em, or they’ll leave without you!! Remix, Trapbound 2, dance, epoch, grimy, gritty, kanye westShare : Tweet
Just Phazzin’ out February 2, 2014Jules 2 CommentsLovin’ the flip on the collaboration between Just Blaze and Sinjin Hawke! Phazz took something awesome and somehow made it more awesomerer. I actually prefer Phazz’s version as it just adds a little bit of extra weight to the song and makes it pop. And.. honestly we all know I can never say no to the chipmunk voice, it’s my weakness.

Hello Mellow February 1, 2014Jules No CommentSo after all the dragons and battle with the last post, let’s chill out in a field or something. This is one of those songs that you should listen to while taking a walk alone on a sunny day, doesn’t matter where. From beach to city, this song will chill you out and remind you that it’s just good to be alive. Just smile and nod.

CHARGE! February 1, 2014Jules 4 CommentsIf this song were an animal it would definitely be a dragon charging forth into battle and you’d definitely be riding it. Also, yes, a dragon counts as an animal. I can thank Stephan Jacobs for this find right here since he included it in his recent mix that I posted. This song just popped right out and punched me in the face. Appropriately named Battle Royale it has a very epic feel to it with dark undertones but allows you to get down to it too! Difficult combination to achieve if you ask me but maybe it was easy for him since he studied electroacoustics for two years (seriously? that’s a thing??) However, it’s done him well! Started off as a sound designer at Sonart then began producing music in 2005. Hold onto your face! Bass, TrapApashe, bass, battle royale, hardShare : Tweet
Dat FLUTE!! January 31, 2014Jules No CommentI feel like electronic music is like Ranch dressing. As far as I’m concerned you can put that shit on almost everything… as long as it’s done tastefully. (…get it? …GET IT?! Ok forget it.) Have you ever had ranch on pizza…? You really don’t know what you’re missing. Call Dominos IMMEDIATELY!! Anywayz, I feel like swirling trap beats into this tantalizing flute was like Ranch on pizza. There is no greater heaven. The transitioning is seamless and with such a range of sounds to play with, I think that’s quite impressive. Eat this and find out!
