Mixtape me anotha

yyyyyYYYYYYYESSSSSssss!  Stephan threw a mixtape on your face!!!  It’s been a minute now since we’ve gotten more than 3 minutes of Jacobs juicyness.  Obviously it’s taken quite a while to get a mixtape of this caliber.  This mix takes you from grimy Dutch house to bass to trap to you name it, with highlights of hip hop making this musical journey extra super duper womp womp danceable.

I’ve been a fan of Stephan ever since I heard his remix of Gui Boratto’s “No Turning back”.   When I first heard it, I thought my heart was going to break or burst out of my chest or ears or ANYwhere! The emotion was just overwhelming and to this day when I play it I still feel it just as hard as the first time.  To me, this is the reason music exists.

Striped space horses

Cosmic Zebra… now that’s a name that’s absolutely going to entice me to check out their biznassss.  So glad I did!  Two young brothers, Diego and Alan from Mexico make up this sweet zebra duo (I think it’s so sweet when family members work on shit together!) I love how they combined grimy sounds with piano notes and chipper vocals.

Slow Motion Sunday

It’s noon on a Sunday, so you probably aren’t awake yet.  But when you DO open those bleary eyes and ears, I’ll have this soft sexy song spooning you awake.  Warning: this song might me you wanna get back in bed and light some candles if you know what I meeeEEEEAANNNnn!!!! Bowchikkabowbowwwww! 😉

ASTR is a duo living and producing in NYC that met at a yoga class. (I simply adore that.) Their sound is influenced by cinema noire,  Miami Vice and Urban dreamscape.

Gone too Far?

Ok so I don’t know if I’ve been listening to electronic music for too long.  I keep searching for newer and newer sounds that perhaps I’ve gone over the edge and no one is hearing the same thing I am… This song, to me, is such a beautiful culmination of subtle sounds and quirky peaks that I feel like everyone should be addicted!  I guess I just don’t understand why songs like this don’t get the love they deserve!

Show Akouo mo’ love!!

Fresh in the House

Truthfully, I must admit that I am not a House fan.  I mean really, there’s only so much time I will allow myself on the dance floor closing my eyes and bobbing my head, until I need to get a really stiff drink (or 6 or 7…).  HOWEVER, there are times when I will make an exception and gaddammit, I am making an exception for this one!

So, I was just lookin for new music this morning, lettin’ my soundcloud do it’s thang and when this song hit 2:00 I spazzed and bolted out of my roommate’s room (nearly trampling the cat) to see what track was playing.

Jayyfresh definitely has his own sound style that will set him apart from other House producers, with a beat to hop up to mixed with that dirty grimy sound to get DOWN to!  He barely started producing just 2 years ago at the ripe old age of 16, so sky’s the limit for this guy!
