“So listen to this,” I said to Don, my cab driver. “These young guys from San Diego – well, one of them isn’t so young, but he’s young at heart you see – these young guys get it in their heads that if they play house and techno music until 5 in the morning, they’ll somehow have spread the message…

A little while back Craze and Four Colour Zack announced that they were collaborating on a mix that was going to change the game. Needless to say they set the stakes high and today they lived up to that promise with the release of their 2¢ Mix. Over the span of 30 minutes the two legendary DJs challenge listeners, flex their…

Today, we’re throwing it back to a time where a couple cats from Harlem were kings in the game. The Diplomats consisting of Cam’ron, Juelz Santana and Jim Jones once ran Roc-A-Fella records and it was mainly due to tracks like this. ‘Dipset Anthem’ comes from the double disc album Diplomatic Immunity that was released back in 2003 and twelve years…

Medasin just doesn’t let up. After blowing our minds with The Pink Polo EP, he blessed IshDARR with the stunning production on ‘Sugar’ and got gritty on ‘Got That’. Keeping the incredible momentum rolling, Medasin flips Gramatik’s ‘Native Son’. Long gone are the mellowed funky feels of the original. The rework goes straight to the streets centering the track around…

Opening with slow drums and the sounds of nearing train horns ‘Fareye’ is difficult to predict. As a synth pattern creeps in the track opens up to a swelling low end drop complete with dubbed out vocal samples and knocking 808’s. Midway through things speed up and veer into jersey (club) with quick kicks and vocals chops leading the way.…

Aquadrop really caught our attention earlier this year with the release of ‘On Fire’. Following it up strong comes a collaborative effort with fellow Italian producer Big Fish. ‘Don’t Say You Love Me’ is a perfect blend of new and old school house. The 90’s inspired vocals are catchy and sweet while the basslines are dark and dirty. It’s a…

It’s been way too long since we’ve dropped a fresh Viibes playlist. Usually a monthly feature, we somehow managed to take almost the entire summer off. Sorry for the delay, but I’m happy to say Viibes is back! The 10th edition is everything you’ve come to expect; breathe-taking, laid back, and melodic beats. It’s where airy soundscapes and 808’s collide for a sound…

If you’ve been following our site then you’re probably familiar with Dreamcasts. The St. Paul producer dropped a ton of killer remixes including ‘O’, ‘Red Cup’ and ‘Tokyo Drift,’ plus a stellar guest mix for our site. Today he reached a new milestone in his career, dropping his first original ‘Need Me’. The track blends future bass and jersey club for…

Manila Killa & Kidswaste got together to take on something major; covering Caribou’s ‘Can’t Do Without You’. The massive, emotional 2014 anthem is too big for most artists to even consider touching, but these two do it incredible justice. The cover has a more upbeat and cheery feel thanks to shimmering synths and the brighter vocal tones. That said, it still manages to…
