Trap/Twerk

Since the Weeknd dropped ‘Often’, I’ve been eagerly anticipating the remixes that would follow. When I saw that one of my favorite producers Andrew Luce would be putting his own spin on the track, I knew it would be an instant favourite. Andrew keeps the opening fairly true to the original letting the Weekend’s seductive vocals set the stage. It’s…

It’s been quite some time since we’ve heard new music from Baauer (aside from the track he produced for Tim Vocals) and we’ve definitely missed him. Returning with a fresh banger entitled ‘Clang’ Baauer does what he does best, combining wild and eccentric samples with heavy bass. The track contains uplifting exotic sounding synths with hard hitting drops for a…

Australian producer Loston has just released his first original tune. If you’re a fan of his remixes (Waiting Game, Too Much, November 18) you’ll certainly enjoy this. ‘Next Exit’ is a massive track that is vibed out but still hard hitting. The soundscape created is cinematic taking you on emotional journey. What’s better is the fact that the track is also a…

‘Hammertime’ is a fitting title for a song that is riddled with abundant gun clicks and trigger happy lyrics. Vices & IVARR have teamed up to flip Pusha T’s bars from ‘Wamp, Wamp’ into a nasty track, with two distinct drops that span Jersey Club and Trap (2 of our favorite genres!). If you’re a fan of either genre or gritty music in general,…

Icekream‘s (half of SoundSnobz) new track ‘Listen’ is a must hear. Breaking through genre barriers, the track starts out with some jazzy brass. Shortly after Icekream brings in some wonky deep house bass lines and some scattered hi-hats. Things slow up as the sax takes centre stage for a mellow break. Just when you think it’s about to fade out, the…

50 cent is back and I’m not talking about Animal Ambition or the G-Unit reunion. Mr. remix, Andrew Luce has come through with a remix of his club classic ‘Disco Inferno’ and “It’s hot!”. Adding some trunk rattling bass and some stellar synth work he brings the track into 2014. Even better, like all of Andrew’s remixes it’s a free download!…

This year’s summer anthem is here. The highly anticipated remix of Calvin Harris’ ‘Summer’ from Diplo and Grandtheft is guaranteed to dominate every festival, club and maybe even the radio until temperatures begin to dip. No strangers to collaborating Diplo and Grandtheft provide a remix of epic proportions. Perfectly utilizing Calvin’s catchy vocals, the two producers turn this track way up. From…

When I caught word that Promnite and Falcons would be hooking up for a collab I was pumped. I ran through my mind what the two producers might cook up and I have to say the result wasn’t what I was expecting (a pleasant surprise). Taking a break from making more mellow material ‘Riddim #1′ comes through with some serious…

Every time Bro Safari drops a new track you know you’re in for something special. When he hooks up with frequent collaborator UFO! and rising production duo Beauty Brain things get out of control. The new track entitled ‘No Control’ is a massive trap banger, built on what sounds like a distorted banjo. The song contains massive drops, intriguing builds,…

It’s Thursday and this week we’re taking it back to 2012 for a certified Trap classic. The song is ‘So Fly’ by Huglife (Dj Slink at the time). I wasn’t aware that he had changed his name and lost sight of the talented producer for quite some time. For a detailed breakdown of the name change check out the interview…
