Despite it’s winter release, Major Lazer’s PartyNextDoor and Nicki’s Minaj assisted ‘Run Up’ is set to be a summer smash. Giving it some additional life comes a fresh Jersey club flip from 4B. It’s exactly what you’d expect from 4B; a massive club rework that’s guaranteed to dominate festivals. 4B keeps key portions of the track intact while building the…

Major Lazer are no strangers to topping charts and creating summer time hits. Four weeks into 2017 and they’ve already dropped what will likely be a big time summer smash. Continuing with their signature fusion of electronic and Caribbean sounds, ‘Run Up’ features PND on two verses and the hook while Nicki takes on the last verse. PND sounds great on…

Last year I stumbled across an incredible New York based producer by the name of Drek Martinez. His debut original, ‘No Love Lost’ made me an instant fan and releases like ‘Muse’, ‘Runaway’ and ‘6th Gear’ proved his consistency. I predicted a huge year for the up-and-coming artist but his SoundCloud fell silent for all of 2015. After spending a good portion of…

While some people are up in arms about this being the official remix others are loving it. Arguably the biggest hit of the summer, ‘Lean On’ just got the official remix treatment with a verse from Ty Dolla Sign. The song really isn’t much different from the original but the new verse is a nice touch (even if you feel it…

With the release of Major Lazer’s Peace Is the Mission earlier this week, we figured we’d look at a track from Diplo’s Caribbean inspired project for this week’s Tracks You May Have Missed. Though many are familiar with the 2013 hit ‘Get Free’ they may have missed the remix featuring J. Cole. The track serves as an interesting backdrop for Cole…

While the Major Lazer track begins heating up for the summer, remixes have started popping up everywhere. The latest remix comes from KRNE who puts a future bass spin on the hit. The build and drop on this track is pretty filthy and KRNE does a good job of keeping the track exciting with vocal chops and a ridiculous drum pattern that…

Fresh off a wild remix for The M Machine, CRNKN is back with another massive official rework. Taking on the Major Lazer x DJ Snake summer anthem ‘Lean On’. The track opens with MØ’s vocals as the focus. As CRNKN brings in the drums, the track begins to build toward a mind rattling drop. It retains the summery feel of…

“You need to know that I’m a rider, tonight we gonna set the streets on fire”. The anthematic hook from the star studded new Major Lazer single is reflective of what’s about to happen with its release. Featuring Travi$ Scott, 2 Chainz, Pusha T, & Mad Cobra ‘Night Riders’ is destined to be massive. Pusha drops a fire verse, 2 Chainz…
