Lower Dens made their way into SXSW this year bringing their Swarming guitar fuzz, bass waves and Jana Hunter’s delicate voice. Baltimore five-piece documented their stay (thanks to ABSOLUTE Vodka and SPIN) showing us the real grind and change in lifestyle caused by touring. Make sure you check out their acclaimed second album Nootropics as well their upcoming shows across the northeastern states.

No word on the release date just yet.

A throwback to a remix we really never got a chance to listen to. Thanks to our friends over at raketa4000.ru, we are able to bring you this glitchy experimental madness that evolves into quite possibly one of the best remixes of M83 we have heard.
“Run into Flowers” is from M83′s 2003 album release, Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts.

It is finally here. Purity Ring, the Canadian ghostly-synthpop duo, bring us their latest release ‘Obedear’. With sharp melodies glazed over a mystic atmosphere, this new track only increases our impatience for the release of their full-lenth album Shrines.
Shrines is scheduled for released on July 24th through 4AD and Last
It is always impressive when a dj/producer can pull of a style and direction completely opposite to that track on a remix or edit. But perhaps it is equally as impressive when they create a piece that incorporates just as much influence as that of the original creators. The Australia duo, What So Not, who are a fresh act to EDM, pull a remix that even Diplo would approve. Essentially similar to Major Lazer’s version, the small edits of welcoming gritty basslines sprinkled around the track give this chill track a bit of spontaneity.
I first heard “Young Blood” by The Naked And Famous on the amazing snowboard video “The Art of Flight” from team Redbull. The beautiful airy vocals and epic melodies perfectly complimented the slow motion snowboard action and ever since it has been one of my favorite tunes. Imagine my excitement when I found this remix by the one and only Tiesto and his partner in trance Hardwell. These expert producers elevated “Young Blood” to new heights with their progressive rhythms and big room synths. Definitely an anthem for the ages. Bonus remix by Futurecop!.

Continuing Skrillex evolution, we finally have another peak of Skrillex & Damian Marley collab with the track “Make It Bun Dem”. Skrillex is known for over extending his buldups, electronic filters and obviously for overwhelming us with BASS. Yet ‘Make It Bun Dem’ demonstrates Skrillex growing control of his own basslines. A fantastic mix between two Raggae and dubstep that will be on repeat this weekend.
