Dntel, better recognized as Jimmy Tamborello, (who is better recognize as beatmaking half of Postal Service) will be releasing his long awaited Aimlessness EP this summer on 6/5 through Pampa Records. This will be his second single release, with the previously blogged ‘Bright Night‘ being the first. “Still” feels similar from some of his previous work with mystique and hazy over layered sounds to produce a cacophony of elegant chaos.
Aimlessness is out 6/5 on Pampa Records.
Kid Cudi is back. And not the guy that attempted to go the rock route with WZRD. “Dennis, Hook Me Up With Some Of That Whiskey” is a self produced tracks that takes inspiration from most of his earlier work yet still showing us maturity in both lyricism and production.
Savoy, the Brooklyn-based electro trio have turned the original “When the Night Falls” by Chromeo into a fast and gritty electro-house remix.

Teenage singer-songwriter Alice Jemima has been building up a name for herself in the UK, but her cover of Lana Del Rey’s ‘Million Dollar Man’ is set to give her global recognition. Alice’s trembling vocals carry a world-weary feeling which belies her age, and the delicate guitar is a heartstring-tugging accompaniment. One for the Laura Marling fans out there, don’t miss this rising star.
It’s been far too long since Belgium’s live electro rock outfit Soulwax has laid their remixing chops upon some worthy material, but they truly outdid themselves this time with a remix of “Sprawl II” by Canadian folk rockers The Arcade Fire. The pulsing disco rhythms cruise along at a leisurely 105 BPM while lead vocalist Régine Chassagne soars high above and melodic arpeggios tie the mix together. If that wasn’t enough there is even a cowbell heavy hand clapping breakdown! Soulwax has earned their place in the upper echelon of live electronic acts with their unique sound and remixes like this one only solidify their reputation as some of the best in the business.
Kaskade is one of the few producers in the EDM scene to not only release new tracks every other week, and keep a consistent high quality. Taking his song “Call Out” off of the DYNASTY album he laid it on top of one of last summbers best banger ‘Epic’ by Sandro Silva & Quintino to create and interesting mix full of powerful house melodies.
Deadmau5 is known to release tracks he comes up with the night before on a live stream session, and “Fn Pig” is one of them (kinda). A similar sounding teaser was uploaded about a year ago titled “Get In The Cart, Pig” and it seems to have evolved into what “Fn Pig” is today. While we may not feature every single clip he creates, this one is worth checking out. More than 8 full minutes of industrial sounding progressive house that will get you ready for the weekend.
