[Multi-Genre] Major Lazer & Bad Royale – My Number

Every time we post a single, we label the song with the genre that pertains to it. Sometimes a song dips into a couple styles, usually by mixing up the drum pattern. The thing with Major Lazer and Bad Royale‘s “My Number” is that they move things around so much, that we had to label it as multi-genre.

“My Number” kicks things off with a reggae sound that will get even the soberest of listeners to roll up and spark up the ganja. From their they move into the drop where we are met with a top-shelf drop that really echoes sounds from Bad Royale’s catalog. Two more styles come to the fold of this composition, but we’re going to leave those as surprises for you. We would say because that’s half the excitement, but no matter if you know what’s coming or not, the excitement is all the same. “My Number” is a special tune that you CANNOT sleep on. Stream it, buy it; share it with your friends.

[Tropical House] Campsite Dream – Lean On

Campsite Dream
Lean On

If someone were to send us a message that said that this email contained a tropical house remix of “Lean On” then it would be extremely hard for us to really want to open it. However, an act Campsite Dream that has swayed us in the past as fans, has offered up a new original take on the 2015 classic by Major Lazer, DJ Snake and MØ. After hearing what the Texel producer did, along with a new vocalist, we were fully embracing the tropical vibes. We were forced to admit, Campsite Dream has done it again.

These guys put together a fresh face on a track that has had a seemingly infinite amount of remixes already. Some would say that they were late to the party, but I think Campsite Dream’s timing was great. The fire has died down on the remix front, and they offered a whole different perspective by dishing this one out with a different vocalist, and keeping things as original as possible. Epic Amsterdam put this one out, however it can’t be found in digital stores. Stream on Soundcloud, or Spotify, or maybe check around the web for a download. You might just find something!

[Trap] Major Lazer – Too Original (Debroka Remix)

Major Lazer
Too Original (Debroka Remix)

One of Atlanta’s most proficient trap lords, Debroka, dished out a remix of Major Lazer‘s record “Too Original.” If you’re pleasing Diplo, you’re doing something right, and so was the case for this cat and this record. Debroka turns things up with a hot production that gets down and dirty with some trapstyle cuts, but also gets buck-wild with hardstyle/jungle-terror sections that shake things up. Although the summer festival season is just about passed, that doesn’t mean anything for Debroka who’s keeping the fire going through Fall and Winter. Expect to hear this one being played out at the numerous remaining festivals that will take place before 2016 rolls around, and don’t be surprised to still hear this when the calendar does flip to next year.

[Future] Sam Gellaitry – Waiting So Long (CRNKN Remix)

Sam Gellaitry
Waiting So Long (CRNKN Remix)

At the ripe age of 22, future producer CRNKN has become the torch-bearer of musical relevance for his home state of New Hampshire. Championing Northeast vibes from his new home in Los Angeles, CRNKN has put together quite an impressive track record thus far, earning him spots in the Northern Nights and Shambhala Music Festivals later this summer.

CRNKN has made a name for himself relatively quickly by releasing unique, aesthetically diverse remixes of popular songs by Alesso, Purity Ring, Major Lazer, and Banks.

This morning, CRNKN released a remix of fellow up-and-comer Sam Gellaitry’s song “Waiting So Long”, the latest attempt at pioneering his unique sounds among an increasingly talented new wave of musicians. It’s a unique take on Sam Gellaitry’s original; complete with a heavy synth-ensemble, toned-down trumpet sequences, and timely bass looped over the playful vocals–reminiscent of recent works by Brasstracks. Enjoy a taste of the future above and grab a free download if you’re feeling it.

[Hybrid/Bass] Major Lazer & DJ Snake – Lean On (Modern Machines Remix)

Modern Machines
Major Lazer & DJ Snake -Lean On (Modern Machines Remix)

When the ninjas sit down to consult about what genre tags we give a track, for the sake of site organization, sometimes we have a song that gives us some trouble. We love this trouble, because the songs that lie in their own space are few and far between. Modern Machines new remix is one of those songs that had us scratching our heads a bit.

The New York duo took on Major Lazer and DJ Snake’s “Lean On,” which they turned into a hybrid track that pulls from dubstep and trap; however, it lies in the midtempo range, giving it a very subtle twerky vibe. They take a turn from their energetic house music to focus their attention on bassheads, and they have succeeded in creating a dope remix. Get your free copy today!
