SIDNEY SAMSON - THE WORLD IS YOURS

As with my previous post, this track seemed to be getting people pumped at last nights Dark Party.

From the creator of last years club smasher 'RIVERSIDE' comes one of this summer's musts. It's been sitting in my CD wallet for a couple of months but I haven't been brave enough to take it out. Dark Party was going off in such a way last night, that I had no choice but to give it a spin. I'm very glad I did.

N.E.R.D. - HOT 'N' FUN (BOYS NOIZE RMX)

Quite a few people were asking me what this tune was last night... so I thought i'd share it with you. First heard it a little while back. Textbook N.E.R.D. with an extra injection of party courtesy of Boys Noize.

It's Huge.

The Count & Sinden ft Mystery Jets

as if anyone could see this coming? The Count & Sinden teaming up with Mystery Jets. "After Dark" is set to be a massive dance floor anthem, boaboa, pointed me in the direction of this, great stuff, and thanks to annie mac playing it out the other day, everyone can listen to it below

We Have Band

We Have Band - Oh! (Official Music Video) from We Have Band on Vimeo.

catchy as new single from We Have Band. was a massive fan of the first single "You Came Out", i'm really enjoying this, and shall be playing over the weekend ;)

Over and over and over and over.

I'm sure one of the Dark Party family members has mentioned this track before maybe even me. But it needs mention again, i just cannot get enough of it. It just reminds me of every garage anthem ever and is a massive track on it's own. i love it. The rest of Ruskos album was a massive surprise as well alot of the his signature wobble but there is also alot of other stuff, be sure to check it out (for me this is the best track on there).

JAMMER

I always been a fan of Jammer, but recently the dude is killing it. Go buy his new album avalible now, its called 'Jumanji' and it is blessed.

The Chemical Brothers - Swoon (Boys Noize Summer Mix) [FULL HQ]

Amazing remix of an already great track, its a proper summer tune which i feel wrong playing on this overcast Wednesday afternoon. This should be appreciated outside on a scorching hot Saturday.

Glasser - Tremel (Jamie xx Remix)

Its like the XX and its members can do no wrong at the moment. Another quality remix probably topping the Florence remix in my opinion.

Katy B - Katy On A Mission

If it wasn't over already i'd say this was my summer tune. Massive production from Benga with great vocals from Katy B.

fun video too

Foster The People

i was tipped off about Foster The People via Fixin' The Chart, and i havent been able to listen to anything but this, you can download the song "Pump Up Kicks" from the website(link above)

enjoy

Katy Perry - California Gurls (Mstrkrft Remix)

This song can now actually be listened to, thanks MSTRKRFT! even though it is a pretty lazy remix, like he has a button that makes it sound like his

but still no hating, its great

Stromae

Stromae is fucking massive in Europe, was in Berlin just the other day, and he had 2 singles in their top ten MTV playlist. great lazy style and flow. i think the thing that takes this to the next level, and why its so big, is just the melody and music transcends language which makes it accessible to everyone

check out "Alors On Danse"

Last Night...

so last night at the Penthouse, thats above The Freebutt, in Brighton, a night called SHY GUY happened, it was too much fun




i dont know why boaboa hadnt post this when he first started playing this over a month ago, as now its EVERYWHERE, but i still reckon he is one of the pioneers of this track, and a true clarks solider



great sunshine music

Katie Stelmanis // Private Life

Katie Stelmanis or Private Life, depending on what day of the week it is, have this great haunting charm about them. with her reverbed and echoed vocals and layered sounds, its quiet easy to get lost. the full length album comes out in the fall of this year, really looking forward to it

check out "Believe Me"

Forest & The Trees

Forest & The Trees hail from Stockholm, this 2 piece have so much going on in their sound, all very warm and swishy. when i heard the first single "To the Forest (I Need Some Peace) i instantly fell in love, great building and well paced single, this is the video below

Factory Floor

i heard about Factory Floor about a year ago, and they were one of those bands i just forgot about... more fool me i guess. about to play their 3rd OffSet festival, they are ovs a band that you need to take note of. having just recently released the single "Lying" made me release what i was missing out on. with there dark entrancing rhythms its hard not to wanna move, or shake at least

check out "Sutton Hoodoo"

Friendo

Friendo were a random itunes fine a few months back. really standing out with their minimal garage band sound, just fell in love with the song "Oversees". has an almost shoegaze quality to it

enjoy

here's a link of their Eggs Benedict mix, its a little old, but still pretty good

F O E

F O E were passed on to me, as a "one to watch", i'm really into the dreamyish dance beated sound and with it being pretty dark too, everyones a winner

check out "Tyran Song"

More Summer

I think this is going to be included in my new mix, its definitely big enough for the dancefloor.
