I've spent the past couple of days catching up on some dub I've missed out on. Scanning through the past year of a couple heavy hitting dubsteppers has been AWESOME. I found a bunch of tracks I didn't know even existed that kicked my ass. So hope that your friends love dubstep as much as I do, crank the volume and enjoy. Most of these won't be downloadable, but it don't matter. It's Friday, put your party shoes on and go crazy to these beats. A lot of Bassnectar, some Zed's Dead, and a couple sick mixes. Lets have some fun.
I can't believe how well the "Hold on to your 808" track works, I would've never seen those two blended to perfection. I guess the last two tracks aren't really dubstep, but they're fucking awesome, so I don't care. It's Friday, I'ma do what I want.
Just a couple tracks today, a select few songs that I've been hung on and felt the need to post. There's a small emphasis on Phantogram, as a buddy recently reminded me of how sick they are. Other than that, no particular emphasis. Listen and learn.
Got a couple remixes here from the Denver DJ extraordinaire Prettly Lights. These are from his New Years Eve run in Chicago a little over a month ago he just released them. Quintisential Pretty Lights here, make sure you check them all out. The Pink Floyd "Time" remix seems to cut off quickly, but it's still probably my favorite from the set. Also be sure to check the Steve Miller Band rework and the Kanye remix, both are AWESOME. As always from Pretty Lights, all these tracks can be pulled from his website here. Enjoy:
Here are a couple songs that I've been hooked on lately. Their simple approach in a modern day music scene filled with ecclectic beats and bumping whomps brings a welcome release. The theme for this post is simple songs with synth or creativity. For those who don't know, if you like any of these, just click on the little downward arrow on the right of the track to Download. Check 'em.
This track just melts like... well... "Hot Sugar." The song its titled 'The Seagul,' and is nothing short of hypnotic and relaxing, it simply soothes the stresses of the day.
The sounds from this track are a little more synthetic, but just as chill. Swim's "Wishing Wars" is smooth and serene, and a nice complement to the 'the seagul.'
Pogo, the artist of this next track, is seriously creative. He's usually working for Disney, laying down track's for their animated films. He does this type of stuff on the side, and it blends with an animated flavor. Titled "Wishery"
This track is straight sexy, at least in my own mind. The original (by Bon Iver) is sweet and sexy in it of itself, but the remix by Das Kapital makes it pop. Crisp as a pringle, but smooth as a yogurt. "Skinny Love."
I'm gona cut if off here with Cult's "Go Outside." With the blizzard we're currently weathering here in Hamilton, it's a nice reminder of good times outside. Stoaked for the first snow day. Almost a childish feel, the track is a smile in it of itself.
