Welcome to the 49th edition of The Club ! In case you missed it, this week there's been quite some drama going on in the dance music community. Or well, it's more like the dance music community vs. Will.I.Am for taking creative property and repurposing it as his own production. The track he used, coincidentally, is one of the most beloved tracks in dance music, and though it's a few years old, "Rebound" by Arty & Mat Zo is not something to tamper with. One thing we've learned from this experience is that it's quite something to see fans [...]
Another week has flown by, closing the first two months of the year and bringing us to March, one of the most exciting months for electronic music. As Steph mentioned last week (and as I am sure you all know) the Winter Music Conference will be upon us shortly, which means artists are pulling out all the stops in preparation for one of the biggest events in the industry. This week The Club will again focus on electro and progressive house, along with a grab bag of random tracks and a few mixes we felt went above and [...]
If you haven't been following, BBC's Radio 1 has been absolutely killing it thus far through 2013 with their BBC1 Essential Mix. For those of us familiar with the weekly dance-filled music bomb which feature artists from all over our crazy globe, this comes as no surprise. Today, I wanted to take a moment to look at some of the artists showcased in our current calendar and listen to some of the jams that brought them to infamous host Pete Tong's decks. The selection should definitely ready you for the weekend, mis amigos. It's a dancable selection, that's [...]
"So Good" with the Swiss duo Round Table Knights has been one of my fave tracks lately. This is the kind of deep house that gets me going. Today I have been "tjejlyssnat" to this track. I don't know if the word "tjejlyssnat" is a word that exists out in the world, but it's a Swedish expression that could be translated into "girl listening" and means that you listen to the track over and over and over again. And why I do that, it's because it's so good! I chatted [...]
The Usual Suspects hit back following a recent collab alongside Dirty South with "My Heart" featuring the Canberra born, Sydney raised vocalist Mutu . "My Heart" is an uplifting junker of a tune, plowing through and up on dancefloors with stabby bassline and rocketing synths. Remixes come thick and fast as global players and local beaters Digital LAB, Mind Electric, Yasumo, Kid Sample & A-Tonez all liberally stamping on their own twist. My Heart (Original) by onelovemusic [...]
I'm a huge fan of Hey Champ, they may be my favorite music trio from Chicago. A couple weeks back, we introduced you to them with their best original material. Now here's five of the best songs they are either featured in or they have remixed. Let's begin with their electro-pop remix to Mike Posner's [...]
Here's some treats from inside my (mail)box: Apparat's new album The Devil's Walk is out now, it's mildly depressing and doleful but wonderfully executed with some sharp, techy edges to lift the whole dirge out from pit of narrative molasses. Mixes of Song of Los from Mogwai and Park Frequency(!) - Apparat - Song of Los by theinsound Rogerseventytwo - You Take Me Higher has just hit the top of the Australian club charts, [...]
