Indie electro can cut straight to the core of anyone. All the violence in the world is so un-needed...Why does Syria not just invest in some speakers, and play some Wolf? Stupid world leaders... Be ready to be taken on a journey of effortless vocals, aggressive drum riffs and synth work that'll make your heart [...]

Here comes trouble. Trap Tuesday is back, and it is meaner than ever. 5. Tomsize x Siméon - Looney Trap The name says it all. Just utterly nuts, packed to the brim with Looney Tunes samples. This song is like taking a horrible journey back through all your cartoon network fuelled childhood nightmares. 4. Jackal [...]

Its summer. Its hot. Shit is good. Chill the fuuq down with Cults. This gets me every time. Annnd Boom. Awesome summery remix by 2 bears. Lots of loving going on.

• Cults - Go Outside

It is by now well known that both Bronze Whale & PRFFTT & Svyable are established producers, smashing out remixes and originals left right and center. When they decided to make a track together, the gods of Olympus must have smiled as they watched it come into being. Add to this mix the stunning vocals [...]

The pioneers of melodic dubstep, Mt Eden, just released their 'Walking On Air' EP. These guys were the sole reason I even got into dubstep of any sort, with their huge track Sierra Leone. The beautifully vocals laced over the deep harmonious bass captured everything that I wanted, needed, to hear, and I went on [...]

Groovy remix here from Love Thy Brother, adding a funky house spin to John Newman's 'Love Me Again'. Perhaps most famous for his work with Rudimental, John Newman is fast becoming THE vocalist to work with, and for good reason too. His voice is full of soul, and is utterly addictive.

Really impressive little deep house edit from German Patrick Schulze. Beautifully using the ghostly haunting vocals of McMorrow, Schulze spins this into a dark remix, supported by the looping guitar in the background. Nothing mindbogglingly complicated, but does it need to be?

I just recently stumbled upon Ninth Parallel, and his remix EP of Reentry. Sounding almost like a mixture of Porter Robinson's huge tune 'Unison' with touches of Madeon's 'Icarus', I was blown away by the first breakdown. Then the track truly came into it's own, building upon some heavy melodies with a crunchy percussion backing [...]

Serious oldie but goldie here. As Summer starts to come into full effect, and long evenings are spent in the last hours of light accompanied by a cold beer and good friends, this is the song you need to be playing. Without a doubt this is the best edit of Daft Punk you will ever [...]

We here at Not Some Kid always strive to try and bring you all areas of the music industry, interviewing people from all over the spectrum. One of the unsung heroes of the industry is the men and women that run the youtube promotion channels. We got chatting to one of them... Started late in [...]

Our second Peer Kusiv feature of the day is a perfect song for finishing your week. Taking 'Let Her Go' and adding a soulful deep house vibe to it, Kusiv transforms this into something very special indeed. Contrasting emotions of both uplifting hope and stranded isolation run deep throughout this beautiful little edit. Enjoy, and [...]

Whatever you are doing, stop. New MitiS, free download. This could be the best way to end the week ever. Another classical MitiS remix, this will fit perfectly into that folder of special tunes you have on your ipod or laptop. Keep a keen eye on this guy, he will spend the next few weeks [...]

This is just what I needed to chill to this afternoon. CoMa is a vocal extraordinaire, and Arpyem fully grasps the ghostly vocals, spinning them around a soft and luxurious backing beat like smoke through clasping fingers. Perfectly simple, yet more layered than you think. But that is just the gift of CoMa's vocals, they [...]

Something nice and indie for you here. Peer Kusic produces beautiful deep house, but moved away from that to make this rather interesting track. With simple guitar melodies punctuating the percussion beautifully, this is a perfect track to end the week with.

Having unleashed this euphoric masterpiece upon his fans at Ultra, Kaskade released a teaser for this crowd pleaser about a month ago. It came out a few days ago, and I am telling you this right now, this is a masterpiece of progressive house. Kaskade is always a thrilling artist to listen to, and I [...]

Something a little flirty from the boys over at Bronze Whale with this live recorded set. Featuring many of my new favourite tunes (what a coincidence!), this is perfect for your weekend summer buzz. Tracklist: Tek Deadmau5 - Vanishing Point Mephisto Odyssey Featuring Kristo - Sexy Love (Remix By Simo) Oh My God - (Chris [...]

Utterly powerful remix from Draper. Having been signed to Drop Dead for a long while now, it is always a bonus when he remixes BMTH, but this is a step above the rest. Harnessing the powerful vocals of Oliver Sykes, he creates a heavy, bass filled 3 minutes. Draper always pushes himself when creating remixes, [...]

Hot damn this remix is sublime. Having just finished a 2 hour math exam, I was craving some chillstep to serve as some ever warming therapeutic charm.  First place I looked, I found this. Stumbleine, another amazing chillstep artist with no where near enough followers, has created this magic. It's time to melt away.

Wow, today has been an awesome day for submissions! Straight from Vilnius, Lithuania, comes a duo who go by the name Red Milk. (Funky right?). I checked out the song they sent over and BAM, I was addicted! This could be because right now I am utterly absorbed by this whole genre of music, or [...]

How to describe this... well, maybe just the word madness covers it. This is just bursting from the seams with childish energy, encapsulating everything we all love about the sweaty mosh pit stage raves. Great submission from the Dance Floor Junkies, new banger alert!
