It's always awesome seeing new talent right before they take off into the house music stratosphere of fame via wild productions and live DJ performances. The bro's Matt and Don that compose the budding disco group Solidisco have picked up a serious amount of momentum last year moving into this one! With releases such as " Give My Love " and " I Need It " , and their current smash " Never Let You Go. " With a few releases already on the stellar Fool's Gold [...]
Alright guys, we know we know - it's been a while since the last Weekly Round-Up ! But we're back in style with a round up of our greatest posts throughout the week.

Paul and I are back with this week with a heightened focus on Bristolian bass. We're gearing up for the start of festival season this month. Dig inside this week's set to catch the groove from some of the producers we're looking forward to seeing. Amusez-vous Bien: I don't know where this track came from but it's here. And it's a hot groove. [J] After listening to the much anticipated new Terrence Pearce EP out next week, I had to do some digging into [...]
Our boy Joey Paranoia is back with two of his latest releases on Smile for Camera's label, right in time for the impending summer/pool-party seasons to kick off. Dancer's Royale is a fun little track that's a hit no matter what time it is and has a unique sound which seems teeter between Trap & House, while Blast On is a funky tech house joint that Joey teamed up with fellow Orlando producer, Nicademass to create. Blast On boasts a completely different sound than anything else they've made in the past...but you [...]
The Dutch don’t rest, at least not when it comes to house music. The Dutch duo known as Blasterjaxx has recently released their newest EP, Koala , on Ones to Watch Records . Thom Jongkind and Idir Makhlaf met in 2010, and after a few collaborations they decided to start working together as Blasterjaxx . Their sound can be described as a seamless blend of big-room and electro-house, with Latin subtleties. After releasing their first EP, Reborn , on Laidback [...]
Beats Antique has long been a favorite group of mine, and the last two weeks has solidly placed them in my all time top 5. Last Saturday they arrived in my little town of Bend, OR and blew the roof off of the Domino Room! Zoe Jakes displayed more energy than I have seen her put forth in quite some time. While David and Sidecar Tommy sent me into a bass trance track after track! Thank you Slipmat Science for turning eleven and bringing this wonderful threesome to Central Oregon! Then today, the group dropped [...]
With the first single - "Get Lucky" - from the upcoming Daft Punk album being released last week, we have received a slew of remixes for this funky track from both managers and fans alike. This "Get Lucky Remix" from DJ Fresh One is by far at the top of the heap! With unique elements and wonderful samples mixed in by an obviously talented hand, it's exciting to see where such a disco influenced track can be taken! And to be totally honest, I have listened to the original [...]
House? Future? Garage? Garage-bass-future-house? Who knows! It really doesn't matter because this new EP, Halcyon , by Cape Town native, Terrence Pearce, is ineffably amazing music! Forthcoming on Futureboogie , this EP is set to be released on Cinco De Mayo (May 5th for all the non-spanish speakers), and I'm loving it to pieces. With every song giving you something new, it's just the right length and has the perfect amount of boogie for it to be listened to straight through. The first track of the EP, Poise , gives you [...]
In hot anticipation for his upcoming Thursday night residency at Sankey's Ibiza with the likes of Justin Martin, Catz 'n Dogz, and Eats Everything, head honcho of the Dirtybird label, Claude VonStroke delivers 30 minutes of gritty, island-ready techno in his Back to the Island Mix uploaded on his Soundcloud page . For those of you who might be new to Claude VonStroke (which I hope isn't many) this Detroit-raised bearded dj and producer is known for his energetic sets with music [...]
"“For the last three years at least, the big trend has been early '90s house. Everything's a throwback. I think it's the right time to put out something that's a little more deep and futuristic again. - Maceo Plex” Few words can explain what Maceo Plex does behind the decks or in the studio, and this new track collaboration with Mark O'Sullivan showcases this perfectly. This song starts so subtlety with haunting vocals chanting "when it all comes to this", a glitchy beat, and a snare drum and slowly the hurricane that [...]
Hailing from the U.K., a known hot spot for deep house moguls, is Maxxi Soundsystem - a producer who has been leaving hardcore fanatics in awe with almost every release. Forthcoming on Golden City Sounds , April 26th, is a remix that is guaranteed to turn heads. As soon as the track commences, it instantaneously hooks you in with a melody that borders on the line of being melancholic. Dragging you in with each sound as the faint vocals prepare you for the climax. This remix of Look Around You has all the ingredients of [...]
We've been running this Top 10 Jams feature for a few weeks now, and I've got to say it's one of my favorites to date. It's the first place that you as a reader/fan can get a glimpse into the tunes that inspire your favorite artist or what they're listening to in their spare time. This week we have a pretty special feature with Popeska , an up & coming dub / electro artist that's versatility is almost as amazing as his production skills. His collaboration with Luciana on 'The New [...]

Now at the top of all things house, Lars and Maarten, have teamed up with Tsuba Records to bring us a brand new EP. Together, they bring us their signature finely-tuned deep house that is known for its tasteful sprinkling of mo-town and jazz. The opening track [...]
Silky feel of early 90s nostalgia. Two hombres of ours, Satin Jackets & Rogue Vogue , teamed up on Deep & Disco 's last release on earlier last week. What deserves a highlight, however, is one stellar remix... Rogue, himself, gave a nod to "Crystal Waters" for the inspiration on his piano riff (for those out of the loop, youtube " Gypsy Woman "). Personally, I'd like to give attention to the little things - looking past the incredibly infectious groove in this remix, I've always admired [...]
The 18th release on Swedish label, Mouseville Records , will showcase the highly awaited return of Eric Prydz 's techno based alter ego, Cirez D . With the many monikers that Pryda has, Cirez D has always been a fan favorite with classic releases such as ' On & Off ' and ' Raptor '. This darker, more edgy side of Prydz's production has been seriously anticipated ever since he played as Cirez D in Miami this for WMC this year. With a two-track release, Cirez D [...]

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to meet up with The Flexican at Miami Music Week but he was still cool enough to give us an interview from across the sea in his home country of the Netherlands. One of the up and coming artist off Mad Decent , who is sure to explode over the next year, we got to sit down and talk Latin music and songs we wished would fall off the face of the earth in this interview.
