Usually I'm not a fan of nu-windows95 music vids but this one is exceptional. Watch in HD. Diplo & Oliver Twizt - Go out now at beatport and itunes .

You heard this one yet? It's some of the best work from each of the involved artists. Usher 's voice soars over Diplo 's elegant use of rising and falling instrumentation. This one's pretty much guaranteed to be all over this summer's radio charts, which means more Diplo exposure and consequently more weirdness in mainstream music. Can't wait.

Friends : 3 dudes. 2 girls. Brooklyn. Jake Bullit : 4 dudes. No girls. Birmingham. They've been paired up through their label, Lucky Number Music and the result is blog-haus dance floor ecstasy. Jake Bullit's smooth and punchy multi-layered synth-strumental is the perfect backdrop to Samantha Urbani's sexy vocals on "Friend Crush:" Friends - Friend Crush (Jake Bullit Remix)

photo: Quentin de Briey Yuksek 's album, Living on the Edge of Time is getting a second wind with its US release this week through Ultra Records. If you haven't checked out the album yet or are just now hearing about Yuksek, he's a French artist who's 2009 debut, Away From the Sea had a very different but equally fun and dancey vibe to it. You can stream the new album over at AOL Spinner . [...]

Welcome to the most fun you'll have all day. Whether you're dancing in your desk chair at work or doing some cleaning at the apartment, this is exactly what should be playing in your headphones right now. Justin Faust (Adidas model by day, disco producer by night) just slayed this remix for Childish Gambino 's current single, "Heartbeat." It's not often a track can pull off the rap disco fusion but here's an exception. Listen and download bellow and if you like what you [...]

Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber aka Nashville groove experts Cherub are playing a show tonight at Mercy Lounge surrounding the release of their new album, MoM & DaD . The record features roughly one hour of new material that sounds like something that might’ve been playing on the set of an early 80s porno shoot, complete with bouncing basslines, Kelley's sharp falsetto leads, sunny synthwork and laid-back percussion. My current favorites are "Doses and Mimosas," "Hold Me (ft. Dominic Lalli)," "Monogomy" and "All (ft. Natalie Prass)" but favorites tend to [...]

Damn. Jaques Lu Cont just came out of hiding and schooled everyone in the dance music game, starting with two new originals which you can stream here along with this new remix of "Paddling Out" from Miike Snow 's upcoming album, Happy to You set for release this March. Check the video for "Paddling Out" here and stream the remix bellow.

It's hard not to feel hopeful when listening to Madeon's music. It's like he's our little brother. We see his talent at such a young age and want him to succeed; every youtube hit, radio play or major venue booking is like a win for all of us. So cheers to this young producer who's main concern, as far as I can tell, is producing and playing out excellent dance pop. Good luck! Madeon's on facebook and soundcloud . [...]

If you happen to be reading from Paris, Roche Musique collective, one of the smoother house music labels out there today are throwing a party at 130 Club this saturday (Feb 11) with friends including Demon , Kartell , Cézaire and more. Grab two remixes of Demon's "You Are My High" bellow to get a taste of this weekend's sounds. Check the Roche Musique event page for more info. Demon - You Are My High (Cézaire Remix) [...]

Here's one for your setlist. Slow Roast and Get Right partner up as Codes remixes fellow NY duo Solidisco 's latest single, "Hooked." This mix has a bit of everything you'll need to get people up and moving on the dacefloor: a big beat, a nice vocal hook that gets chopped to pieces, the classic sweaty workout vibes of Solidisco's original and an amazing unexpected gritty bassline. The Hooked EP comes packaged with the title track, another original, "Savin' My Lovin," and additional [...]

If I could choose one artist to be the blog's mascot right now, it'd be Orlando Higginbottom aka T.E.E.D aka Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosars . I feel like I've been beating you guys over the head with every new release he puts out but it's for good reason. He' a strong songwriter, often singing on his own tracks with catchy melodies backed by juicy analog basslines and intricate midrange synthwork. Listen to his latest single, "Tapes & Money" bellow and catch up with his previous releases through soundcloud .

I experienced Grimes a bit backwards. Late one night when I was having trouble sleeping I pulled out my phone and opened up itunes mobile to look around for some new music. Usually you can find some hidden gems by switching up where you dig for music. In this case I was checking itunes' January chart for new indie hilights and came across Grimes' "Genesis" single. This was during the height of SOPA protests so I was high on the idea of supporting artists and decided [...]

Gigamesh 's latest house party starter comes in the form of a Grouplove remix. You'll probably recognize the "take me to your best friends house" hook from this recent apple ad . The remix is the feeling of just getting off work on a Friday evening bottled up into four and a half minute long mp3. Some fun new synth chords are added to the mix as well as plenty of Jackson 5 inspired Gigamesh signature instrumentation. Follow Gigamesh on Soundcloud and Facebook for addition streams and [...]

I got nothin but respect for the Aston Shuffle for keeping the spirit of Aussie dance music burning bright with this new remix of "Reckless With Your Love." They could've slipped into a trendy nine minute spacey disco voyage (so hot right now) but instead kept things simple, fun and elegantly clubby. Many thanks to the fine folks at Modular Recs for releasing this one as a free download. If you're in the land of Oz in the near future, check these early march dates for a very [...]

I wasn't really big on Drum & Bass until early 2010 when I got ahold of one of Hospital Records ' annual Hospitality compilations. The Hospital Rec sound perfectly blends big bass with lush melodies and memorable vocals. It's almost like they have a monopoly on gorgeous fast-paced club music. These are the guys championing acts like Nu:Tone, High Contrast, Netsky, TC and Camo & Krooked to name a few. I feel sorry for their competitors. Since my introduction to the label, I've bought 3 of their compilations, [...]

Foward thinking dance duo Dolby Anol just launched their own label, Morter and Pestal , with the intention of spreading fun, innovative club music to the masses. The label's 4 EPs deep into 2012 and you can stream their entire catalog here . So far the brightest shining single on their roster is one of their own, titled "Hold Up;" a bollywood injected vocal disco jam. Stream it bellow and pick it up at Beatport or Juno . You can read more about the new label [...]
![Nero – Must Be the Feeling (Delta Heavy Remix) [Radio 1 Preview]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4011434_lg.jpg)
It's been a bit since the Brits were borrowing styles from American producers but this is becoming something of a trend with Knife Party 's emulation of Skrillex ' basslines and the newer Dillon Francis inspired Delta Heavy rework on Nero 's upcoming "Must Be the Feeling" EP. These UK counterparts aren't clones though, given their hard hitting Drum & Bass backgrounds an adoption of new and gritty American production styles seems more like a natural reaction. Delta Heavy's (pictured above) massive remix of "Must Be the Feeling" was premiered [...]

Oh hey! Another introspective dance classic from UK talent T.E.E.D ! This time he's paired up with fellow UK artists Jonquil who operate under the wings of a music label called Blessing Force . The mix sounds like the soundtrack to a dream where you get lost in a forrest and find your way to lake; and when you reach the lake you fall in, but for some reason you can breath underwater. And then maybe you fall in love with a mermaid (I dunno it's a work in progress). It's My Part [...]
