Zedd‘s ‘Clarity’ was easily one of the biggest reasons that EDM took over the mainstream this past year, and remixes have come almost as frequently as festival plays. More rare is a remix that does Foxes’ soaring vocals justice. However, this ambient trap remix by young producer Carter Juncal is able to do just that. […]
Massapeals is like drinking a fine imported beer, it’s way better then the domestic shit you’re used to, for reasons you might not even be able to put your finger on, but dammit if they’re not doing it better. Hailing from the UK, this group/guy/person/thing (I can’t find a lick of info on them) manages […]
I must confess, I’ve never been much of a fan of Danny Byrd‘s output. Most of it falls into the category of “this might be big, but it’s certainly not clever”, and while jump-up heads will doubtless dismiss me as a D&B snob, I just need something a bit more interesting from my beats. Thankfully […]
After the release of Siamese Ratchet Funk, Dan Hacker (aka Muzzy) had us all highly anticipating his second installment of world wide ratchet funk. His newest track, Italian Ratchet Funk, did not fail to hit the mark dead on the head. A great combination of old world big band samples and his funny brand of […]
Finally, Chewy Chocolate Cookies is starting to receive the attention that he deserves. I’ve written about this Italian-based producer before (here’s the interview); he’s extremely talented, versatile, and a bit camera shy. CCC’s music is sick and one of his tracks, “BOOM”, is on the top of my favorites list. Wooha! Records presents BOUNCE, with […]
With the massive wave of trap remixes that have been springing up recently, it’s easy to overlook some of the really good ones out there. Luckily, glAdiator’s remix of Boyz by M.I.A. was not one of those tracks that slipped past us. Featured on a mixtape from rap legend Jay-Z’s Life + Times blog, the […]
A quick note to producers – not all trap has to sound exactly the same. There a a variety of sub ‘styles’ you can follow, or you can be completely original and make up your own. While this preview of Major Lazer‘s remix of Boing Clash Boom is technically trap, it sound like every other […]
From beyond Neptune, 12th Planet returns with the biggest and nastiest sounding trap release I’ve come across so far. I don’t claim to be an expert on trap, or to even have an ear for it, but I can tell you when a track bangs regardless of tempo or genre. This release right here, I […]
Flosstradamus seems to be continuously dropping new shit on the fans of trap. They has been progressively working with Dj Sliink for a while now, and each time they collaborate, their style seems to grow toward and epic end. This is the Nomads EP. Crowd control, or rather ctrl, is a new banger that brings […]
For some reason, TNGHT have yet to get the renown they deserve, as they are nothing less than the kings of trap. Ever since the TNGHT EP dropped way back in July of 2012, the ridiculous combination of Hudson Mohawke and Lunice have dropped banger after banger, constantly pushing the boundaries of what the new […]
