WHO’S THE DOUCHE? EP [Darius Syrossian, Hector Couto]

Earlier in the week, as we all begrudgingly sat up in our beds with Monday pummeling us at full force, the boys at Hot Creations decided to drop yet another EP of filthy jackin’ house beats. Now it’s Friday and your responsibilities have likely shifted from work to play, and we implore you to start the weekend off on a good note. Begin with this latest tribute to the famed Chicago house sound comes courtesy of Europeans Darrius Syrossian and Hector Couto and their Who’s the Douche? EP. It’s a 4 track package that twists through classic Chicago house beats and moves into deeper, more contemporary sounds with your meaty bass lines, bizarre vocals and most of everything else that has gotten you giddy about the deeper stuff.  Any way you dice it, we are dealing with a silver bullet of underground versatility and a couple sure-fire weapons for the summer.  Do yourself a favor and enjoy the EP and do the artists a favor and buy their music; it’s win-win.

Ralvero Says Fuck What U Heard

Today Dutch producer Ralvero released his latest track “Fuck What U Heard” on the Bingo Players’ Hysteria records. This is a Big Room/Electro-House cut with a heavy drop and an epic synth break-down. What really ties it all together is the vocal sample right before the drop, exclaiming “fuck what you heard!”. I love the bass undertones in this one and although the track does have a relatively generic formula that many Dutch Big Room guys have these days, it does manage to stay unique in its own way.

I also wanted to call your attention to Ralvero’s remix of “Like Ya Hollywood” by Paolo Ortelli & Luke Degree featuring Katt Rockell & Jay Mula (that was a mouthful). This one dropped last week and really had me moving, maybe even more than “Fuck What U Heard”. It’s got a bass sound similar to that of Nicky Romero & David Guetta’s “Metropolis” , but has some poppy vocals thanks to Katt Rockell & Jay Mula – so you get the best of both worlds with this one.

Sander Van Doorn’s Joyenergizer Receives the Spaveech Trap Treatment

I’ve been saying this since I first heard Sander Van Doorn‘s “Joyenergizer“: someone needs to write a Trap remix. Well have no fear, Spaveech fulfilled my wishes and he did it in a way that went above and beyond my expectations. Actually, check that: he did it in a way that falls in line with what I’ve come to expect from his work. We’ve posted a couple of Spaveech’s remixes, worthy of being cranked on big speakers and played out in your DJ sets (I played his Trap remix of Afrojack’s “Rock the House” and it went over huge, and his Trap mix of “Make the Crowd GO” is dirty too). What I like best about Spaveech’s remixes is that they’re almost like mini mash-ups. While he primarily remixes one song, you’ll often find elements of other songs layered into the productions. For example, this remix of “Joyenergizer” features the intertwining of Sander’s “Chasin’” and “Nothing Inside” which both go well with the overall theme. And frankly I lost it, got chills, when “Nothing Inside” dropped around 5:00. We’ll do our best to keep this New Jersey native on your radars but do your job and follow him on SoundCloud and Facebook – it’s only a matter of time til he takes off!

BONUS!
Two weeks ago Spaveech put out his remix of Zomboy’s “Here to Stay” ft. Lady Chann as part of a Beatport Remix contest. Spaveech’s take on the track is too good to go unnoticed and I had to make sure you guys heard it. This “Here to Stay” remix is an Electro-House banger with some sassy vocals and elements that remind me of Wolfgang Gartner & Skrillex’s “Devil’s Den”. Voting for the contest is over but let’s hope Spaveech got some great exposure from it!

Ace Hood x Future – Bugatti (Heroes x Villains Remix)

Thank you trap gods. Daniel Disaster and Pete Heartless, the DJs behind ‘Heroes x Villains‘ from ATL, dropped this crazy remix of Ace Hood’s, Bugatti today, and let’s just say I’ll be listening to it before I go out for the next several weeks. As is, this song is straight fire but the HXV’s refined trap remix incites instant beast-mode whether you’re waking up in a new Bugatti or a 1996 Hyundai Accent. The beat winds up and down with a crazy bass drop much like HXV’s remix of ‘Jah No Partial‘ that was recently released on Major Lazer’s new album, ‘Free The Universe‘. They’re definitely talented and being a part of the Mad Decent crew as well as Dim Mak, I’m sure they’re fostering many upcoming tracks for this year. Shit, they might actually wake up in a new Bugatti themselves if they keep up this pace.

Mark Knight’s “Your Love” Is Finally Here!

It’s been a long time coming, but Mark Knight‘s latest masterpiece “Your Love” was finally released yesterday. The legendary British producer/DJ/record-label-owner has been pushing this track in his live sets and as part of his awesome podcasts over the past couple months. Originally titled “Can’t Get You Out of My Head”, the song was renamed due to licensing issues. I think the original title is much more fitting because I legitimately could not get it out of my head after first hearing it. The Deep House track is groovy and catchy and embodies many of the elements I look for in Toolroom sounds these days. Maybe you’ve heard this track or maybe you haven’t, but either way you’ll likely be playing it on repeat in the days to come.

Hook N Sling Drops Felise For Free

Hook N Sling is back at it unleashing a huge house hit via his Soundcloud just in time for the weekend festivities. The track has a slow, even build up, which finally plateau’s into a heavy, high paced beat that will get you off the floor.  Pumping out a melodic anthem for the price of free is a smart move for this Australian native as he is still building his brand opening for the likes of Axwell and Alesso in Vegas this spring. His next studio single, Don’t You Know, will be released on Spinnin’ Records this Friday!
