Last year when I was writing up a piece on the best ghetto funk of 2011, I thought that ghetto funk would be the next biggest thing in emerging music – well, I more hoped it would be. The sub-genre just doesn’t have enough traction with producers and listeners to be the next big thing. However, I do know what’s about to tear up this next progression in music and this time it’s not just wishful thinking.
Our last major mix of music was comprised of the next stylings in R&B. With the likes of Frank Ocean & The Weeknd, soul music is back, but that’s only one half of the equation.

Released this a while back, but had to feature ’em for SoundKlout. There’s only a few DJ’s who can mixx up pop songs together in a fashion like this, but when I find ’em it gives me just a little more hope for the mainstream music scene.
DiscoTech has a consistent club fun viiibe, but each track hits me right in a different way. I haven’t heard much from them lately, but there’s bound to be some fresh shit coming from these Euro-rave liberators. can’t wait
