I’m prettay sure this is the complete track. It says on SoundCloud that it’s a preview, but I think it’s a preview of the whole mix. So that means this is the full part to this individual track… right I’m not too schooled on how it all works :)
Anyways, it’s Coldplay’s “Every Teardrop is a Waterfall” remixed by Avicii… can’t get much better than that. Can’t wait to hear the whole mix.

I think I’m a Sabi fan now just based of this pic ;) NEways, Zeds Dead just hit us up with a remix of her “Wild Heart” track. Can’t say I’ve ever heard her before, (is she big) but liking her voice with this dirty dubstep grymes. Also, wondering if this is just a preview – the intro/outro are faded in/out. Whatevs, good shyt!
[audio:Wild-Heart-Remix.mp3|titles=Wild Heart (Zeds Dead Remix)]I first became infatuated with the Ben of all Partys when I heard his mashups on “Just Go With It”. Since then I’ve been following him on SoundCloud and not only does he pick the right people to remix, but does it damnnnn well. He does have an advantage though being in the music scene of all music scenes, The Bay Area.

As much as Stephan Jacobs is still as an acquired taste as any of his kind, he really puts mass appeal potential to his work. Just gotta wait around until the people catch up to this progress in music.

Before I gave him some criticism about his loose style, which almost seemed sloppy to me. But once you cozy on down with it, you begin to understand its headnodic appeal. Of all things this has done for me, it’s made me realize I gotta see him live.
My only major issue with the album is the featured artists, but since it’s really more to do with the politics in who he picked than their performance, I’ll leave it at that.
Overall, the album may not be up to par with the singles released earlier this year/late last year, but like I said before, this type of music ya gotta habituate before you castigate. ;p And, to be honest, a few are already starting to grow on me since the beginning of this post (“The Way It Was”).

But what shines are those glorious bass-driven beats. Glorious. Still don’t know about his flow though, but better than that Mac Miller
Look out for Camp to release early this November.

The White Pandas are straight up mashers and, although, they mostly deal in the mainstream pop & hip-hop I don’t usually care to feature on here, I still managed to find some properly put together tracks. These two really know how to take apposing styles and whip ’em up as one.
[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/23147728" params="player_type=tiny&font=Arial&color=292929" height="18" width="55%"]Gartner’s pre-track to his upcoming album is giving me a little “dissonance” in itself. At times I can appreciate what he’s doing with it, reminds me of that mau5 viiibe with those awe-inspiring synths. On the other hand, it’s not put together as well as his usual fashion. Guess that’s why it didn’t make the cut for the album. Until we get our hands on that, enjoy this :)
[audio:Cognitive-Dissonance.mp3|titles=Cognitive Dissonance]Ill-esha’s remix of The Morning by The Weeknd captures the smooth sexiness of the vocals and adds a downtempo, soulful beat. I especially enjoy the electronic synths that fayde in and out giving the song that airy feel. And her bassline for the chorus is amazing! In the hands of many other dubstep producers, The Weekend’s soft vocal would be drowned out by the dubstep wobbles, but Ill-esha puts her own sounds in harmony with the vocals […]
[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/17072676" params="player_type=tiny&font=Arial&color=292929" height="18"]No Ceremony’s “Hurt Love” is utterly addicting. With melodic vocal samples backed up by a simple piano loop, it’s making waves through the blogosphere, as well as my mind. The simplicity of the song makes it a haunting masterpiece. And the official video only adds to their painstakingly mysterious persona.
