Jai Wolf’s newest track featuring Mr. Gabriel calls to form his 2016 breakout hit – Indian Summer. Both call to mind the triumph of setting forth into the great expanse. Starlight incorporates the vocals of Mr. Gabriel to drive the “explore-some-more” point further. And we’re all about ‘splorin.

 

Be sure to catch him at Coachella!

One of the fastest rising lyricists in the future beats/bounce scene, GoldLink has been getting major attention this past year. His 2014 mixtape The God Complex was the definitive marker of his skill with flow and social commentary. He blends the two together into energetic and sporadic rap that is no less than impressive. And with a voice as unique as his, it’s hard not to pay attention.

It’s always cool to see two producers with varying styles come together on a collaboration. Giraffage specializes in the smooth R&B and bass driven beats, while Viceroy’s dubbed “summertime, all the time” jams are uplifting, poolside-disco vibes. You can especially hear elements from both of them in this sultry, sexy tune. With the help of Patrick Baker on the vocals, this is surely set to be one of the defining songs of the summer.

Somewhere at the cross section of contemporary dance music and modern Los Angeles cool you’ll find Venessa Michaels. This multitalented artist has hit the scene with her own version of “Date Night House”. She has songs for getting ready, for the ride to the restaurant, and certainly for the nightcap. Fusing elements of future, deep house, r&b and trap, Venessa takes it a step further by supplying her own signature future house style. With the inclusion of guest performers like rapper Tay Jasper and singer Kiana Brown, each track echoes the zeitgeist of today’s electronica while also having mainstream appeal.

 

The recently released 2090 EP gives us a 4 track sample size of what Venessa can bring to the table. Whether it’s the smooth flow of ‘I Need That’ featuring Tay Jasper or the sexy baseline of ‘Whatcha On’ (definitely influenced by ‘The Whisper Song’), Michaels gives us something for the club, the afterparty, and even the after-after party on the track ‘Sexin’ with my Ex’.

So last year we posted about Galimatias saying that it was only a matter of time ’til he got his much deserved recognition. He got signed to Ultra Records and released his debut EP with them last week!!

 

His sound always manages to bring me back down to earth, but it could just be the combo of Alina’s incredibly soothing vocals. ‘Unfold’ was saved for the complete EP release, and it embodies everything I love about the pair working together. Check the single and EP below.

What So Not (now just Emoh) is one of the best DJ’s we’ve seen perform these past few years. His sets are guaranteed parties. After a well received Coachella set, he’s on his way to releasing the much anticipated Gemini EP. Of that EP, he’s already teased a track with the lovely George Maple. We expect this show will feature more from the EP.
