YOLO Mentions bring attention to special
songs featured in that week’s YOLO List. Get the latest list here!

Had to get a quick post out before my midterm. This week’s been stressful as fuck, but this isn’t a place for complaining. This is a place to get raped. Yes. Raped by the massive wave of good music that I’ve been stumbling on lately. This song “Feelings for You” in particular…the original and respective remixes. A vocal sample that trumps all that I’ve ever heard in any house song (except for the Moonchild remix of “Physical”). I love the vocal samples in house songs. Always uplifting. Always trying to share the pain, telling you you’re not alone. This song will have you singing with it at the top of your lungs. No homo, but seriously. This song is sure to be a house anthem for decades to come.

This throws me off though…Avicii and Sebastien Drums took this song and undoubtedly beefed it up to have a more big room, housy feel and titled it as (Original Mix) like it’s their song. Cassius created this groundbreaking original, and I don’t want anyone to think otherwise. These pioneers of house music shouldn’t have been left out of the title, but what do I know. Regardless, I’ll tell you what I know: this song jams…and this video is tight as hell:

It’s concerts like last night’s that make considering the 8 hour solo drive to San Francisco an option. Fortunately for me, Nero‘s management was nice enough to give me two photo passes to sold out Wobbleland, and a little luck with finding decently priced tickets on craigslist set me up with a solid team for an epic show. I’ll be loading up some HQ vids and pictures I got from the event to our facebook page within the next couple days. I was working on getting an interview with Nero, but I wasn’t able to get through to the international number their management gave me. I have faith for the future, though. Maybe before their San Diego show on my birthday in February…that’ll do it.

So if you haven’t heard, Coachella car and camp spots are all sold out. I can’t remember the last time that went down, but I got my hotel room booked and ready to go, and now it’s just a waiting game. Watch out for my playlists for the event! I’ll put down the best of the best, split up by day, to make you aware of the serious talent thats going to be at the Polo Fields, and there’s a lot.
