Remix Friday already dropped, but I couldn’t let Armand Van Helden‘s take on “Holding On” wait until next week. All respect to the brothers Lawrence, but the legendary dance producer intensified the build up for a worthy remix of their latest single in ways that challenge the original’s surpemacy. Just in time for your weekend […]
Amedi, Iraq. April 2015 via TRAVELSTACHE 70’s all weekend in Michigan is worth celebrating and there are plenty of remixes to soundtrack those celebrations. The Knocks continued their run of bootleg hits with their take on the semi-hilarious track “White Iverson” by Post Malone, Figgy proved I’m still not sick of Usher’s “Climax” on a […]
I wouldn’t say 2014 was a down year for albums, but aside from the top 10, many 2014 releases probably wouldn’t have bested last year’s top albums.

A month after the last edition, I’m hoping this will be my typical output. This usually isn’t Dance/Electro-fest, but it seems a fitting way to close out the summer. Fiery collaborations from Tiesto w/Tegan & Sara (“Feel It In My Bones), David Guetta w/KiD CuDi (“Memories”), Ducksauce aka DJ A-Trak and Armand Van Helden (“Anyway”) […]
