This is massive. Ode To Oi was undoubtedly one of the biggest releases recently, with everyone recognising the ‘Oi’ all over the dance scene. Will Sparks has gone ahead and added a new gritty take on this anthem.

The outcome? This piece of magic

Empire of the Sun: Alive (CiRRO Remix)

Empire of the Sun’s indie track ‘Alive’ has been receiving huge remix treatment, notably from Zedd as well as many others. However, as I went through our inbox today, I came across this stunning submission from CiRRO. I love this remix because so much of what made the original amazing is retained; the heady vocals, catchy melody etc.

But then CiRRO adds his own heavy electro spin on the track, making this into a big room anthem. Definitely deserves more views.

Lovely little remix here from Kyogi, heralding in the Summer vibes. The jumpy little chords will infect you with delight, and the whole song just feels like getting a hug from Big Bird in Sesame Street.

Lindsey Stirling – A New Kind of Artist.

May 19th, 2013 by WhiteNoise
Respond

LS photo LS_zpsdf7bc27c.jpg

Lindsey is one of the most musically fascinating characters on the EDM scene. Her style is one of complete uniqueness, talent and allurement. What on earth does she do? I hear you ask. She uses classical violin to create dubstep/chillstep tracks.

That may interest you, it may fill you with indifference, perhaps even distain. Whatever it does, its irrelevant. She takes the violin to new levels that you could not perceive in your mind. You want proof? Here you go.

She has also put some stunning slants on more famous tracks, including the classic Radioactive by Imagine Dragons. I have to say for official reasons that the Radioactive cover was not an official release by her, but she did put it up on her youtube, and the Soundcloud version is just a fan made version. Exactly the same, but fan made.

Another cover here, this time of Thrift Shop. I don’t mean to cause any controversy, but  I much prefer her version to the original (that is of course just my opinion).

Anyway, there you go, an extremely brief outline of Lindsey Stirling. Completely unique. Completely mind blowing. I only stumbled upon her yesterday, and after journeying through all of her music, I was compelled to share her talent. Be sure to check out her Youtube for more.

Stars Above: Higher Than The Sky EP

I am majorly embarrassed that I let the new EP from Stars Above, aka Josh Bull, slide past me for this long. Containing his first two original releases in the last 18 months, the EP is stunning. Composed of two euphoric tracks, Higher Than The Sky and Daybreak, this EP really feels like something you can smash on during a set and watch the levels of love rise in the room. I couldn’t choose a favourite out of the two tracks; the piano lead melodies building up to the breakdown in both spun my heart.

Get your hands on this EP now. It will be the best thing you do for a long time.

Parachute Youth: Can’t Get Better Than This (Bodhi Remix)

Let’s talk Summer. Blue skies, long days, amazing memories. Those kind of moments need a soundtrack, and luckily Bodhi is willing to provide that for you with this incredible deep house remix of Parachute Youth. Personally, the best thing about this track for me was that is is nearly 6 minutes long. The saddest thing is that it is not out yet.

I will struggle to pull through until it’s release on June 16th.

Enjoy this piece of audio sunshine

Kanye West ft Estelle: American Boy (Wilfred Giroux Edit)

With all this hype around the new Kanye West, I always have time for remixes of his old stuff. Wilfred Giroux adds a nice deep house touch on this song, using Estelle’s vocals beautifully. Kanye’s verse is slick and flows well, making this a little edit you should definitely get your hands on.

Bastille : Laura Palmer (Kat Krazy Remix)

Bastille photo Bastille_zps7d81831b.jpg
I have a horrible suspicion that due to their strong British/London routes, many of our american readers are not familiar with Bastille. Over here in the UK, they have recently blown up. They’re music is literally everywhere, and for good reason. If you want a taste of their sound, take a listen to Flaws. To me, that song kind of defines them as a band.

Anyway, here is an awesome remix of their massive Indie/Pop hit Laura Palmer. Remixed by Kat Krazy, it has gained massive attention, with support from the likes of 4Music and MTV. KK also remixed undoubtedly Bastille’s biggest track,  Pompeii – Pompeii (Kat Krazy Remix)

Phenomenal remix from KK. As he would say, keep it Krazy.

Borgore. Does this guy even need an introduction? If you haven’t heard of him, crawl out of the dark hole in which you have been living and listen up. With lyrics from some of his songs that make Prince look like a monk writing hymns, Borgore is a big deal. Here are 5 reasons to love this munchkin even more.

Really great bit of peaceful progressive house here. The world seems to be full of incredibly talented young people, and CMA is one of them. At just seventeen he is already producing incredible tracks like this. Show him some love at his Soundcloud.
