Hands Up Summer!

I'm alive! Sort of. I was insanely busy, and then I just lost motivation to post music, and then I didn't have internet... Yeah, I've got lots of really bad and invalid excuses. I do, however, now have some music to share with you. Over the next month (that'd be August, I realize I'm jumping the gun a bit here), I will be posting summer mixtapes, possibly along with the occasional song depending on how work goes. I made the terrible mistake of not putting a track number for this playlist, so instead of giving you the listing, I'm just going to highlight some of my favorites. Oh yes, and this one, as the title says, is called "Hands Up", so take a stab at what kind of music it is.

Download Here.
If someone can suggest a better host I'm all ears.

If you guessed electronic, you win! You can download the mixtape just like everyone else, good job. So it's a 10 track mixtape, and all of the songs on it I first heard in the month of July, but that doesn't mean that's when they came out. I lacked internet for quite sometime, but let's get into it. I have to of course love Madeon's single, Finale, he keeps lighting up the music world. Fantastic melodies, enough bass and killer vocals. Chameo's track, Hey! is a really up beat, care free, dance track that feels summery. Really shows what the young Dane is capable of.

For me I think the best track for the moment, is Air by UK producer Rouge. He does a great job of taking summer and putting it in a track. Three months from now when we all haven't seen sunlight in as many weeks, I'll turn this on and imagine being in a warm summer night. I'm also partial to the Teenage Crime remix, but that's because those vocals to me are amazing.

So there you have it, my first post in forever. Check back, I promise it will be tops a week until I post again.
Still the best way to keep track of my weird posting habits is my twitter, which is on the side. And not my twitter because I don't see the point of it for personal usage. But that's just me.

I'm out!

Destroy Me

So I'm about to go skiing, so this should be a pretty short post. Here's DJ White Lotus, a DJ based out of New York. I'll be honest, I can't claim to know much about this guy, but the way that he mixes makes me stop wondering so I just enjoy the beats. Listen loud.

I talked about Special Features, that was back when he wasn't really as huge as he is now. And for good reason, this remix, among other, have seriously been killing it. Listen loud, he destroys it.

I know, I said a short post. Have a good weekend, I'll be back to cure your Monday blues! I'm out.

Every Other Way

So my mouse died yesterday, it served me so well... I'm really sad I had to pick up another one last night to fill in for it while I decide if I want to spend some actual money on one because I'm much to big of a nerd to just buy one and go with it at this point. Any suggestions? The one I picked up has a pinky rest and it's driving me crazy so I know I don't want one of those, it makes typing feel really weird because I have to hold my mouse super cramped up. Anyways, after that aside of showing just how super cool I am... Music!!

Super ambient/whatever you want to call it for the first two songs today. We've talked about Germany Germany and how much I love him, seriously he's fantastic. His indie-electronic vibe is just great for so many reasons. So here' something by him. And to compliment that something by someone who has music quite similar, Baths.
Dance-Germany Germany
Aminals-Baths
ps,not a typo in the name

So this song was good to start with, two of the biggest names in production, not only of House and various other forms of electronic music but both have worked on some huge pop hits which is impressive simply because you have to be pretty damn good to be hired by a AAA record label. Anyways, I don't understand how but Avicii played 3 shows in Halloween and none of them were on my side of the country. He is apparently going to Vancouver for Boxing day which if that's the case there is a high possibility I'll be going to that. I hope anyways. Anyways,check out Special Features, he's going off like crazy.

Hope this will help you get to the end of the week, the promise of a nearby ski hill opening on November 24th and not early December made my week,but music always helps. I'm out guys ♥
