Wednesday - Bangers
Two Killer tracks for you today. The first is a future bass track from Haywyre called I Am You. The glitched out vocals really give it a strange feel but the smooth nature of the bass and the little bit of glitch added really makes it a unique and pretty track. Plus the progression really made me happy. Enjoy!
Second is more of a chill track from Hellberg called Synchronize. The build is chill as hell and the vocals are seriously beautiful, and the drop is perfect. Not too much and still has a chill air to it, while coming in heavier than the rest of the track. I hope you enjoy this one, because it has been playing almost daily for me!
The first track that I have for you on this Tuesday is the Achtabahn remix of Milky Way's track Bottle of Jack. This track is amazing, such good groove and great vocals that mimic the beat perfectly. I love everything about this track and I hope that you enjoy it as much as I do!
Back in the normal swing and feeling good, we start off another wonderful week of music! Let's kick things off with an amazingly funky track from RetroVision called Happy Hour! This track has the feel good vibes, the wonderful beauty, mixed with a little dash of 8-bit, and a plentyful helping of groove. Also up today is a strange compilation track featuring.....Sean Paul and Yolanda Be Cool? This track is catchy as fuck and has a great groove to it but I can not understand a word of the vocals. The beat is typical Yolanda Be Cool, and I am so glad to see them back making new music! Let me know what you think of this one because I honestly don't know what I think about it overall!
Tchami is a legend and I was so pleased to meet him on the final night of Holy Ship. His originals are mind blowing and his remixes just come into the realm of legendary status. For sure one of the people I was most excited to meet, especially after seeing his amazing sets on the boat and the beach! I have two tracks for you, an original and a remix. The first is Tchami's original After Life, this one has a killer drop that I'm pretty sure I lost it to on the boat. The second track is Tchami's remix of AlunaGeorge's track, You Know You Like It. This was the first remix of the song I ever heard, and now it's the only one that sounds right. Enjoy and see you next week!
So I honestly knew very little about Rezz before going on this trip, but I can honestly say her first set was one of the best I have ever seen in my entire life. Her logo is killer, she's about as adorable as a person can be, and her signature DJ move just got the entire crowd hyped up every time she dropped a song. I will for sure be keeping an eye on her in the coming months, but it was so wonderful to meet her (plus she was talking to Porter Robinson during the M Machine's set so I'm super jealous of that. I honestly couldn't pick just one song of hers after coming back from Holy Ship and binge listening to her music so here are three of her tracks that I really love; Serenity, Negative, and Lost.
On my adventures during Holy Ship I had the pleasure of meeting Jauz for the first time and The M Machine for the second! Jauz was honestly not someone I knew a whole lot about before setting sail, but his sets were just purely magical. His flow is beautiful, and his big bass sound really set me off on the dance floor! Here is one of his great tracks titled Feel the Volume. The M Machine I have gotten to know for their smooth as butter transitions during sets, just making them feel continuous and stunningly fluid. No one song I can pick can exhibit this, but instead I will just throw you guys one of my favorite songs of theirs, Tiny Anthem.
Thomas Jack was one of the people I as most excited about going into Holy Ship so of course I almost peed myself when I met him coming out of the buffet on night 1 and on the beach party on Day 2. Being basically one of the founders of tropical house, I have loved his music from the first time I heard it. And he was such a cool guy too! So I will share with you two of my favorite Thomas Jack songs, an amazing remix and the best original tropical house songs since the genre was founded.
The first is the Of Monsters and Men track Little Talks, a masterpiece of a track if there ever was one. Working so well with the vocals and original sounds of Of Monsters and Men, and then adding his signature Tropical house love to the track.
The original that I would like to share with you is Rivers, a really beautiful and super vibe heavy song that just stirs up a lot of emotions whenever I hear it. It is just such a well put together track that is very dancey, with a vocal sequence that adds perfectly to the tropical sounds. Give it a listen and I hope you enjoy this wonderful artist as much as I do!

So I had the pleasure of meeting both Destructo and Felix da Housecat during my adventures on Holy Ship! We saw Destructo both at the preparty and he did a Sunrise Sermon from 6-9am. He absolutely killed it, playing his signature Techno (Nobody Listens to Techno) and some other truly amazing tracks. So I will share Techno in case you haven't heard it and one of my favorites, Dare You to Move.
Felix da Housecat played an incredible set on the beach party, it was groovy it was beatiful, and I was grooving so hard. He was also such a nice guy, and I served him a slice of pizza! Here is my favorite Felix track called Neon Human
Armada has been surprising me with their Deep House releases lately, bringing the company back into the positive eye from my point of view. TRU Concept's latest track Hear Me Out is a really great Deep House track that has just about everything you could ever want. Great vocals that go throughout the song instead of just leading up to the drop, great tonality over all of the instrumentation, and just an overall great deep feel! Give it a listen and enjoy!
You guys know I love SCNDL, almost everything they have put out has amazed me and the new track Meant To Be is a wonderful Future and Bounce Hybrid track. The melodic tonality of and big bass really come together to make a phenomenal song! Enjoy!
We also invite Caravan Palace to join us on this day full of Bangers. Their track Lone Digger is a really groovy and just phenomenal, plus the music video is strange as fuck. The groove from this song reaches the god damn starts and just makes me want to dance in my office while I type this post. Tell me what you think!
First track up today is a bit of a strange song from Bali Bandits called Mr. Meow, I don't know what it is about the song but it has a strange cartoon/anime vibe to it. It sounds so playful and I honestly love every second of it. The tonality is wonderful, I don't really get the vocal sample or have any idea what the words are 90% of the time, but I think that adds to it a bit! Enjoy!
Today's track is from BUNT called Old Guitar, and I love the vibe that this one throws out. Feels a bit like Avicii, and the guitar and banjo that are featured give it a very Of Monsters and Men vibe. I can for sure see myself dancing to this one, but it is a bit more on the indie and pop side. Don't miss this one though!

Update: I also found a folk mix from BUNT if you enjoyed the song above!
