0472 - No Sorrow, Only Joy

Another Banger in the unusual style (yes I know my boner for tropical house is huge, and I am trying to limit how much gets posted).  When Divine Sorrow was first released, it came off as generic and kinda empty.  The remixes have been coming off in such a different light though, such as this one from Klingande.  This is a killer remix, that has so much power and energy.  For sure worth of mixes, festivals, and sets.  Hope you enjoy it!

0403 - Truly Divine

First up is one of the few requests to post songs to the blog that I have ever gotten.  One of my close friends asked me what I thought of the new Avicii song, and I hadn't heard it yet so I figured I would review it here and then let you listen for yourself.  The first thing I noticed about Divine Sorrow was the feature of Wyclef Jean, an artist I never pictured having a collaboration with Avicii.  His voice fits the music very well though, low tones, and bit distorted.  Overall not a bad song, the lyrics are a bit cheesy though.  I hope this is one of many tracks that are good off of Avicii's upcoming album (this year if I'm not mistaken).  Oh well, give it a listen and tell me what you think of Avicii and Wyclef John combination!

Also up today is a truly awe inspiring track from Mr. Fijiwiji.  This one had me amazed the first time I heard it.  It never hits hard, it never blows your mind, it's just a catchy relaxing but driving track.  The vocals really add something special to the flow, Danyka Nadeau's voice is beautiful and I will for sure have to look up more music that she has done!  Give it a listen and just relax ^_^.

ALSO: I am likely making a return to Facebook.  It may be a new profile, or a completely revamped current one, I haven't decided!

0200 - Monday Funday

First of all, let me say thank you.  I never imagined that this blog would get such a positive response like it has.  200 posts and months later, I still look forward to doing this blog every day and it's all thanks to the feedback and loyalty of all of you.  I love you all for helping me with my dream of sharing music and now finally recording my own stuff (more mixes coming very soon I promise).  I owe this all to you so thank you, thank you all so much.

Since we have had this format for some time I want to know what you guys think about it.  Do you like the set days we have?  Would you like some removed or added?  Let me know in the poll that will be up on the facebook group or as a comment on this post.  Until the feedback comes in, we will keep going with the normally scheduled week.  I have been a big fan of beatpad mashups ever since I first saw the live mix of Madeon's Pop Culture (which you can watch Here if you have never seen it).  This one comes from Shawn Wasabi and is a Skrillex Recess mashup that is kinda chaotic but pretty great overall.  There is a free download but the visuals make the track for me.  Check it out!

The second is just a cool combination of Avicii's "Wake Me Up" and Men at Work's "Land Down Under".  A pretty good mashup that really isn't anything incredible, but its something pretty cool that I figured I would share with you all.

0180 - Back to Basics

You are all going to hate me for this one but I have to, IT JUST NEEDS TO HAPPEN.  This is a ridiculous mashup featuring the musical styling of Rick Astley, Avicii, and Chumbawumba.  It's  a near flawless mashup in my opinion, seamlessly combining these songs into something that truly blew my mind.  Check it out and don't get mad at me for rick rolling all of you.  Have a great Monday, and I will see you back here tomorrow!

0113 - Music Mends Even the Deepest Wounds

Usually I am not a huge fan of trance, but every once in a while a trance song comes along that just melts my heart.  It started with my friend Sandy, and all the trance music she gave me at our huge music swap when we worked together last summer.  True, this one does have some very house elements, but still has the chill trance feel that just makes music flow seamlessly and has a very natural feeling.  If there is a better side of trance I plan to find it, because if there is more like this then I really want to find it, and trust me you will be the first ones I share it with if I do.

Omnia feat. Everything By Electricity - Bones

Bonus Track: This one I just couldn't wait.  Everyone loved Wake Me Up by Avicii because it was different and highlighted the awesome direction that electronic music could take if it really wanted to get away from stuff like big house and minimal trance.  Well his album True is perfectly a reflection of this (If you haven't heard his new album you can stream it here), and this remix is a nice reflection of the two different worlds, the house and synth world mixed with the country twang style that mixes so well with it.

Avicii - Hey Brother

073 - Twin Bangers

For the first time since I have started this blog, I have a massive backlog of music.  Literally 2 playlists with 30+ songs in each, so I have decided that all the rest of this week is going to be double week.  Double bangers today, two more songs on thursday, and at least two free tracks on friday.  I have had a bit of time and have been going through a lot of songs lately, so I want to share them all with my loyal listeners and first timers as well!

This first banger is one that comes to us from the King of mainstream bangers these days, Avicii.  This is one of his older songs, Fade Into Darkness, and this remix came out a while ago but old stuff can be just as good as new.  This is one of the few times with Avicii where I like the remix better than the original (the only other is with Levels, because there are about 10 great remixes of that track).  It gives it a very House feel with a lot going on at once, but Albin Myers brings it together near flawlessly.  How do you think this stacks up to the original? (trying to facilitate some discussion going in the comments).

The next banger for the day comes from Spinnin' Records (a staple in the genres this blog specializes in), and they have once again put out something that I am a little sad I found 2 years after its release.  I have heard the original version of Spencer & Hill's track "Believe It", and wrote it off because I wasn't really that impressed with it.  While compiling some playlists I came across this remix that slipped through the cracks in my music.  I am so glad I found this remix by Cazzette because I can't stop listening to it.  The chord progression during the build blows my mind and mixes nicely into the drop.  Enjoy it and I will see you back for a double dose on Thursday!
