0678 - Welcome Back, I've Missed You All

I'm hoping this is the start of more daily updates.  My life has been absolutely insane lately with my job search living situation, and life is just chaotic.  But I realized I wasn't giving myself time to relax, and writing these posts has always been one of my favorite parts of the day. So lets get thing goin again.

Faded by Alan Walker is one of my favorite songs, Period.  Now, finally, everyone is getting their hands on it for the official remixes.  One of my favorites is Tiesto's Deep House remix.  Right from the beginning I could tell I would love this.  The intro was so smooth and just went perfectly into the main sequence.  Smooth, beautiful, and my favorite remix (but still behind the original and the restrung version).
I've said many times how much I respect people that can play music live using beatpads, the memorization and coordination is incredible.  I love watching people play on them and I feel the music they produce has so much more power because you aren't just watching someone push play.  This mix is from Nev highlighting some 250 songs from the Youtube channel MrSuicideSheep.  It is incredible, enjoy!

0495 - Summer Adventures

First up is a sick beatpad mashup coming from M4SONIC.  I have so much for respect for DJs that use beatpads, not only is it visually appealing but I see it as most amazing form of performing electronic music.  Not only is there so much memorization and coordination, but so much coordination (I also fucking love the Aziz Ansari sample in this one).  Give it a listen, appreciate the art, and let this mashup into your ear holes.

Also up on today's playlist is a Future Bass track from Hyper Potions and Subtact titled Adventures.  It has a really heavy 8-bit feel to it, that transforms into a really beautiful melody.  Its nothing to be danced to and I can't really see it being performed, but christ it sounds good leaning back in a chair with headphones on.  Enjoy these and I will see you back here tomorrow!

0386 - Beatpad Beauty

One of my favorite and likely pivotal tracks in my interest in electronic music was Madeon's live beatpad mashups.  Since then I love finding new ones because the precision, timing, and dexterity are just amazingly impressive in my book.  This one comes from Exige using two beatpads, synched with some pretty cool trigger lights to boot.  Give it a watch and a listen and enjoy!
