0534 - The Raven Has Come

So Dada Life was one of the first shows that I went to.  They blew my mind and threw an amazing show so I am always excited to see new stuff by them.  Their track One Last on Earth was pretty good, but the remix by Young Bombs really hit a good point with me.  Keeping the vocals in tact and throwing in a wonderfully tonal and catchy drop, Young Bombs really made a quality remix.  Give it a listen!
Also up today is a track from John Dahlback called Ravens.  This one is big in my book, a banger that I would love to mix and can't wait to hear in sets of others.  The bass, the tonality, the vocal samples, this one really fires on all cylinders. Plus the music video is fucking crazy.

0404 - Great Music....from League of Legends?

So recently the League of Legends youtube page released 3 different tracks called DJ Sona's Ultimate Skin Music.  All three were good, but I figured I would share my favorite two with you.  The First is a combination of The Crystal Method and Dada Life called Kinetic.  Phenominally tonal and progressive, this one is my favorite of the 3 released.  It has good progression, great heavy spots that still feel like they flow with the music, and just an overall great feeling.  The second one is called Concussive from Bassnectar and Renholder.  A lot heavier this one has a much darker feel but is still my second favorite of the released tracks.  Dirty, grimy, and very progressive, this one will have you feeling the Dark Side of Sona!

0106 - Short Week, Big Songs

          Thanksgiving week is finally upon us!  A week of short work and school weeks, family, football, and celebration.  This means that it is already wednesday for most of you! (or thursday for those done on tuesday!)  I hope that you all have plans for this day, and if you don't, then reach out and help someone who may not have the opportunity to see their family for the holiday.  Quick story, that is what happened to me last year.  I was waiting tables at a new job and had to work thanksgiving day, so I was stuck in Delaware, Ohio while my entire family was in Michigan.  I was devastated, and very sad about this unfortunate situation.  Thankfully a local fraternity brother who worked at the same restaurant reached out and suggested I join his family for Thanksgiving.  I was overjoyed just to be around people, and not spending it alone in a room with microwave food and too much beer.  It made all the difference in my life, and I hope that this inspires you to do the same.  It was such a small gesture but went such a long way and I can't thank Preston and his family enough for that.
          Even though it is a short week, it is still technically Monday which means mashup day is back once again.  Today's mashup I first heard on Hype Machine, a website devoted to streaming some of the best new original songs and popular remixes of those songs.  With a play as you browse tool, you never have to worry about the song stopping because you want to search something else.  Dada Life is one of the first live acts I saw in terms of electronic music, and they blew me away.  Seriously, their music was mind blowing and likely one of the reasons I am where I am today.  This remix is god damn incredible, seriously a great dubstep mix with the awesome power that comes behind Dada Life's original.  Have a great night and I will see you all tomorrow!
