0426 - Shut Up and Drive

Today's track is one that is very chill but also has a nice heavy side to it.  JPB and Mendum (two artists I knew absolutely nothing about before this track) come together to deliver a really mellow track that hits hard at high points to bring up the intensity another notch.
Also up today is a Synthwave track from Paul Hadame called Flash Car.  This one is really groovy and uses the synths really nicely in order to bring a very smooth feel.  They don't feel overpowering like some other artists tend to do with synths, instead they flow into the song and give it a feel of fluidity.  Give both of these tracks a listen and let me know what you think!

JPB & Mendum - Feelings

Paul Hadame - Flash Car

0425 - Killer Collab

Today's track comes from two of my favorite Monstercat artists, Tristam and Braken.  Both have put out incredible work solo, but now they come together to make a truly memorable piece.  Far Away has a lot of energy both chill and high, and though it may not have catchy chords, it really gets in your head.  Seeming very happy, this piece really got me excited and is for sure in my top 25 playlist.

Tristam and Braken - Far Away

0424 - Swing into the Weekend!

Electro swing is one of my favorite genres!  Its just so dancey and fun, it gives a whole new swing to swing music.  This one is from 11 Acorn Lane and it really made me happy, it has a great mix of classic swing and electro influences without one overpowering the other.  A phenomenal song to get you in the right mood for the weekend!

0423 - First Things First, Be the Realest

Just one more day til friday!  HOLD ON!  Also, electro swing week is coming this month.  Not sure when, but it will be a thing I promise you!  Today's track is a remix from Wax Matif and Gladiator, one that is future house and has a great flow.  Its got a great chill sound, but could also be easily used as a club track to bring the intensity down a little bit.  Hard hitting percussion and a driving heavy bassline give this one a very dancy vibe, one that I will be sure to play!

0422 - One Time Friendzone Exception

The first time I heard Ghosts from Mako I was hooked, the song has effectively been stuck in my head for longer than I'd like to admit.  When I saw a new remix of it, I was extremely excited and the song lived up to my expectations.  The song keeps the original power that comes from the vocals and Friendzone throws in nice builds and a really nice drop to give the song a club vibe.

0421 - Can you feel the dance?

Monstercat's new category Indie Dance has really been making me happy over the past few weeks.  Sorry this one is kinda rushed as I am in between meetings all day.  Both 7 Minutes Dead and WRLD & Richard Caddock released stellar Indie Dance songs in the past few days.  While both have a similar sound, the track from 7 Minutes Dead seems much more chill to me but the track from WRLD and Caddock seems much more dancey and party worthy.  Give them both a listen and let me know what you think of them!

7 Minutes Dead - The Divide

WRLD & Richard Caddock - See you

0420 - Back to the Grind

First of all, that song Gold Dust by Galantis that started beauty in music week of right has been stuck in my head non stop for a week and I have no complaints.  Galantis did a 1 hour mix for the song and it is pretty killer, for sure worth a listen.  A solid hour of Galantis' favorite tracks that are mixed together incredibly well!

Monday Funkday is back with a really smooth Glitch Hop track from Auvic called Heal Me.  This one is smooth and features a lot of tonality from a beautifully played piano, mixed with a perfect amount of glitch and bass.  It's not catchy, but you can tell it wasn't made to be.  It was made to be tonal but unpredictable, and it executes perfectly!
