John Talabot – Destiny (Feat. Pional)

johntalabot

Permanent Vacation just let loose “Destiny” the latest single from Balearic artist John Talabot’s upcoming fin record. Complementing the song’s Balearic rhythms, progression, and structure is a decidedly 90’s club feel in the track (listen to those fresh analogue-sounding wobbles in the bass). “Destiny” is the sort of track that’s 100% transportive. Trust, 10-15 seconds in and you’ll be totally hooked into the track’s absolutely magnetic, next level, atmosphere.

Submerse – Kowai (Stumbleine Remix)

submerse

Stumbeleine pulls the lights all the way down on this new mix for Submere’s “Kowai”. Stumbleine’s choices transform the 3 A.M. after hours club feel of the original into a world-beating/soul-wringing atmospheric track that reminds at times of Burial.

Teen Daze – Brooklyn Sunburn

By Jon Herriot

teen-daze

Whenever I listen to Teen Daze I always find myself grooving out a little bit. “Brooklyn Sunburn” starts out nice and slow, and builds into something funky. There is one continuous underlying beat but TD keeps us captured throughout the entire track with subtle changes and twists around every corner, including some haunting backing vocals from LA artist Steph Thompson. The new Teen Daze LP All of Us comes out on May 22nd, make sure you check it out!

Capital Cities – Safe and Sound (d’Anconia Remix)

By Jon Herriot

capitalcitiessafeandsound

22 year-old LA producer d’Anconia has dropped an EPIC electro-house remix of Capital Cities’ “Safe and Sound”. Already a fun track, this remix takes it the next level. Definitely makes me want to d’ance. The original version of this track was one of my jams of 2011, and I’m convinced Capital Cities is going to have another huge year.

Metronomy – The Look (TIP’s Shook Shook Rework)

metronomythelook

The Mighty M get a top of the line rework from London producer Two Inch Punch. Reading T.I.P.’s bio, our dude professes a love for the vocal tone and feeling of GOAT male singers like Sam Cooke and Donny Hathaway. We definitely dig that. We, too, can hear their influence in the deep and heartfelt sounds that T.I.P. lays into the remix. Don’t miss this one.
