Here’s a song that I immediately fell in love with the instrumental and then realized that’s because it samples Skrillex. Regardless of knowing that, I’m still a huge fan of “Spring Fever”, the latest single off of Chuck Revere‘s debut mixtape ”Better Late Than Never” that is set to drop this summer. The beat is by Chucks producer SkylR and samples Skrillex’s “With You, Friends”.

It’s time to get down to some Planet Booty with their latest single and video, “Treat My Body Right”. The Bay-Area electro-funk group has a sexy new dance track that I really dig. This is a group to keep an eye on as they bring the dance.
Listen, download and watch “Treat My Body Right” below. (more…)
Less than two weeks after the video release of “Starworshipper“, Futurecop! continues building buzz in their tunes with the music video release of “The Only Way” featuring Keenhouse.
Released through The Sleepover Party, a Brooklyn-based indie label, “The Only Way” has a dance-pop vibe that can get anybody dancing and singing along to the chorus. The video is pretty interesting too! Listen to “The Only Way” below.

New song from The Knocks. This was posted on their soundcloud about 2 minutes ago. It starts a bit slow but become a smooth dance song as it progresses. Listen and download “Learn To Fly” below.
Update: I just realized I heard them perform this song in January (review here) and it was one of my favorites.

Here’s Futurecop!‘s first official music video! Not only does this song make you feel like your back in the 1980′s yet, but the person who directed this video, AJ from Saint Motel, did a great job making the video feel like your having some party experience with 80′s nostalgia.

A sudden decision last Friday night brought me to a warehouse party just past Downtown LA called L.A.M.P. It was put on by PUZL clothing and even though the set up and performers were amazing, overall I was very disappointed.
We were on the list and at first they refused to let us in and demanded we pay $20! Are you kidding me?!?! We eventually got in with no charge to find a large, empty warehouse space with about 30 dudes and 10 girls (maybe). Yeah it was that bad of a ratio.
The warehouse set up was incredible though. It was sheik, trendy and not at all what I expected before arriving. It is clearly used for various types of events such as art galleries, photo sessions, etc. It had a staircase leading up to a nice kitchen and livingro0m area with a bathroom as well. An attractive girl lived in a room downstairs. This place was one of those, “you have to see it to know exactly what I am talking about” kind of thing.
We made the most of our experience however. We enjoyed a couple of drinks and listened to some great tunes. When we arrived, Special Blend of Audible Mainframe was spinning some great chill hip-hop tunes. Shortly after his set electro-pop duo Das Tapes rocked out and with style too. We have seen them on multiple occasions and they always know how to get a party started. Finally, before we decided to call it a night, PZB came on to continue the energetic vibes with a killer set. Below are my favorite tracks by each performer.
DJ Special Blend (DJSB) – “Play It Cool”
Das Tapes – “Black Ferrari”
DJ PZB – “Sophie loves Acid”
The party wasn’t all bad but it could have been so much better. Usually at warehouse parties there are more activities to do than just watch live music. There is typically things like face painting, a photo booth, arcade games… at least that’s what I enjoyed at the last warehouse party I attended, Brokechella.
Instead there was just some mediocre art work on the walls and a few clothing items from PUZL displayed. It was very easy to get bored in between musical sets.
The music was great though. Hopefully the next one won’t be as much of a disappointment.
One of my favorite electro-pop duos, DWNTWN, has created a cover to Bruce Springsteen’s hit “I’m On Fire”. I have grown very fond of this group over the last few months and really appreciate how they are able to recreate a classic into their own style so successfully. Expect big things from DWNTWN throughout the rest of this year and beyond!
One of my top two favorite Capital Cities songs, “Kangaroo Court” has been remixed by Shook and it’s FREE! Shook changes the instrumental into more of an old school 80′s vibe and I love when the horn comes in around the 1:30 mark, so sexy!

Wallpaper. is one of those acts that understands the shift in what’s popular in music (dance-pop) but defy it by having lyrics about stuff atypical to most music lyrics like a song about Blake Griffin being one of their latest examples.
Here’s their latest, “Breakfast All Day” which features rapper Action Bronson. Again, they have released a catchy (and FREE) song that we can all enjoy. Listen and download below.
By the way, if you want a song from Wallpaper. that will make you feel great, listen to “FUCKING BEST SONG EVERRR” here.
