OK I know it’s not usual Generation Bass fare but I’m still massively on a disco/house mission so this week’s mixxxtapes are all along that theme… Alfresco Disco’s Tom Hodgson opens with some chunky freeparty disco house / Repeater brings some cosmic Italo action / Seka comes with some more techy house vibes (on a [...]
French DJ Chateaubriand crafts remixes in many ways that other producers don’t. Remixing is the art of combining different elements with an original track to create something entirely new, but often times producers fail to realize: just because it is different, doesn’t necessarily make it unique. Taking on “Lover’s Carving” by indie band Bibio, Chateaubriand pays tribute to the blissful acoustic original, converting into a dancy groovy late night track with hazy washed out electronic sounds.
Just insane… Donald Glover seems to be on a strict diet of sugar and Red Bull because with the amount of new tracks he has released in the past 4 weeks, we doubt he is getting any sleep. His latest track is ‘Silk Pillow’ featuring the four-time platinum artist, Beck. But as Stereogum points out, not just any Beck but the “surreal stream-of-consciousness half-rapping Beck of the Mellow Gold days”. Grab the free download bellow. Childish Gambino – Silk Pillow … →
To celebrate his 2 million facebook fans (even if there is some controversy on the matter), Avicii has released a brand new original titled “Two Million’. Not quite at the same caliber than some of his previous work, Two Million seems more like a collage of ideas coming together into one progressive house track. Nonetheless it is a free download and worthy of a listen. Comment below and tell us what you think.
You are about to listen to a gorgeous rendition from the exquisitely talented English singer Ellie Goulding, covering The Weeknd’s ‘High For This’.

Heartbreak comes back with Part 2 of his brilliant Cloud 9 series of sumptuous, delicious, down-tempo, late night, future bass grooves. On Part 2 he twists “Missing” by EBTG on the track “Lost & found”. On “Burial Soul”, he opts for a take on the Burial sound, haunting, melodic, atmospheric vocals pining for a lost [...]
In just a few short months, Adventure Club has gone from producers you come across, to acts you must follow. Sampling Yeah Yeah Yeahs song “Maps”, this fanatical Dj/Production Duo from Montreal takes us a monstrous dubstep ride that doesn’t feel over the top, with just enough wobbles and distortion to make the original vocals shine through. Listen and download below:
I’ve made a name for myself by giving up literally HUNDREDS of refixes and saturating the scene with dozens of studio mixes spanning several genres in the past several years. To anyone that knows my name or the ‘Thugstep’ brand, this EP won’t be enticing. This project came together in 2 hours. I have this [...]
Time travel would be less confusing if we could think of music as a free ticket on a time machine. A song has the power to transport you back to the first time you heard it, recording every last detail to a tee. Where you were, what you were doing, how you felt, maybe even the weather or the smell in the air. The journey can be quite addicting and we absolutely love contributing to healthy addictions. So just think … →

The 15-year-old Swede, Jakob Leidholms, is turning more heads than any other upcoming producer with slew of bangers, all of which have risen to the soundcloud charts. His rendition of Gotye’s Somebody I Used to Know (Before it got over-remixed the hell out) is still considered on of our favorites. Today we bring you another enigmatic free download that while it samples the overplayed ‘Set Fire To The Rain’, Jakob Liedholm is able to refurbish and deliver it just as … →

We started off the New Wave late last year and handed over the baton to Moombah-Thong who did a great job with Volume 2. We then decided that the baton should be handed over to Walmer Convenience who have done a sterling job of reppin’ Moombahton since the early days. New Wave is about kicking down [...]
