Yummy GRUMmy Goodness



You've got the love (Florence + The Machine),

So I thought y'all would like the extra mid-week electro and I would like to introduce GRUM. Some of you might know him and if you don't well that's cool too, and hopefully you'll hear a couple hidden gems you haven't caught yet. This kid represents the original, machine 8-bit beeping electronic. You won't hear any other DJ pumpin' out pure robot-lovin' techno. I recommend the VERY hard remix of Kings of Leon's On Call. (KoL one of my favorite non-electro artists bteedub). And also, Friendly Fires is a great alternative-dance group from the UK and GRUM's remix is PURE DISCO awesomeness. Listen, download, do what it what you will just don't forget where you got those blaps. (slang for great song)

Doorly & Dubstep

I'M walking on a dream (Empire of the Sun),

So I know everyone missed the dubstep as did I, thus I made sure to bring a healthy dosage of wompage while keeping it classy with some very nice remixes done by dubsteppin' Doorly. This lad hails from the UK which isn't a surprise with all of the other dubsteppers from the land of original imperialism.. hah? Jokes aside, the two remixes of original songs done by Calvin Harris and Basement Jaxx, were already dance floor heaters, but Doorly has put his dubstep touch on both of these tracks just taking them to another level. The Calvin Harris remix is emersed in machine-screaming wobble while cutting up the original beat in style, and the Basement Jaxx remix has just got that extra awesomeness factor with the addition of Doorly's heavy dubstep synths. Enjoy these tunes and keep those limbs and necks loose for that wibbity wobble goodness.

Solar Symphonies w/ Dan Black & Cudder



We are your friends (Justice),

Soooooo you know when you hear a song and you THINK it's going to be reeeeal shitty but you give it a chance and turns out to be one of the dopest songs you've heard in a while? Well that's what happened to me when I heard Dan Black's Symphonies (Remix ft. Kid Cudi). Right when the song starts those hi-hat drums start pounding... just like in that damned song Umbrella by Rihanna. Try sleeping to that song on repeat on blaring loudness (I shudder when I think about hell week), but anyways once you get past the initial drums an orchestra appears out of nowhere and transforms this song into eletronica bliss. And having Cudder rap on your remix isn't bad for publicity either. Check it out, listen, download, whatever.

Here's the video, which is pretty visual, which is awesome.


Thanks to WSHH for the video.
