Salut,

What follows are download links to three tracks. They are all suspenseful and/or quite dancy. The first is really techno-ey…but I think it is reasonably endearing if you like bleep bloops. The second is the kind of ridiculous rave track you would expect from Afrojack, though it’s polished nicely. The last one has a bass synth I really like.

Jimmy Edgar – Black Neon Dance Floor

Afrojack – Rock The House

Phunk Investigation & Schumacher – Critical

I have been irregular in my posting, and I apologize. Getting the new EP all wrapped up is proving to be tedious business. I am able to find time to find some new music here and there though, so here are a few things I’m listening to.

First, I want to start off with this Felix Cartal track, because I feel his material has really declined in the past couple years, but this song stands out on his new album as quite above the tracks alongside it.

Felix Cartal – Domo

It’s loud, crazy, has a weird melodic buildup and then it gets you with a drop thats all in the mids. Good stuff, a real floor burner.

Next is a song that sound like a song I put in a mix a couple months ago, but alas, it is not that song…

Jay Lumen – Drop That

This is one of those songs that gets played ‘somewhere in the middle’ of a DJ set. It doesn’t get up in your face and bend you to its will, but subtly suggests that, maybe you two start a dialogue and see where it goes. (It usually goes to dancing)

My last recommendation for the week rounds out the selections quite nicely, I think. This is why I chose to put it last.

Andhim – Walkmen

This shit is OUTRAGEOUSLY CHILL. Seriously. That is probably how you will describe it to someone after you listen to it. It is crunchy, and possessive of a dangerously catchy groove. I don’t think anyone could be serious while listening to this song.

So listen to those and I’ll tell you to listen to something else next week.

Well I wasn’t blown away by much of what I found this week, but there are two I am rather fond of.

This one comes to us from DFA Records, and is a fun arpeggiated synth with lots of droning and cool sounds.
Factory Floor – Two Different Ways

It goes kind of all over the place and never gets dull, which is why I liked it.

I feel a little bit bad for only posting two songs this week, but the second song I’m posting is a song by Popof, so its like five songs, kind of.
Popof – Blue Dream

He never disappoints, in my opinion. Awesome sounds + awesome composition = awesome production.

Until next week

happy birthday mom!
