Dirty South remixes Miike Snow’s “Devil’s Work”

I first heard this track at the beginning of Dirty South’s set at the LED event that took place at the San Diego Sports Arena (one of the best events I’ve had the privileges of attending) and pretty sure it was the first time the man from Down Unda had ever dropped it live.

Yesterday, Phazing Records officially released the Dirty South remix of “Devil’s Work” from Miike Snow – named Essential New Tune for Miami Music Week by Pete Tong, Dirty South’s interpretation of “Devil’s Work” is one of the most talked about remixes of the spring and a mainstay in the sets of the world’s finest DJs.

It’s been an amazing year for Miike Snow as they continue their sold out tour in support of of the critically acclaimed sophomore album, “Happy To You.” The band follows up an amazing performance at Coachella (they played to a record-breaking crowd of over 45,000, headlining Stage 2 on Saturday) with dates in Paris, Cologne & Berlin before heading to the UK for Brixton Academy London & Manchester Ritz – their largest UK shows to date.

Dirty South is perhaps the most versatile talent currently working in the dance world. In 2011 he experienced tremendous growth on all facets of his game – As a producer he produced two of last year’s biggest hits in “Alive” (with Thomas Gold) and “Walking Alone” delivered remixes which were instant global anthems with his take on Diddy Dirty Money “Coming Home” and Skylar Grey “invisible.” In January 2012 Dirty South reunited with Thomas Gold for one of the winter’s biggest tracks, “Eyes Wide Open (ft. Kate Elsworth)”

After all the anticipation release day is finally here…it’s time to do the Devils Work.

If you like what you here, be sure to support the artists and buy the track off beatport.

Major Lazor – Get Free (Ft. Amber Coffman)

Major Lazer, currently just Diplo doing his thing less Switch, as the two recently split ways, is up to no good with a new release through maddecent records. The track, ‘Get Free’, features vocals from the chillingly sweet Amber Coffman, whose voice has been permanently camped in my dome since I first heard her on the track ‘Hold On’, and it is definitely something special. The best part is that they’re giving it away for free, head over to THIS LINK HERE to receive a free download of the above song, as well as a remix by Bonde do Role.

Kaskade & Skrillex – Lick It (Official Music Video)

The brand new official video for Kaskade and Skrillex’s juggernaut collaboration “Lick It”, released back in October 2011, is finally upon us! Complete with a hefty remix package (out now on Ultra Records) from some of the biggest-hitters to match, Kaskade continues to demonstrate his A&R excellence and prowess as he breathes fresh life into an already exquisite release.
Taken from Kaskade’s critically acclaimed long player ‘Fire & Ice’, “Lick It” serves up a growling slice of electro-infused Skrillex gold, with the strongest sense of musicality and melody that underpins each and every Kaskade production – a stunning record from two of the most in-demand producers on the planet. Ryan explained:
Collaborating with Skrillex for the track and video of ‘Lick It’ was one of the more unique opportunities I had when recording Fire & Ice,” said Kaskade.  “Skrillex and I have different styles but that is part of what made it fun.  I like doing the unexpected and this track and video is something truly distinctive.”
The ever eclectic three-track remix package, featuring unique re-licks from rising dubstep star Datsik, French house maestro Norman Doray and Italy’s very own Alex Kenji is available to buy now from iTunes.
Donned by The New York Times as the “new face of electronic dance music,” Kaskade recently wowed the EDM world with his brand new stage set up at California’s legendary Coachella festival, headlining the iconic Sahara tent on Saturday night to a truly immense reception. Continuing from this he’s just announced that this summer he’ll be taking on his biggest ever tour, with more than 50 North American shows across venues of all sizes; from ballrooms and theatres to arenas and festivals.  The initial 35 dates announced for the “Freaks of Nature” Summer 2012 Tour will begin on May 25!
With other recent news that he will be performing at the globally-renowned Lollapalooza fest in August at Grant Park in Chicago and a handful of high profile European tour dates, 2012 is shaping up to be quite the year for Ryan.

Cedric Gervais – Molly (Official Music Video)

Cedric Gervais finally translates his huge house single ‘Molly’ to an aesthetic platform. Gervais’ original production is a nice house/trance track with a ridiculously overt message. It’s for all the dirty dancers out there that don’t want their night to end. He’s done a fantastic job with the video, in its manifestation of the subject…I’d say he definitely gets the point across hah. Anyway, the track is pretty bumping and the video is downright sexy – please keep your clothes on while viewing.

The hero hunter Wynter Gordon was able to catch the one and only Superhero who had the strength to Speak Up — Laidback Luke.

OUT NOW:
on Beatport http://bit.ly/SpeakUpB

Laidback Luke’s long-awaited single featuring Wynter Gordon – “Speak Up” has been smashing the Beatport charts since its release on the 12.03.2012! With Laidback Luke’s sick drops and Wynter Gordons chart topping credentials this track is ready to explode and make you #speakupabout anything you have ever been afraid to say — like the 2000 people on Twitter!

The video shows Laidback Luke as a superhero which has been caught by Wynter Gordon. She tries to kick a confession out of him so that she can take over his superpowers. Laidback Luke won’t give up with his infamous drops and Wynter Gordon’s threats will not make him SPEAK UP!

Already well known for a multitude of collaborations with various big names including David Guetta, Diplo and A-Trak, Laidback Luke more recently hooked up with Sander van Doorn on the stellar track Who’s Wearing The Cap, a mash up of trance, progressive and electro. Luke’s latest collaboration with Arno Cost and Norman Doray “Trilogy” went successful on charts in no time. 2011 also saw Luke enjoying chart success on UK Top 40 hit, Natural Disaster with Example, as well as his work with Steve Aoki and the master of crunk Lil’ Jon on Turbulence that took over Radio 1 airwaves.

Never one to shy away from an edgier sound, Laidback Luke injects a high dose of energy to Speak Up with a stomping build-up throughout the first half of the track that leads to a softer, suspenseful melody, supported by Wynter Gordon’s vocals. Luke then goes full steam ahead and launches into another intense, aggressive build up to see the track through to the end. The perfect recipe for a chart crossover club anthem!

In addition to working with fellow stalwarts of the electronic music industry, Luke has also remixed stellar pop acts from Black Eyed Peas, David Guetta, Calvin Harris, Tiesto, MSTRKRFT ft. John Legend, Dizzee Rascal, Avicii and Moby to name a few. Its not just producing music that has keeps Luke busy. With his very own Super You&Me tent at Creamfields and a residency at Cream Ibiza last summer where he hosted the Mixmag Terrace on six dates, we can only wonder when he ever has any time to be “Laidback”..!

The Speak Up is soon to be followed by the remixes from Chris Lake, Mark Knight, Oliver Twizt, Moska, Das Kapital and Calvertron & Will Bailey who all put their own unique stamp on the track. The remixes package is out on the 26th of March via Beatport.
