Denzal Park - Amarok



It's been a few days since I've posted guys, sorry about it. I had a close friend take the time to visit me down here in the good ole South from back home where Yankees are from. It was a good time, and I didn't have time for you. Sorry not sorry.

Anyway, here we are with a track I'm sure most of you have heard somewhere, whether in a mix or just during a random set. It's one of the most widely sampled tracks in house sets, and has been for a while now, but it was only recently that I took the time to go find the original track. I must say, I'm glad I took the time. This one is absolutely an anthem, and it's quite obvious why "Amarok" is one of the standards in house music mixes today. The synths are, for lack of a more accurate description, simply legendary, and this reminds me of something the old Porter Robinson would have came up with. Check out the track and download it below.

Trademark - Stay Free (3LAU x Ke$ha, Afrojack & Tiesto x Naian)



Hot damn. I wish there was a legitimate radio station for house music, not just pop bullshit. This is the kind of song that brings me joy to discover. I love when progressive house mashups just seem so smooth and like they should have been an original single. Listening to this just makes me feel happy. Side note, I hate Ke$ha, but any house song that samples Timber for the most part is straight fire. Check it out and DL it below.

Logic ft. Big Sean - Alright



Taking it down to a chill note. If I smoked, this would be the joint, no pun intended. Logic can, somehow, always manage to inspire me regardless of the tone of the track. This track is laid back, almost to the point of being sad and solitary, but every time I hear it, I just want to run through a wall to disprove everyone who said I couldn't do what I wanna do. This is a must DL for those of you who need a pick me up this fine hump day. Listen and do it below.


Drake - 0 To 100 (Grandtheft Bootleg)



Since I missed the daily post yesterday, I'll do two today, maybe a third if you're all good and stay quiet.... okay so I'll probably do a third anyway, but this isn't about that. This is about Grandtheft's Bootleg remix to Drake's recent hit, 0 To 100. If I had control of a radio station, plays for this remix would go from 0 to 100... real quick. See, normally I'm not a fan of DJs remixing Drake's stuff. Drake is insanely talented, and as far as I'm concerned, his stuff is too high quality to be remixed. However, there are always exceptions, and this is definitely one. Grandtheft hardly changed the song, just threw in a few extra synths, enhanced the noticeable parts of the beat, and changed a few tones. Why fix it if it ain't broke, am I right? Anyway, check it out and DL it below.


Paris & Simo - Zombie (3LAU TomorrowWorld Edit)



Well, it comes as no surprise to me that Guru brings the heavy hitters when he posts on the site. I don't know where the hell he finds the tracks he does, but I can't deny I'm grateful for his uncanny talent. However, this being said, I am going to bust my ass to figure it out and compete on his level.

So, in light of this friendly competition we have, I bring you Zombie, the 3LAU TomorrowWorld Edit. Paris & Simo originally remixed Zombie Nation's famous original track "Kernkraft 400". If you don't know the original by name, you've heard it somewhere, somehow. If you haven't heard it at least once in your life, I'm going to assume that you live happily under a rock studying earthworms for a living. Don't be that guy. Anyway, 3LAU is one of the best house DJs out there with a knack for remixing remixes, as it were, and he's one of my personal favorites. His mixtape Dance Filth Vol. 4 drops on October 13th, just a heads up, and I won't ever miss a chance to showcase an anthem of his on the site. This song is just excellent. It's smooth and hype, a rare combination in today's EDM world. The build is long, but somehow, it doesn't really detract from the upbeat nature of the track, it sort of lends it extra boom for its buck once the beat finally drops.

TLDR; I'm on an adderall binge, this song is fucking great, check the track and DL below. You won't be disappointed in 3LAU, because I never am. Enjoy.

Avicii - The Nights



We're back and so is Avicii. After so pictures leaked of him looking, well, like he was basically on his deathbed, Avicii releases his first single off of his sophomore album Stories. Avicii continues to show the world that EDM can be more than just synths with a 120 bpm baseline and shows us all that he is trying to change the face of the EDM culture. Remind you of the hit single from his last album, Wake Me Up, that took the airwaves by storm? Check it out:
