Over the last few years, I’ve found the progressive house genre has been snatched up by the dutch-house sound and when combined with a plethora of terrible new entries, I had almost given up hope on the future of the progressive house genre. Then I found this track. While I don’t love Pierce Fulton’s other offerings, I do love this one, and the fact that the focus harks back to the genre’s roots with a depth of chord progression and harmony rather than the dutch-house minimalism. The future looks bright for progressive house if this is the new direction producers are taking. Enjoy, and grab a copy here.
WDL – With Blood
A really cool electronica or maybe dubstep track. Tough to nail down the genre on this one. Regardless, it has some really cool vocal samples that are twisted all around to amazing effect. Grab a copy for yourself here and check it out below.
BMotion – Feelings feat. Jon Lilygreen
First I’ve heard of BMotion, but I’d be really surprised if it’s the last. A great soulful and rolling Drum and Bass track from this UK based producer. Great stuff, a really fun tune. Grab it for free here (make sure to get the larger file size on offer, the first listing is only around 2MB and terrible quality).
Clark – Christo
The house music pioneer Mark Bell (LFO, Bjork, Depeche Mode) passed away earlier this month and I just came across yet another example of his amazing work that I had to share. It’s unbelievable that this track came out in 1995. It still sounds fantastic today. Check it out below and grab a copy of your own here.
Sia – Chandelier (Sara Bareilles Live Cover)
My friend Zia recommended I take a listen to the live cover of Sia’s “Chandelier” by Sara Bareilles. I’ve always been a fan of her music, but she knocks this one clear out of the park. Despite listening to her for so long, for some reason I never really knew Sara Bareilles had such a fantastic voice. Chills watching this one, seriously.
Boogee Brotherz – Rule My World (Mike Newman Private Re-work)
Time to get back to your funky house roots. The classics! Simple and beautiful, it’s new but doesn’t seem like it. I love this one. Grab it here.
David Moleon – San Salvador
It took me awhile to finally post this one. I wasn’t sure if it was appropriate for the site, but in the end, it’s music, and it does make me smile every time I watch the video. The song eventually sticks in your head too, although it isn’t really my favorite genre. Anyways, the track accompanying the video is “San Salvador” by David Moleon, and you can grab it without the funny dancing here. Enjoy!
Tom Petty – Free Fallin’ (John Mayer Live Cover)
I absolutely loved this track when I first heard it a few years back. An amazing re-working of a classic from Tom Petty. Regardless of how you felt about the original, I bet you’ll enjoy this version. Grab a copy for yourself here.
Flight Facilities – Two Bodies feat. Emma Louise (HNNY Remix)
I’m amazed at how HNNY was able to take an already melancholy and chill electronica track and re-work it to have the same genre and feel of the original but an altogether different (and better) sound at the same time. It’s subtle and super crafty work, my hat is off. Check it out here.
Penguin Prison – Calling Out
A really cool new track from NYC based Penguin Prison (Chris Glover). Known mostly for his remixes, I think he’s got some serious credentials in the original track department as well. I guess I’d describe the music as indie-dance or maybe electro-pop. Anyway that you want to describe it, listen more with your own copy here.
