Posted in Events by nick | Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

So this dropped last night.. and wow… now that should please just about everybody. Well still not sure how I feel about them recreating the same festival for two weekends in a row. But I defintely can’t miss it, and you can count on me and part of the TSIS team to be out there, for at least one, maybe both weekends

For the electronic world, it’s got Swedish House Mafia, Afrojack, Avicii, David Guetta, Kaskade, Madeon, Martin Solveig, Justice, Calvin Harris, Nero, Dada Life, Porter Robinson, Datsik, Alesso, Flux Pavillion, Girl Talk, Dj Shadow, Zeds Dead, Noisia, and so many more. On top of the live bands; Radiohead, The Black Keys, Bon Iver, The Shins, Florence + The Machine, La Roux, and countless others. Then for the headliner that might turn the most heads, Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg headlining the third day.

Something has always came up in the past years, can’t wait to make it to my first, and second Coachella this year

For those of you unaware, Coachella is one of the nations biggest music festival with anticipated numbers of over 90,000 people per day. It takes place in Coachella valley, California, and has grown to become one of the nation’s biggest parties. Their website is crashed, I’m guessing because of traffic overload, will update with info and ticket links soon

The Knocks – The Prize (Jakob Liedholm X The Knocks Remix) : New Swedish House / Indie Remix

Posted in Bangin by nick | Tags: , , , , , , , ,

The Knocks are a group that I’ve been continuing to see more and more remixes of. Their poppy indie sound is perfect forgetting reworked into dubstep and house BANGERS. Well now we get a Avicii styled house anthem of their track ‘The Prize’. This remix is done by newcomer Jakob Liedholm.Liedholm is a very young 15 year old swedish house producer that is extremely talented. Being that young, and having a sound as good as this, should lead to a very bright future (Watch out Avicii). The piano, vocals, melodies, and bass all work together so well to create a great house anthem. They through me the instrumental as well, so DJ’s and producers have fun with it. Enjoy!

GRiZ – Shogun : Must Hear Filthy Funky Dubstep BANGER

Posted in Bangin by nick | Tags: , , , , , , ,

Getting news about a new GRiZ track is like hearing you’ve got a christmas present coming, that you already know is going to be amazing. He never seems to disappoint me with every track and remix. Today I’ve got his first venture into the super heavy styled dubstep. It’s called Shogun, and it’s pretty epic. It’s cool seeing GRiZ jump around from genre to genre, and doing it well. His Kanye West Moombahton remix was so catchy, and now he makes this. The drop really reminds me of the heavy Doctor P sound, and continues being sick all the way through. Cant’ even wait for what’s next, I hear he’s got a full album coming soon. Turn it up, enjoy!

1. Keystone State of Mind Mixtape






When I moved to Boulder to attend the University of Colorado at Boulder I got exposed to some of the sickest music around. My name is Nick Guarino and I love music and especially showing people new music. Making mix cd's for friends my whole life led to the founding of Thissongissick.com with which I hope to broaden everyone's musical taste beyond the radio. There is a large amount of freely distributed music that far too little people know about. This site showcases and debuts some of best up and coming as well as already established artists, rappers, DJ's, producers and more. Through the process TSIS has found it self focusing on exposing the electronic and hip hop music scenes. Check out some music you've never heard, I'm sure you'll find some songs that are pretty sick. Enjoy!






We work with the artists to spread they're music. Most of the artists choose to give away their music for free to spread it to as many ears as possible. Please support the artists by purchasing tickets to see them live in concert and what music they do have for sale!
