deadmau5 drops off 2 Unreleased Song Previews + Ultra Music Festival 2013 Live Set

Posted in Bangin, Mix / Playlist by nick | Tags: , , , , , , , ,

Deadmau5 continued his regular routine of putting out unreleased previews of his upcoming tracks as he experiments with them. First off we get a 2 minute tease of “moog bass + modular” which is a smooth melodic track reminding me a little of his anthem Strobe. Then next up we hear a change of pace with “Assume Control” which hits us with a dutch house styled ending that Deadmau5 refers to as “jacked afro crap”, which he claims was unintentional. These both keep us on our toes for new Mau5.

Also included is his set from the Weekend 2 of Ultra Music Festival down in Miami a few months back. He played a suprising set spanning from some classic hits to some techy underground cuts. All in all it’s a great balanced mix that should have Mau5 fans in a frenzy. Check out the full track-list below. Enjoy!

Avicii – New Album Promo Mix 2013 : Including New Album Tracks

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

Avicii played main stage at this year’s Ultra Music Festival and through down a contreversial set debuting tracks off his new album. He collaborated with artists such as country star Mac Davis, bluegrass musician Dan Tyminski, singer Audra Mae, soul artist Aloe Blacc, Incubus guitarists Mike Einziger and Ben Kenney. His set got critsized for having too much of a country  and live influence. The live instrumentation may have been a little to overwhelming for the DJ mold seen at Ultra. The funniest part is that people hated on Avicii when he would played “Levels” non stop and other typical house tracks, and now hate on the guy for stepping outside of the box and bringing in live instrumentation to house music.

He just let loose “Promo Mix 2013″ featuring a lot of the tracks he debuted at his live set. The mix basically sounds the Avicii you know with some adiditonal live elements. It spans from progressive house to some gritty electro action. Loving what I have heard so far. Listen and let us know what you think? Enjoy!

Bro Safari just gave us the good graces to finally feature his massive live set from down in Miami at Ultra Music Festival. He was one of the artists to fully shut  down the first ever TRAPPED stage, for the first time in Ultra’s history as a festival. He made sure to fill the set with countless unreleased tracks from himself and friends. He laid down a great mixture of Trap, Moombahton, Electro, and even some Hardstyle. He mixed so flawlessly and with such speed, you never had a chance to catch your breathe going from song to song.

Anyone unaware of what a Steve Aoki live concert is like, have no fear and look above. He is not your typical DJ, he will stand behind the tables mixing about half the time, and spend the other half riding the crowd with a raft, slamming them with cakes, and untradtional DJ moves. He somehow has managed to make all of these things be what defines him and his live show. You can see it in all his glory on one of the biggest stages he has ever played, main stage at the 2013 Ultra Music Festival. You can watch the entirety above, you can also listen to the mix below. He dropped quite a few new tracks in this mix, see the track-list below. Enjoy!

Kaskade was another amazing DJ who threw down an incredible main stage performance at this year’s 15th Anniversary Ultra Music Festival in Miami, Florida.

He never lets you hear his tracks the way you would at home, and myself and all of his fans really love that.
