RL Grime – Because of U [Trap]: Music Video & Free Download

Because of U

Fairfax, VA – Clockwork aka RL Grime brings us his new stuff, “Because of U”

Chill, slow paced and filled with relaxing pads and rolling light melodies, “Because of U”, is a pretty nice change of pace from “regular” trap. It’s not boring, it’ll just have you “flexin'” and “cookin'” (forms of dancing to trap — if you’re not twerking) at a slower pace. Best of all, the track is free! Just download it at RL Grime’s site.

The new trap single comes accompanied by a music video too. The neon light spelling out “We Did It” is a collective that includes RL Grime and others like Shlohmo, Ryan Hemsworth, Groundislava, D33J, Nick Melons, Juj, 2KWTVR and SUS BOY. The dark music video is pretty simple, a gradual zoom on the neon sign with smoke surrounding it — don’t forget the model on top of the DJ set up.

Tiësto Ft. Disco Fries – iTrance (Original Mix) [Freebie]

Tiesto Disco Fries iTrance Cover

Fairfax, VA – After joking about making trance, Tiesto has finally done it in collaboration with the Disco Fries.

Tiesto bet his fans if he became DJMag’s #1 DJ of the year, he’d release a trance tune for old time’s sake. The results of the voting came in and the #1 spot was grabbed by fellow Dutch DJ, Hardwell. Despite this, Tiesto still released the track as a “Thank You” to all those fans who voted anyways.

Jack U makes its debut in San Diego

Fairfax, VA – This past weekend, electronic music power houses, Diplo and Skrillex, joined forces for the first time as Jack U at the Mad Decent Block Party 2013 in San Diego, California.

Jack U was announced a few months ago by Diplo as a duo between himself and Skrillex. The pairing of two big producers isn’t a new thing for the two; Diplo with Jillionaire as Major Lazer and Skrillex with Boys Noize as Dog Blood. These duos have formed to create unique music and to create a new sound for those fans who have grown tired of “the same thing” over and over again.

The duo also dropped a few new tracks during their set at MBP13 San Diego, all of which so far have no I.D. Take a listen and let us know what you think.

Audrio Releases His Music Video “Dreaming Wide Awake”

Fairfax, VA – Audrio, Avicii’s protege, has released a music video to his new single “Dreaming Wide Awake”

Contrary to what is the “norm” in EDM, Audrio’s electro house track music video isn’t PLUR or random compilation of shows. The music video is dark, creepy and, if you’re easily scared, it’s a wee bit terrifying and gruesome, but its well put together. Although there’s a small production error, 1:48-1:49, it does not draw away from the shear energy of the gritty synths of the electro house track.

Audrio’s single will be released on September 3rd, 2013 on Avicii’s label, LE7ELS.
