If you were alive in 2009, it was damn near impossible to walk into a club and not hear Sonic C.’s “Stickin’”. This track has a Dutch House style build and drop immediately recognizable to anyone who heard at least some of it before. Of course, I do not mean the Sonic...
Juke Ellington

Break out the track suit, high tops, fresh fade and bust that Juke. I’m talking about the dance genre known for intricate drum patterns, chopped up samples and fancy footwork. One of my favorite producers in the genre, Juke Ellington, has been killing it the past few weeks with tons of...
Daft Punk’s New Album Featuring Nile Rodgers
posted by Kat Bein
Holy shit. Holy shit. HOLY FUCKING SHIT. This is the moment we’ve all been waiting for. Some kind of real confirmation that our favorite French robots, the best of the best in dance floor designer beats, the masters of all you know are back in the studio. I point you to this article from Houston’s Culture Map, in which Nile Rodgers, the man behind the funky sounds of 1970s disco/funk/soul outfit Chic, talks about beating cancer and getting ready for the ultimate come-back: teaming up with Daft Punk to work on their epicly long-awaited fourth album (because I guess Tron doesn’t count, even though I love that soundtrack,...

Perfectos – The End Of The World (Again)
posted by Alexander Klausner
If you want to be overly simplistic about things, there are two ideologies in today’s world of independent rock music: There is the camp that thinks the best way to catch ears is by creating a unique sound as an artist using every experimental trick in the book. Then there’s the camp that thinks all you need is a good, catchy song. That’s where Brenton Stanley, vocalist and guitarist of The Perfectos, falls. Sure, he’s got organs and pianos backing his traditional rock three-piece foundation, but that’s where the bells and whistles end. The Perfectos’ new seven-song EP, “The End Of The World...

Get ready, Gainesville. Something awesome this way comes. No, I’m not talking about the Drake show. I’m talking about Tycho. He’s playing Double Down Live Tuesday, bringing his brand of chillwave to the stage. The best way to describe his music is electronic post-rock....
Nadisko: The Hardest Type Of Disco
posted by GPS
Update! We got an exclusive free download from Nadisko themselves! Nadisko – Jurrassic (Original Mix) (right click and “Save As” to download!) Hailing from Sydney, Australia, Nadisko brings some serious heat to the table. With an interesting variety of sounds in their arsenal, Nadisko (consisting of members Alex and Blake) separate themselves from the usual by making “their” sound, well, various sounds. They seem to be known for their electro tracks, though they have made originals and remixes that show they aren’t afraid to experiment with new genres.

So, imagine a car. It’s a car from the 1980s. Then imagine taking that car and putting in a hot rod engine from the 1960s. And then before taking that baby out on the road, you put a in new sound system and remodel the car’s interior to be modern and super fresh. “Welcome To...

Our very own GPS is back with another hour-long edition of banging grooves and groovin’ bangers. Big ups to 12 Inch Plastic Toys for making the sweet album art. And yes, this is the same mean-muggin-I-don’t-give-no-effs-play-in-my-best-Hawaiian-shirt DJ that rocked the dance floor...

In the pursuit of great summer music, I’ve been slowly falling in love this past week with Mike Tucker, a.k.a. Blood Diamonds, thanks to the recent release of his newest track, Grins. The Vancouver producer makes beautiful jams that grow and swirl into a big eclectic mash of samples...

Sammy Bananas

I first had the pleasure of seeing Sammy Bananas perform during Miami Music Week this year in the Fool’s Gold Showcase at Grand Central in Downtown Miami. I had left Ultra early to go to it, and saying I was glad I did would be a massive understatement. By the end of his set, he went...
