Monday Music New.

Just came back from an awesome small little vacation in my old neck of the woods. Saw awesome people, and had a hell of a time. Sadly haven't really played a DJ set in awhile but still doesnt stop me from looking, plus I found some music different from the electronic stuff so hear ya go...

This song is tough to post, copyright laws are really kicking in on this one for some reason. But its Katy Perry's song Wide Awake. Its awesome.


This song turns out to be one of the best EDM tracks I have ever heard, cant wait to play this one!

Avicii, David Guetta & Special Features vs. Kings Of Leon - Sunshine Sex On Fire (BINGO Bootleg) by THEBINGOBALLS

Dragonette is an artist who i feel should be way more "mainstream" than she is. She of course sang the vocals for Hello, but damn she is awesome.
 

Sooo here is my sappy music is neat and awesome rant. I found myself running around on YouTube last night and I all of the sudden found myself in the amazing "underground" part of YouTube. The music that needs to be heard because it has soul, and lyrics. I came across the band The Paper Kites. Let me first say, that I love electronic music and how creative and "Rage" like it can be. But sometimes we all need music that is naked. You pick up your instrument, you pick up a kick pedal drum, and you pick up your guitar, and I'm just gonna sing and we will see where it takes us. The song is called Bloom by The Paper Kites. I listened to this song at least 15 times last night, and its so unbelievably moving. One of the comments on the video says, "this video reminds me of someone I have yet to meet." It makes you sit down and relax and realize you have a long way to go, and that no matter what your going through, you're going to make it through. True music...

Gotye.

Special post even though it is not Monday, I just couldnt wait to share this guy (not the name of a band ps)! So of course, Gotye has Somebody That I Used to Know. Its obviously amazing, so I got to thinking it would be a huge mistake if I didnt take a second to explore this guy more thoroughly. First impression was a little left to be desired. I let my mood go, slept on it, came back with a different attitude, and holy cow this band is fucking awesome. What makes them awesome?! OLD BAND INFLUENCES! It is clear that this guy is majorly influenced by old music and that is what lacks from majority of popular music, ROOTS! SOUL! FEELING! Some of these songs you could send straight to the 70's and 80's. Now our genration says ew gross the 70's and 80's, but I'm telling you some of the most amazing music stemmed from that era. About half of the songs are pretty somber tales, I'm not quite sold or in the mood for those yet, but go ahead and check these out! It is a nice change of pace I'm telling you. Give it a chance for such an awesome singer (Wouter "Wally" De Backer) Learnalilgivinanlovin by Gotye Save Me by Gotye Eyes Wide Open by Gotye I Feel Better - Gotye  Gotye - In Your Light

New MM?!

One of the things that I have been doing is watching Deadmau5 produce his music live on Deadmau5 Live. It something that interests me and my passion because I am beginning to slightly understand what he is talking about while doing this. But I wanted to share what he has been working on, because its the vintage deadmau5 sound that I love....
Heres your pop remix... Katy Perry - Part of Me (Thin White Duke Mix)
