Bro does cover of 'Get Low' by Lil Jon

This is one of the single greatest covers I have ever seen.  Weather it be because of the actual song or just the venue where it went down, this video is hilarious.  Lil Jon where you least expect him.  As ridiculous as it is, you kind of have to appreciate the musicality of it.  If you don't listen to what he's saying, the singer is actually really talented.  Then again when you do listen its just that much better.

Shout out to Vern

Sleigh Bells - Demons (Diplo remix)

This song is a good representation of Trap music's darker roots.  It bumps none the less, as I expected it would once I saw the "Diplo remix" in parenthesis after the song title.  Everything Diplo touches turns to gold these days.  Enjoy.

This is unbelievable...

I saw a video of some guy a few years ago dancing to Louder by Flux Pavilion, and ever since then, more and more videos of the same guy have surfaced, getting more and more ridiculous each time.  He really has invented his own style of dance and it seems like hes developed a following.  Check out this latest video from him (guy in the blue sweatshirt) and his new crew.  This blew my mind.


The song is called Illusion of Choice by Gramatik... in case you were wondering.

Calvin Harris - Sweet Nothing (Diplo and Grandtheft remix)

Diplo took Calvin Harris's anthem and Trapified it.  Trap for days.  I had a great time bumping this in my car while driving home for Thankgiving.  Let us give thanks to Diplo and Mr. Harris for supplying us with arguably the biggest Trap anthem of the year so far.  Amen.  Best turkey day ever.

Tori Kelly - PYT by Michael Jackson (Acoustic Cover)

Damn.  This girl has got some serious talent.  Clearly I'm not the first to hear about her, but as far as stardom goes,  500,000 views on Youtube doesn't cut it.  This girl's vocal control puts Mariah Carey to shame, so I expect that count to be far into the millions sooner or later.  Hop on the train before it's rolling, and you'll be able to say you knew Tori Kelly back when she was just some hopeful on Youtube.

Uh Uh (CRNKN remix) - ALESIA

I have never heard of ALESIA, but CRNKN is an emerging name in the Trap game, and if he deems them worthy of a remix, maybe they are worth checking out.  I'll be doing some future research.  This song is unlike I have ever heard.  It is signature Trap style, but it takes a melodic piano line and then warps it with some dark bass.  It almost sounds like something Tyler The Creator or someone from Odd Future would rap over.  (Hint hint nudge nudge Tyler.  Write some bars over this.  It would be sick.)

Cazzette - Beam Me Up

This is one of the coolest music videos I've seen in a while with an even better song to accompany it.  Look forward to the release of Cazzette's upcoming debut album, EJECT PT.1, and from what I've seen here, I think we can expect good things.  Extremely catchy song here from Cazzette.  I see this one being a big hit in the near future.

Ellie Goulding - Bittersweet (prod. by Skrillex)

There had been rumors floating around for a while now about a compilation between, now ex-couple, Sonny Moore (Skrillex) and Ellie Goulding.  I am happy now to share that that rumor became reality as of this morning, and the product is definitely up to the standard that I was expecting.  Dubstep connoisseur Skrillex packs his high energy sound into this track while effortlessly weaving the signature, emotional rifts from Ms. Goulding throughout.  The contrast is amazing and its really a shame that the couple isn't staying together because I would love to hear more sounds like this.  I also really like the direction that Skrillex is moving in with his music.  It's much more melodic and less crazy than his original stuff, and I think that he will soon start to appeal to a much wider audience.  Sorry to all you hard-hitting, dub fans.

The Cataracs - Alcohol

The Cataracs are back with what may be the next big hit around college campuses everywhere.  I mean these guys have it figured out with this song.  First of all, the song is just straight up called Alcohol.
Alcohol = Crazy Party.  Crazy Party = Rager.  Rager = Fun.  Fun = Awesome.  Song = Alcohol.  Alcohol = Awesome.  Genius...

KOAN SOUND - Vengeance Rhythm

OK so i lied.  This song is actually by some guy names Two Fingers, BUT it was remixed by KOAN SOUND (aka my favorite producer).  I don't give two shits about Two Fingers.  Never heard of him.
