I've been contemplating making these posts larger with more music due to the large backup I have on my end. So for at least this week expect more music. Today is definitely a weird one, the tracks are so varied and all of them cater to a certain musical audience. Lets get talking:

We start today with a track from Canadian duo Adventure Club. Gold features the impressive vocals of Yuna and brings Adventure Club's unique euphoric style of electronic music. Its chorus melody and underlying beat are a major factor in why this song is so good.

The next track is relatively old, being released a few months ago, but it still deserves a place on the blog. Diplo & DJ Fresh, along with Dominique Young Unique, create an impressive orginal mix but with the heavy beats of Delta Heavy added it just gets so much better.

Onto Disclosure and London Grammar's new hit Help Me Lose My Mind. With their classic airy melodies and bouncing beat Disclosure excellently blend in Hannah Reid's amazing voice and create a great tune. Although it wouldn't satisfy any hardcore bass lover this track definitely hits the sweet spot.

Vicetones remix of Popeska's The New Kings definitely delivers the goods. With a banging beat and superb melodies Vicetone mixes on of my favorite new house remixes. Luciana's perfect vocals don't hurt either.

This next tune has been sitting on my backburner for a while now and since I can't wait any longer I'm posting it up before its release date in 6 days. Bringing together the smooth melodies and beats of a disco-esque tune Jimmy Edgar totally makes Skream's original track better. One of the odder tracks on today's list for sure.

Kat Krazy again hits the blog with another remix but this time from English band Bastille's Pompeii. The track is deceiving starting out with the original vocals and then moving straight into a dubstep like drop. I'm a fan of this track because it has excellent vocals and its hard not to love that drop and bass.

 And with that Dancy tune we transition straight into trap electronic. RL Grime (more widely known as Clockwork for his house music) along with Salva put together a trap remix of Kanye West's Mercy. Bringing with them the classic trap sounds and a sick baseline. The track also benefits from keeping Kanye's original lyrics and some of the more notable sounds.

There we go, a veritable grab bag of musical genres. Today should satisfy your fix of house, electro, dance, disco, remixes and trap. Enjoy and I'll see you tomorrow with a throwback tunes post.

N0ZTRA out, listen well.
