Ambassador Beats

Two of Toronto’s finest Ambassador’s dropped a delectable and FREE bootleg on us today via Soundcloud

They took the standout track from indie band- Of Monsters And Men and turned it into a soothing progressive house mix filled with beautiful breakdowns, club friendly drops and the integrity of the original.

Check these guys out on Soundcloud for lots more good stuff.

Zeds Dead have been destroying venues across North America with their Living Dead Tour alongside Omar Linx.

The dubstep duo from Toronto have had a remarkable start to 2012 and with the new mixtape ‘Victor’ dropping soon, things are only looking up. 

Their latest Living Dead promo gives us a preview at ‘No Prayers’, a collab with Omar Linx which reminds us of the mega underground hit ‘Rude’.

It’s been too long since we’ve been able to post some NEW new from Kid Cudi.

He’s back with ‘Dose of Dopeness’ which is exactly what the title says it is. The collaboration with Dot Da Genius actually dates back to 2008 and was just released as a precursor to the duo’s Feb 28th release of WZARD.

If the album is anything like this we are in for a big treat.

Hazem Beltagui has been on our radar for some time now and after our Rising Star feature a few months back, the Egyptian born DJ has only reaffirmed his status as a producer on the brink.

His two latest originals- ‘And Time Stood Still’ & ‘Sun Goes Down’ embody the progressive touch that he consistently delivers with the trancey breakdowns that we all crave.

Download both of these for FREE and hit Hazem up on Facebook & Soundcloud

Saturday night festivities need Saturday night tunes.

Like it or not LMFAO have been at the forefront of providing us with the crowd pleasing, dance floor filling, sing a long hits that have been fuelling our weekends since Party Rock was released back in ’08.

They once again team up with Lil Jon for a follow up to Shots that is equally as simplistic and effective.

Tim Mason has been flying under the radar for some time now and with remixes like the one below, that is all going to change in 2012.

His ‘Stars Come Out’ remix is a beautiful proggy house number that accentuates the vocals like no other remix has been able to do. Of all the tracks in the remix pack, this one stands out and is in my professional opinion, better than the original.

You can buy this track as well as the star studded remix pack on Beatport

I really thought we were done with the ‘Hello’ remixes but I believe we have a late bloomer here.

Speaker Of The House- a Philly native, has constructed a pleasant dubstep remix which gives the vocals a chop and the bassline some much needed wobble.

Check it out as well as some new stuff on his Soundcloud

Dragonette & Martin Solveig- Hello (Speaker of the House Remix)

Following the career of The Dirty Tees has been one of the cooler backseat experiences I’ve had since starting this blog.

The guys have always been super talented and as their releases increased people started to take notice. Originally hailing from Oakville, Ontario the duo produced a remix of Natasha Bedingfield’s ‘Touch’ among other things in their first year. The track led to huge internet buzz and the songstress reached out to the guys. Suddenly they found themselves flying out to LA to work on some tracks with her and pursue a full time career in music. 

Flash forward a year and they are on the verge of taking things to the next level. A win in the Beyoncé remix competition would really help and with your vote we can make this happen.

Listen to their remix below and if you’re feeling it, go Vote and watch as one of Canada’s most exciting acts blows up.

Beyoncé – End Of Time (The Dirty Tees Remix)

An icon has passed away and mashup artists from around the world have come together to pay tribute.

Whitney Houston has so many hits that her legacy will live on forever. With the growing popularity of remixing and mashing I have no doubt that we will continue to hear plenty more of these…

The Hood Internet – When The Night Knows (Whitney Houston x Chromeo)

Swanky Tunes Hard Rock Sofa feat Whitney Houston – Is not Smolengrad ( Jerem A bootleg )

Now this is a fresh remix. Phoenix based Djs Swookie Monster and Speedy Graffiti have teamed up for another remarkable remix under their TABS moniker.

They have taken the legendary collaboration ‘Move For Me’ from Kaskade & Deadmau5 and given it a face lift. A different pitch, an array of original instrumentals and a completely different vibe make this a big winner.

Hit these guys up on Facebook for a FREE download and show some love on Hype Machine.

This track is the definition of overplayed so it’s only right that Clark Kent swooped in to revive the standout hit from ‘Watch The Throne’.

Hov and ‘Ye are no strangers to dubstep and after the Flux Pavilion sample on ‘Who Gon Stop Me’ it was only a matter of time before we heard their smooth flow mixed with some wobble.

Clark Kent does a great job of keeping the integrity of the original while adding in his own magic touch and it all adds up to a winning combination.

I can’t help but sit back in awe at the year that young Sonny Moore has had.

On top of the grammy nods, countless releases and collaborations he has toured the world playing festivals and shows almost non-stop. He has gone from riding the coattails of label head Deadmau5 to sitting at the top of not only the electronic music hierarchy, but the entire MUSIC INDUSTRY.

Love him or hate him he has become an icon and a brand all at the same time and there is no sight of this changing anytime soon. Check out the 10 minute short film which captures a glimpse into the exciting life of one of the world’s most popular artists.

Feed Me is back with another wild aural adventure full of dubstep, electro, dnb, house and his signature next level touch.

Just a week after label mate Moguai dropped Mpire, Feed Me stepped up to release another highly touted EP on Mau5trap. The 6 track EP is a full on journey and the diversity is easy to see with tracks like Relocation vs. One Click Head Shot. Both are easily my favourite tracks but so completely different and unique.

This is an album that I would classify as ‘forward thinking’ and is definitely worth the ‘Go Buy’ status.

Is it just me or has there been a house music drought?

I’ve been waiting patiently for something special to drop and not to my surprise, Tom Fall is the one to end the winter blues.

He teamed up with fellow Fin Heikki L and singer Ben Andreas to create this epic masterpiece. A true progressive house cut with all the fixings and the support from Armada to propel it onto the next level.

You should probably go BUY this and support some of the finest new music on the planet.

Since Codhoppers took some time off to make babies, Ambassador Beats has kind of turned into my personal playlist gone public.

We’ll probably lose lots of readers due to the lack of hip hop/indie/rock etc. that doesn’t fall under the ELECTRONIC MUSIC umbrella but that’s ok cause it’s still fun as ever to post music that I love.

With that being said, Adventure Club are killing it right now. Everything they release is AMAZING and FREE. Two of my favourite things. Grab the latest dubstep assault and check these guys out on Soundcloud

Foxes – Youth (Adventure Club Dubstep Remix)

Minnesota is known for transforming classics (B.I.G- Juicy, Mama’s & The Papa’s- California Dreaming to name a few) into bass heavy crowd pleasers.

His latest work, a remix to Fenech Soler’s ‘Demons’ is a treat for the eardrums. Throw the headphones on and escape to some soothing dubstep and check out more from Minnesota on his Soundcloud & Facebook

Moguai dropped his two year in the making masterpiece on Mau5trap yesterday and it lives up to the expectations.

His first album- We Are Lyve destroyed the charts in 2010 and won over the hearts of EDM aficionado’s with tracks like ‘Blau’ and ‘Oyster’. ‘Blau’ in particular really stood out and was quickly added to my ‘songs that make me feel warm and fuzzy inside’ list.

Mpire is a 14 track EP filled with progressive melodies, bouncy baselines and a feel good vibe. The opening track- ‘Smyle’ makes you wanna do just that and is a testament to the rest of the album.

Do yourself a favour and buy Moguai-Mpire. It’s value and impact are comparable to that of regular sessions with a therapist, minus the cost.
