Things have been pretty slack here at the Ambassador Beats headquarters but we ALWAYS have our readers in mind.

To make up for a slow year end we put together a dozen FREE tunes that should not be missed from 2012…

Orbital – Halcyon (Dezza Bootleg Remix 2012)

17 Dec

Dezza is easily one of my favourite producers out there and sits right up there with our hometown boy Adam K for most talented Canadian djs.

His progressive sounds are consistently silky smooth and his ability to mould melody with his signature crunchy bass is nothing short of pure bliss.

His latest remix shows us exactly what this East Coaster is all about and thanks to the world ending in 4 days… he released it for FREE.

Hazem Beltagui- Ghosts (Original Mix)

13 Dec

Time and time again Hazem Beltagui drops these beautifully crafted progressive gems that make our ears all warm and fuzzy inside.

‘Ghosts’ is the latest FREE release from the Egyptian producer and follows up an onslaught of IDs, teasers and his latest mashup of Tiesto vs. Zedd

Download it all for free and many more on his Soundcloud

Chardy & Andy Murphy ft. Sean Declase- One Life (Denzal Park Remix)

19 Nov

There is a petition circulating in the hope of developing two new genres on beatport.com. ‘Big Room’ and ‘Commercial Dance’ are the proposed sub-genres that will hopefully clear some of the misty cross-over progressive house music that saturates the market. 

‘One Life’ would probably fall into both of these new categories. An all encompassing mix of feel good vocals, hands in the air synths and a summery melody make this one a BIG tune!

While you listen fill out this quick petition to support the evolving industry and genre categorization process that makes our lives easier.

Zedd feat. Matthew Koma- Spectrum (Hazem Beltagui Bootleg Mix)

16 Oct

We had our greasy hands all over this bootleg a few months back but it wasn’t until yesterday that the very generous Hazem Beltagui unleashed his version of Zedd’s radio killer- ‘Spectrum’ for FREE Download.

His mix brings a very mellowed out progressive vibe to a familiar track that needed a new twist.

If you’re a fan of melodic progressive house/trance you need to check out more from Hazem Beltagui

Zedd ft. Foxes- Clarity (Original Mix)

2 Oct

Zedd stepped up to the plate and banged out a HOME RUN with his new album ‘Clarity’.

You can tell his heart and soul went into this masterpiece as every track has an intricate, planned and methodical feel to it. From the ever-hyped ‘Shave It Up’ to our favourite tune- ‘Clarity’ the mood of the album flows from radio friendly progressive house to stabbing electro in a seamless manner.

Check out the standout ‘Clarity’ below and grab yourself a copy of the album HERE

Mindset- Ghost (Original Deep Water Mix)

21 Sep

Kickin’ back on a friday afternoon and it’s time for a beverage and a chilled out track to cap off a long week.

If you’re in a similar position then you can thank Macarize for delivery this soothing ‘deep water mix’ from Mindset.

oh and FREE D/L as well… can’t beat that

Adrian Lux ft. Dante- Burning (Original Mix)

10 Jul

Adrian Lux released his self titled LP on April 3rd through Ultra Records and we got so caught up in ‘Fire’ that we completely missed the most stunning cut off the album.

‘Burning’ is nothing short of a masterpiece. The summery beats warm the soul and when the vocals kicks in it’s tough to hold back that “this is a BIG TUNE!!!!’ smile.

Animal Kingdom- Strange Attractor (Dzeko & Torres Remix)

10 Jul

Fresh off their Chuckie approved ‘Who Is Ready To Jump’ remix the Toronto boys have another FREE banger for us.

In keeping with their flawless take on Indie band Of Monsters & Men Dzeko & Torres transform yet another relatively chilled out track into a floor filling dance tune.

Grab this one for FREE and check out plenty more great music on their Soundcloud

Coldplay Vs Tristan Gartner – Paradise Punx (Joey Beatz Bootleg)

5 Jul

Not going to lie, when I saw this, I thought Blue Jays Right Fielder Jose Bautista was making beats. But my mistake, this came from @DJJoeybeatz not @Joeybats19.

Regardless, Joey Beats just dropped a brand new bootleg which features Tristan Gartner and Coldplay. I wasn’t sure how Coldplay would work with a Progressive House beat, but it actually turned out great.

Check out the brand new track below, and watch baseball.

Disfunktion – Goodbye Miami

30 Jun

It is not easy to get me to listen to a progressive house tune. There really has to be something there that impresses me, and Disfunktion has hit the nail on the head with this one.

As unfortunate as it is, I know absolutely nothing about this genre and cannot break this song down other than the synth line is something that would have be going CRAZY at the club, if I knew the location of any club within 500 miles.

Check out the Goodbye Miami preview from the upcoming Appetite for Disfunktion album from Disfunktion. The 15 track album is set to be released on PinkStar records in the very near future so keep your eyes out for that. Until then throw this on your holiday weekend playlist.

Alesso & Dirty South – City Of Dreams (Jakob Liedholm Do Like You Edit)

22 Jun

To add to the list of teenagers who are absolutely killing it right now (think Porter Robinson, age 19, and Madeon, age 18) Jakob Liedholm (aka Jakob Lido) is a Swede producer who is only 15 (wtf!) and is starting to build an impressive setlist.  The original City of Dreams is going to be a massive track once an official version is released but for now Jakob has added an even bigger drop and mixed it with the lyrics from Eva Simmons – I Don’t Like you.  This is a great way to start off the weekend, Enjoy.

Stereo Palma feat. Craig David- Our Love (Myon & Shane 54 Summer Of Love Mix)

16 Jun

We can always count on Myon & Shane 54 for bringing us out of a depressing music drought.

The pair from Hungary are known for their melodic uplifting trance productions but lately their offerings have been airing on the proggy house side. ‘Our Love’ brings an infectious summery baseline with the soothing vocals from R&B legend Craig David.

Grab the whole remix pack HERE featuring cuts from Mikael Weermets and B-Sensual and enjoy the Summer of LOVE

Adventure Club- Wait (Original Mix)

29 May

It’s a known fact that every track Adventure Club puts out is/will be exceptional.

These guys have one of the cleanest track records of any up & comers out there and absolutely nothing is about to change. Their latest offering (FREE D/L of course) dropped today and it carries on the same glitchy/melodic/euphoric dubstep feel that we have come to know.

And on a completely unrelated but related note: female dj/producer Dinka released a remix of James Vincent McMorrow- We Don’t Eat today that reminded me how good Adventure Club’s remix from a year ago is.

Grab all of these for FREE and bask in some flawless tunes

Ferry Corsten ft. Aruna- Live Forever (Michael Woods Remix)

15 May

Ferry Corsten’s WKND brought us the standout track ‘Live Forever’ among a plethora of big room trance/house bangers.

Today the official video was release (watch here) alongside a stellar remix pack featuring Michael Woods & Shogun. The video is your typical dj/crowd footage mixed in with babes and vocalist-Aruna. But the remixes, released on Ultra Records take ‘Live Forever’ on a completely new journey.

Our favourite from Woods amps things up with his signature progressive touch, stabbing synths and dirty drops while keeping the integrity intact and the beautiful vocals enhanced.
