Eddie K & Millions Like Us - Black Widow (Ft. Hollie G)

Seldom do I find a song that embodies everything I like about the recent boom in electronic music without being off-putting in one way or another. I came across this song while watching one of the videos made by Nonstop, a very unique dancer of recent Youtube fame known for his fluid, robotic dance routines usually set to dubstep. Black Widow is one of those songs that you can't help but listen to repeatedly. It's the sort of song that you wake up with in your head and you end up singing it on the drive to work. I'm rather surprised at the lack of popularity of this song; considering the number of genres it seems to cover, it's an excellent candidate for remixes.

I guess you could argue that it's so good on it's own that maybe it would be wrong to change any one part of it. Check it out for yourself:

I Believe in a Thing Called Da Funk

So I felt like putting two songs up today because I ended up posting them late. This song is a mashup by DJ Schmolli called I Believe in a Thing Called Da Funk. Cool name right? Well this is another awesome mashup. This is one of the few mashups that doesnt use excessive rap (Thats good too but this is just wow) I dont have a lot to say about this song other than its awesome listen to it.

Crush on You

So todays song is Crush on You by Nero. What a lot of people dont know about Nero is that its actually a 3 person group not just a single person like many think. This song has some awesome vocals especially later in the song as well as some killer bass. If you happen to be lucky enough to have a subwoofer in your car like I do play this song as loud as you can (disclaimer: I am not responsible for hearing loss... dont be dumb) It hits hard and embodies everything Nero on their dubstep side.

Modestep

So todays song is Sunlight by Modestep which is crazy. These guys are actually a four piece group that just came out in 2011. They focus on dubstep/electronic music. For only being out for a year this is a surprisingly intricate music video. Anyway hope you guys enjoy. This song is awesome

Coyote Kisses

Alright so today I want to share with you guys one of my favorite up and comings. This is acid wolfpack by coyote kisses. These guys have one of the most unique sounds I have ever heard. They combine dubstep a thing called glitch-hop which sounds awesome. You're just going to have to listen for yourself and see but trust me your ears will bleed.

Liquid Dnb

Okay so I decided since I havent gotten to this genre yet I would post 2 drum and bass songs. These songs are actually considered liquid dnb which happens to be my favorite style of drum and bass. Its much slower than dnb which can only be danced to with fast dances like jumpstyle or shuffling (look them up they are amazing.) These songs are great, and with two songs you can listen to twice the amount of music. so get your moneys worth and start listening right now. But wait there's more, call now and you can... nevermind I think the ghost of Billy May's got me for a second. Anyway enjoy these songs.

Netsky- lost without you

Nero- Do you Wanna

Dubstep commercial

Wow this commercial is awesome. I feel like if everyone ate this cereal the world would be a much better place. Or maybe this cereal just has crack in it idk anyway only Kanye West has words for this commercial.

Unison (knife Party remix)

Ok so todays song is a remix of Porter Robinson's song Unison by Knife Party. This is another dubstep song (I'll probably end up putting a lot of dubstep on here since it seems to be taking over). In my mind this song is even better than the original just because it has so much bass in parts. If you have a subwoofer or over the ear headphones you'll want to play it over those because tiny little in ear's just dont do it justice. This song was also used in the commercial for red tails which, while I have no idea how good the movie is, is the first time I have ever seen a dubstep song used in a commercial.... besides Nero because those guys are amazing. But that shows just how big dubstep is getting and how good this song is... enjoy.

Intro to Mashups

Ok, so since today is the first day of this blog being online I thought I'd try and put up a couple of posts just to get this thing off the ground. The second song I'm posting is Calvin Harris & Kelis vs Lucky Date - Ho's and Disco's Bounce! (John DePinto Re-Mash Up) long name right? Well this is a mashup. Many people arent as big a fan of these as originals but I find them really good. It allows for some new sounds that no one really thought of when the song was created. This is a cool beat that I believe if you wanted to place a genre on it other than mashup (yes that is a genre) it would be electro house. Enjoy the song.

turntable.fm

In case anyone reading this is unaware of my favorite music site I would like to introduce you to turntable.fm. This is possibly the greatest music site to date where you interact with other people and you can play songs you want in rooms corresponding to the genre you like. I primarily hang out in The Party Bus by Fratmusic.com which plays a little bit of... you guessed it party music (electric, dubstep, mashup) but if you like classical or even ska they have rooms for that. If you want to dj with a friend get them to join and make a private room and dj with only your friends. There are still some glitches when you try to upload but they are a lot better than when I first started when the site was a month or 2 old.

My DJ name on the site is Boxed Wine so if you see and like my music be sure to fan me. Hopefully all of you will join the site and love it.

First Post

So Ive decided Im going to make a music blog, hopefully adding one song a day from any genre I choose. This will probably only be electronic genres but lets not get ahead of ourselves. Hopefully anyone who decides chooses to read my blog will find new music that they will like and maybe it'll even introduce you to some new music. 

For the first song I thought I'd put up one that I found on turntable.fm. This song is Brightside (Jaybird Dubstep remix) originally by the Knocks. I like this song because it is dubstep but it seems almost a laid back style of dubstep compared to skrillex or porter robinson (they are also good though) Hope you all enjoy this song....
