Orlando-based producer Luminary Youth just released a 8 track LP titled “Unwritten Future.” Although I highly recommend you listen to the entire album, one track in particular you have to hear is his song “Never Alone.” Taking the vocals of what appears to be Ellie Goulding’s “Lights,” the artist constructs a mesmerizing original marked by atmospheric [...]

Summer’s approaching and if you don’t feel it just yet, blast any of of Baby Monster‘s songs and that should do the job. Although they’re mostly known for their remixes of Gorillaz, Ellie Goulding and Foster the People, Daniel Sternbaum and Marty Larson Xu now have new original material to follow up their self-titled 2011 [...]

Gotye and Kimbra rack up a fifth straight week atop the Billboard Hot 100 with "Somebody That I Used To Know", which puts the song just behind "We Are Young" by fun. and Janelle Monae as far as the most weeks spent at #1 this year (six). And unfortunately for both of these tunes, they've now reached the point where I want to take a baseball bat and smash the radio every time each of them come on (which, really, is like every two minutes). Meanwhile, Kelly Clarkson 's "Stronger" — another one I never want to hear again in ...

The fantastically affecting indie-pop of Mr Little Jeans is the kind that begs to be reinterpreted well. With an ear for big choruses and a genuinely beautiful voice, Monica Birkenes makes music that it’s easy to envision being remixed, calling to mind Ellie Goulding – less in the sense that they sound the same, but [...]

[mp3] Baby Monster: "City of Lovers" Known by many for their remixes of Gorillaz, Ellie Goulding and Foster The People - we caught wind of Baby Monster today while cruising through the Interview Mag twitter feed - dug the gauzy 80s track - and bc they have good PR - the press release showed up in my box an hour later. So from all of them, to all of you - here's "City of Lovers." The EP of the same name drops on June 5.

Marina & The Diamonds procede infatti in una direzione non troppo distante dalla nostra Germanotta preferita. Nonché unica, a meno che non conosciate altre Germanotte ...

Ben (left) & James (right) If you're at all interested or familiar with the continually popular domestic dance scene today, you know who The Knocks are.  The increasingly hyped NYC-based duo of Ben Ruttner & James Patterson have been making their heavy rounds as of late, touching down on both sides of the Atlantic and hitting the festival and club scene, all while managing to churn out quality material for us to eat up. We sat down with the fellas at the Sweetlife Festival a couple weeks back in Columbia, MD for a quick convo.  Follow up with the two's reflections on life as of late, upcoming work, and how they first came up not too long back. _____________________________________________________________________________ You guys have been super busy as of late, tell us about the last couple months. Ben - We’ve been travelling a lot - we were in California for a couple weeks recording in studios and such, and other than that we’ve been hitting spot dates. We did our own little tour from NY down to TX for SXSW - the Neon Gold tour which was us, St Lucia , Savoir Adore , all really fun. From SX we went straight to Ultra, played the main stage there which was pretty sick, and then we were in Miami for all of the Winter Music Conference as well and just hung out. James - And before that we were in London, like right before we did the Neon Gold tour, with DJ Shadow which was fun. Ben  - Yep, after all that, the travelling is chilling out for a little bit - basically after Sweelife we’re going from doing a festival or show every weekend from back at home in the studio consistently. What do you guys like most about the festival scene? James -  I like the fact that the crowd is pretty built-in, so you know you’re going to be reaching new people. And if they like it, the festival response, is way more epic than a regular show. People come to a festival and they’re just amped for whatever they’re gonna hear. Ben  - Yeah the energy is way higher, it’s much happier vibes compared to a NY show or something where everyone is so serious, in scenes like this everyone's just here to have fun. And our music is so much fun, so, it’s hard not to have a blast to it. James - Sometimes shows can be more of a showcase for an artist, A&Rs; can be there or industry people. Not that industry people don’t go to festivals, they definitely do, but I feel like the ratio is more in favor of the music lover than it would be otherwise at a scene like this. You guys mentioned going home soon - being NY - how’d you two come up initially and first link up together... READ MORE Ben  - I grew up in the boonies up in Vermont, James grew up in Connecticut, and we both did music apart originally. I used to make weird trip-hoppy instrumental stuff and he played through ...

Apparently this track is a few months old but I just came across it the other day. Since then, I cant stop playing the damn thing! The beats, lyrics, flashing lights...its all hypnotizing. Sometimes I just sit and stare at the video drooling. Well, no not really but the track does get you hooked. I actually did a search and there's a million remixes to this joint, but this is the best by far. Check it out.

IAMEVE is the concept creation of singer-songwriter Tiff Randol. Her album The Everything Nothing captures Randol's journey from self-destruction to self-love, all playing out to gigantic, electro popping nuggets that is reminiscent of artists like Ellie Goulding and La Roux. Check out her track and accompanying video for "Throw Me a Line".

Voodoo's full sound bass may blow Hayley's vocals UP, but Ms. Gene is the clear highlight in Voodoo Farm's 'DRVGS' remix. She's a got an Ellie Goulding charm to her that floats above well with this bass-wizard. If these two don't pair up for at least one official single, it'll be at a loss to our ears and these two extremely talented individuals. View Full Article » [Audio clip: view full post to listen]

While Gotye "Somebody That I Used to Know" again perches atop the Hot 100, others are bubbling under: Usher, for example, charted  -- not one - but two new singles from his seventh studio album; Ellie Goulding's "Lights" is at a slow boil and finally making it into the top 40 after 19 weeks; while Rihanna's "Where Have You Been" returns to the chart  as a promoted single.

Fourteen months after her album Lights was released in the US, and over two years after it first dropped in her home country, UK electro-pop broad Ellie Goulding finally lands her first Top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, with title song "Lights." The song slides up nine positions this week to #40 . A quick survey of the rest of the Brits in the upper reaches of the chart finds The Wanted back up one to #4 with "Glad You Came" , and their boy band rivals One Direction down to #9 with "What Makes You Beautiful." Guess calling Christina ...
