Fade (feat. Maiday) - Jakwob

I know I've been quite delinquent with posts as of late, but this one is a must-hear. Jakwob, British producer and DJ, is typically known for his fusion of multiple electronic elements in his music—primarily dubstep, breakbeat, worldbeat, electro, and more. However, his newest work, Fade (feat. Maiday) is something else. It fuzes the beautiful voice of British vocalist Maiday with classical piano and a slowed-tempo drum-and-bass style beat. Having reached the #1 spot on UK dance charts and #35 overall, Fade has plucked the heartstrings of many millions and is here to stay. Enjoy, check out Jakwob's SoundCloud, and see whether he's coming to your city any time soon!




BONUS: Here is a great remix of Fade by British drum and bass producer Etherwood.

Stay - Rihanna (Branchez Bootleg)

New York-based producer Branchez has attracted a lot of attention, including that of Carson Daly on LA's 97.1 radio station, throughout this last week for his remix of Rihanna's Stay. The remix features some subtle trap influences, but most notable are the glitchy sampling and pitch increase of Rihanna's lyrics. For your listening pleasure, Branchez made the free download available on his Facebook (linked below). Anyway, kick back, relax, and enjoy Branchez' newest!
