KillaGraham


Been gone for a while but now its time to get back into it. Got three remixes by Killagraham to spice up your Saturday night. Heard the Cudi Zone one a while ago and absolutely loved it. It's my favorite Kid Cudi song and he makes it better. He just came out with an I'm on one remix that is absolute fire. It's the first new thing in a while. Then there's a pretty chill remix of Say It Ain't So. Kind of a random song to remix but it works for sure.

Solid Ground

As promised here is a youtube rip I did of PNAU's "Solid Ground". I will post the HQ version when the song gets released later this summer.

Solid Ground (Too Much Worth Living For) (Tim Mason Remix) - PNAU

Le Weekend


Sorry for the lack of posting over the past few days. Saus is on vaca so it's just me for a few more days. Hopefully this track will make up for it because it is sure to be a summer hit.

Take You Higher (Club Mix) - Goodwill & Hook N Sling


As a bonus here is a preview for a MASSIVE track that should drop soon. I'll try and get a LQ rip and post it.

Final Countdown


Can't believe July's almost over. Damn that went fast. Well as we look towards the weeks ahead, here are a few tracks that you'll be bumpin for the rest of the summer.

Let me guess your first thought was, really? A dubstep remix for one of the chillest songs ever? If you thought that'd you would be wrong my friend. I too expected Feed Me to throw in some huge bass whomps. Instead we're left with something much better.

Melancholy Hill (Feed Me Remix) - Gorillaz


Definition of progressive house. That is all.

Ticket To The Sky (Original Mix) - Fadi


A pretty solid remix for a relative new comer to the scene. It certainly does not trump the original but it definitely gives it a harder, electro vibe which I'm really diggin.

Fade Into Darkness (Aylen Remix) - Avicii

Tuesday, July 26, 2011

Chillectro


I'm pretty sure I posted the preview for this track a few weeks ago and it's just now been released. This songs got a great chill-instrumental vibe perfect for a sunny, summer day. Stay thirsty my friends.

Waiting For You (Original Mix) - AxisONE

Kaskade

This song is gonna be HUGE. Drops August 9th.

Monday, July 25, 2011

Double Dose

Two tracks dropped today from some major names in the game. Great party tracks fo sho.

Alive - Dirty South & Thomas Gold ft. Kate Elsworth


I can't tell if this song is really annoying, or extremely awesome. I'll let you decide.

Soundtracks & Comebacks (Fedde Le Grand Remix) - Goldfish

Moonday

Just another manic Monday here at Straight Hits. Here's a fresh electro banger for your morning commute.

We Are Bound With Ice (LX-Tronix Remix) - GeRich & Cool Project feat Asie

Trance


Thought I'd mix things up today and post a little trance. I'm not as into it as I used to be, but I still recognize a banger when I hear one. If you're just now making your foray into trance, here are a few tracks to get you started.

Marcel Woods is one of the masters of trance and this new remix by Jonas Stenberg has a great feel to it.

Sunrise (Jonas Stenberg Remix) - Marcel Woods


This song is set to be released on the 29th of August, but they put a full preview on youtube so I just ripped it from there. It still has tags and isn't 320k, I'll make sure to get the full release when it drops in a month.

Kate - Arty


This song isn't trance but I found it saved in garageband when I went to convert "Kate" to an mp3. I don't know what the track name is or who produced it, but what I do know is that it's a sick jam. If anyone knows what this track is hit me up in the comment section.

The Waviest Heat

After three grueling days in 110-115 degree weather it looks like the heat wave is passing over. So if you're like me and just now leaving the house for the first time, here are some new jams to bump tonight.

Some new Zedd for you dubstep fans. SICK drop at 2:11.
Dovregubben - Zedd


Solid remix by Dj's From Mars, not as good as Be Cool, but still a solid remix for a future dance club banger.

Night Nurse (DJs From Mars Remix) - Cascada

Swedish House


Preview of a new track coming form 2/3 of SHM Alesso and Sebastian Ingrosso. Sounds pretty sick, I'll hit yall up on the drop.

Captain's Cut


Two more upbeat remixes to start the weekend. Both of these are by Captain's Cut. I had never heard the original songs but I really like both of these. Then I looked up the original and they make Elli Goulding's weird-ass videos like normal and mainstream. Regardless, these remixes should get some play this weekend.


Sublime


This came out a few weeks ago but I just reheard it and decided we'd expand our musical horizons a little here. Very chill song called Can You Feel It by Sublime and Wiz. Surprisingly good pairing, probably because of their shared love of wee.

Thursday, July 21, 2011

Porter Robinson


Some new Porter Robison for you to get the weekend started early. First there's his remix of Edge of Glory by Lady Gaga and it's fire. Her songs already have a big electro feel and this just makes it better. Go figure it takes a while to drop but it's sick when it finally does.Then we got a mashup with him and SHM by Dallask. I liked his Nero remix and this one is pretty solid as well.



Knock Knock


This may not be a new song but this fresh remix from Matt Sterling breathes new life into this party smasher. Schwing.

Dancing With The DJ (Matthew Sterling Remix) - The Knocks

Macklemore


Been waiting for this for like 5 months but it was worth it. Sick video to go with a great song. One day he's going to blow up because he's such a great story teller and you can see that with the video. Epic slow-mo basketball scenes in the rain. Don't really get the part where he's reading out of a comically large book but maybe I'm just not artistic enough.

Butch


New song from Butch Clancy. Just sick. Been listening to it for 3 straight days. Parts sound like the Black Smoke from Lost but in as good a way as that can possibly be.


Also have a new mixtape from Gerry Franco. It's a good mix with all the popular tracks from the past couple months. Hit him up on Soundcloud for sure

Leonardo Davicii

Couple of new Avicii tracks including the full version of "Fade Into Darkness". Enjoy.

Fade Into Darkness (Club Mix) - Avicii


Don't Give Up On Us - Avicii


Hard hitting electro-remix of Levels. Not many people have remixed avicii's stuff so it's nice to hear somebody trying.
Levels (Clockwork Remix) - Avicii

Tuesday, July 19, 2011

Calvin Harris


A sick Nero remix of a new Calvin Harris song. Not as upbeat as the original but what do you expect. And is it just me or do the vocals kind of sound like B.O.B.? Like not exactly but if someone said it was him I'd believe them.

Toasty Tuesday

I've been sitting on this song for awhile now...I guess now is as good a time as any to post it. It's not new and a few of you probably already have it, but I still think it's an awesome dubsteb remix.

We Own The Sky (Udachi Remix) - M83

Do the Housebeat


Not usually one to post house but I heard these two and was a big fan. Both are the standard house, take a while to get started but you're rewarded in the end.
First one's called Slapsgiving by Pavle C. Kept waiting for the accordions to come in at the beginning. It gets pretty spacey at the end which I like.
The other is New Life by Bream and Blinders. Never heard of either of these guys but it's a sick song.



Fair Trade

smokeshow

If you've been keeping up with the latest music gossip you'd know about the whole leona lewis - avicii scandal. If you didn't already know her producers technically didn't "steal" anything because avicii had sampled the piano melody from a song by the Penguin Cafe Orchestra (hence the song originally being called penguin). Either way I'm done with it, whatever. One good thing that has come out of all of this is a bangin' Afrojack remix of "Collide". Prego.

Collide (Afrojack Remix) - Leona Lewis

Space Ghost Coast to Coast


One of the greatest feelings for a blogger is finding an undiscovered talent hidden somewhere in the vast internets. James Egbert, while not totally unknown, has yet to garner a large electro following. With his newest single hopefully that will change. "Isle of Capri" is an awesome instrumental jam sure to spice up your Monday. Cheers.

Isle of Capri (Original Mix) - James Egbert

Madeon Live

I don't think there are many videos of him performing live but here's one that just dropped of him at the Social Club Paris. So sick to see the kid himself in action.

Ummm...

This is Leona Lewis's new single. Let me know if it sounds familiar.

Chill House

As awesome as House and Dubstep are, it's nice to get a break from the THUMP THUMP THUMP BWAH BWAH BWAHHHHH every once and a while. I found a preview of this awesome chill-house song dropping the 26th. Definition of what a laid back Sunday song should be. Enjoy.

Flu? Really?

I've been sick for the past few days hence the lack of posting. I've finally managed to move from the bed to my computer to see what's new. Of course while I am away Avicii's "Fade into Darkness" leaks, but whatever better late than never! So if don't have it already DL it.

Fade into Darkness (vocal radio edit) - Avicii

NEW BLINK

http://hulkshare.com/0vmhxh0nkmga

This is the link to their new song, Up All Night.
Shitty quality but it's the whole song at least

UPDATE: It's on Youtube with better quality so here it is:

It's Hoodie


Usually post electro and remixes but I'm a big Hoodie fan and heard this. Mixtape's going to be DOPE. Enjoy the teaser and his first single from it.

The Truth



This kid is unbelievable. I think after seeing this Madeon might be tied with Avicii for my favorite producer. I don't think anybody has EVER done a live mashup as sick as this. Yeah ok so super mash and white panda do "mashups" with two songs together, but this, this is unbelievable. Check out the vid while I try and find an mp3. This kid better go on tour soon in the US.

Summa


Love me some summa' house. Here are some jams soon to grace our presence. I'll hit you up on the drop.

DJ Fresh ft. Sian Evans - Louder (Hardwell Remix) by HARDWELL

Dim Chris Feat Amanda Wilson - You Found Me (Promise Land Miami 305 mix) by Promise Land

BOOTIK & SILVERTONGUE - When The Music Stops (Preview) by BOOTIK

The Wiz


Wiz remix for hump day. Doesn't really change a ton from the original, just turns up the bass and adds the standard synth sounds. Pretty Chill tho for a dude named Death Star.

Tuesday, July 12, 2011

The Soundmen


Two sick remixes by the Soundmen here. They got a really funky feel to them which I like. Not as much DP music as just chillin to. First there's the Bass Down Low Remix. He messes with the vocals a lot which I think in this case is a good thing. I've never heard of Geraldine which is the second 1 we got but regardless I like the remix of it.


Trip Hop

This song isn't trip-hop, I just like how it rhymes. Regardless this hip hop song is DOPE. Considering we don't normally post hip hop, when we do you know they're gonna be straight hits.

Why Even Try (RAC Remix) - Theophilus London

Hot Tubs Too Hot

It's 96 degrees in my hometown and I'm dieing. Lucky for you though in my semi conscious state I've found 3 SICK tunes. Check these house jamz out below. Stay thirsty my friends.

Pretty sure this is a rip from Pete Tong's BBC radio show but it's still HQ. Song is dope so download it right now even if it's not the full release.

Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall - Coldplay (SHM Remix)


It's no secret that I like French House, so of course when I find a sick jam I'm gonna post it.

Burnin - Gum Me


This last song has some strong summer vibes and is a great party song. Tristan Garner is pretty consistent so I'm not surprised at the tastiness of this track.

What's the Point (Tristan Garner Sunset Mix) - Avi Elman & Danny J Ft Nuwella

DutchStep


Happy Monday. Starting off the week with 2 sick (but pretty old) remixes of All of the Lights. First we have the "DutchStep" remix by Aylen. Straight dance track that'd be a great start to any DP. There's also the Rex Riot dubstep remix. Starts off a little funky but by the end it's a really solid remix.

Saturday, July 9, 2011

Coldplay - SHM


This is what happens when a couple of industry heavies get together to produce a MONSTER jam. I've been listening to Coldyplays "Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall" for a little bit now, and while it is a sick song it's nice to see a new approach. SHM are the perfect guys for the job and this progressive house remix is gonna be huuuugeee. Check out the preview below, hopefully it drops sometime soon.
Later Gator.

Vicci


Here at two of Avicii's new tracks put up on youtube. First vid shows the return of the vocals which we all thought were originally for penguin. Second one is pretty hard for Avicii but I'm diggin it.



It's the God damn Catalina Rhyme Mixers


I could honestly care less how the Catalina Rhyme Mixers sound, with a name like that I'm going to listen to them regardless. Luckily their straight ballers. I give you 2 of theirs with more a electro feel to them since that's what this blog is.

First there Midnight Munch. Sick dance track; takes a bunch of dance songs and adds a sicker electro beat to them

Then we have Alien Thievery. The Glitch Mob goes perfectly with Katy Perry for some reason. Not as upbeat but good nonetheless.

Left, Left, Left Right Left

Never heard a house song with a marching band snare in it, so this one is pretty interesting. It actually sounds pretty good with the synth they've got goin on. Check it out for yourself.

Marsch Marsch - Thomas Gold

New Avicii


Here's a link to find Avicii's live stream from his Las Vagas show in June. About 17min in he drops a new tune which is AWESOME. Hopefully he'll release it within the next few weeks.

http://tuimixes.com/mixes/avicii-live-edc-las-vegas-june-2011/

Trumpet Fanfare


This song is by no means new, but damn are those trumpets sick. Song is from '09 and brings some old school house flair with the horn section. I tried to find a version without the vocals but the song is way to indie and undiscovered to have an mp3 of it. If this song gets popular just remember I knew them before they were cool.

Lola's Theme - Shapeshifters

Hello


Here's a song to help get you through hump day. We got a sick remix to Martin Solveig's Hello. I love Hello and have heard some other remixes to it but never thought they were as good as the original. UC doesn't fuck with a good thing and doesn't overdo it at all, leaving all that's great about the original intact. The bass is a little heavier but in a real good way. Enjoy

Everybody's Dancing


Back from the holiday weekend. Giving you something for that summer dance party that's coming somewhere near you soon. This is a more upbeat, dance friendly remix to All of the Lights by Play n Skillz. This is VERY loosely based on the the real All of the Lights but nonetheless I'm liking it. Its got a way happier feeling to it and is perfect to get your pregame or party started. We're also thinking about doing some tanks soon so stay tuned.
