Song of the Day - Coming Home - Gorgon City


Today's song is from a British electronica duo I only recently discovered, though they've been around for a couple of years already.  I just downloaded their brand new album, Sirens, and this is the record's opening cut, a pleasant, head-bopping tune that fits well equally as a hypnotic lounge song or a late-night dance floor groove.  Check out Coming Home...

Song of the Day - Say My Name - Odesza, featuring Zyra


Here's a sweet little dance tune by electronic duo Odesza.  It's from their sophomore effort, In Return, and from the sounds of it and the looks of their popularity, these two are ones to watch, for sure...

Song of the Day - Ten Feet Tall - Afrojack, feat. Wrabel


I'd purchased the latest album from Afrojack a few months ago and after a few listens, I forgot about it, even though I really, really liked it.  Well just recently I've returned to Forget the World and remembered a few gems, including this one featuring American singer Wrabel, who sounds to me a lot like Max George of The Wanted.  It's a really nice song!  So check out Ten Feet Tall and have a Happy Thursday...

Song of the Day - Crazy - Ornette



I've been discovering lots of new stuff on Spotify lately that I would not ordinarily have found otherwise.  It has definitely become one of my main sources for new music.  I've found some nice gems over there, many of them of the chill/lounge genre, and here's one I found to be very appealing, chill through and through.  I really couldn't find anything on the artist, though it sounds like she's got a French accent....I dunno, but those French make some nice lounge music.  Anyway, check out Crazy and have a great day!

Song of the Day - Rather Be - Clean Bandit, featuring Jess Glynne


Finally, it seems that a lot of great new music has been hitting the pop stage of late, and here's one from U.K. group Clean Bandit, featuring some pretty soulful vocals by a singer named Jess Glynne.  The song is sweet and airy, and it's definitely a winner in my book.  Check it out...

Song of the Day - Wild Child - Wekeed


Here's a funky little ditty I discovered recently on Spotify. It's from a French electronica/chill duo called Wekeed and it's from last year, but the song surely sounds summery to me, with a light-hearted rhythm and equally bright, dubstepish vocals.  Check it out...

Song of the Day - Latch - Disclosure


More than a few months ago, I issued a hot song alert for Disclosure's F for You, featuring Mary J Blige. Well here's the Brit electronica duo's newest single, Latch.  It features the vocals of Sam Smith, who I just featured here last week (also with Mary J!), and it's a lot slower, less funkier, but more soulful than the previous tune.  Check it out...

Song of the Day - F for You - Disclosure

HOT SONG ALERT!!!


rap-up

I caught today's song just last night via Facebook. You see, there is a remix of this song with Mary J Blige, which was posted on her page (not featured here, unfortunately, but check out below for the link.).  The Queen of Hip Hop Soul added her own vocals to this very catchy and funky electronic song by Brit duo Disclosure, and she and the song are slammin!!!!

Unfortunately THAT video is only on YouTube, which I highly recommend you watch here...but only after you check out the original version here.  It's not even available on iTunes yet, but it is one hot song!  .

Song of the Day - Relax - Calvin Harris

Relax
I've come away with a panic attack
The spinning lights make it hard to react
Catch your breath, take your furniture back

It's for the taking
All these girls are waiting
Love's not god forsaking
And that's worth celebrating

Here's a catchy, rhythmic ditty from Calvin Harris' 2009 Ready for the Weekend album. This is exactly what I'm going to be doing very soon after a hellish school year....nine more days...
