Irregular beats shake up the traditional house rhythm. Womp, woosh, and eargasms.

As a fan of Ellie Goulding, I was very happy to hear about her new release featuring Tinie Tempah. It features her signature vocals over a fantastic dubstep tune. It’s a cover of the song by Pat Grossi (a.k.a. Active Child), who is also well-known for “High Priestess”. Grossi’s high-pitched delivery and musically luscious sound lends itself perfectly to Goulding’s angelic voice. When Tinie Tempah jumps in to ground the track in a solid rap verse, it completes the diverse genres and interesting concept of this cover. A must-listen song.

Check out this great remix of ‘The Funeral’ by Band of Horses, it’s pretty heavy on the dubstep, but manages to maintain the songs initial integrity.

The Weeknd has consistently provided great music to be remixed, and this is no exception. Paper Diamond has taken this track, and made it unreal. Wait for the early drop and tell me i’m wrong.

If, like me, you rushed to find out what that damn (awesome) song playing on the recent Internet Explorer ad was. Look no further. It’s ‘Too Close’ by Alex Clare, and it’s a great song with a fantastic drop at the chorus.

My favorite musical genre is probably electro and/or dubstep remixes of indie songs, especially when they don’t go overboard on the electronic bit. Dubstep artist Sound Remedy has always fulfilled that role perfectly (for example, check out his remix of Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata), so this remix of Neapolitan Dreams originally by Lisa Mitchell is destined to be in my summer cruising playlist for a long time.
