Want some melancholic music that reminds you of Explosions in the Sky or Jackie-o Motherfucker? We got something for you: Seabright! A duo from the USA, making music with some great melody, sometimes hard sometimes soft but always great with those distant vocals that make you float away and dream about paradise. When I heard this music the first time, it really made my day. It’s great! But (there’s always a but…) the songs are really short, which makes it hard to get into the mood for their songs but when you found the repeat-button this problem is solved! A lot of free tracks on their soundcloud, we present you our favourite:

Seabright – Rachel and Ryo

Great instrumental track, with those same pure and clear touches of guitar strings reminding me a lot of one of my favourite bans Explosions in the sky. But still they get their own sound! Be prepared to get blown away!

Time for some cool folk music! Carolina Chocolate Drops are three youngsters who use violins, banjo’s and other folky instruments to make some great music. With some nice and strong vocals by Rhiannon Giddens, they make some of the coolest folk music around these days. You can see them live at Dranouter festival in Belgium, other dates check their myspace! We give you one tracks, so you can get to know them. Hit ‘em up style is our favourite, live this song could really start a party. Fresh, new and original, that is what CCD is about.

Some electro tracks we’ve found in our mailbox, keep sending!

Dicknasty! – Not a club mix

Dicknasty already made some nice partytracks, nog he’s back with some cool new stuff. Our favourite new track: “Not a club mix”, some synths which start of normal but after a while start to flip and go crazy, and even get really dirty and hard at 1.16. Loving it!

Swedish House Mafia – One (Sean Linman GET UP! Bootleg)

Sean Linman edited the biggest summerhit this year “One”, he didn’t change much but what he did made it supereffective to get a party started!

DJVC ft. Wonkap – All ’bout Money

Some big dubstep tune by DJVC, this time featering Wonkap. Typical hard dubstep rythms starting, climax coming up and then: hell breaks focking lose! This one is HARD! and this guys is talented, loving it!

Nudge Nudge Nudge vs Katrina and the Waves – Walking on Sunshine remix

Our favourite Polish producer Nudge Nudge Nudge is back with another great remix! This time he threw “Walking on Sunshine” by Katrina and the waves in the blender, you won’t recognise this song, but it’s a really great remix. Laidback but happy, a great summer soundtrack. If you like this remix, you can vote for it here

Monseigneur XIV – Heartphones

Closing this post with the best track we got this week, “Heartphones” by belgian brothers Monseigneur XIV. These guys make some electronic music from time to time and with this track they did a great job. Some Drum ‘n Bass rythm, mixed in with a jazzy feeling and some fancy piano tunes. Reminds me of the great classic “Brown Paper Bag” by Roni Size. Get it (here as a download) while we are still allowed to share it with you guys!

Enjoy these!

Jools is the new name for GarrBitch, some cool electropop, produced by Pickle & Banger (known from their awesome free ep). Some dirty lyrics, some cool and funky beats and you get an awesome result! Like Uffie or Miss Kitten? You’ll really digg Jools then, this is great! The new Ep is called “Dice” and available as a free download! ‘Your Mum’ is a really great track, our favourite but the rest is great too of course. Dirty beats, catchy ryhmes and songs, cool as fuck! Get it get it get it!

Jools – Dice Ep

Peace!

Great news! You can have a listen to 6 new daft punk songs (or at least a parts of them) from the upcoming movie “Tron legacy”! We already put some songs on this blog that might have been made by daft punk but now it is certain that Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem Christo have made these tracks. The full album will be out by the end of 2010 or beginning 2011, let’s hope that day will come soon! You can listen to the tracks on the website of American radiostation The End or at the official Tron Legacy youtube channel. The tracks sound epic, typically movie soundtracks and less danceable like their hits, but it’s Daft Punk so it will be awesome. Can’t wait to see this movie and hear the soundtrack. Enjoy these!

Finally, the internet reveals the debut album “We can’t fly” made by Aeroplane. After Stephen left, Vita is the only pilot left but that doesn’t mean Aeroplane is less great. Still at the top of Belgian Electronic music, their disco is some of the best summermusic you can find these days. We had a listen and loved (almost) every track on this album! This album could go straight in our top 10 list “best 2010 albums”. Next to supersingle “We can’t fly” other songs like “Without Lies” or “London Bridge” got us hooked to this album. The nice balearic disco vibe on this record is irresistible and together with some tracks like “I don’t feel” and “The Point of No Return”, which have a more rocky sound (but are our least favourite tracks), this debut album gives a lot of variety and never gets boring or repetitive. We give you our two favourite tracks (after “We Can’t fly”), but when the album will be released, don’t hesitate to buy this album because you’ll love it for sure!

Aeroplane – London Bridge

Aeroplane – Without Lies

Damnit we love these guys!  The new ep is made by Wazabi – an electronic music duo from cologne -  and has 1 awesome track with 2 great remixes. The original one is called “Optimus” and has a sound which reminds me of the slower and less wild Justice tracks like Stress or New Jack. Beside that a more disco sounding remix made by Yama Dirty Crew, which is my favourite track on the EP. And as a last track, a remix made by Mashed Paper Klub, a harder version of the original, typical MPK style. 3 lovely tracks you can enjoy while party-ing! Get them now:

Wazabi – Optimus

Fuck I think I just heard the number one album of this year, and it’s called “Learning” from this guy named Perfume Genius. There’s no way to describe the beauty of this music, so I advise you to just listen to the album HERE or download the two songs below and then go buy ten copies of his CD so you can play the record for the rest of your days… .

Perfume Genius – Look Out, Look Out

Perfume Genius – Learning

Shit this guy really is a genius!

Enjoy (and way beyond that)

Best artists name ever: Je Deviens Dj en 3 jours is back with a new killer Ep “Trashing Fakers”! We had a listen and loved all the gameboy beats and bleeps, some great 8bit right here! The original track is our favourite, but the remix pack you get with this ep is awesome too! Our two favourites: Dr. Van Pnok, who made a real trashy remix with some dirty sound and raving synths and the one made by FLLD: a kind of Housy and minimal version  of the gameboy tunes. Big love, listen here and buy this here!

And to close this: a great essential mix by Don Diablo, not the usual big tunes but a mix of somewhat every kind of music. Don Diablo – Klassroom Mix @ Kissy Sell Out show (BBC Radio1)

Tomorrow is a great day because the Super Mirage debut album “pretty lies” is coming out! Best part: free tracks to share with you! We already mentioned these guys in our megapost but now we’ve got some more great music to share! They still offer us some great indietunes which reminds us of The Killers or The Bravery. We made a selection out of their debut and give you the best tunes, our top 3:

Super Mirage – Leslie

“Leslie” got a nice laidback flavour, with some Doors-organ in the middle of the song and some great rocking end. Indie pop like it should sound!

Super Mirage – You got me

“You got me” doesn’t start of great but at 00.20 a groovy bass starts and makes this song awesome!

Super Mirage – Song for a go go girl

“Song for a go go girl” is a great title for a great song with a really nice intro. A bit of a singalong song. Great stuff!

Enjoy these tracks!
