The #TuneOfTheWeek is on Fire! We got ‘Everything Now’

Posted on by nickzois

Everything-Now

It seems that the indie-rock bands love the groove and the new releases prove it! Arcade Fire are back with a disco-driven tune, with Abba-reminisce strings, with a groove that you can dance and slide over, a great choir and some lyrics that we really adore. They talk about how real life and how people believe they have and enjoy everything, when in fact it’s a driven world we live in. I really love the part:

“Every song that I’ve ever heard
Is playing at the same time, it’s absurd
And it reminds me, we’ve got everything now
We turn the speakers up till they break
‘Cause every time you smile it’s a fake
Stop pretending, you’ve got… Everything now”

On May 31, the band released the lead single “Everything Now” from their fifth album, on 12″ vinyl, selling it at a merchandise stall at Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona which they headlined. A day later, a mysterious live stream “Live From Death Valley” was launched and the band released a music video for the song, appearing to have been shot in Death Valley, California.

Turn the speakers up (as they say on the lyrics) and enjoy the tune of the week!

‘Summer Girl’ is not another #TuneOfTheWeek It’s my summer tune!

Posted on by nickzois

When Jamiroquai dropped “Automaton”, i knew somehow it would play on repeat. But, this is not an album that has only one or two, or maybe three good singles. Each track is great! The whole feeling of the album is disco driven and sounds like it’s written on another era. Like it was put in a capsule or something! This kind of music seemed to extinguish from the scene lately, but apparently we are wrong! It was all in Jay Kay’s head and turned into lyrics and music. All singles, one by one, describes different feelings, every one has it’s own vibe that leads you to an era, reminder of disco music that got released late 70s or early 80s.

“Summer Girl” is one of the tracks that grows on you. You got to press replay once, twice and maybe more. Here i have to say, that music (in general) is a feeling and you have to let it grow. If the music and the lyrics are right, then the feeling gets bigger and better! And it doesn’t fade away, because… that’s what music is all about! Here’s my ultimate summer track so… turn the volume up & enjoy (…and dance!)

 

I know that Jamiroquai just released their third video from the album, for “Superfresh” which is one of the most uplifting tracks that you will find on “Automaton” and probably one of the first tracks that got stuck in my head! Enjoy that too… loud! It’s Superfresh!

This is the ultimate #summer2017 club banger. #Cola is the #TuneOfTheWeek Turn The Volume Up!

Posted on by nickzois

When i first heard this tune, i put it on my ‘listen again’ list. And i did play it once more, and once more…. and by playing it again and again i figured out that this tune has such a house groove that if i listened to it on a club, i would drive myself crazy and my feet wouldn’t stop moving. Read below, what Defected Records write about ‘Cola’:

‘Cola’ had barely touched the ground when tastemakers’ ears were pricking up across the board. Having become a byword for quality house music, remaining at the #1 Beatport spot for over a month with their last record, the name CamelPhat and the cult status of the mysterious duo behind it become realised to their fullest with this track. Combining lush, saturated beats with Elderbrook’s crystalline voice which elevates and equalises, ‘Cola’ is an exquisitely sophisticated firecracker. Already snapped up by Danny Howard as his Hottest Record on Radio 1 and championed by the likes of MK, Solomun and Sam Divine, the track demonstrates the full strength of CamelPhat’s unique style and takes them into the upper echelons of today’s finest producers.

This is the Tune Of The Week … which i call the ultimate club banger for summer 2017. Turn the volume up and enjoy ‘Cola’ from Camelphat & Elderbrook.

Posted on by nickzois

rihanna-dj-khaled-wild-thoughts-8

It seems that DJ Khaled is having some of the greatest hits this summer. This time with a little help from Rihanna and Bryson Tiller and a sample from the 10 weeks No.1 single “Maria Maria”, from Santana & Product G&B. This is another release from the ‘Grateful’ album that is full of featuring artists and is out 23rd of June. I don’t need to say much for the tune of the week, you just press play, realize that you’re already dancing to a well-known tune from Santana and watch & listen to Rihanna get sexy again!

The sample from the No.1 single “Maria, Maria”, played by Carlos Santana.

Summer Hits 2017 are updated! It’s #NewMusicFriday and we enjoy more music

Posted on by nickzois

It seems that nothing’s stopping the new releases coming out, for summer 2017. As i’ve noted in a previous post here, songs, releases and new summer music came later this year than usually expected. We keep listening to some of the greatest artists plus newest names in music business, delivering some great tunes to listen to. So let’s see, what’s going on this Friday?

Enjoy these 8 new tunes loud! You’ll love this new music.

  • The Killers – The Man : “funkier than anything we’ve ever done before,” Brandon Flowers said. This is the first single from their forthcoming 5th album. And it’s sounds Huge!
  • Queens of the Stone Age – The Way You Used to Do : Nobody would expect Mark Ronson to produce the comeback for the Queens Of The Stone Age. ‘Villains’, the band’s forthcoming seventh album, is expected to drop soon. Let’s Rock…
  • Kadebostany – Mind If I Stay (Addal Remix) : Here’s an interesting new release, especially for radio audience in Greece, who really love Kadebostany sound. ‘Monumnetal (Chapter Ι) EP’ is here and their first single has an excellent remix.
  • Calvin Harris – Feels feat. Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry, Big Sean : We go crazy with this new ultimate summer funky sound that is dropped every time Calvin releases a new single. It is so groovy that you wanna run to the nearest beach bar, order 2-3 cocktails at once and start dancing. His fifth studio album is released 30th of June.
  • Cris Cab – All Of The Girls feat. Pitbull : The ‘Liar Liar’ singer is back  with a little help from Pitbull (who seems to be unstoppable, featured everywhere!) This tune is as summerish as we want it.
  • Major Lazer – Know No Better feat. Travis Scott, Camila Cabello & Quavo : To be honest, i used to listen to Major Lazer before they got as cheesy as they sound nowadays. But the thing is that the hype is so strong and tunes like this one, will go everythwere, cause it’s catchy, Camila Cabello is becoming huge and that sound seems to be No.1 on teenagers. So, hit that hit!
  • Duke Dumont x Gorgon City – Real Life feat. Naations : Since day one, when ‘The Giver’ got released, i consider Duke Dumont to be a great producer and DJ. He delivers so smoothly the 90s house music scene on today’s audience! I love it. On the other hand Gorgon City are a great duo (played their album non-stop last year) and this collaboration feels so uplifting. Naations deliver bright pop vocals to make the tune sound so catchy and remind us next year, of summer 2017.
  • Robin Schulz – OK feat. James Blunt : OK! James Blunt after the ‘You’re Beautiful’ success has had so many releases, but none of them hit the airwaves as it was supposed to. This collaboration with the remixer that knows how to make a pop dance hit record is what he needed to get on track again.

TheWeeknd knows your #Secrets on the 80s inspired #TuneOfTheWeek . What does he sample?

Posted on by nickzois

‘Starboy’ is one of the greatest releases of 2016 , a mixture of pop, rnb, electronica, hip-hop and many other genres. The Weeknd is the ultimate pop star at this point (among others) and with hits like ‘Starboy’, ‘I feel it coming’, ‘False Alarm’, ‘Sidewalks’ etc… he’s got an album that almost sounds like a greatest hits compilation.

It was about time he released this particular single, called ‘Secrets’ (as i’ve noted here https://goo.gl/voFZwv in a past ‘New Music Friday’ post), one of his perfect pop moments. He uses a music sample from Tears For Fears ‘Pale Shelter’ and another classic on the chorus, from The Romantics ‘Talking In Your Sleep’ , almost like a 2 in 1 song, with a summer vibe (and a perfect reference to the 80s sound).

Turn the volume up and enjoy it loud (video also looks awesome!)

Listen below and discover the original tunes that he uses samples from:

Looking for a House Summer Anthem? Listen to the #TuneOfTheWeek

Posted on by nickzois

maxresdefault

Sonny Fodera has some of the best club tunes we’ve heard the last years. He is British and house music is the main theme here. This is the house music we like to dance to, we wanna listen to and bring it back to mainstream audience as it has lost its path with so many releases, so many bootlegs, so many remixes etc… the list goes on and on.

Defected records has kept it real all the way and that’s why it is probably the best house label that exists at this point. I’m not gonna write more , i loved the track and here’s the 2016 press release for Sonny Fodera’a album “Frequently Flying” released by Defected:

Sonny Fodera’s amazing journey continues with his highly-anticipated artist album Frequently Flying on Defected. Along with an array of tour dates this summer, including his Redlight residency at Sankeys Ibiza, plus standout performances at Hideout, Creamfields and EDC Las Vegas, the album is a true representation of Sonny and his maturing, heavily song-led sound, featuring collaborations with Yasmin, Janai, Shannon Saunders, Alex Mills and more.

Sonny has had a ground-breaking year including his debut BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix, a nomination in DJ Awards Deep House category and a Beatport overall #1 with Gershon Jackson, making him one of the most in-demand DJs and producers on the planet.

On June 2nd this video appeared as his new single on Defected channel. Now this just became HUGE! We’re still looking for the perfect club summer anthem and this definitely takes it to the next level, with the amazing voice and performance from Alex Mills. (The dancers are awesome in the video and the visuals are what i like!)

 

You can also check the remixes below and find your favorite to put it on your DJ set.

It’s never too late to become a #Believer Enjoy the #TuneOfTheWeek from Imagine Dragons

Posted on by nickzois

Imagine-Dragons-Believer-art

I keep listening to this single on repeat, since it was released a couple of months ago. Imagine Dragons release such energy with this song that makes you wanna scream. So, i thought it was about time to put it on the tune of the week section on my blog. ‘Believer‘ is probably the best rock song for the summer and maybe one of the greatest tunes of 2017. You can find it on the latest Imagine Dragons album titled ‘Evolve’. The music video was released on March 7, 2017 and stars Dolph Lundgren. It was directed by Matt Eastin.

 Turn the volume up & enjoy it loud!
