That time of the year is almost upon us and this edition of the Chill Dojo will get you excited for summer weather like nothing else. While we can’t wait for the season of long cruises, warm nights and good times, at least we will be fully prepared with all the right soundtracks for when that day finally arrives.
One song that is guaranteed to be on repeat all season long is a gorgeous drum n bass gem from Polish producer Silence Groove. ‘Dreams Do Come True’ is liquid dnb at its very best, with bright chords and a clean sound that is oozing with joy. Try not to smile, just try. If that last song left you floating on a cloud of happiness, then the latest from XTRAFUNK will ensure to maintain that elevation. The track title is no lie, this is music that will carry you away to where you want to be. It’s not only music that can achieve this sensation though, with some vocalists containing that very special power in their voice alone. LA songstress BANKS is one of those unique few, and when you combine such a gift with the production prowess of TEED, you have yourself a mind-blowing result. Catch the original post from last week here if you missed it. In other news, SF producer Giraffage has been on a roll lately with a string of amazing mellow tunes, which may have just given him the confidence to bring a new take on the classic dance hit from Stardust. It’s a bold edit, but one that has been mixed to perfection and hits all the right notes. And while we’re on the topic of successful remixes, this next trap take on a JT smash by NY dJ eSenTRIK is sure to make some serious waves. In a now heavily saturated genre, it’s polished sounds like this that will be the ones to stand out.
The fun doesn’t end there though, with plenty more fresh beats and tropical grooves from a heap of dojo favourites. Don’t be caught sleeping on this one! Peace out.
