Dancing With Fire (ft. Stalking Gia)

Americo Garcia and Jorge Medina, known together as Boombox Cartel, once again wowed us with their latest release. Pairing with alternative pop singer Stalking Gia, the duo has created a track that slightly differs from their usual trap sound. “Dancing With Fire” has a combination of trap elements in the buildup and a burst of soaring synths in the hook. Their use of infectious melodies and catchy sounds will definitely make you fall in love with the track after your first listen. The second drop also features their signature electro synthline that just takes its authenticity to a whole ‘nother level.

Safe to say these guys just keep getting better and better at making hits. If you dig “DWF”, make sure to grab it for free here, or on their Soundcloud page.

Astronomyy
The Secret

Soundcloud

Following the success of “Don’t Need U” and “Nothing On My Mind”, 26-year-old Astronomyy is back with another giant hit. Titled “The Secret”, this synth-pop tune is set to be one of his biggest tracks to date. A catchy retro bassline immediately grabs our attention, while his vocals outline an infectious melody. The song tells a story of the feeling you get when your loved one has chosen someone else over you, and the contemplation of your competition. It’s one of those tunes that will get stuck in your head for a long time because of how personal it speaks to you.

One of our favorite British singer/producers is starting off 2016 strong with this release. Definitely keep an eye out for Astronomyy in the near future for more special tunes.

German producer Delusion is making waves with his latest remix of SG Lewis‘ “Shivers”. Talk about vibes – he spices up the original tune with a dance outfit and absolutely crushes it. The soothing vocals go perfectly well with the muted synth melody, while adding character to the soulful atmosphere. It’s a song you can easily jam out or relax to at the same time. The suspenseful buildup towards the middle is another highlight of the track, and it definitely shows how versatile his style can be.

We simply can’t wait for more music from Delusion. Give the track a listen and vibe away with us.

Here’s a tune that will help you hit that reset button to your day. French producer Kidswaste puts out a remix of Khai‘s 2015 hit “Do You Go Up”, and it’s every bit of wonderful. Adding a fun and subtle beat to the original takes the tune up a couple notches while making it upbeat and the perfect evening treat.

We’re excited to see the young producer getting in his elements, as these remixes keep getting better and better.
