 • 0 Comments

Hello fellow music fans!

Welcome to 2018! I’m back from a self-imposed hiatus. I hope to bring you some fresh tunes this year and keep the music love flowing. Do you like what you hear on this countdown? Hit me up on twitter (where you can also see what I’m listening to at the moment), or check out thistune.rocks for all kinds of musical selections.

Much love and here’s to a new year,
_Sam

 

1. Lookas & Able Heart – On My Own


Genre: Trap

What makes this tune is the stellar vocals from Able Heart.

 

2. DROELOE – Backbone ft Nevve


Genre: Electronic

A tune with another set of awesome vocals from Nevve. Love the message this tune relays to its’ listeners – get up and go do something.

 

3. Lost Frequencies – Send Her My Love (R.O Remix)


Genre: Dance

This tune is dedicated to all those who got away. I was in love with the original, but this remix is fantastic. Get ready to be both in deep thought, and head bob simultaneously.

 

4. Lauv – I Like Me Better (Hälder Remix)


Genre: Trap

I love this tune because I can visualize a complete story when I listen to it. Enjoy this awesome remix.

 

5. ZHU – Hometown Girl (Khamsin Remix)


Genre: Dance

ZHU’s tracks are amazing enough, so remixes are no easy task. Khamsin puts a beautifully chill spin on ‘Hometown Girl’. Get ready for some summer vibes.

 

6. Taska Black – Sandpaper (ft. Ayelle)


Genre: Electronic

This month is all about the vocals. Ayelle provides soothing vocals set up against an emotional backdrop.

 

7. Autograf – Smells Like Teen Spirit (ft. Queen Sessi)


Genre: Electronic

As a huge Nirvana fan, I was a bit hesitant to check this tune out. I’m glad I did. It’s a lovely (and much more subdued) take on the original. Kudos Autograf.

 

8. Marc Goone – rewind (prod. judge)


Genre: Hip-Hop

Continuing with the vocal theme this month, enter Marc Goone. Rewind is a solid musical introspection on the past.

 

9. A Different Way (Noizu Remix) [feat. Lauv]


Genre: Dance

Heading to the end of this month’s countdown, I wanted to add something a little less heavy. This is a great remix of one of the biggest tunes of last year.

 

10. Tchami – World To Me (feat. Luke James)(MK Remix)


Genre: House

With all the 90s nostaglia floating around, I get that kind of vibe with this track.

Top Monthly Tune Recap – January 2016

 • 0 Comments

Welcome to the first top ten recap of 2016! I can’t wait to spend the year sharing tunes with you. Here’s my recap for January:

 

1. Snow Dayy – Drift


Genre: Trance

I haven’t featured a trance track in a while. I was pleasantly surprised to come across this tune. Enjoy the 7 minute long journey.

 

2. The Right Stuff (Psychemagik Remix)


Genre: Dance

I absolutely love this remix – in fact I think I’ve had it on repeat for a while. The dance spin and little unique sounds make this one a real winner.

 

3. Leftwing & Kody – Keep On


Genre: House

House tune with a classic feel – reminds me of 90s house tunes.

 

4. Stendahl – Changes


Genre: Deep House

I love coming across artists that aren’t well known. This tune was a gateway into discovering more great music from Stendahl. Enjoy this title tune from his latest EP.

 

5. Caribou – Can’t Do Without You (Manila Killa & Kidswaste Cover)


Genre: Dance

A very dreamy take on the original tune.

 

6. Elderbrook X Andhim – How Many Times (KANT Remix)


Genre: Deep House

I always worry when remixes come out for tunes that sound amazing in their original forms. This remix however keeps the essence of the original and also sounds great.

 

7. Mrmilkcarton – Valley Of The Giants (Original Mix)


Genre: Deep House

Tunes that progress through peaks and valleys are the best. Enjoy this deep house tune that does exactly that.

 

8. Kubix – Run Away (Azaleh Remix)


Genre: Electronic

A very soulful, chill tune. This is one is definitely more of a meditative tune.

 

9. Mura Masa – Your Bones (Khamsin Remix)


Genre: Electronic

A deep take on the original tune.

 

10. Sinden & Herve – Hit & Run


Genre: House

Great house tune with cool bits of guitar strums and old computerized sounds.
