Hear Alex Adair’s remix of Camden Cox’s ‘You’re Not The One’

Camden Cox has dropped a new remix EP in support of her late-2018 breakout, ‘You’re Not The One’.

Featuring reworks courtesy of Chaney, frequent-collaorator Jeff Nang and Stagedoor FM-favourite Alex Adair, it’s the latter we’re bringing you today – an edit which keeps true to the bouncy tones of the original, albeit alongside some smart vocal distortions amid a groove-led futuretronic beat.

Hear Mahalo and Milkwish reunite for ‘Social Experiment’

LA-based Mahalo and Polish producer Milkwish have shared the second collaboration from their Perfect Havoc Presents moniker with their high-energy ‘Social Experiment’. Delivering a deep bass-groove and haunting topline, the track leads toward a truly euphoric breakdown courtesy of some gorgeous rave-infused synths.

Gesaffelstein and The Weeknd have shared the video for their new collaboration ‘Lost In The Fire‘.

Directed by Manu Cossu (A$AP Rocky, Miguel, Mark Ronson), ‘Lost In Fire’ comes ahead of Gesaffelstein’s forthcoming album ‘Hyperion’. He will also be debuting his new material at this year’s Coachella in April and NYC’s Governor’s Ball in May.

Hear Chloe Höwl cover The Weeknd’s ‘Call Out My Name’

0

Chloe Höwl has teamed up with Mahogany Sessions’ COVERED series, sharing her powerful new rework of The Weeknd’s ‘Call Out My Name’.

Falling as part of last year’s ‘My Dear Melancholy’ EP, Höwl’s rendition follows the latter’s recent return to new music with ‘Work‘, released back in October,

Hear Radiohead’s previously-unstreamable ‘Ill Wind’

Radiohead have shared ‘Ill Wind’ across all streaming platforms, almost two years on from its initial vinyl-only appearance.

Originally released as a B-side to their ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ (which contained their would-be Bond theme ‘Spectre’), the track was finally made available by the band’s XL Records earlier today.

Hear Calvin Harris and Rag’n’Bone Man’s new single, ‘Giant’

Following his mammoth 2018, Calvin Harris has kick-started the new year with another belter, hooking up with Rag’n’Bone Man for the soulful ‘Giant’.

Continuing the producer’s recent push for old-school house-led/jazz-inspired grooves, the track fully pushes Rag’n’Bone Man’s solid tones, whilst also delivering an instrumental brass-focused chorus which will likely set dancefloors alight.

Listen below:

Hear Sam Smith and Normani’s new single ‘Dancing With A Stranger’

Sam Smith and Normani have shared their highly-anticipated single ‘Dancing With a Stranger’.

Produced by Stargate alongside Sam’s long-running song-writing partner Jimmy Napes, their new collaboration is definitely more upbeat than what we’ve come to expect from Smith in the past. Crooning over an 80’s-inspired electro/R&B groove (think The Weeknd’s Starboy for reference), the duo really showcase how well their vocals mesh together – definitely one for your monthly playlists.

Hear Gesaffelstein and The Weeknd’s powerful ‘Lost In The Fire’

After a week of teasing, French DJ/producer Gesaffelstein has unleashed his new single ‘Lost In The Fire’.

Featuring The Weeknd, the track received its premiere on the third episode of Abel’s Momento Mori Radio Show on Apple’s Beats 1 last night (10th January). The song also marks the latest in the duo’s partnership, with the electronic producer having previously worked with The Weeknd on last year’s ‘My Dear Melancholy’.

‘Lost In The Fire’ will likely appear on Gesaffelstein’s upcoming album ‘Hyperion’, expected later this year – The Weeknd’s new record ‘Chapter VI’ will also be released at some point in 2019 too.
