Going back to a more electronic and (for the most part) poppier sound, with some bass music thrown in to spice things up in this PulsarSounds set!
I've included a track by Mø and Diplo, though not the collaboration that topped the top 40 charts (though it should have, it's a great song!). Love the horns on 'XXX 88', as well as its anthemic nature. Hopefully Mø keeps her indie pop sensibilities for future releases!
And oh man, I didn't listen to Låpsley's full-length Long Way Home until after this episode, but it's absolutely amazing!! Very interesting production, and mostly sad but beautiful pop-oriented songs. I'll definitely play more of her stuff in later episodes. Make sure to catch her at Fortune Sound Club at April 26, 7pm!
The Santigold show that was scheduled for today (April 11) got postponed due to illness :( It's been rescheduled to May 12, so if you're still free to attend that show make sure to hold onto your tickets!
After the Juno award-winning trap-influenced Keys n Krates/Katy B track and a house-influenced jam from Beat Market, we get into drum-and-bass territory. This is a fairly new genre for me, and one that I only learned about a couple months ago when Kiara (our music coordinator at CJSF) and Mike Heath (former production coordinator, a.k.a. Hedway) introduced me to this kind of music. I've kicked off the DnB train with the latter person's original work (really awesome stuff btw Mike!), followed by music by an emerging East Van Digital signee Queensyze - both an original and a remix of a fellow EVD artist's track. The DnB train concludes with a remix of Kytami's 'Bass is High' by DJ Generic.
I finish off the show with four slightly more alternative-pop oriented tracks.
Next week I won't be here. April 23 we'll be back to the normal 7-8:30pm schedule. :)
