From myself and a few other lucky municipal employees, happy snow day! Really vibing to the deep house beat of the two Parisian deejs that make up Montmartre, and now I want to watch James Bond again. Yum. See you tomorrow.

★ Adele – Skyfall (Montmartre Remix) ↓

♬ Hardwell feat. Amba Shepherd – Apollo (Acoustic Version) ↓

Feeling a bit ill this evening, so this new acoustic of an old Hardwell favorite really resonated with me… Enjoy!

After a seriously amazing friend scored us tickets to a very intimate preview of Dirty South‘s new album “Speed of Life”, my faith in house music has been completely renewed. Booming basslines met emotional vocals to delicately pattern the beautiful melodies developed by Mr. Roganović (read: Serbian-Australian hotness). Enjoy the shit out of these two — happy ravin’ Thanksgiving!

Update (11/19): This remix of Lucid Dreams from Above & Beyond‘s latest session of Group Therapy is just too good not to share.

20-year-old Aussie deej hits money again with his latest, a beautiful, instrument-filled remix of “Atlas Hands”. Thomas Jack has really grown into his own with these happy-go-lucky, funkier pop songs. Each new remix has an unexpected twist to it that gives it a smooth, beachy feel… great stuff :)

I’d heard some rumors, and on October 25th, Roseland confirmed the bad news: they will be shuttering their doors at the end of April ’14. As with the passing of any dear one, there are a slew of shows planned to honor its glorious near-century. But before we start the tears, we want to know: who would you most want to see? I don’t care if it’s someone you’ve seen there, saw at Ultra, or want to see for the first time.

★ Stromae – Formidable ↓

Francophile or not, this video and song are so powerful you can’t help but empathize. As iTunes’ #1 French popstar Stromae sings of a love (and by default, himself) lost, the beat syncs in and a twisted story of strings and loss plays out.

Now, for the true Frenchies out there…

★ Parov Stelar – Catgroove ↓

While we all grieve amidst the news of Roseland’s shuttering, I thought it only proper to pay respect to its original days in 1919 as a swing club, by presenting a recent favorite Austrian DJ who takes fun, bouncy swing and adds an extra dance-music kick. Parov Stelar performs with a band during his live shows, to create individually beautiful performances that mimic two other favorite performers, Wax Tailor and Gramatik.
