SLEEP

Sleepy as fuck

Fall In Love Too Fast - GRiZ I fucking love GRiZ. I know I say that a lot but this dude is the real deal. He mixes so many styles in his music and is one of the most creative producers I've ever heard. When I  first posted some of his shit I said he plays sax in some of his tunes, which is true and so fucking awesome. And, he releases most of his stuff for free.
Click here to get his new album Mad Liberation for free. Seriously if you don't get is it is one of your biggest misstakes. Ever.


De Humo - The Dandelion War A sleepy ass tune. Fall asleep right when you get home.


Chained (Monument Remix) - The XX The XX played in my hometown a couple of days ago. I wasn't there. I regret it so bad. But, this remix is sleepy as fuck so I might just fall asleep instead of thinking about it..


I Don't Fit in - Suburban Living A catchy american tune from Suburban Living. Check them out.


Peanut Butter (Moon Boots Remix) - Alison Valentine When I hear this I just want to get home. Go straight to my bed. And just die. Mhmm love this kind of music.


Genesis (Easy Girl Remix) - Grimes You get the picture. Just go to sleep already.


I'm out.

SLEEP

Sleepy?


Hangning On ft. Tinie Tempah - Ellie Goulding This shit will make you fall asleep right away. I fucking love the voice of Ellie Goulding!


High For This - Ellie Goulding Why destroy a winning concept? This tune got the same feeling as 'Hanging On' so get ready to sleep like a baby.


Future Wind - Cerulean Also chill as a motherfucker. Awesome vocals and soft beat. What more do you want at night?


VCR (The Antlers) - The XX A even more chill version of a song that was super chill to begin with. You'll sleep TIGHT!


Dreams - Taken By Trees If you simply want to do nothing for a while. If you simply want to ZzZleep for a while. If you simply want to forget about everything for a while, this is your track. Oh, Female vocals is the shit! Enjoy.


Towers (Slow Hans Cover) - Bon Iver What is there to say? Bon Iver rocks and this is an awesome cover of an awesome track. Download it. Listen to it. Fall asleep to it.



Good Night!

SLEEP


Basic Space (Mount Kimbie Remix) - The xx We're all completely over The xx's first album, but this is worth the throwback. Mount Kimbie drags in white smoke, acid bubbles, and deliciously pervasive champagne foam to a seemingly-irreversibly stale track-- let's just call it aural defibrillation. 

wen uuu - Shlohmo Subtle in all the best ways, and soothing after all your best lays. Experimental never seemed so comforting. Plus- word has it, Nicolas Jaar is remixing this. 

The Ballad (Koreless Remix) - New Look Reminiscent of Strange and Unproductive Thinking, isn't it? Canadian synth pop remixed by a Glaswegian producer creates an intimate mood wherein you, your thoughts, your tryptophan binges, your DMT secretions, and all of Saturn's moon can revel in your much-earned comatose glory. 

And I Say ft. Scout LaRue and Will Epstein - Nicolas Jaar Weirdos like me will get overly affected by sexy, yet increasingly eerie vocals and minimalist sounds. Much like Chinese water torture, these vocals will drive you insane; they'll have you waiting for the imminent somethings that seem to never come, whether they be drops of water or unfulfilled lyrics: "And I say..." WHAT!? And you say what, lady!? She never does quite utter it. Can't wait to see Jaar at Coachella. (The track is also called "With Just One Glance.")


Forget (Shlohmo Remix) - Lianne La Havas Poetically negligible moody hooks intercalate the rising UK singer's original, finding their way between the nooks of the crystal lattice that is your central nervous system's synaptic layout. No guitar chords here, just hazy vocals and synths.


Stop Using Logic - Thrupence Sounds like a giant feather weaving between an endless array of chimes. This gem by a Melbourne, Australia-born-and-bred artist makes you forget your left brain and veers you toward the supernatural, the visceral-- the warmth of nothingness. Oh, if you're currently stoned (as you should be), check out the video

Lost in Tokyo - Koreless Punctuating a strange and tastefully unadorned crescendo with the beckoning chants of succubi, this potential lullaby leaves much to the imagination. If you fall asleep, you're doing it right.

SLEEP

Sleep in the nude or you ain't shit.
VCR (The xx Cover) - The Antlers This shit cray. While the xx announced six days ago that they've started working on their second album, I give you this to help with the wait.


Amor Fati (Clams Casino Remix) - Washed Out That Within and Without shit you love, slowed down a few BPM, making for more soothing vocals. Spoon to this.


Kimmi in a Rice Field (Balam Acab Remix) - Twin Sister A remix to Twin Sister's debut LP, In Heaven. It's Experimental pop from Brooklyn that you dig more than ever because beatmaker Balam Acab drowned it. 


Kimmi in a Rice Field (Glitter Bones Remix) - Twin Sister Glitter Bones? An unsigned duo from Chicago who describes their genre as fantasy and "the swinging sound of hoop earrings." Sounds accurate to me. Check it out for yo'self.


Keep Me There - Nicolas Jaar From our favorite American-Chilean musician. Did you know: he's currently studying comparative literature at Brown University. My guess is he blazes all day, makes music, and then pretends to read books when in actuality, he's ripping out the pages to use as rolling paper.

Time For Us - Nicolas Jaar This one has less of a tango sound to it and more of an indie bullshit sound. The male vocals are as hypnotic as it gets. Did we mention Jaar is the founder of his own record label? Yeah, that's Clown and Sunset, bitch.

Balance - Future Islands Pop from Baltimore, MD created by artists who claim to draw their influence from cloudy days and love.


Miranda (School Of Seven Bells Remix) - Surfer Blood Dreamy chimes infused with vaguely mechanical clanking and "demonic synths." 


Here's the video for "Kimmi in a Rice Field." It's probably kind of creepy and I'm probably a freak so there's that.

Shleeeeeepin' it,
amadZ!

SLEEP

by Sam Haskins 

Forty Winks - DJ Bahler Hmmmm... I know you miss Sleepy Head. Get with it.

Classic xx sleep remixxes:

Disco Lies (The Dusty Kid's Fears Remix) - Moby This tracks sucks you in and spits you right back out... right into your bed that is. Support the bald community yo! C'mon, nobody knows a pillow like Moby.

Replenish - Bassnectar Nobody does it like Bassnectar. While most produce catchy wompage, Bass goes classic. Hardcore will never die.

These Habits - Oliver Koletzki feat Pyur Fall asleep to a woman whispering in your ear about how much she wants it. Win? I think so.

Gone - Caroline And if you're wondering what that girl's name is up there, it's Caroline. And she has a song for you. You're fucking welcome.

Love ya,
Opt!mus Gr!me

And a bonus: another Daisy Lowe video. Clearly, she was the pick of the month. Get ready for February. +++

FUCK

Big Booty Bitches (Crizzly Dubstep Remix) - A Lost People For guys who don't want no skinny girls, just big booty bitches, and for girls who actually got that ass.

Escape (Original Mix) - Robbie Rivera Heavy woobles yet smooth synths. Hard yet gentle. Exactly how a your man should treat you.

You've Got the Love (Florence + The Machine Remix) - The xx Warning: only for couples who are actually in love, ehm ehm.

Antonio (Designer Drugs Remix) - Annie "Did you ever really care?" Nope. I just wanted a blowjob.

Raindrops (Doorly's Dubstep Remix) - Basement Jaxx Melancholic dubstep. For when you're sad 'cus you got some but that still ain't enuff'.

Show You - Custom Soldierz Just dub (with sexy female vocals). For those times when you're "just having sex." Nothing new.
