FUCK

Shit, the Greeks ain't got nothin' on this orgy.

Awake - Le Castle Vania I like that what started out as a simple EDM project by Atlanta-based DJ Dylan Eliand became an electro indie phenomena. Well, at least to our subculture (ha). Check out their facebook page here. 

Luxurious (Lapalux's Bootleg Remix) - Gwen Stefani Don't be annoyed when you read the name "Gwen Stefani." I almost was, and that would've been a shitty mistake. I dig her sexy vocals and sweet sound. Yeah, I said it: "sweet."

Moshpit (feat. The Partysquad) - Ninjasonik Electric guitar synths for the rest of us. I recommend you take on the lyrics as your anthem and live by them (with diligence): "Dive off the stage-- I'm gonna jump in the mosphit, break your neck! We're gonna drink until they call 'last call,' we're gonna smoke until they tell us 'turn it off,' we're gonna FUCK in your bathroom stall, we're gonna jump-- over board!"

Coresplash (Beef Theatre Remix) - Eternal September vs. Pelussje A crazy electro/rock&roll sound not for the faint of heart. It's about smashing unknown things, but for the purposes of this lesson: smash some pussaaaay.

Shuffling and Looking Dumb feat. Krystal (Exgfclub Remix) - Betatraxx This one's from our DROPBOX and it's by a dude from Sacramento, California. Check out his Soundcloud. It sounds like a nostalgic yet sweet Kaskade-Deadmau5 fusion. I like that it puts you in a dreamy, trance-like state where you're blazed and confused but simultaneously keeps you turned on.  +++

SLEEP

Starry Eyed (Penguin Prison Remix ft. Theophilus London) - Ellie Goulding My favorite remix to this track of them all. It's very chill thanks to the soothing rap vocals of TL, who sounds all-too-much like KiD CuDi, but still stands out in his own merit.

You Always Start It - XXXY From a Manchester-based producer, to your bed. Impeccable, multi-layered melodies for everyone, whether you've got the X, or Y chromosome; we don't discriminate.

Stay Positive - Christian AIDS If i didn't know any better (and if these vocals weren't so blatantly not-Alice-Glass') I'd swear this was by Crystal Castles. I'm a little obsessed with Christian AIDS and Purity Ring. No, your speakers aren't broken, it's just their magic at work. The first is as insidious as AIDS (but it won't kill you; promise) and the latter is as pure as it is deep and lo-fi. Here's some more if you liked that: Summon The Sound (Christian AIDS Remix) - S.C.U.M. And another: Paperweight - Christian AIDS vs Murkage. Oh, hey, last one: Ungirthed (Christian AIDS Remix) - Purity Ring. 

Grow (Taragana Pyjarama Remix) - Delorean Remix to a synth-pop act from Barcelona by a Denmark producer. Can it get more international than that? Probably not. It's lovely.

The Day (Yeasayer Remix) - Moby These Brooklyn experimentalists took the plunge to remix one of the king's originals. They've added their signature electro bass, synths, and that vibe you've just got to say "yea" to.

Far Nearer - Jamie xx Active since 2005, Jamie xx joined The xx in 2007 and you know him ever since. He's just as good as a solo artist. More: Beat For - Jamie xx

Christian AIDS - Fever by themightyhealthy

SLEEP

I'll start us off with this gorgeous piece of work.

 Jamie xx - Far Nearer (limited vinyl) by Numbers

Dystopia - YACHT This came out near the end of March, but YACHT has released a new single with a more disco-funk sound called Utopia - YACHT, in anticipation of their next album coming out June 21, Shangri-La. It was impossible to find a downloadable version online so I just bought it on iTunes and uploaded for you guys, just 'cus I know you love us. Bonus: Utopia (Jerusalem Remix) - YACHT. Love me!

Tornado (Fuck Buttons Remix) - Jónsi The original contains nice violin strings and soft piano chords alongside Jónsi's "tender" vocals, but Fuck Buttons has brought synths and quick electro riffs to the table, or in our case, bed. Check out his soundcloud here.

These Nights (ft. OhJuicy) - Sweaters Funny, girly lyrics that lend themselves to those nights when you stumble home before sunrise and slip into bed with your iPod on full blast. Yeah, I do that too. What an anthem. 

Zzafrika (Julio Bashmore Remix) - ZZT No vocals. A visceral experience that makes you feel like you're lying in the middle of an electric zoo. It starts raining, but you don't mind, 'cus you feel just right.


Star Fire Power - Gardens & Villa Disco beats, bass, and synths by musicians with original pop sensibilities. 

Have you seen - DJIDIOT Sent to us on our Soundcloud DROPBOX. The artist claims to be a 19-year-old Norwegian dude living in Paris. It's beautiful.

And all the way from Colombia, Nicolás Saavedra has submitted the track below to our DROPBOX as well. Check out the rest of his stuff on his Soundcloud. It's definitely talent. +++

SLEEP

This post will start you off with a few tracks to doze off to as you lay in bed with that special someone you love (or met a few hours ago), and then send you on your way with a more up-beat temphoe as you drive home after that awkward breakfast you should never have to relive. 

The Suburbs (Arcade Fire Cover) - Mr. Little Jeans Mr. Little Jeans is actually a Ms, and the story of how she got her pseudonym is the best part. If you're a Wes Anderson freak like myself, you know the Indian guy who does all his movies took on the character of Mr. Little Jeans in Rushmore. She claims he "makes [her] smile every time." Me too. This track is probably one of the most beautiful sounds I've heard all week. And who the fuck doesn't like Arcade fire? You know you love us. 

No Diggity (Chet Faker Cover) - Blackstreet Cover of that mid-90s classic from a Melbourne based electro artist. It's much better than in the original. Musical innovation and what can only be described as boldness at its finest. Hear for yourself.


Lammicken - Braids Probably one of my favorite tracks. It's literally ethereal. Literally. Like it uses diethyl ether as a solvent, withers away your worldly concerns, and lulls you into the preternatural realm of sleep, and DMT, and lullified, sexxified love. Oh and it kind of sounds like a Fever Ray - Animal Collective hybrid; just sayin'. 

The Whip (The Rapture Remix) - Locksley You know The Rapture. You love the rapture. You think you're cool 'cus you listen to The Rapture. Well here's your poison. Their multi-instrumentalist man, Gabriel Andruzzi, spun post-rock elements into the original, matching synths and claps to Lockley's rad rock n' roll vocals.

Get People - Away No, this isn't the misanthrope's anthem, though it can be if you're trying to get away from the chaos. Plug in your Bose headphones, tilt your head back, and get lost in this tropical indie blend.

First Snow (Ooah Remix) - Emancipator If you saw Emancipator at Coachella, you know it's for laid-back stoners with high spirits. Or not. Either way this is a great track for blazing. At least I think so (in my not-so-humble opinion ;).

Into Black - Blouse Check this up-and-coming Portland-based dream pop trio that just got signed by the Brooklyn label, Captured Tracks. Oh and check the unofficial video below, created by a troupe of Portland videographers who skillfully sampled scenes from the 1991 film Les Amands du Point-Neuf. Bonus: includes fireworks, strobe lights, and Juliette Binoche.

PARTY

Still Gettin It (Ft. Foreign Beggars) - Skrillex Beautiful meshing of the U.K.'s Foreign Beggars and Skrillex's usual out-of-control shock and awe tactics. Must be blasted, at max volume.

Guilt (DallasK Remix) - Nero Tears up Nero. Beautiful female vocals. Go ahead and indulge, you fuckin' hedonist. We promise you won't feel guilty.

Save The World feat. John Martin (Original Mix) - Swedish House Mafia Behold, the ridiculously anticipated release of the SHM summer anthem. Sure to be played at every club you find yourself stumbling into this summer. Vocals by John Martin. Check it. 

Pacifica (Chasing Shadows Remix) - Spor So sexy it makes me wish it was on a Fuck post. But it can't wait. Entrancing male vocals. Sort of lo-fi, making it all the more appealing in the dirtiest way possible. Woah. +++

Existence VIP - Excision & Downlink "Salvation is reserved for those who pass the test. If you survive, an elevated existence awaits. Initiate Phase I: Power up the bass cannon." Yeah, that pretty much sums up the track. It lends itself to some dubious kind of partying. It is the epitome of filth. Beware.

Love Ting (Them Jeans Remix) - Anna Lunoe & Wax Motif Groovy disco that takes you back... and I mean all the way back, to a time before you were even conceived, a time when your parents didn't have the privilege you all do of getting down to SFP™.

SLEEP

This shit is real, real special.

HR 8938 Cephei(Original Mix) - Deadmau5 OMG DEADMAU5 MADE SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T MAKE MY EARS CRY BLOOD! Yeah. It's that good.

Roommates (Remix) - Now, Now Indie rock from Minnesota? Who knew they produced good shit in the middle of nowhere? Check this out. Sexy female vocals and even sexier beats.

Fiebre Tropical - Chucha Santamaria Y Usted Sick duo from Puerto Rico and Brooklyn, now living in California. Mixing dance, pop, and entrancing beats in an effort to create jungle fever for the rest of us. Yeah, you heard it. Check out their artwork. 

Marriage (Star Slinger Remix) - Gold Panda There have been many remixes but none like this. This shit's been energetically reworked, and then some. Sounds like Hudson Mohawke to me. 

BTSTU - Jai Paul This track celebrates the reappearance of Jai Paul. Completely unique. Beautiful harmony contrasted with a throbbing bass that can only compare to the sounds of the gods gettin' at it. Sick vocals too, sonnn.

Sadness Is A Blessing (Gold Panda Remix) - Lykke Li Gold Panda + Lykke Li is more than unexpected. It's not upbeat, like the rest of those Lykke Li remixes you've got. Shit's dreamlike, creating an ambience of ethereal drowsiness you can only peacefully succumb too. The title says it all. 

Puppets (Royksopp Remix) - Depeche Mode Sick sick sick. Depeche Mode, we thought you were dead. 

Oh yeah, if you're high and you full screen this, it's reallll g00d.


O.G.

SLEEP

We Don't Eat (Adventure Club Dubstep Remix) - James Vincent McMorrow One of the greatest chillstep songs I've heard. Nice lyrics, male vocals, and an air of youthfulness that will never expire. 

Temptations - Gorilla Warfare Tactics NYC based hip-hop trio GWT has release this as its very first song. It's laid back but impressive, rhyming fluidly as you are laid down to sleep.

Lofticries - Purity Ring Daring. Synths everywhere, and it's all constantly moving toward a crescendo. Mix that in with the ethereal vocals (sort of ghostly), and you've got a rather special mixture.

Blacks - Dawn Golden & Rosy Cross Influenced by everything from doomed metal bands to avant noise artists, DG & RC pounds with a calm urgency. Mixing manipulated live instruments, dusty drum machines, and broken synthesizers with textured vocals, this track offers everything you need for a good tripp. Enjoy.


And some more Purity Ring 'cus it's just that good, sonnnnn.

Ungirthed by PURITY RING

FUCK

Nillionaire - Alesso Dude is fire. It's really no wonder he got signed by Ingrosso. 

We Are The People (Crazy P Remix - UK Edit) - Empire of the Sun Bringin' it baaaack. European electr-oh, with an oh-so-seductive chorus. Romantic shit.

Ready 2 Go - Martin  Solveig feat. Kele I turn it on, I set the tone. I don't know, I'm ready to go. I'd show you where and I knew, you were ready to go. Tonight I'm a different guy, forget about the things you know, if you want to do it, we can do it right, I can see you coming, cause I'm ready to go. Is that a yes or no? -- Sexy light dubstep... FUCK$TEP?

The End (Beatman And Ludmilla Remix) - Hyper ft. Axe Girl Fuckin' glorious. Made for those kids who are...uh, I don't know... Warriors of Radness? Fuck yeah. Got that murderous rock-n'-roll-dubstep feel like Bassnectar's Metallica Seek N' Destroy Remix that makes dude's wanna tear it out the frame, and all types of ill shit.

Rolling it Right (DEFEP Bootleg) - Afrojack vs. Adele Love love love these female vocals +++

SLEEP

 I've decided to take some extra swag out of my optimal griminess on this one. Oh and BTW, you do know "Sleep" is kind of a euphemism for "Blaze," dontchaaa? #b00m

This City (Asa & KOAN Sound Remix) - Kito & Raija Lee Basi-kill-y the sexiest shit I've heard all week. And I don't give a fuck if you think it's Monday. Certified dub, ill beats and rad female vocals, but kinda soothing? Fuck yes. +++

Time of the Assassins (Matthew Dear Remix) - Charlotte Gainsbourg I swear the kryzy little synths n' shit sound just like Crystal Castles, sveetly reminiscent "Untrust Us" and Vietnam." The female vocals are a win too.

Light Bulb (ANR Remix)- Rachel Goodrich This bitch be from MIAMI, ftw! Plays guitar, ukulele, kazoo, and charango, all fusing together to create an "eclectic blend of vaudeville-inspired indie pop, swing-jazz and country-folk." Either way, ANR's intervention fucking kills it. Check fucking plusss.

Best Friend (Olympic Mix) - The Drums Oh, The Drums. 'Nuff said. So rad. Male vocals, and--uh--drums.

Ring My Bell (feat. Dev) (prod. Syience) - Donnis In a world where up-n'-comin'atcha MCs are straight up tagged as "street" and "hipster," Donnis defies your attempt to label life until actually feeling something becomes irrelevant. Be-fucking-hold.

Dat Ass - Earl Sweatshirt Arguably the best and surprisingly youngest rapper in OFWGKTA at 17 years old... Free Earl so good, I fuckin' pay for it. 

Midnight Lovers - Matthew Dear Just some indie guy expressing his waka flocka flame, without the waka flocka. And it fucking works.

Opt!mus Gr!me

SLEEP

It's already Hump Day, and that means for the next two nights, you'll need to go into hibernation to be able to survive the utter mayhem that will be ULTRA. Unless of course, you're planning to say "fuck it" to mortal standards, hit up Diplo tomorrow night with the SFP™ crew (fuck yes), and sleep on fuckin' Monday (fuck school, fuck work, but don't fuckin' overdose or go comatose on us this weekend, aight?). And don't worry, you'll be fine. Dyin's for fools.

Sabali (Miike Snow Remix) - Amadou & Mariam No words to describe this. Get it right now if you don't gots it already. It blows me away every time.

20 Flight (Dub) - Bosco Delrey Some of the most serene shit I've heard. They're male vocals but it feels more like he's some sort of adonis. Also, if you're into surrealism and Dali the King (face it, what smart stoner doesn't?), watch the video here. Chien Andalou, ftw!

Sleep (RAC Remix) - Thomas Tantrum So0o0o0o0o0o indieeee, bro. Some chick singing about... idk. Whatever it is chicks give a shit about. Beats me, I'm Ultra Queen †

Whip My Hair - Today FM Ray D'Arcy - James Vincent McMorrow This is fucking brilliant. And James, you're fucking brilliant. +++


Candylane (Bibio Remix) - Gonjasufi Male vocals. Smooov electronic beats. Want somefin' more?


Cloudlight - Eskmo Trippy, dragged out vibes and smoovly drowned chimes. Close your eyes and take a trip. Check out the vid below, hoe!

Wait up, doe. Here's a lil somefin' from Mad Decent. SEE YOU AT DIPLO TOMORROW!
