Yuksek Feat. Oh Land - Last of Our Kinds (Michael Garçon Remix)


So happy for the rush of classic disco sounds of late! French producer Yuksek has started his own label, Partyfine, and check out the first release! He's teamed up with brilliant Danish singer Oh Land for Last of Our Kinds. The EP promises greatness for sure! While the original mix that drops tomorrow sounds a bit darker in parts the Michael Garçon remix is all sunshine and happy times. The groove is simply outstanding and a must this spring! LOVE that this organic type of music is getting a big comeback. Oh's voice is perfect for this sound and we're real curious to hear more. Enjoy below!

Mariah Carey & Miguel - #Beautiful - Video Premiere

Mariah Carey and Miguel's hashtagged single #Beautiful has really grown on us over the week! One might even say we love it! The summer feeling is incredible and the overall sound we think will appeal to a large crowd, not just Mimi's lambs and us, haha. Chart predictions are it's gonna have a HUGE first week in the US. Nice! Now, the video... The thing we love most about the track is it simplicity and laid back approach. The visuals not so much. It looks contrived and the chemistry is lacking for sure. It's also so overtly sexualized towards the female body and we've seen that a billion times already. But then again, this IS a Mariah Carey video - it's wouldn't be complete without short skirts, flowing hair and high notes, haha. Moving on - we love the song!

Lana Del Rey - Young and Beautiful - Video Premiere

Lana Del Rey's haunting and gorgeous Young and Beautiful is the lead off single from The Great Gatsby soundtrack. While the movie has started to receive less than stellar reviews this song has started to get some Oscar buzz around it. It's truly magnificent and timeless. The Sophie Muller directed video just premiered and Lana evokes some truly old school Hollywood shots. In this day and age it feels rare to have a video really take its time and have not that much going on. Long takes and head shots in the school of Marlene Dietrich realness paired with a gangster tear tattoo. Enjoy below!

Jennifer Lopez Feat. Pitbull - Live It Up - Premiere

Jennifer Lopez is readying her 8th studio album and she's done a three-peat by bringing back RedOne and Pitbull for lead single Live It Up. Yeap, this marks the third lead single in a row for a JLO album with this lineup. Maybe they should start a band? There's a lot going on here that's for sure, like a wall of sound hitting you, haha. Champagne corks popping, synths cranking, woohoo, Pitbull barking YOLO, clapping hands! Someone wants to OWN the summer parties this year that's for sure. Considering the fact that her On The Floor and Dance Again videos combined have close to 900 million plays on youtube who can blame her! Let's fuck tonight! Thoughts?

David Bowie - The Next Day - Video Premiere

David Bowie has once again teamed up with Floria Sigismondi and created imagery that extends beyond just selling a song. Starring in The Next Day are also Marion Cotillard and Gary Oldman - amazing. The four create stirring content that already had it temporarily banned on youtube and now age restricted. The lushness of the visuals paired with the religious theme and social commentary is really striking. Classic iconography such as stigmata and flogging paired with Bowie as both a Jesus figure and an elusive pop icon makes for a superb watch. A lot is squeezed into less than 3 minutes of film. A must watch! Here I am, not quite dying…
