Labyrinth Ear x Hard Candy: Magnolia

Comments

Hard Candy favorites Labyrinth Ear are the latest act we have tapped to create a mixtape exclusively for our series. It is our pleasure to present to you the ‘Magnolia‘ mixtape that expertly fuses together some of the band’s favorite tracks of all time and some newer stuff that they are currently listening to. They’ve got everything in there from The Carpenters to Sonic Youth and M83… Say what?! Somehow this eclectic mix really works!

Labyrinth Ear had this to say about creating the mixtape…

“This mixtape is a culmination of everything we’ve been listening to currently. It’s a mixture of different genres and eras and styles, but I think somehow the mixture shares some similar qualities in the overall feel of the music. There’s some 90s hip hop, some classical, some chamber pop, some bangra, overall it’s a good representation of both of our tastes combined. We hope that you enjoy the mix as much as we did making it, and find it entertaining“

ColeCo X Hard Candy: Thrillhouse

Comments

The latest mix in the Hard Candy X series is brought to you by the incredibly talented Toronto-based duo ColeCo. They hopped on our radar back in summer 2012, when they released the spectacular ‘El Verano‘ EP, and we’re excited to have them join the Hard Candy X family!

‘Thrillhouse’ features an impressive selection of the finest dance music, skillfully blended together to form a non-stop anthemic mix. It’s a highly polished effort that will surely delight you as much as it has us.

“During the next hour we will infect your brain and transform your mind transcending from space and time (what does even that mean?) embellishing some of our favourite tracks over last year and engulfing you in remixes from a variety of our favourite dance music of all-time. This mix is derived from the depths of your nearest dance floor and will keep your body moving to the sounds of artists such as Amtrac, Luke Million, Oliver and RAC….. Along with a couple of our own including a new exclusive featuring UK’s own Pawws. Lets go to 11! Listen! Indulge! Enjoy! and Dance!”

Sounds like 2013 is going to be a big year for ColeCo, so make sure you are following them on Facebook, Twitter and SoundCloud and grab the free ‘El Verano‘ and ‘Can’t Stop‘ EPs!

Offer Nissim shares MDNA tour mixtape

Comments

Offer Nissim is quite the live DJ, if he isn’t dancing along to the music he’s lip syncing it and delivering the tracks straight into his audience’s eyes like you wouldn’t believe. Offer serves it up somethin’ fierce might I tell you. The Israeli DJ/producer/remixer uploaded a recording of his DJ set from when he opened up for Madonna‘s MDNA tour. I thought some of you would enjoy this mix tape!

If you’ve never seen Offer live, you just must!

What do you think of the set?

Zimmer: Brighter Days January Tape

Comments

Zimmer‘s January mixtape ‘Brighter Days’ is an uplifting hour-long mix, exactly what is needed on this cold wintry day in NYC. We’ll get a full tracklist on Wednesday, but there’s a killer mix of Jennifer Lopez‘s ‘Play,’ swiftly followed by an excellent take on Suzanne Vega’s ‘Tom’s Diner‘ kicking things off. If that doesn’t get you excited, I’m not sure what will!
