Asher Roth ft. Vic Mensa – “Fast Life”


Asher Roth let loose a new track entitled “Fast Life” featuring Chicago rapper Vic Mensa.  The mellow instrumental is produced by Blended Babies and complements Asher Roth’s message about not taking “time for granted, because it’s so precious,” as he stated in his Speakeasy.  You can watch the video after the jump and stream the Vic Mensa featured track above.

Strange Talk – “Young Hearts” (The Chainsmokers Remix)


The Chainsmokers are back again after their massive Bastille remix.  This time the NYC duo takes on Strange Talk’s “Young Hearts” and adds their signature progressive house sound.  The upcoming producers delivered as expected with their new release.  Stream their remix to “Young Hearts” above and hit the jump to listen to their remix of Bastille’s “Flaws.”

Madeon – “Cut The Kid”


Popular up & coming producer, Madeon, has been working hard on his debut album. Just today he unleashed a gem entitled “Cut The Kid.” The previously unreleased track was created years ago, but still stays true to his sound with an electrifying beat and interesting samples throughout. Madeon has another strong track to his name with “Cut The Kid.”  Stream the production above.

Coldplay – “Midnight”

Coldplay let loose a new single entitled “Midnight.”  The Jon Hopkins production reminds me of Bon Iver given its mellow vibe and electronic influence.  Coldplay released the new track along with its coinciding visual.  The negative visual effect in music video adds to the overall slow and dark feeling of the track.   You can view the official music video to Coldplay’s “Midnight” above.

Beyonce – “Drunk In Love” (Remixes)

Drunk In Love (Diplo Remix)
