Rasar Thejeli - Sacramento

I don't listen to a lot of hip hop but heard this local Sacramento artist Rasar Thejeli do spoken word at TEDx Sacramento and really enjoyed what I heard. Found his pay what you want album online and it its reminiscent some Del the funky homosapien, Atmosphere and a little Jurassic 5... which is pretty good company to keep. Check em out and let me know what you think!

Classixx

Gearing up for a Classixx concert today in Midtown Sacramento and going through too many incredible tracks... Thought that it might we worth compiling some of the favorites and paying it forward.

Let's start off with a new track that I've never heard until today... love it though!


How about an oldy but friggin goody?!
Classixx: "Do you like base?"
Me: Hell yeah I do!


Another oldy but incredibley good... Listening to in again right now transports me back to bougie living in Santa Monica...Sunshine, Beach Parties, Waves and Babes...

A more recent remix that is straight sunshine...

Yacht - Shangri LA

I've been familiar with some of Yacht's music and have really enjoyed what I've heard in the past, but I only started digging into their treasure trove and its really good... Just enough weird, just enough funky, just enough groove, just enough indie... It has all of the feel good spontaneous dance party with friends kind of quality that you look for but can't force... So, to all of my dance party kindred spirits, this one is for you...

A couple free sprinkles for your cuppy cakes...

I walked alone


Le Gourdon (Yacht Edit)


I walk Alone - Weezer vocals meets LCD Soundsystem percussion...


Dystopia (Emperor Machines Extended Funky Re-work) --- a beautiful blend of Indie & Dance party...


Paradise Engineering (No Embed Code)

Psychic City (Classixx Remix)



Or listen to their whole album here:

Ratatat - Cherry (Broke For Free Remix)

Although the remix is new(er), its hard not to get all nostalgic listening to this Ratatat song... Daunting task, but BFF steps it up on this beautiful remix...

Herve - Night Turns Into Day (Mighty Mouse Remix)

For those of you who haven't dabbled, this may just be the perfect foray into NuDisco and House...

Bravestation

It's Friday and we're running out of time till everyone can loosen their collar, roll up their sleeves or let down their hair... so let's cut to the chase with this incredibly funky remix by Nightbox. The song starts off pretty timid so the trick is to use the first minute to warm up all of your dance muscles...because before you know it, you'll be riding on the back of this musical beast into Tropical Funky town.


And if your not feeling quite as musically adventurous, try this remix by Foxkit on for size. Savannah loves this remix



Still a little too much for your tepid musical palate?! Try out this lush and melodic 5 Song EP... a beautiful mix of New Wave, Indie, Alternative, Tribal Pop... Check em out!



Night Cap: This tragically short cover will leave you wanting more... or maybe going back to the top to enjoy all of the songs again!

Dan Croll - From Nowhere

super good stuff right here... The perfect blend of Alternative, Indie & Electronic music. Think Local Natives x Foster

Astronauts, etc

Astronauts, etc serves up cerebral melodic dream pop cuts perfect for space travel and getting lost in new galaxies... enjoy!

Martin Solveing

Martin - Your genius will be rewarded...

Frank Ocean x Ryan Hemsworth

smooth R&B electronic gold being turned out by Frank Ocean & Ryan Hemsworth

Alt-J

Alt-J is a quirky Alternative Indie Pop that will grow on you. A unique combination of Local Natives, Brett Dennen & Primus?... Melodic, Cerebral, Pop, Folksy, Intelligent. Check em out!

Immediate favorites are Intro, Tessallate, Breezeblocks, Something Good, Guitar, Ms

Swiss Lips - U GOT THE POWER

Time for some sugary sweet electronic pop by the Swiss Lips. Catchy as hell and along the same vein as Foster The People... Almost gimmicky at first, but just give it a little time... you'll be singing the hook, fall for the infectious guitar riff and then belt your heart out towards the end...

Arsenal - Melvin (Compuphonic Remix)

Been listening to songs all day long... and this one takes the cake. Warm rhythmic grooving smooth electronic R&B pop

Time to get a little crazy...

Bird Peterson's - Dem Boyz Don Ron


This will be included in a new mix i'm compiling... M#95 - Tookies Sweaty House Party -Hopefully will be coming online in the near future.

The Presets - Ghosts & Hermitude Remix

new stuff from The Presets... not immediately catchy as I listened to this song for the first time a week or two ago and forgot about it until I heard a remix for it today and I haven't been able to get it out of my head. Give it a little time to marinate and you'll come around!
