“Fevers” by Seven Lions, Minnesota, & Mimi Page

Looks like we have our work cut out for us here as we all missed a lot of music over the weekend and yesterday. The music industry just moves so fast that it’s sometimes impossible to cover everything. Seven Lions, who I saw playing at EDC this weekend just released this masterpiece with Minnesota and Mimi Page. Seven Lions, primarily a dubstep artist, worked with Minnesota here to make a really beautiful melodic track that should not be overlooked. With heavy drops and vivid vocals from Mimi Page, I think you’re going to really like this one.

“Far Away From Me” by Butch Clancy ft. Amy K

Oh, man! First, we get a dope episode of Game of Thrones, and now, we get this new electro/dubstep track by Butch Clancy. You guys know I’m a huge fan of female vocalists, and Amy K completely tears apart this track (btw, that’s a good thing). I’m in a fairly good mood and am chilling on my massive 8 foot bean bag chair. So, a ton of music will probably be coming through this website. Get pumped!

Album: “The Great Gatsby” by Various Artists

Screen Shot 2013-05-12 at 8.25.27 PM

Finally got myself to the movies today to see The Great Gatsby. I hope most of you know about all the buzz about the soundtrack and all the random artists that were featured on it. While the movie contained a lot of quality songs that worked well with the scenes, I thought the music sort of degraded the time period in the which the movie was placed in. Even though Jay-Z helped produce the movie, I don’t think his music should’ve been played so much throughout the film. At one point there was a car with a bunch of black people drinking in it and they were listening to “Izzo (H.O.V.A.)”. Not really characteristic of 1922. However, at the same time it would be kind of cool if all this music was played in that time period and it’s interesting to see how music today works with the same elements of a time period like 1922. Well.. at least at a rager at Gatsby’s house. All in all, Leo made the movie and it was pretty good. See it in 3D and listen to the music below. Get the rest of the soundtrack here.
