coachellapresale

Just as we were finally done unwinding, unpacking and overcoming those Coachella blues, Goldenvoice puts the manic in Monday, delivering us faithful patrons with dates and advanced sale information for the 2014 festival. The three-day music and art festival will continue over two consecutive weekends; Weekend 1 during April 11th-13th and Weekend 2, April 18th- 20th .  Thankfully, we can put all those rumors of Coachella leaving the Empire Polo Field home base to rest, as Goldenvoice announced earlier this year that the southern California festival is here to stay in Indio. Advanced ticket sales begin this Friday, May 24th 2013 at 10 AM PDT with a payment plan option available to those hesitant to open their wallets just yet!

16 Bit Lolitas – Chant A Tune / Deep Space Girls (Remixes)

16bit

Crossed between a few groovy and progressive chords with melodies consisting of a deep and dreamy sound, the original work of 16 Bit Lolitas has evolved into a more complex yet smooth rework that resembles the diverse sound of everything from FC Kahuna to Booka Shade. It is two remixes mastered by Jeremy Olander and DAVI that I already have on repeat and fans of a more mature and original sound can check out on 16 Bit Lolitas’ label Bits & Pieces today! Listen below

Justice – Access All Arenas (Album)

The French electronic duo from the house of Ed Banger Records has kept us waiting long enough for their live album and at last it’s here to add to our collections. Justice, composed of Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay have contributed greatly to the rise of the electronic music scene, pushing the envelope with their rock star lifestyle and influenced beats in arenas across the globe. Released with 14 tracks, and every track that an unfamiliar fan would ever need to get acquainted with their boundary breaking sound, the album echoes with cries of fans in the audience that have you reminiscing of their white lit up cross blinding you in front row. The album was recorded in France at the Arena of Nimes last July and although it’s been almost a year since then, their sound still creates chills from start to finish.

Julio Bashmore – Battle For Middle You (Jim Rivers Future Bristol Boogie Re Rub) [Free Download]

JimRivers

When I think of the best in deep house of 2011, Julio Bashmore’s afterhours anthem is what comes to mind. Infused with its deep bassline and repetitive chant that resembles the likes of a disco melody, “Battle For Middle You” has our feet stomping along with the vocals each time it hits the dance floor. UK’s Jim Rivers has cooked up a special rework that compliments the original with his underground tech sound that gives Bashmore’s a run for its money. Enjoy the free download below!
