Krewella – Alive (Hardwell Remix)

hardwell - techi

The Chicago-based trio, Krewella, has been making quite an impact on the dance world this year with their unique blend of gorgeous vocals courtesy of Jahan and Yasmine Yousaf with the Rainman’s dubstep, electro house, and drum n’ bass productions. Their single, “Alive,” has hit the top of Billboard’s Dance/Mix Show Chart and Hardwell, the #6 DJ in the world, wanted to keep the momentum of the song alive with his own rendition of the hit. Just the fact that Krewella is catching the attention of heavy hitters such as Hardwell speaks wonders for their quickly rising career over the past year. The remix features Jahan and Yasmine’s easily distinguishable vocals and lyrics, but the familiar song quickly takes a turn towards the signature dutch sound that brought Hardwell to prominence. Euphoric synthesizer chords, stabbing Hardwell synth leads, and a fat bass beat accompany the massive build-up which takes the energy of this song to a new level. Fans of both Hardwell and Krewella will absolutely lose it when they listen to this song as it takes the best from both artists and mashes them both together into a soon to be huge festival banger. If you don’t believe me, then take a listen for yourself and let us know what you guys think. Enjoy!

This preview of Zedd’s most recent remix is nothing short of hard hitting. His take on Empire Of The Sun’s “Alive” showcases his variability as a producer with two different, distinct drops. The first drop comes out with a glitchy, electro sound that demands your attention from the beginning. It leads into the original track’s chorus which is followed by a mellower and melodic drop. This track drops on May 21st but check out the preview below and enjoy!

New Daft Punk Song Revealed In Mysterious Commercial

Last night during the television show Saturday Night Live we got more concrete Daft Punk news as they premiered a new song during a very short commercial. Even if you were watching you could have missed it as it was only 15 seconds long. The commercial consisted of their rotating logo and the two helmets merging together to form the the picture that they revealed on their facebook recently. Even as the infamous duo continues to unveil more news about upcoming new music they still manage to stay incredibly mysterious.

Today marks history for all Daft Punk fans. The picture above was uploaded to www.daftpunk.com and their Facebook page. This is some of the first activity we have seen from Daft Punk since their extended hiatus from music, with the exception of the TRON soundtrack in 2010. This picture not only proves that Daft Punk is gearing up to announce an official date for their upcoming album but confirms that the rumors of their switch to Sony owned Columbia Records to be true. This is a new step for Daft as it is the first record they have come out with that won’t be published by Virgin Records which signed Daft Punk in 1996. Overall Daft Punk has still kept us in the dark about when the album is due to come out or when a possible tour may be announced, but with activity like this we can’t help but expect that this will all come in due time and needless to say many are excited over it.

Krewella – Alive (Official Music Video)

The electrifying Chicago-based trio, Krewella, has just released their official music video for their latest single, “Alive.”

The music video showcases the angelic voices of the equally beautiful Yousaf sisters as they destroy the inside of a house, ignite a bonfire, inspire a romance with their music, and rage it up in the desert with some friends. Rain Man’s gorgeous piano riffs and feel-good synthesizer melodies compliment the Yousaf sisters’ wondrous vocals as the song and video succeeds in making one truly want to “feel alive!”

Daft Punk Rumored To Release New Single ‘Renoma Street’ On July 21st

For years now there has been speculation as to if and when the legendary French electro duo, Daft Punk, would ever release new material. Earlier this summer we heard that Nile Rogers, Paul Williams and Giorgio Moroder have been working with the duo on an upcoming album. Now we have more news that there could possible be a new single titled ‘Renoma Street’ (possibly named after the Renoma Café in Paris), released on July 21st.

Recently in Tsugi, a French magazine, revealed a list of tracks which contained the title of the new single. After being pressed about a release date, the editor and chief of the magazine replied on twitter saying ’21/7′, possibly meaning July 21st which is the same day as an upcoming Tsugi summer compilation CD.

There have always been so many rumors, which are usually all false, surrounding the duo so we always try to take this news witha grain of salt. However there has been a lot of evidence these days suggesting the return of Daft Punk. Nile Rogers has publicly stated that he is working with the group and that material will be released on their next album in ‘maybe June’. Their official website (www.daftalive.com) is now live again. Also, Nile Rogers & Mark Ronson are hosting the ‘Freak Out! Montreux Dance Pre Party’ at the Montreux Dance Festival and there are ‘Very Special DJs’ on the bill… Maybe the duo will be making their return to the stage as well. At this point all we can do it hope and wait for more news.
