Listen: Jack Beats – “Epidemic (feat. Dillon Francis)”

Jack Beats has released an album called Careless under Skrillex‘s label OSWLA. Careless is currently number 4 on Beatport right now and is a distinctive album, not one of your typical dubstep albums. This song is one of the best on the album and it gives you a pretty decent preview of the entire record’s sound. Jack Beats and Dillon Francis definitely make a bouncy track for their audience when they play it live. My personal favorite part of the song is the piano at the start transitioning to the drop and the outcome is brilliant. Have fun listening to it, because it is already becoming one of my favorite songs so far!

Listen: Taylor Swift – “We Are Never Getting Back Together”

This year, singer-songwriter Taylor Swift has been busy. She contributed two songs to The Hunger Games Soundtrack, had a voice role in The Lorax, and is preparing to release her fourth album. The album is called Red and is scheduled for release on October 22, 2012. She had to narrow down the 16 songs for the album from a selection of 35 songs. She has also just released the album art which is shown above. She has recently released the album’s lead single, “We Are Never Getting Back Together”. The new single is a classic, catchy Taylor Swift song that is sure to be blasting repeatedly on the radio for months. You can watch a lyric video for the song below.

Stream: Dog Blood (Skrillex and Boys Noize) – Middle Finger EP

Dog Blood, the new duo of Skrillex and Boys Noize, have released a new two song EP called Middle Finger through Boysnoize Records. Fresh off his new pair of remixes for four-man DJ group Birdy Nam Nam, Skrillex and his hard-hitting bass blends perfectly with Boyz Noize’s distinct sound, giving us two new songs to get pumped to. From the group’s Twitter page, it sounds like more material will be on the way, but nothing has been confirmed yet and if there is, I want to hear more! Put on your headphones and turn up the bass for this!

Listen: Swedish House Mafia – “Don’t You Worry Child”

Swedish House Mafia, the electronic supergroup made up of Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Steve Angello, have released another sensational song with John Martin. The vocals are nothing but spectacular — but I mean, come on, it’s John Martin! He sang “Save The World”! The production in the track is powerful with a progressive house drop that is sure to make people jump and fist-pump into the air.

Unforunately, a couple of weeks ago, the Swedish House Mafia announced to the public that they broke up — news that was devastating to the entire EDM scene. They haven’t explained much about this newly released single, but it could very well be their last.

Listen: Cam Meekins – “Sharks”

Cam Meekins is fresh off the releases of mixtapes Blazed and Confused 2, Cam Meekins’ Day Off, and 1993, and he hands us a new free track to listen to, providing us with the perfect soundtrack for SHARK WEEK!! Meekins’ new song is called “Sharks”, produced by Cam Meekins himself, and has a chilled out beat so the next time you’re on a commercial break, just click play and you’ll be able to chill along with the soothing vocals and Cam’s sick flow. You can grab the MP3 for yourself below and be sure to catch Shark Week on Discovery Channel this week.

Listen: The Knocks – “The Feeling”

The Knocks have already brought us huge hits like “Brightside” and “Dancing With The DJ”, and now, they bless us with yet another uplifting summer song. The Knocks are known for releasing catchy songs that are remixed by famous artists around the world and the likes of Madeon, Chiddy Bang, TheFatRat, and Xaphoon Jones have all taken a turn. The version of “The Feeling” below is the original from The Knocks, but I’m sure someone is going to end up remixing it into a club anthem.

“The Feeling” sees The Knocks changing their style a bit compared to their previous song by adding a glitchier sound to the drop, but they still have a catchy beat that we will all enjoy listening to. Check it out for yourself below.

Listen: Maroon 5 – “Payphone (Amarolas Remix)”

Amarolas, a new 16 year old electro producer, released a brand new remix of Maroon 5 and Wiz Khalifa‘s megahit “Payphone”  a couple days ago. The original song never appealed to me, but this remix definitely makes it a great song to sing along to now. You can find more of his mixes on his Soundcloud page or on his website at amarolas.com.

Listen: Excision and Downlink – “Crowd Control (Delta Heavy Remix)”

Delta Heavy, the dubstep group that brought you the incredible “Must Be The Feeling” remix, delivers with a filthy new dubstep banger. The drop is perfect for what comes next as Delta Heavy creates a totally different sound compared to the original song. Be ready to rage when you hear this!

Listen: Avicii – “Dancing In My Head (Tom Hangs Mix)”

Avicii, one of the biggest progressive house artists right now, finally releases the long awaited “Dancing In My Head”, but it’s not the “(Avicii’s Been Cursed Mix)”. In this mix, Eric Turner adds monumental vocals that would sound spectacular in a club or a festival. It’s clear that this song will be a new party anthem. You can watch the creative lyric video for the song below.
