NEW-VEMBER TUNES BONANZA

Posted on November 8, 2012 by | Comments Off

William-Adolphe Bouguereau (1825-1905) - Flora And Zephyr (1875)

In honor of this Saturday’s Nouveau Riche, we’re giving away MORE NEW TUNES for you and your cats.  First up, Gavin Holland hits us with “Zephyr,” complete with slicing dubstep bass and a Nintendo-style whistle melody:

 

Nacey remixes fellow DC’ers Brett (our buds Kevin and Mick from The Dance Party) and the results are silky smooth:

 

and Steve Starks comes with the heavy trap/trance tune “In My Head” — think Dipset meets “Unsolved Mysteries” meets M.I.A. (or something).

 

SEE YOU GUYS SATURDAY AT U STREET MUSIC HALL!

The System - Motha (Party Bros. Remix) cover art

Chris Burns and I (a.k.a. Party Bros.) had the pleasure of remixing 80s legends The System.  They’re putting out a new album after all these years, and “Motha” is going to be the first single.  Free download!
