After hitting the SoundCloud artist pages hard, I’ve arrived at an extensive list that will blow minds globally. Some of the most soulful, hard-hitting tunes are all here and all for you. Enjoy Powerful Picks, this week focusing on some hot up-and-comers of 2015.
Zedd – I Want You To Know ft. Selena Gomez (Hella x Pegato Remix)
This tune is pure ear candy. I’ve never heard of either Hella or Pegato, but I’m so glad I have. I haven’t heard melodic house this good since Matt DiMona. Soul-touching at it’s worst, life changing at it’s best.
Download “I Want You To Know ft. Selena Gomez (Hella x Pegato Remix)”
OJIxVOLTA – Game Plan ft. Jon Bellion
I’ve been a fan of Jon Bellion for years now, seeing him team up with some fresh new producer’s on a superbly original tune is simply awesome.
jackLNDN – Firing Line
In deep house fashion, JackLNDN drops “Firing Line,” his first original after a long line of remixes. JackLNDN tunes are never one thing, there’s a bit of disco, tech, deep, all thrown into a comfortable cluster.
Waterchild & Moodsmith – All Day
Wit hypnotic drums, well-sampled vocals, and fascinating guitar work, Waterchild and Moodsmith piece together “All Day,” a tune you could easily listen to all day.
Brig – Bad
Brig (formally The Brig,) has released another clusterf*ck of bass and sound with “Bad,” the tune roars with intensity, filled with unexpected drops around every corner.
Zedd ft. Selena Gomez – I Want You to Know [Crankdat Remix 2.0]
This is one “I Want You To Know” remix that gets down-right hard. Seeing as a light, poppy remix of this tune is featured on PP, this one’s for fans of a darker side.
Download “I Want You to Know [Crankdat Remix 2.0]”
Subtact – Restart
In supurb future bass fashion, Subtact unleashes “Restart,” a melodically impressive tune with handfuls of sick synth leads and trap percussion. It’s everything a future bass track should be and then some.
JOYRYDE – Speed Trap
JOYRYDE unleashes some unexpected deep house verses in a track that had you thinking trap (hince the title.) “Speed Trap” is a fun ride all the way through, especially for house fans.
Ingenia – Sparks feat. Djoly (Radio Edit)
With melodic fierceness, Ingenia’s “Sparks” makes it’s way onto Powerful Picks and into your heart. A classic progressive house tune that should be heard in any good prog set.
SMLE – Every Chance You Get
The anonymous duo SMLE have surprisingly wiped out their SoundCloud and dropped a new original tune, leaving their remixes in the past. Simply put, the new SMLE is already proving to be awesome.
Download “Every Chance You Get”
RÆVE – When Love Hurts (Breathe)
The guitar riffs tear into your mind the moment you hit play. RÆVE’s new tune is moving, spiritual, and acts as another outstanding example of the innovative directions tropical house and it’s curators are taking.
Download “When Love Hurts (Breathe)”
Chordashian – Skyscraper Souls feat. Freedom Fry (Fred Falke Remix)
Fred Falke has formed a remix that is intelligent no matter how you look at it. The timing, construction, and most importantly, melody, vocals, and theme come together beautifully to form one hell of a jam.
Gallant – Weight In Gold (Myles Travitz Remix)
Myles Travitz is making mad moves, remixing a currently trending tune right now, saying he did the track justice is an understatement. The track hits home with every suspenseful beat.
Download “Weight In Gold (Myles Travitz Remix)”
Scavenger Hunt – Wildfire (Joshua Walter Remix)
Joshua Walter enhances one of my new favorite acts I’ve recently discovered, Scavenger Hunt. The original is euphoric blend of indie, electronic, and a bit of ambient, topped off with well-articulated vocal melodies and lyrics. Joshua greatens this experience with a hyper-smooth house injection throughout.
Josh, recently discovered and emailed on soundcloud
Hellberg – The Girl (Color Source Remix)
This is one of the best fusions of heavy bass and future bass I’ve ever heard. Color Source is damn creative and earn his spot on this Hellberg/Monstercat remix package.
R.LUM.R – Be Honest (Attom Remix)
With smooth dexterity, Attom dishes out the silky smooth chill remix of “Be Honest,” if you need a song to tune out the world and just have a moment, this one is for you.
Life of Dillon – Overload (Bobby Brush Remix)
A tune that was in dire need of a remix “Overloaded,” has received one from one of the hottest artists in the chill/melodic house scene, Bobby Brush. The tune is a sheer pleasure at every passing moment. Hear it now.
