Dance Tracks You Should Add to Your Set A.S.A.P.

Please hit us up if you know some tracks I might like (bonus points if it’s music you’ve produced yourself). For more awesome dance tracks, check out our Spotify playlist.

Absurde - Ogni Pensiero Vola

Taken from the DJ’s new EP Folding The Dishes, this track is a perfect encapsulation of Montreal’s idiosyncratic underground techno scene. I’m calling it: Absurde is the Canadian answer to Buttechno.

Montel - Let’s Give it A Try

The Belfast DJ has made quite a name for himself in recent years. In terms of party anthem, this one is a no-brainer.

starlight - Untitled A

I like how the pitched up vocals give a bit of R&B swagger to this lo-fi house beat. Taken from the genre-bending album Mixtape Purple, released by the indian label Magic Frequencies.

SCORPIO - North Star

A grimy disco house jam taken from SCORPIO’s album Impulse. I couldn’t find much info about the guy, but this release is pretty dope.

Camomile Dawn - Westover Road

You turn to Camomile Dawn for sick house grooves, but what do you know… You get some pretty decent dating advice in the process. I’m of course talking about the Dawson’s Creek excerpt that punctuates this vaporous single from the Istanbul DJ.

Painterly - Just Another Yup

Some sunny grooves straight from East L.A. Need I say more?

PYT and Viva Records bring you a quintessential debut EP straight out of East Los Angeles from long time househead, PAINTERLY! This smokey, end-of-summer club release is so packed full of house jams and jazzy grooves from the former RAC and STRFCKER collaborator that we find it hard to pick a favorite! Included are 3 mind bending remixes from the likes of Information Center (formerly @poolside / @cosmickids), Redbull Threestyle Champions @djnickbike & @adamdoubleyou, and the mysteriously nondescript @nialwemyss.

Fernanda Arrau - Maleza

How can a track rock so hard, and yet not take itself seriously at all? A Spanish retro-futuristic disco gem that should light a fire on the dancefloor.

"Cook", su debut para el sello "Yung Dumb", la encuentra presentando cuatro canciones originales que profundizan esta nueva búsqueda y mayor riqueza en su lenguaje musical. La homónima es la que quizás mejor lo muestra, aportando texturas atmosféricas y melódicas a sus ya reconocibles líneas de bajo. El lanzamiento es coronado con un remix del canadiense Nautiluss, parte de la familia del sello, que tiene base en St. John's, en la isla canadiense Newfoundland, y que nació después de organizar fiestas por años. El interés ahora ha girado hacia lanzar música que muestre su amplio espectro de preferencias dentro del mundo de la música electrónica. El EP "Cook" da el punto de partida para sus lanzamientos de otoño, y estará disponible a partir del 28 de septiembre en todas las plataformas digitales y también en vinilo.

The Mechanical Man - Bannerman

A DJ from Napoli releasing an EP on the Ontario label YUNG DUMB… If this isn’t the Internet bringing people together, I don’t know what is. The Mechanical Man makes garage house that sounds delightfully retro. Check him out.

The Mechanical Man delivers two deep and introspective analog cuts for the YUNG DUMB Records archive. @tmm82
