Midnight Music: Tune Crew ft. Silver Medallion – Racecar Driver [Electro]

Tune In Crew has pushed out some surprisingly quality tunes as of late, so I wanted to take tonight and push some electro into your face. That’s right, not only is electro still around, it’s not even BroLectro these days either. This extended mix is exactly what you want from the EDM at shows. It’s got a a progressive edge to it, while maintaining a strong vocal lead. The use of male vocals continues to win all over the place, and whoever is writing their lyrics needs more work. Some of this stuff is just perfect. Check out a quote below:

You’re just a princess in Xanax land, with an uptown apartment & a master plan.
We make out on the rooftop, heartbreak and small talk, save all our change and feed it to the jukebox.

That’s some summer pop right there, infused with some potent backbeats and a 4 to the floor driving bassline that is slightly more bouncy than I thought it would be. This makes for a tune that needs buckets of support, especially in NYC/LA (via FreshNewTracks)

Midnight Music: Raffael De Luca – Groove Radio Mix [Funky House]

Tonight, hit up this 30min of deep, groovy, funky & potent disco house mix from Raffael De Luca. If you don’t know him and you live in NYC, get over to Le Souk downtown and get an evening of grooves into your face. While it’s only 30min, there are remixes here I’ve never heard, in addition to seemless mixing and a serious level of awareness when it comes to the music that’s come before. It’s important to know your history and Raffael definitely does.

Midnight Music: Stromae – Ta Fête (J.A.C.K Remix) [Astonishing French House]

Fresh New Tracks has been killing it lately with stuff I’ve not heard anywhere else, and this tune rounds out the week in a jaw-dropping way. I don’t know where this came from, but if it didn’t actually come straight from the minds of Daft Punk, I’ll be shocked. The track has all of the trappings of French House and it manages to never end up sucking, something that 100% of the DP posers out there can’t do. Put it into your face. That’s the only thing I’m going to say. The nu disco vibe combined with a dollop of proper synth & some compelling French lyrical work needs your attention, and it needs it right now. Who the hell is J.A.C.K. and why the hell haven’t they been touring in the USA for the last decade?
