2012 in a nutshell

Cool mashup of all the biggest songs of 2012. Good edit of all the music videos too. Back to the grind.


After Hours

OVERWERK has recently released a new EP just last week. You can listen to the entire album here. Pretty cool thing that artists have been starting to do nowadays is that you can buy the album directly from his site for whatever price you want. Yup, name your price for the download, and with it you also get some cool freebies like ringtones and desktop wallpapers. Always awesome to see local Canadian artists coming out with really great material.

Edmond Huszar is OVERWERK. The 23-year old producer and songwriter from London, Ontario, Canada who introduced himself to the world of electro with the release of his debut EP “The Nth °” last November. Now, one year later, he follows up with his highly anticipated sophomore EP, “After Hours”.

The name OVERWERK stems from Huszar’s early passion for graphic design. Originally the title of a work-in-progress design portfolio called “over worked”, Huszar adapted the name while paying homage to electronic music pioneers Kraftwerk. OVERWERK now represents the purest expression of Huszar’s own creative genius.

His sound is undeniably unique in itself as it blends the hard-hitting complexities of electro with the sweeping melodies of house music. What stands out the most, however, is the distinct quality and technicality of his music which firmly sets him apart from the electro community.

“After Hours” is a testimony to the tireless effort and love for music that defines Huszar as an artist. With the utmost devotion to music lovers, he promises to leave fans and first-time listeners with an unparalleled experience. To coincide with this special release, OVERWERK will be bringing his epic sound to clubs and festivals across North America and Europe.

Sorry for the week long absence. Be back tomorrow with some kind of mega post. God I hate Mondays.

Fareoh & Archie V – 2012 (Twenty Twelve) (Original Mix)


Cazzette – Beam me up

Happy Friday.

Listen to this.

I don’t know which is better.

The song,

or the video.

Just awesome.


Avicii & Nicky Romero – Stranger

Seriously like a goldfish today…

Surprise! A midterm that you completely forgot about will be all up in your face tomorrow morning at 8am. Better get on that so I don’t get molested tomorrow.

In the mean time here’s a new one by Avicii and Nicky Romero


We come running

Happy Friday. Party on.


Love is all I got – Feed Me & Crystal Fighters

New music video for Love is all I got, a collab between Feed Me and Crystal Fighters. One of my favourite songs of the year so far. Beat is awesome, lyrics are awesome, video is awesome. I can’t get enough EDM lately. High energy, fast paced tracks to keep up with life.


Leonardo D’Avicii

A new track from Avicii ripped from his Creamfields 2012 set and extended by Overline. More of the usual from Avicii. Catchy. Still feels like summer time. Quality isn’t the best yet until official release. Mike Posner is okay.


Silence is golden. Sometimes.

Whats with all the noise?

Peace and quiet is nice all but what about the rest of the time?  There isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t take a step back and drown my mind in the music. In fact, I tend to do this as often as I can, whether it’s to wake myself up in the morning or just to fill the silence as I go from point A to point B. But saying this is as pointless as saying I like to sleep. Everybody likes to sleep, just as everybody likes music. That’s what makes it so great.

Thank you Captain Obvious…

Everyone has their own musical tastes, I know this is prett clear. But the awesome thing is the infinite amount of creative possibilities that the world of music gives us. From dub-step to jazz, rock and roll, classical, rap and everything in between, there is always an audience that understands and can connect with it on a personal level. If you happen to not enjoy a certain genre, it’s probably just because you don’t understand it in the context it’s meant to be appreciated. Don’t feel bad, everyone’s brain is different. But don’t be a musical snob either. Everyone’s brain is different.

What are YOU listening to then?

This brings me to the point of today’s post. One of the greatest joys I encounter in day to day life is simply hearing a song for the first time, a completely new combination of sounds, beats and rhythms, and having my brain tell myself “damn, this song is awesome.” I’m sure you’ve heard that one of the steps to obtaining eternal happiness is finding it every day in the world around you. Well music is one of those things, it’s not going anywhere and it will never get old. We’re one step closer on the pursuit of happiness guys. You just need to remember to stop for a moment and appreciate it. Fortunately with this great thing call the internet and social networking, I don’t have to keep this infinite supply of good feelings to myself. You may not like some of it, but I did, and sharing is caring so why not.


Check out this one I heard the other day by Madeon, a progressive house producer from france. (This is my way of playing around and learning the capabilities of wordpress as well. Success!)
