Long Time Coming - Merry Christmas!!!

Sup?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!! And I wanna wish you all a very Happy New Year too from us at STT.

It's been a while since my last and a lot has happened since then. I had what seemed like an endless month of academic torture during which I barely kept track of the music scene. And after that I've just not gotten back into a routine.

I do however have a lot of good stuff to put up and a lot of people have been on my back to do a post so I decided to get on it and give you guys a Christmas and year ending gift.

I'm sure all of you'll have noticed the new look to the blog and I quite frankly do not really dig it. Its the new template and shit. Still working our way around it so be patient. We'll be rolling out the new much needed look soon enough.

Here goes with the music. I'm not saying much bout each track. You'll have to just trust me with them -

Open Your Eyes (Original Mix) - Alex Metric & Steve Agnello

Alive - Dirty South & Thomas Gold ft Kate Elsworth

To The Starz (Break The Noize & The Autobots Remix) - Modestep

I love this track Be There 4 You by Kyau & Albert. Above & Beyond took it one step ahead by mashing it with Daft Punk's One More Time. Check it out.

Of Live Shows, Mad Music and Pigs

Yeah I got him to pose. (With a lil help from a friend)

Sup?

Last week we saw Ummet Ozcan live. And it was a mad time! He played a nice progressive set and for me, the highlight of his set was Reboot. That track totally made my night. xD


Here's a small souvenir of sorts -->

So its been a long time since I last posted. I've been meaning to post for a while now. I had decided that rather than making one huge post, Id do a series of smaller posts as and when I get good new stuff. But that never happened.

So yeah, heres another post with a bunch of songs that I've really enjoyed in the last couple of months and some that are fresh out the oven (excuse the pun!).

Flash - Gareth Emery & Ben Gold
Super melodic!

In The Air (Extended Mix) - Sultan & Ned Shepard, Morgan Page & BT ft Angela McCluskey

I think the artists say it all. Very nice prog.

Glad You Came - The Wanted

Catchy track.

Rabiosa - Shakira ft Pitbull

Shakira kills it in the vid!

Champagne Showers ft Natalia Kills, Sexy & I Know It, All Night Long - LMFAO

Pretty much the usual LMFAO. Their album's pretty much the usual electropop.

Sunrise (Extended Vocal Mix) - Marcel Woods

I love this track!!!

Club Paradise - Drake

This just dropped. Pretty good!

Shine (Original Mix) - Alex Q

Beautiful progression on this one.

Run - The Knux ft KiD CuDi

This has a super catchy chorus!

Cheers (Drink To That) - Rihanna

Drink to that!

Without You - Usher

Produced by Guetta. Nice for a change. :P

No but seriously, Guetta was way repetitive in the middle for me and this was a change for good.

The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Maximal Crazy - Tiesto

Ok this is a MONSTER track!!

First Of The Year (Equinox) - Skrillex

The End (Original Mix) - Tommy Trash

Funky house..

Lunar (Original Mix) - David Guetta and Afrojack

Another good house track. And again not the repetitive Guetta.

Tha Carter IV - Lil Wayne

Mr. Carter just dropped this album. Its pretty good. Here are some of my faves of the album -

She Will ft Drake

How To Hate ft T-Pain

Mirror ft Bruno Mars

So Special ft John Legend

My Last - Big Sean ft Chris Brown

This has been around a while. Chill track nonetheless.

Ocean Drive - Wale ft Magazeen, Tre & Black Cobain

Reggae feel!

Pumped Up Kicks - Foster The People

Otis - Jay-Z & Kanye West ft Otis Redding

The BIGGEST collab album out now! I have not yet heard the full album. I will get back to you with that.

Set Fire To The Rain - Adele

Adele- do I need to say something?

Rain Over Me - Pitbull ft Marc Anthony

Everyone seems to really like this track. Its alright.

Say Yeah - Jay Sean ft Lupe Fiasco

Oliver Twist - D'Banj

Naija music!! :D. This song went mental on Youtube owing to a dance competition set up by the Mo'Hits crew. Mad beats.

Running (1000 Miles) - T-Pain

Very uptempo. "Gimme back my carrrrrrrr!"

No Regrets - Dappy

One of those songs with deep meaning behind the lyrics.

Far Away - Tyga ft Chris Richardson

Nothing Really Matters - David Guetta ft Will.I.Am

Definitely a nice song for a club. Nothing really matters but the beat.

Sunshine - Avicii & David Guetta

Guetta seems bent on breaking the stereotype. Nice collab.

The Way We See The World - Afrojack, Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike & Nervo

Lineup says a lot. Pretty good track.

Some I forgot...And I don't know how..

Stereo Hearts - Gym Class Heroes ft Adam Levine

"If I could only find the note to make you understand..."

Move Like Jagger - Maroon 5 ft Christina Aguilera

Very fun!

Broadway (Original Mix) - Dj Antoine & Mad Mark

Kate - Arty

Arty is taking the dj world by storm!! And he's just 21. Or is it 22? You get the picture!

Headlines - Drake

Sick flow.

Faking Love (Electro Mix) - Albin Myers

This is pretty chill..

In the words of Porky Pig- That's all folks! :P (For real.)

Stay tuned for some mad stuff and more updates on Sunburn.

Keep it real.

Peace

World Music Day! Whattup!

So I know it's been a while. The usual shits been up. Work, exams etc. But of course we couldn't let the holiest of holy days (:P) - World Music Day, go by without any sort of acknowledgement. So here's a mega post with a bunch of tracks I've been listening to lately. Old and new both. I haven't written the usual one liner about every track but that doesn't mean they suck. I can be lazy.

Look at that! The World is dancing! LOL! :P

Promises (Myon & Shane 54 Summer Of Love Remix) - Andain

This has got to be one of my favourite tracks in the genre. There's a remix by Gabriel & Dresden that's awesome too.

Welcome To My Hood (Remix) - Dj Khaled ft T-Pain, Ludacris, Busta Rhymes, Twista, Mavado, Birdman,

Ace Hood, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, Bun B, Game & Waka Flocka Flame

Yes, that is the lineup! Never ending like! Mad track. Busta MURDERS this track in my opinion.

Downpipe (Original Club Mix) - D.Ramirez & Mark Knight vs Underworld

No Sleep, The Race, Roll Up, The Thrill (Walking On A Dream) - Wiz Khalifa

Four separate tracks. As you might guess, Wiz is definitely high on my list of rappers.

Till I'm Gone - Tinie Tempah ft Wiz Khalifa

Mad collab. I wish we heard more of Wiz but still mad track. Tinie Tempah is another mad artist.

Turbulence (Original Mix) - Laidback Luke & Steve Aoki ft Lil Jon

Fairly old but insane party track!!

How To Love - Lil Wayne

You'll have to hear this to believe it. Lil Wayne on a soft rock track.

Man Down - Rihanna

Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO ft GoonRock & Laura Bennett

Don't miss this! They got me shufflin'! :P

I'm Fly - Donae'o

Raise Your Weapon (Madeon Extended Remix) - Deadmau5

Madeon is a 17 yr old DJ from France. Mad props!

I Would (Original Mix) - Dirty Doering

This is bliss!

If I Was You (OMG) - Far East Movement ft Snoop Dogg

Hollllerrrrr!

Wonderfooled (Original Mix) - SHato & Paul Rockseek

I Like Chopin - Joonas Hahmo

Heart Is King (Original Mix) - Axwell

Twitter blew up when Axwell performed this track. Endless tweets. It is definitely that good!

Heart Is My Religion (Blake Jarrell Mashup) - Axwell vs R.E.M.

This works. I like it.

Danza Kuduro - Don Omar ft Lucenzo

Straight off the Fast 5 OST, mad dance track.

Spaceship - Tinchy Stryder ft Dappy

Motherlover - The Lonely Island ft Justin Timberlake

These guys are too funny. Hilarious track.

Superman - Mat Zo

Pure melody. 

Another World (Shogun Remix), Light The Skies (Armin Van Buuren Intro Edit) - Cerf, Mitiska & Jaren

Miz featured a couple of tracks by this group. Here's a couple more. Love Jaren's vocals.

Fuck Food - Tech N9ne ft Lil Wayne & T-Pain

HR 8938 Cephei - Deadmau5

This has been out a while now. Classic Deadmau5. Very reminiscent of Strobe.

Dear Anne (Stan Part 2) - Lil Wayne

Marvin's Room - Drake

Rolling In The Deep - Mike Tompkins

This kid is mad. Be sure to check out the vid on Youtube.

Top Of The World - The Cataracs ft Dev

Pretty sick dance track.

Lifted (Mat Zo Remix) - Tritonal ft Cristina Soto

La-la-la-lifted! ♫♪ d-_-b

I'm Into You - Jennifer Lopez ft Lil Wayne

Right There - Nicole Scherzinger ft 50 Cent

And in the spirit of World Music Day, here are a few songs from Nigeria and India.

Bhaag DK Bose - Delhi Belly

Ainvayi Ainvayi - Band Baaja Baraat

Character Dheela - Ready

Wizparty - Wizkid

Attention - 2-Shotz & Brymo

Mad track.

Joor Oh (Remix) - JahBless  ft Ice Prince, Reminisce, Durella, Ruggedman & eLDee

A major part of this is in Yoruba. But sick track nonetheless.

This college I went to today had like a jam session in their main area for all the students to celebrate. How would you celebrate World Music Day? Here's my small contribution to it. 

On a completely unrelated note, blog walkers piss me off. The shout box is for you guys to post your opinion (which none of you'll do. x/)


Until next time.

Peace
