5. Kill It – Kayzo
Kayzo – Facebook | SoundCloud
Seeing Kayzo’s overall style morph into what it is today has been a journey. His chaotic, 160+ bpm tracks have definitely grown on me. His newest EP, “Black & White” is an excellent representation of his style. My favorite track is “Kill It” which is chalk full of vocal chops, bass and awesome sound design. Check it out!
4. After All (feat. Jinzo) – SLANDER x YOOKiE
SLANDER – Facebook | SoundCloud || YOOKiE – Facebook | SoundCloud || JINZO – Facebook | SoundCloud
This song has been constant rotation for me since it has come out. It’s absolutely wild and brings the talents of SLANDER, YOOKiE and Jinzo together. From Jinzo’s melodic vocals at the beginning to the insane drop is a track like you’ve never heard before!

3. In My Head (feat. PRXZM) – Virtual Riot
Virtual Riot – Facebook | SoundCloud || PRXZM – Facebook | SoundCloud
What really won me over about this song is Emma from PRXZM’s beautiful vocals. She sounds extremely angelic on here and it really sells the song. Aside from that is Virtual Riot’s simple, yet very effective and catchy production. This is one of those songs that instantly get stuck in your head!
2. Mais Que Nada – Potions & Pills
Potions & Pills – Facebook | SoundCloud
I just randomly stumbled across this song on SoundCloud and was instantly hooked. Upon further investigation, it seems that Potions & Pills only have about 2,000 SoundCloud followers and are relatively unknown. They really do know how to make some catchy deep house though. Be on the lookout for these guys, I’m sure they will be big soon!
1. Save The World (Crankdat Re-Crank) – Swedish House Mafia
Crankdat – Facebook | SoundCloud
It’s a bold move to remix a classic like “Save the World” by Swedish House Mafia, but 19-year-old producer, Crankdat took it upon himself. The result was a super groovy house tune that is a breath of fresh air from the original.
