Song of the Day: Gold (Stupid Love) – Illenium & Excision

Song of the Day: Gold (Stupid Love) – Illenium & Excision

The new Illenium and Excision collaboration just dropped this morning and it is some of what the best the two artists have to offer. Featuring vocals from Shallows, “Gold (Stupid Love)” starts with a dark guitar riff, typical of Illenium. Moving into the melodic dubstep sounds that both Illenium and Excision are known for, the song explodes in depth and power. In songs like this, the vocals are generally meant to accentuate the melody and drums, and that’s what we have here. The secondary drop seems to have more of an Excision influence with how gritty it is. It’s incredibly fun to hear these two artists play off of each other’s strengths so well. The hype around this song’s release was clearly justified.

For more Illenium, check out “Fractures” and “Lost”.

Song of the Day: Butterflies – Myon

Song of the Day: Butterflies – Myon

“Butterflies”, Myon’s newest release featuring vocals from Jenn Blosil, is typical of his sound; uplifting, bright, and emotional. Myon usually teams up with partner Shane 54 to form Myon & Shane 54 (creative team name right?) and they have put out countless, beautiful progressive house tracks over the years. Separately though, they are just as talented as shown by Myon’s work in “Butterflies”. Enjoy this one!

Song of the Day: Long Way Home (Noah Neiman vs Culture Code Remix) – Noah Neiman X Jay Bombay ft. Laci Kay

Song of the Day: Long Way Home (Noah Neiman vs Culture Code Remix) – Noah Neiman X Jay Bombay ft. Laci Kay

Noah Neiman and Culture Code teamed up to remix Noah’s original track “Long Way Home” that was created with Jay Bombay with a vocal feature from Laci Kay. It doesn’t stray too far stylistically from the original but adds a nice bounce to it that the original seemed to be missing. Take a listen and check out the lyrics below!

Looking for lightning, trying to spark that rush
We’ll keep on driving, but we’ll take it slow
Leaving behind us is the cloud of dust
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home
Oh…oh…
Taking turns until we’re on our own
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home

Where should we go?
‘Cause I got time
Never know, what I’ll find
On the road, without even trying
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home
I’ll take the long way home

My heart is racing every time we touch
Oh, we’ll be tracing out the skies of gold
I’ll go the distance ’cause we’re enough
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home
We’ll take the long way home
We’ll take the long way home
We’ll take the long way home

Where should we go?
‘Cause I got time
Never know, what I’ll find
On the road, without even trying
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home

Taking turns until we’re on our own
When I’m with you, I’ll take the long way home

Song of the Day: Love On Me (CID Remix) – Galantis & Hook N Sling

Song of the Day: Love On Me (CID Remix) – Galantis & Hook N Sling

CID remixed the collaboration between Galantis and Hook N Sling “Love On Me” back in 2016 but it’s such a catchy, upbeat tune that we wanted to make sure you’ve heard it. It’s bouncy chorus synths are perfect for when you’re relaxing by the pool or by the beach/lake this summer.

As a side note, if you ever get the opportunity to see Galantis live, definitely see them. As far as live sets go, they put on an amazing show and put everyone in the crowd in a great mood by the end of it.
