Got a favorite genre of music or just a favorite playlist or song?
Drop some recommendations down below for me and others to listen to. You may even help someone find their new favorite song!
Ohhhhh dude, if you’re not in the know, Madeon just dropped his new album Good Faith, it’s really really worth a listen if you’re slightly into Pop or Electronic. It’s really an album he’s wanted to make for a long time, as it’s made entirely by him for him, it’s music he’s wanted to make, not something a producer wanted him to make. Got lots of help from his friend Porter Robinson on it too, if you’re into him.
If you just skipped that paragraph just listen to it. It’s good. That’s all I’m trying to say.
My favorites out of this album would be All My Friends, Nirvana, and Heavy With Hoping
Over the last couple of years I’ve really been getting back into house music that heavily samples disco music, as it is really remeniscent of my youth. I didn’t care much about it back then, but I remember hearing it on the radio a lot. Now I’m completely into it. I also really like to just listen to the disco music that the tracks sample from.
A couple of examples:
Whosampled.com is a great resource for finding the samples used in music. It almost never fails me.
Luckily for me, the genre of disco house isn’t dead, with record labels like Defected churning out new stuff under their Glitterbox and Classic Music Company sub-labels, such as Soul Reductions - Got 2 be loved and Loods - Love (if someone could help me find the sample used in this track, I would be much obliged! - Edit: found it. ).
The aforementioned sub-labels also put out radio shows on their YouTube channels. Most notably Glitterbox, which hosts a weekly radio show where disco house is mixed with classic disco music. It’s probably my favourite source of music.
This song more so, which I’m censoring initially to warn people that the video is pretty disturbing, but I really love it. So don’t watch it if easily disturbed.
