In Chicago – John Summit
If there’s one thing we know about John Summit, it’s that he likes to have a good time, & his ability to make others have a good time always shines through in his music. On his new track, “In Chicago,” he does what he does best making a dance floor ready house track . With a basic but eloquent vocal and some rolling beats & bass-lines, this track will continue to be heard on big stages around the world now that it’s released to the world.

No Gold Teeth – Danger Mouse & Black Thought
Legendary producer and musician, Danger Mouse, has had an incredible career thus far working with some of the biggest artists in the world including The Black Keys, A$AP Rocky, & Adele.

Their first single from the forthcoming project, “No Gold Teeth,” is a great sign of what’s to come with a funky beat, classic sound, and Black Thought’s always powerful flow.

Nightmares – Chris Lake & Cloonee
The legend himself Chris Lake and bigtime Dj/producer on the rise Cloonee have finally brought us the collab we’ve been waiting for. At the top of the tech house game, these guys smashed it with “Nightmares,” a dark and banging club track with some spooky feels.

Daydreamer – KC Lights & Leo Stannard
It’s that time of year where we’re starting to see lots of summertime anthems, with “Daydreamer” being one of our favorites so far. This one has some really fun vocals and just the right amount of punchy house-feels to make you wanna move while still being an easier-listening dance tune.

PWR – Matroda & Bleu Clair
Matroda has been around for a while, with some standout productions coming out as of late. “PWR” is a solid club track that checks all of the boxes without going overboard. Give this one a listen at your next dance party or to get you through your next workout!

We’re going to be listening to this one on repeat for a whiiile.

Album Dropout Boogie – The Black Keys
Rock duo, The Black Keys, have delivered their 11th studio album Dropout Boogie following last years release of Delta Kream.
