Bunk in the Trunk

It’s amazing how after almost a year “Reload” still goes off in the clubs.  Call it the “Calling” of 2012.  Kaskade has released his “Eyes Reloaded” mashup as part of Kaskade Mashup Monday.  We’ve heard it in his live sets, so here’s the official version for download.

We had the pleasure of seeing Michael Woods about eight months ago, and we can personally attest to the fact that he puts on a great show. We weren’t surprised when we first heard his newest track, ‘Clanga’, which stays true to his heavy-hitting style. The track builds for what feels like an eternity before unloading a huge drop on listeners, driven by a choppy-synth that addictively bounces in and out of the track.

Have a listen and grab this one from Beatport!

This is one of those tracks that falls under a number of categories, leaving us unable to solidly classify it by genre. ‘The Sun’ evokes trance-like feelings with its addictive and distorted vocals, but then eventually unleashes a massive progressive drop on its listeners. Picture this on a set of club speakers and you’ll probably lose it – wonderful genre-blending work from two very talented artists. Have a listen and grab this from Beatport today!

Our first experience with this track was on Eric Prydz’s Epic Radio podcast, immediately followed by its feature in his recent Essential Mix, and we’re thrilled to see it has finally arrived. This track is extremely soothing and begs the listener to hum along with its addictive bass-line. Another instant classic from one of our favorite artists in Eric Prydz; you can grab this from Beatport here!

Hardwell’s newest release is out on Toolroom Records! This track is a wonderful way to open a progressive set, and it has now been mashed up with the very distinct ‘Losing My Religion’ vocal that everyone can instantly recognize. This is an awesome way to rejuvenate this track. Grab it from Beatport here.

Avicii haters rejoice, because we have the premiere of Avicii’s controversial track “Wake Me Up.”  The Swedish star premiered the track alongside a slew of other with a live performance at ultra in March.  It was met with a lot of hate with people claiming Avicii has lost his bananas and is a country act now.  At Bunk we aren’t as brash, we actually enjoy the tune. It’s nice to see EDM artists breaking out of the mould and it’s awesome to see Avicii evolve as a producer.  We don’t all go hating on Zedd when he produces for J-Beibz and Lady Gaga.  Can’t wait for the full album. Should we add a folk/country category?
