Ariana Grande - Break Free

Zedd takes Ariana to the next level, with some skyscraping synths that would make Kylie Minogue jelly. Yo, this track bangs. The type of tunage that bring me back to my Ministry of Sound days. If you're looking to get mad #wigglyInDaclub this is for you:

Summer Camp - Fresh

Long have I been in the Summer Camp camp, knowing the Londoners were capable of producing another strong single, after those first few mysterious tracks they released a few years back. Welcome to Condale, their first proper LP was a significant step above the production level of their early material, yet unfortunately it was a complete misstep. The songs were still licked with a familiar 80s-pop sheen, but they lacked the warmth and ear pricking quality one experiences when hearing something new and interesting for the first time, that you could find on something like Ghost Train. Fittingly titled, Fresh, has a reinvigorated sound, that sheds the group's drab dabbling into plasticized pop production, and returns them to more a original tonality. Laying on a heavily orchestrated string sample, Summer Camp have created their first true dance single, with an excellent combo of their usual echo-y vocal cooing and a joltingly funky bass-line (reminiscent of Tango In the Night-era Fleetwood Mac). This is easily one of the best songs of this summer, and one of those wonderful Indie-pop gems that you won't soon forget.

Holy Ghost! - Teenagers In Heat

If ever there was a song(and band) that was biting a tremendous chunk out of New Order (in the best possible way!) its Holy Ghost!. Currently the BK duo are plowing through a a string of US tour dates supporting New Order, (and they'll both be rockin the park in Williamsburg next week wutttupppppp!!!). Later in the summer we'll be treated to HG's new LP, but until then here's a new single! No doubt, you've already heard this song on the most recent mixtape from CitiesInDust , but I was bumpin this jam this morning and felt the need to throw it up as well. This is one of the poppiest songs the group has yet released, and really it feels so right. So plug those earbuds in, bud..cuz really we're all just teenagers at heart...and right now in the heat, too!

The Scent of Summer (a mix of warm weather club bangers) by Latest Bigfoot Sightings

I took last week off to contemplate the 150th anniversary of The Battle of Gettysburg. But this week I'd like to welcome everyone back into my fold, with a brand spankin new collection of steamy Summertime songs. Its a mix of music I've thought long and hard about and it may in fact be the first and last collection of tunes I ever compile. So get it while its hot. There should be something in here for everyone, even you.

Bedlam's Offspring - I'll Be There

60's teenage, garage-dwellers. This song makes me dream of summertime steam and the bubbling tar of a blacktop roof, getting soft in the afternoon.

Glass Candy - Beautiful Object

Dude, this video is sick. Glass Candy really make rockin' in the lab look like the coolest/funnest/sweetest thing you could ever do. Most of us are well aware that in the real world studio time can be an arduous, painstaking process of grooming through finite details and stressing about money, and time, and vocal effects processors, and how to get those drums to sound like Steely Dan. WTF, ITS IMPOSSIBLE. But here we find a bubbly Ida No, dancin' and chirpin' on the mic like a little discafied bird, enjoying the pleasures of a backyard birdbath. Johnny Jewel is here too, smashing keys and taking that pad to Drum Town. Its good times all around, and the camera light flares just add to the glitz and timeless feel of the entire clip. BTW After Dark 2 just dropped and if you're not a complete idiot you'll go get it right now. Idano if Italians actually do do it better, but they sure know how to make some juicy, pineapple sized, boogie-woogie, get-downs.

Classixx - Valley Vacation

Picture yourself at the pool. Its early summer and its still a little too chilly to just jump in. You dip in a foot, test it with your hand, dance around the edge.. Until someone dares you to "just jump, you big sissy!" That's what this slippery new number from Classixx is all about. The LA hoedown mixmasters are back this summer, with a whole new batch of butter churning, good-times tunage. If you can't get down with this one then someone needs to buy you a Q-tip, bro.

Daft Punk ft. Panda Bear - Doin' It Right (The Golden Pony Remix)

The Golden Pony reminds us that sometimes all you need for a dope remix is hard ass drums and MONDO drops! Here's the first of probably a billion summer remixes that will come out of Daft Punk's new bizzaro futuristic retro disco opus. LET THE BEAT DROP!!!
