Brando – Big Easy (feat. G-Eazy)

2012-05-25T17:03:00.002-04:00

Apologies for the delay on the updates, but I think this track alone will make up for that. On this gem, G-Eazy teams up with Brando (don't know much about him), and together they spit some great verses on a banging old school beat. Always a treat hearing something new from G-Eazy, preview below and Read More for the download. Enjoy..

Some tasty music for your Friday evening. I'm excited to hear more from G-Eazy and Brando as well, but until then snag this tune from the player above.

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues

2012-05-23T13:50:00.001-04:00

Now I know you all must be as excited as I am, so I felt the need to post this up on Lucid. When you actually laugh during a movie trailer, you know it will be worth how ever much movies cost these days. It won't be out for another year, so don't cream to hard. Enjoy..

The Electric Sons - Kyoto

2012-05-23T01:01:00.000-04:00

This was the first track I ever heard from the Atlanta duo known as The Electric Sons and I became instantly hooked. They have a real indie electronic sound and will leave you as a fan after your first listen. The duo consists of guitarist/vocalist, Andrew Miller, and keyboardist/vocalist, Ben Richards. Remember their names because I can assure you they will be rocking the electronic scene for years to come. Preview below and Read More for the download. Enjoy..

"Kyoto"

If you enjoy this track be sure to check out their EP here, they're offering it for free, so you're crazy not to.

Sol – Be Good Or Be Careful

2012-05-22T08:24:00.001-04:00

It's safe to say that Sol is one of my favorite up and coming rappers, and this track right here shows me why. "Be Good Or Be Careful" was produced by Nima Skeemz, who is the producer behind the well known tracks by Sol, "2020″ and "Stage Dive". As Sol prepares for his year long international journey, he was kind enough to drop off this latest single off of his newest project - Farewell Sol. Preview below and Read More for the download. Enjoy..

"Be Good Or Be Careful"

Don't fret, more music by Sol will be coming soon with the release of his new EP, so until then enjoy what we have so far. As always the lyricism and flow by Sol is on par, but I don't even need to say it, it's obvious after you listen to any of his tracks. Show some loving to Sol through the links below and snag the DL from the player above. Enjoy.

Wolfgang Gartner - Redline (Paradigm Remix)

2012-05-21T03:26:00.000-04:00

Holy tits, as if the original progressive house track by Wolfgang Gartner - "Redline" wasn't good enough, we are now graced with this amazing new remix by Paradigm. If you're a fan of the wobbles, you might just jizz yourself on this one. Paradigm takes "Redline" to another level by adding some hard hitting dubstep and the result is fresh as fuck. Peep the preview below and download after the jump. Enjoy..

[Download link]

In my personal opinion, this is the best track by Paradigm, and after hearing this track I think it's very clear that his name will start popping up quite frequently in the dubstep genre. A great track overall and a must download, but why wouldn't you? It's fire and free, so get on that shit. Enjoy and snag the remix from the link above. Also, don't forget to show some love to Paradigm through the links below.

Matrix & Futurebound - All I Know (feat. Luke Bingham) (Seven Lions Mix)

2012-05-19T14:46:00.000-04:00

I'm not the biggest fan of posting music that isn't available for free download, but when the track is as good as this one it needs to be up on Lucid. If you don't remember Seven Lions from the "Cosmic Love" remix you need to check that one out to fully appreciate his work. Seven Lions is clearly on his way up to becoming one of the best dubstep producers in the game right now, and his previous works along with this one are really proving that. If you enjoy this track as much as I do, be sure to purchase it off of Beatport and show some support to this amazing young producer. Read More for the purchase link.

Seven Lions has an ear for infusing sounds that will literally just blow your mind, and that's what I love about this producer. This latest remix is just another to add to his growing legacy and I assure you, you will not be disappointed. "All I Know" is well worth the $1.00 it costs, but I don't need to reiterate that, I'm sure you all already know. Enjoy.

Tha Trickaz feat. Non Genetic - Kill It Fuck It

2012-05-19T14:12:00.000-04:00

It's been a while since Tha Trickaz has been up on Lucid, but here they are now with their latest release infusing some heavy dubstep and some gritty hip hop. Tha Trickaz are one of my favorite dubstep production groups, mainly because their sound is so raw and you can pretty much tell when it's their work. This track is not for the faint of heart, so be aware, it might just blow your bass. Enjoy and Read More for the DL link.

[Download link]

Blast this track and let it melt your fucking face off. Tha Trickaz continue their reputation of banging ass dubstep remixes with this one, so don't skip out on it and make sure you add this one to your music library. Some heavy shit, but don't say you weren't warned. Enjoy.

Featurecast - My Thing

2012-05-18T21:02:00.001-04:00

"My Thing" is part of Featurecast’s DJ set, which are called "Party Bombs", and was released in an effort to promote his forthcoming album titled - Run for Cover. Sounds like this track alone will build up enough hype for that. Preview below and Read More for the download. Enjoy..

2012-05-17T14:13:00.000-04:00

As I was doing my usual stumbling of music, I noticed the title of this track and thought it was worth the listen. Seems like I picked a great title because this track ended up being well worth the listen. Sam Sparro is an Australian music producer signed with the British record label - Island Records, and is on set to release his forthcoming album of which will contain this funky new remix.

Any song that you can relate to is enjoyable, as long as if is good of course, but for the most part if you can relate to it your probably enjoying it and therefore it is good.

For all those out there that wish you never met someone, let this track speak for you. Enjoy and snag the download from the link above.

Brenton Duvall releases yet another impressive track that needs to be added to your music collection.

Here is what Brenton Duvall had to say about the track:

“One day early this year, B-Roc of the Knocks suggested I remix their power funk sex magic song “All We Got,” off the Knocks’ Magic EP. It was my favorite song of the release. Then once it got all slow and ambient and sexy and blunty I enlisted the help of mystery geniuses One Room, comprised of Samuel and Chris P. So roll down a window and cruise to this….more soon. Futuristic shyt, bow.”

ricky! said something on his soundcloud that made me chuckle, he said: "I don't have a facebook fan page because that implies I make music for my fans. I don't. I make music for me." I respect that, he is making music for the love of it, not because he wants to be known. This is an enjoyable mashup that can be played over and over. Don't miss out on this one and snag the download above.

Beau Young Prince – Dream Catcher (Mixtape)

2012-05-15T02:47:00.001-04:00

Solid 6 track mixtape put together by DMV artist, Beau Young Prince. The tape is short and sweet with features from Huey Mack, and production from Action Jackson, Brenton Duvall, and more.

Beach House - Bloom Album Stream

2012-05-14T12:20:00.000-04:00

Beach House releases their fourth album, Bloom, on May 15th and if you haven't pre-ordered it on iTunes then I'm not entirely sure what you're doing. Duo, Victoria Legrand (vocals, organ) and Alex Scally (guitar, keyboard), have produced a new set of tracks that are silky smooth in their simplicity. The lyrics are nothing too complex or melodramatic, but their classicality is something that can be appreciated nonetheless (preferably on a beach, with headphones in to blare out all the noises of loquacious tourists who may be getting in the way of your summer romance with Miami's sand).

While there are no free downloads available, NPR has been kind enough to stream the entire album prior to the release. Take a music break from your tedious summer job and reward your senses with some of the best music the dream pop genre has to offer.
