Death To The Throne‘s new remix of Lykke Li’s “Paris Blue” is a refreshing tune for the soul.  Death To The Throne dances on a tightrope from soothing to smashing – you never really know where the progression is going to take you.  Give these tracks a listen –

Sam La More is back. Ian Carey strikes again. Keljet is on a heater. As 2010 is winding down, I’m heaaaating up. With NYE fast approaching it’s time to start creating that pre-game playlist that is going to catapult you into 2011 a champion. Here are the game-changers. These tracks are like performance enhancing drugs.

Sam La More wandering what order to put the songs on this post into his next DJ set

Sam La More is a champion. We’ve established this before.  He’s BACK and his sound (at least for these two tracks) has evolved.  Instead of the long progressive build-ups that we’ve all grown to know and love – he’s gotten more aggressive – dropping you right into the action early and unrelentingly.  He still has those iconic loops that force you to get funky.  In his remix of ‘Way Back Home’, it takes only a minute, after some beautiful lyrical prose, for Sam La More to drop you into the heart of action – forcing you to b-line to a dance floor near you.  Evacuate the dance floor?  Not this time.

Miami Horror – Moon Theory (Sam La More Remix)

Bag Raiders – Way Back Home (Sam La More Remix)

Ian Carey setting something on fire

Ian Carey is here to spice up a song we’ve all accepted into our lives.  Carey’s remix of Afrojack’s ‘Take Over Control” brings a nice new flavor to an already fuego track.

So just give it a listen.  #win.

Afrojack ft. Eva Simons – Take Over Control (Ian Carey Remix)

Keljet is a two-man wolf pack

Keljet is KILLING it.  The dutch duo falls under the electro-indie genre, fusing authentic sounds, intricate beat structures, and some synthetic flair to create a really unique vibe.  The Dutch are doing something right over there – because it seems like of the 16 million people that reside within the countries borders, 8 million of them are creating crush-worthy dance tracks while the other 8 are in a lab somewhere just waiting for their sound to be heard.  Well right now it’s Keljet’s turn.  Jump on this train.  It’s going to a dance floor near you.

Adele – Rolling In The Deep (Keljet Remix)

Passion Pit – Fold Your Hands (Keljet Remix)

Scissor Sisters – Any Which Way (Keljet Remix)

Mike Posner – 31 Minutes To Takeoff (Keljet Remix)

Temper Trap – Love Lost (Keljet Remix)

The xx – Crystalised (Keljet Remix)

Merry Crushing & A Happy New Year.

For the past couple of years Eminem has been quiet but he’s sounding good on a new mash up from The White Panda. Of course Lil Wayne is doing work as usual, a long with Ke$ha, Lady Gaga. We wanted to also mix it up with a couple of new comers. Check out Flipsyde, Little Boots, The XX, and Shwayze.

In case you forgot you can always send us recommendations via facebook or @silverlake2soho on twitter.

2009 was definitely the year of Gaga but we threw in a pretty chill remix of telephone featuring Beyonce. 2010 is probably going to be the year of Drake, and a nice send off for weezy. Most of this playlist was inspired by the Yacht Week 2010 video, which we’ll throw in at the end of the post incase you haven’t seen it already.

We also had to throw in more from Atypicals, which are back by popular demand. We should also mention our good buddy VC (@GoVince) is going to help out sourcing new music!

In the spirit of the groups headed out to Vegas, Ultra in Miami and back to Cabo for an extra round of work, here’s a dedicated playlist to rock out. We got a bunch of great recommendations from The house of Cmar, VC, Ms Seegal and my good old bud V.Ravi

In case you forgot you can always send us recommendations via facebook or @silverlake2soho on twitter.

This week we’re mixing a bunch of old favorites and user recommendations from our friends at Michigan and Duke.
Check out the Atypicals, most of you have probably heard of Mike Posner by now.

In the spirit of the olympics we had to throw in the track from the XX and Sia.

Thanks to VCrumrine, AStern and MPembs for the other recommendations this week.
