Anyone have recommendations for house paired with R&B/soulful vocals like T.Williams - Think of You or Voices by Disclosure?

I have a lot already, but I'm looking for more, particularly more recent deep house like that.

Try Kaytranada's remixes:

Ah yeah, thanks. I've been listening to this DJ recently as well. I particularly love the remix of Snakehip's On and On. Any recommendations with original lyrics and not remixes?

Just came here to say that I've always known of Pretty Lights and known that he has a cultlike following. He has a pretty awesome radio show on Electric Area as well.

I recently listened to his new album, and watched his documentary on the production of it. By god, this dude really is a genius. I've been so sucked into mainstream EDM recently that I seemed to forget that there can still be creativity in this area of music.

Good poo poo, Pretty Lights.

Absolutely. I was aware of Pretty Lights before this album, but I'd never really heard anything he'd done. But A Color Map Of The Sun is loving incredible. Probably one of my favorite albums of the year already. It came out on July 2nd, my birthday, and I listened to it all the way through like 3 times that day.

If you haven't watched the documentary for it, definitely check it out. He does a great job of showing the listeners a diverse use of sounds in the album, but when you actually get to see what really went into it it's astounding. He also somehow finds the most unique vocalists for all of his background vocals.

I hadn't seen it but I'd been meaning to. Watching it now, and it really makes me appreciate the album even more. This album's like Squarepusher meets Amon Tobin meets Bonobo.

God, now I need to listen to it again immediately.

e: Oh poo poo, he recorded part of it here in New Orleans with a brass band! Awesome!!

Glad people here are digging it! PL has always been great, vibey music to chill and smoke blunts to ,but color map really is phenomenal in the way he went about it. Saw him drop a bunch of songs from it at Electric Forest and got home in time to order a physical copy and everything. Awesome produce and amazing album.

I'm going to see Andrew Wyatt of Miike Snow perform a DJ set at Mezzanine in SF this Friday and I was wondering if anyone had seen him DJ before. I haven't been able to find a good example of one of his DJ sets and am curious what to expect. If anyone has some clips they could share, that would be great. Youtube seems to only have stuff from years ago that is horrible quality.

Haven't seen this posted yet but deadmau5 uploaded a new track on his soundcloud which I think is amazing. I know there are a lot of mixed feelings about him on this forum but figured there were at least a few people who would appreciate the track. He has also been sharing some more downtempo stuff which is pretty awesome.

Synthpop is a pretty massive genre with lots of artists who aren't in that list. Are you looking for more stuff like you posted, or any synthpop in general?

Anyway, I'll plug my blog, which isn't super special but I try to keep it pretty focused on only "the really good" stuff:

I don't know how the gently caress I missed this guy. Other than ignoring my reader because 1000+ posts is less than exciting.

Five months ago FKJ (French Kiwi Juice) put out a mean rear end track called So Much To Me. The production is so sexy and precise. I'm a sucker for warped vocal samples and he definitely delivers the goods here.

FKJ - So Much To Me


Just a couple weeks ago he put out what may be my favorite EP this year. The Time For A Change EP is nothing short of splendiferous on all fronts. It's the best of the chilled house I've heard in a long time. I'm actually gitty over this poo poo. I recommend this EP to anyone who likes anything.

FKJ - Instant Need

FKJ - Unchained

FKJ - Between Moods


Another competitor for favorite this year is the Family Function EP by MyCousinVinny and Daims.

MyCousinVinny & Daims - SueWho

The Feadz remix of Moveltlife, Maya Jane Coles' remix of So High and the Tagteam Terror remix are all very good. Big Dope P's original mixes are Big Dope P as hell, and include a pretty pro sample of The Percolator. So High is sweet as hell. Its a good EP if you ask me.

Speaking of Tagteam I really liked TPR's random "Hidden Nonsense" on their Kimble EP. Actual remix is rowdy as per usual.
