The Hype:

What’s better than listening to brand new, unreleased House Music under the sun, poolside or in a dark, boomin’ nightclub during WMC while thousands of sweaty bodies writhe & bounce in unison to the same rhythm? Not much, but we will say that adding of few of these tunes into the mix will make the dance that much more delish. Presenting an even 30 tracks in the latest installment of Miami 2013. Here’s you’ll find jam after head-nodding-booty-shakin’ jam, full of the deep deep deep like Joeski & Audio KoDe‘s In My House Remix of Supernova “Last Night in NY,” Mihalis Safras WMC Remix of Doomwork‘s “This!,” John Rivera‘s “Believe In Me” (Demarkus Lewis Main Remix), and the Balcazar & Sordo Remix of Sunshine Jones‘ “We Are What We Are” to the pumpy-er and unreleased looped up Queer Baby” (Dub) by Angelo Ferreri, Will Crawshaw & Luke Pompey‘s “Jack City,” “New York” by T. Tommy & Vicente Belenguer, Joeski & Audio KoDe‘s “Potential of The Soul,” and Fabian Argomedo‘s “The Truth,” and others. And what King St comp would ever be truly complete without a few legends like Barbara Tucker (& her new collab with japanese producer Namy, “I Cant’ Wait” with Vocal mix by ATFC), Josh Milan (who also collab’ed with Namy, “From Now On” with dope mix by DJ Spen & N’Dinga Gaba) and a Superb unreleased debut song by French producer DJ Yass and his collab with Inaya Day “Bring It Up,” and many more! We’re thankful WMC has now been extended to 10 days, and with 30 songs and their extended mixes, including 2 continuous mixes by DJ/percussionist The WIG this comp will keep ur floor filled for a good long time.

The Hype
US House Producer John Rivera slings pumpin beats, native percuassion and deep groovy baselines on his debut Nite Grooves ‘Believe In Me’ EP. The EP’s first cut & namesake is a great opener with 2 groovy remixes by Demarkus Lewis, and rest of the tracks are utterly diverse from what you’d expect. Up out of the blue comes “Noche De Carnival,” whose original puts you smack dab in the middle of the fantastic frenetic festival in Rio looped out affair toned-down and loopy-grooved out by Surrealism’s Summer Rain Remix, as heard on Street King’s recent After Hours comp. Others featured on previous comps were the wicked rhythm of “Love” Dirty Filth Original Mix featured on House of Ibiza, and the tribal loopy “Selene” featured on the recent Miami 2012 comp. Catch these; they wont disappoint.

Then there are bigger room tunes like JJ Mullor’s “Tribetika,” “Seven” by M2, “The Power of Love” by Samuele Busselli, the darker & techier YouzarsiF & Franko Ovalles’ “Dinasty,” deep techie goodness of Elay Lazutkin “Together,” and Richard Malcoh’s “Buildings & Love Part 1,” the vocal banger by Adhe Bachtiar Feat Rudi Silva “Follow Me,” the heady “Revo” by kny & Holly and finally an elektro-vocal track by “Lexvaz & JJ Mullor” Love Thing that’ll have ur head flying and feet spinning in the sand.
