Luca Lush - Promise

The New York-based Luca Lush already proved himself as a talented producer on the bassier side of electronic dance music. This time he decided to treat us with a stunning future house/deep house genre melting free track, titled "Promise". Being both banging and mellow this one will be a perfect transition track if you want to spice up your sets with something really unique.

No wonder, I'll play this a lot and hopefully you will as well, since it is a free download. Grab it and show some love to the artist!

Budapest Calling pres. David K Birthday Party: 5 essential tracks

This brand new segment will showcase five essential tracks that you need to know before heading out to a party. The first selection features the next Budapest Calling night which promises to be a memorable one: not only David K celebrating his birthday in our hometown but he also invited his friends, Tom B and Compact Grey to join him in the festivities! This is going to be one hell of a b3b set I think!

So, let's kick off the warmup with these stunning deep house gems.

TIESTO FEAT. DBX - LIGHT YEARS AWAY (DAVID K REMIX)
Yes, you've read it right: David recently remixed the one and only Tiesto and the result is excellent! I think it perfectly illustrates the talent of David to stick with his trademark sound while remixing a track from a totally different genre. Though I'm not sure whether he will play this remix on Friday, I bet you would like to check it out!

TOM B - FRIEDENSTRASSE
Tom's latest release on the "soon-to-be-really-huge" German imprint Dusted Decks is a superb club tool which is also complimented by a Teenage Mutants remix. Just play any of the two and you will get a sweet taste of why German deep house is considered to be the best around the world right now!


VIJAY & SOFIA ZLATKO - LE JARDIN (COMPACT GREY & JULIAN WASSERMANN REMIX)
Mirko aka Compact Grey will definately bring his pumping sound to the house on Friday and I think this brand new remix won't be missing either! No warmup material here, just pure peaktime madness!


INDIGO THEORY - NEVER & ALWAYS
Let's not forget about Indigo Theory! The Hungarian formation won the Budapest Calling DJ Contest last December and is now responsible for the tasty warmup of this Friday's party - and this pearl won't be missing from their set, I'm sure!


DAVID K - MEET YOU (THOMAS LIZZARA REMIX)
Let's say that this is the "unofficial" Budapest Calling anthem...yes, you want to take another listen, it's gorgeous!

Budapest Bonkers Top 100 of 2014: 10-1

Hi everyone! For the second time after 2013, the countdown of the best tunes of the year was up and running. Though I am heavily late, it is time to wrap up the best tracks from last year!

It has been an outstanding year, we saw new genres rise such as deep house and future house, we saw new superstars born such as Oliver Heldens, Tchami or Kygo and we have enjoyed tons of great music all year long. Let's rerun the best tracks from 2014 on this heavily biased list!

10. PHARRELL WILLIAMS X DAFT PUNK - GUST OF WIND (URBAN CONTACT & FARLEON REMIX)
First, I thought that this is going to be the "Get Lucky" of 2014, however it is way better while the duo of Urban Contact and Farleon managed to take it to even higher levels by adding a serious bassline and some super funky elements.



09. SIGMA FEAT. PALOMA FAITH - CHANGING (MAJESTIC REMIX)
Sigma became true superstars in 2014, though it is Majestic's own majestic touch that turned the drum & bass original into an epic nudisco floorfiller.



08. ZHU - FADED
We saw the birth of a new superstar with this track.



07. HIGHER SELF FEAT. LAUREN MASON - GHOST
Future house was one of the most popular new genre definition with Higher Self being one of the best at it. Well deserved top 10 finish!


06. KANT VS. MK - EY YO
I saw so many dancefloors just exploding to this track. KANT is also one of the strong candidates for the producer of the year title.



05. HOT NATURED - BENEDICTION (LXURY REMIX)
I could not imagine that there will be any better versions than the epic original. Luckily, Lxury could imagine. The result speaks for itself.



04. MOTEZ - PROMISE ME (ALEX BRANDT RE-EDIT)
The original would purely made the top 10 but Alex Brandt's saxy sounds rocketed this one to so many of my summer sets.



03. DUSKY - YOOHOO
If it wasn't released in November this could be even higher! Stunning production, I can't resist to play it in nearly every set!



02. BLONDE FEAT. MELISSA STEEL - I LOVED YOU
This is totally personal but you must know that feeling when you hear a track for the first time and you think "WHAT IS THIS? I NEED THIS!". Perfect vocals, perfect balancing between house and indie dance. Exactly what I'm looking for!



01. EELKE KLEIJN - MISTAKES I'VE MADE
I think the biggest story in electronic dance music in 2014 was the rise of deep house and any alternates referring to the genre. This track totally stand out for me, both for musical and personal reasons so before I started compiling the list I already knew that this one will finish as the top choice.

James Grow - Riki EP

Started out as an underground party series a few years ago, and now being one of the trademark names in the Budapest nightlife, Hi!Fly Music showcases yet another stellar release. Though it is only the fourth release on the label, we can already call it the home of Hungarian talent in the deep house scene. Following EPs from already established acts, like Snilloc and Yvel & Tristan, it is time for James Grow to debut two really nice original tracks on the label.

James has played numerous clubs and festivals around Hungary, and production-wise had releases on Itom Records earlier. Being one of the resident DJs on Hi!Fly events, he tries to capture the atmosphere of these nights with these two peak-time dancefloor masters, both of them equipped with nasty basslines and gorgeous drops.

You better check out the previews and get ready as the release date is set for 10th February 2015.

Mickey - You Know The Beat

Mickey starts out 2015 with yet another great anthem. "You Know The Beat" is a mixup of 90es French house combined with a classic old school American house vibe. Just think Cassius meets Todd Terry.

The deep house scene saw Mickey as a newcomer, growing on the label Exploited Records. His releases "Sweet Baby", "Holding Hands" and "Walk Away" are topping the Exploited bestsellers of 2014. Especially "Sweet Baby" which was among the top 10 best selling deep house tracks on Beatport. Next to his Belgian residency at the infamous Libertine Supersport nights, he travels all over the world to rock the crowd with his energetic DJ sets.

He just finished a remix for Modular Records stars Bag Raiders and is currently in London working on his next single.

So, taste the brand new single „You Know The Beat”, and if you like you can already pre-order it on iTunes at http://bit.ly/YouKnowTheBeat

Release date is set for 26 January 2015.

LoveStyle Records release new compilation

Hungarian deep house and nudisco powerhouse LoveStyle Records kicked off the new year in style by releasing the first installation of a brand new compilation series titled "Lost Tapes". Lost Tapes will occasionally feature unreleased gems by some of the premier up and coming talents in the deep house sphere.

The first compilation feature some decent warm up tracks by Brazilian house hero Alternative Kasual who is already featured on Beachside Records earlier and Toulouse-based newcomer Juloboy. On the peak time side, the compo got some intriguing bassline from Italian prodigy Rockaforte and Rio de Janeiro's own Ramon Kreisler. I have to admit that my absolute favorite in the package is coming from the Croatian-Greek duo of Echodust in the form of "D.U.S.T." which is a proper future house monster.

Be sure to check out the compilation and in the process, throw some likes to LoveStyle Records  and buy the tracks you like as well.

Eric Prydz & Jeremy Olander - Essential Mix (2015-01-03)

Even though the year 2015 has just started, BBC Radio 1 already offered us a mammoth Essential Mix. In the first episode of the new year, we saw the two Swedish superstars, Eric Prydz and Jeremy Olander going back to back. Sharing the turntables is nothing new to the guys as they did the same many times during the EPIC 3.0 tour of Eric.

As it was expected from the master and his protege, the 2-hour journey featured some slick techno and melodic progressive house pieces, loads of new and unheard material with most of them will be released sooner or later on Eric's very own Pryda Recordings (as it is expected).

There are still nearly 50 Essential Mixes to go this year, I bet that this one is a strong contender for Essential Mix of the year title.
