Enjoy some intense progressive house music from DJ Adam K of Toronto, Canada. The videos are some full tracks I especially enjoyed and the player below lets you stream samples of 100 of his songs. This isn’t for everyone, but if you’re into this type of music you’ll surely find yourself dancing by the end.
Adam K Live @ Pure Future White - Lithuania, 2010.05.01
For Toronto, Canada’s Adam K, it’s tremendous amounts of skill, creativity, hard work, and years of perfecting his craft that have catapulted him into the upper echelon of dance music.
Fueling his stellar live sets is over 15 years of experience in mastering sound design, audio engineering and producing. His keen ear for shaping sounds and knack for composing emotional hooks fuse together to create his trademark style. Adam’s solo and collaborative projects have dominated the underground including landmark tracks such as “I Can Feel”, “You’re Not Alone”, “Question”, and “From The Speaker” which melded the minds of Adam, long-time friend Soha, and Toolroom frontman Mark Knight. Of course it was another collaboration with Soha that captivated the world with “Twilight”. Named an Essential New Tune on the legendary BBC Radio 1, Pete Tong set the tone for one of the biggest records of 2008, which was confirmed by landing at #2 for the best-selling tracks overall on Beatport that year. Adam’s music is a favourite of the world’s top DJs seeing releases such as “Complicated” be a staple in sets from the likes of Tiesto, Above & Beyond, Gareth Emery, Matt Darey, Rank1, Judge Jules, Cosmic Gate, Menno de Jong, and more.
As a society we’re always searching for the latest and freshest content. The latest album, an upcoming artist, the next big music video, the latest gadgets, the most recent reflections of our time.
Though this is an important mentality we must not forget about all the amazing creations that built us up to this. Sometimes you need to bump a throwback to help remember where it all came from.
Beat the heat today with this smooth 1995 throwback, Naughty by Nature’s “Feel Me Flow” sets the perfect summer vibe, 15 years later.
Our friends at VibeToThis have been killing it lately with new music and jams for all to enjoy. In the past few weeks they’ve put up their new website, beefed up their content load and have really blossomed their idea into something greater every day. This is a mash-up from one of their recent posts I especially enjoyed. A trance/electronica upbeat vibe with some electric guitar and Jay-Z on vocals.
