The Respect My Region Fresh Drops playlist is our curated electronic dance music playlist. This week there’s a lot of new faces like Zouj and Teddy Killerz. These singles are the newest additions but I strongly suggest you follow the official ‘Fresh Drops’ playlist at the bottom of this post to see our whole collection. We update our playlist regularly and constantly add brand new tracks, so we always have something new for your collection.
Here’s five new tracks that came out last week that we couldn’t not add.
Mike Candys – Vibe
[Tech House]
Here at RMR, we show scrutiny as house listeners. You’re not gonna be hearing mundane tracks in our playlist. That said, Vibe by Mike Candys is a solid hype song.
This track is on Fresh Drops for two reasons. On one hand, the bounce when the breakdowns hit is utterly infectious. And on the other, the energy in this track is consistent the whole way through.
With 2.7 million Spotify listeners and a discography over a decade old, Mike Candys is no stranger to house music. His mastery of the “club bounce” makes snippets such as Vibe much like dosages of such an environment’s energy.
JEFF?! – Diamonds
[Hardcore]
And next up is… JEFF?! Seriously though, who do these guys think they are? Coming in on 6,500 Spotify listeners and a name that will obliterate any sentence structure, JEFF?! has bestowed unprecedented fire upon us with their new track Diamonds. It didn’t take very long for these guys to get added to the Fresh Drops playlist.
This song kicks like a revenant mule. There’s no two ways about it. The spitfiring acid bass in Diamonds could wake up your whole neighborhood on its own. Everything about this track clamps down hard and thrashes your mind like a telekinetic blender.
The Hardcore genre faces a similar plague as that of dubstep and house, and it is repetition. Many songs attempt to sound “epic” or dramatic and follow up with nothing more than a stomping kick, but JEFF?! gets right to what the people want and does it better. Seriously, if you like what you hear be sure to give these guys some love so they can blow up right quick.
Zouj – Fl00te
[Trap/Future Bass]
ZOUJ is one strange dude. This track is being marked as future bass for its tempo and bass/kick, but nothing else about it really pins it to that genre beyond song form. Fl00te is one of four prophesizing tracks for Zouj’s debut mixtape Tagat, and its as chilling as it is catchy.
In his Spotify bio, ZOUJ states “I am trying to make my machines sound human by emulating errors… while i’m [sic] trying my best as a human to sound like a machine.” The new EP “Fl00te” definitely emulates that.
This track contains a melodic synth with an organic, imperfect aspect and percussion reminiscent of world-drumming. This elements create an uncanny valley between real-world sound and ZOUJ’s aforementioned “machines.”
Buku – Right Here
[Dubstep]
Where would the Fresh Drops playlist be without dubstep hot off the grill? Buku’s new single Right Here has a diabolical refrain and nasty drops. Nothing left to be desired from his reputation in the industry.
Pittsburgh-based and a Music Technology graduate, Buku has been pumping out killer singles and EP’s since 2012. His track Front to Back blew up alongside a Bassnectar remix, now sitting peachy at just under 11 million plays.
There’s some tearout magic happening in Right Here, earning it a prime spot on the Fresh Drops playlist.
Kompany, Teddy Killerz – Beast
[Drum and Bass/Darkstep]
“I. Kill it. That’s what I do.” That phrase gets stuck in your head after prolonged exposure to this track. As a DnB mix should be, Beast is extremely catchy. This ruthless collab between Kompany and Teddy Killerz could be used as evidence as to why drum and bass should be harvested and used to power cities.
All jokes aside, Beast’s only flaw is that the song ends. Everything from the drums to the sampling in this is spot-on. You can thank Teddy Killerz for this DnB goodness, but the brostep vibes all come from Kompany’s edge-lord energy. A match that may as well have been made in heaven if it weren’t for the fact that God is probably more of a psytrance guy.
