Empire of the Sun - Daily Beat

October 1, 2013

By Christopher Lavinio

With the comeback of Lady Gaga apparent after the release of her single, Applause, we've been patiently waiting for the DJing world to eat this up and start putting their own spin on the track. Who else is better than remixing savant and Mr. Summertime All the Time, Viceroy, to mix Lady Gaga's insinuating beats with the tropical signature sounds. With the Bob Marley-esque influence with Viceroy's use of guitars and synths to create that 'feel good' vibe, we are sure in for a treat with Viceroy's defining sound. The single is available on Lady Gaga's Applause Remix EP which features remixes from DJ White Shadow, Fareoh, Empire of the Sun and more. Enjoy!

Ellie Goulding - Burn ( Mat Zo Remix )

By Oscar Hoyle

Mat Zo is one of those producers that never fails to deliver. Although this remix is more towards the mainstream side of electronic music, I think the way that the London based musician has adapted and become more diverse in terms of his releases compliments his originality and skill. Being one of the leading artists on Above and Beyond's label AnjunaBeats, Mat Zo has received a lot of praise for his collaborations with Porter Robinson, Arty and his recent remix of Alive by Empire of the Sun. Personally I love the way Mat Zo has recently been producing good, unique and quality music and he is an ambassador in his own way for trance and AnjunaBeats. This remix is something slightly different from Mat Zo. Consisting of big room progressive buildups to transferring into some sections of electro. The remixing quality is definitely there to see and the vocals are perfectly complimented into the song. Definitely a track to listen out for in the remaining summer festivals. Enjoy
