"Flight 643" (Fei Fei's Faded Trap Remix) - Tiësto

With the dawn of Club Life Vol. 3 Tiësto has made it clear that he's not interested in sticking to one sound. In the latest 319th episode of his podcast of the same name, Tijs signs out on an Electro set with this banging Trap remix of one the best tracks he's ever produced: "Flight 643." The original with its faded extended synths leading into soft rapid basslines lends itself swimmingly to Fei Fei's masterful retake. Lauded by 12th Planet as a "dope ass producer," this energetic Asian female producer seems to have the dice in her favor - hell even Bassnectar commended her: "the future is diversity, tempo changes, the whole deal. You go girl." There's a dearth of females in the industry outside of Tech & Deep House and I'm hoping the stars align right for her. At least for the time being, if there's any style that can take you to the top in 6 months or less it's Trap. If you were at Webster Hall for Carnage last night you'll know what we mean.

Track of the Day: "Boing Clash Boom" (Major Lazer Remix) - Dada Life

I always anticipate Dada Life's DJ Mix and May 2013's broadcast left my mouth watering. Olle & Stefan featured some banging remixes in their first for this warm weather and one in particular stood out: Major Lazer's remix of their own hit "Boing Clash Boom." Trap and the two Swedes are not a combination you'd usually expect, but one must not forget there are no rules to Dada. With Diplo's signature sound juxtaposed with some powerful bass and snippets of D&B there's something to appreciate in here for everybody. We'll update you when the extended mix drops soon!

Throwback Thursday: "Dirt Off Your Shoulder" (Brillz & Z Trip Remix) - Jay-Z

Whether you've hopped on the trap train or not, here's an undeniably good remix of "Dirt Off Your Shoulders" by Jay-Z. Kicking it back to one of the kings of hip-hop, my ears are very pleased to hear the preservation of Jay Z’s lyrics over a subtle trapped out version of the original's signature beat. Brillz is an artist everyone should be sure to get familiar with, constantly putting out some of the hardest hitting and innovative trap music out there right now. So if you’re feelin’ like a pimp, go ahead and grab the free download below!

Track of the Day: "Love Sosa" (RL Grime Remix) - Chief Keef

One day he's Clockwork, the other he's RL Grime, but shapeshifter Henry Steinway never fails to bring home the bangers. This one is a remix of Chief Keef's "Love Sosa" and has a HUGE TRVP BEAT sure to be banging through those eardrums come festival season. Grime jumps in and keeps pumping the pedal through Keef's flow with absolutely no mercy. In a time when productions have otherwise been slow, Steinways comes through with a Trap anthem to keep our appetites hungry before the madness begins this summer. If you're headed to Electric Forest this year be sure to catch Steinway as both his aliases, and grab the free download!

Track of the Day: "That Lean" - Borgore ft. Carnage

In anticipation of his new EP set for release at the end of May, Borgore just uploaded two hours ago the first single "That Lean" featuring one of his bros (and legendary Chipotle gangster) Carnage. This is the first we've heard of Carnage's rapping skills, which kick Borgores' royally in the ass, although they're not quite as funny. You'll be wanting to bathe in holy water by the time these two dish out heavy-hitting bass with a raw festival-sized sound ready to shake the circuit of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway!
