Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: Muneshine - Full Throttle (ft. Darcys)

Although it's only May 31st, I believe summer has officially arrived. I got my first sunburn Sunday, this weekend is our first festival (Ever After) and Bump In The Hump is packed to the gills with warm, dance all night kind of tunes. Once again there's so much new music that I've had to hold quality tunes back.

This week I've opted to focus on more bright, bouncy and funky fresh tunes. Of those qualities, Muneshine's "Full Throttle" is the ultimate exemplar. In fact it was this month last year that I finally got my hands on his remix of Grand Analog's "Let Disco," which ultimately set the tone for summer.

Once again Muneshine has delivered delirium inducing funk that, as he puts it, is "about escaping what weighs you down." It's like a shot of helium to the heart. And that's exactly what I love so much about summer, you inevitably find some time to forget about any stresses or worries and let loose, just live life. Hit the open road with "Full Throttle" below, stream via Spotify and download via iTunes. Adding to the fun tonight on Bump In The Hump comes Funk Lords Chromeo with their exceptionally awesome take on Lorde's "Green Light." Staying with the summery theme, there's new Robotaki, brilliance from ZaGa and Orbiter, and bounce from Pat Lok and Loud Luxury. Finally, we get back to new episodes of My Mixtape this Friday with DeMiggs, who you'll hear from at the end of tonight's episode with a snippet of our conversation (full interview available Thursday). Bump In The Hump goes live tonight from 6-7 PM EDT only on Radio Humber, followed by My Mixtape Friday at 11.

Party Pupils - Patient

Future funk duo Party Pupils, fresh off their remix of Lorde's "Green Light," just dropped their first original, "Patient." This debut has me absolutely dumbfounded. But if you've enjoyed their long list of remixes, the quality of "Patient" should come as no surprise. However there's something to be said about how easily they've transferred their brilliance into an entirely original production. Sure their previous work may technically be remixes, but they're basically building a new track from the ground up, working around the original acapella.

So I guess what I'm saying is that these bearded boys have already established themselves highly capable, and have only doubled down on this, by doing everything in "Patient." It oozes with the most fun and fresh funk, the vocals are buttery brilliance and it's all capped off by mind blowing sound design in the drop (precisely the point that left me dumbfounded). Here's to hoping for more originals soon!As with all of Party Pupils' releases, "Patient" is available free via ToneDen. Get it here.

Lorde - Green Light (Hotel Garuda Remix)

By now everyone must've heard Lorde's latest release "Green Light." Maybe you even saw her kill it on Saturday Night Live (here). The rollicking keys, bumping bass and drum work while utterly enjoyable, left me wondering who would be the one to take this track to the next level with a remix?

Well I think we've got our answer. Let me present Hotel Garuda's new version, which maintains a lot of the original energy, while adding a little more bounce and grit. These two are already adept at reworking massive records (see Cazzette, Lana Del Ray, Anna Lunoe, Galantis, Kanye, Disclosure and others here), but this may be their best yet. The additional ivory tickling and wobbling grooves take the already anthemic track to levels appropriate for the club and kitchen dance sessions alike. Just like the original, it'll be nearly impossible to get Hotel Garuda's new version out of your head..At the moment there is now download available, so you'll have to survive on this soundcloud stream.
