Remix Wednesday: “Stay the Night” By Zedd (Almond Remix)
Following the success of his mix “College is Nuts,” Buffalo DJ/producer Almond tries out another unarguable truism with his winter mix “My Birthday is Nuts.” And while we’re now in the throes of spring, his remix of “Stay the Night” (the single featuring Hayley Williams that isn’t “Airplanes”) starting at 27:46 still hasn’t gotten old.
Album Review: "It's About Time"
"It's About Time" - Todd Terje Whether you love or hate the snark of its title, Norwegian producer Todd Terje’s (Terje Olsen) debut LP “It’s Album Time” is excellent. It’s smart, exceptionally well–done electronic music that falls somewhere in the vicinity of the disco genre.
