It's the Supersound

Kicking off 2012 with a bang, LOUNGIN’ RECORDINGS welcomes CHUBBY DUBZ (aka Oliver $ and Gene Siewing) to the family. Chubby Dubz background and origins combine all manors of influences, as Oliver is native to Germany and Gene to the US. With this chemistry comes a fusion of minds that produces great house music with enough musical soul to have real longevity and keep the dance floors moving. The pair’s first release, The Album Sampler #1, as the name suggests is the first release of 4 from the self titled Chubby Dubz album due out on loungin’ later this year. All the 12”s will feature full length versions of the album tracks crafted especially for the dancefloor plus remixes by key players from the loungin’ fold plus some very special guests.

Here’s a release that made me turn off the lights and turn the volume up. It’s quite simply, house music at its best with subtle basslines and smooth melodies. This entire record is beautiful – deep and lush yet not over produced.

First we have a free download…followed by the rest of the EP.

2012 is shaping up to be a fine year for Childish Gambino.  His reputation as a live performer continues to gain a full head of steam just in time for a handful of upcoming tour dates, including a stint at Coachella 2012.  Today marks the release of two official remixes of the Childish Gambino track “Heartbeat” by a pair of A-list remixers: Oliver and Treasure Fingers.  Pick up these two absolute gems of remixes out TODAY on Glassnote Records.

***On the lookout: A full package is being released February 14th with more “Heartbeat” remixes plus a Little Dragon remix of “All the Shine.”

Sydney resident, Wax Motif, is a name you need to remember for 2012. A collaborator on some of my favorite tracks of 2011 including ‘Go Deep’ with Neoteric and ‘Love Ting’ with Anna Lunoe, Wax Motif has a massively appealing sound — seamlessly blending House and Disco with a catchy bassline to boot. His latest endeavor is a remix of ‘Dirty Talk’ by GDD™ fav, Oliver, and Waxy delivers. Get your 320 fix below.

Last month, we heard that The 2 Bears will be releasing their debut album on DFA records on the 30th of January, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. The highly anticipated release will feature some of my favorite tracks of last year including ‘Be Strong,’ ‘Bear Hug,’ and their newest single just released this week, ‘Work.’ The ‘Work’ EP is incredible. Not only is the original an embodiment of all that I love about The 2 Bears, but it also comes along with top-notch remixes from Toddla T, Oliver $, Supabeatz, and Franky Rizardo. Stream below and go grab the whole thang on iTunes now.
