Freebie Friday: Uptown Funk (Tenten One Edit)

Uptown Funk

Friday is an amazing day. The weekend is only hours away, and many of us prepare to enjoy some excellent music in the city of angels. It’s also the day where we give away free music, so what’s not to like? Today we offer up a free download of Uptown Funk by our own Tenten One to kickstart the weekeknd. The edit is a great blend of of funk and techno, and is sure to do damage on any dance floor it graces. You can stream and download the track via the Soundcloud player below.

Tenten One’s edit stays true to the title keeping some of that funky vibe, but also has enough of his own personal touches to make this a massive dance floor tool. An excellent sub bass layer and claves provide a nice foundation to start the track, and from there it’s off to the races with rolling grooves, acid squelches, and the iconic Uptown Funk vocal. Enjoy this freebie, and be on the lookout for more tracks from Tenten One this year.

Techno Therapy: Chaim – Blue Shadow

rumors

Chaim is an artist who has the ability to tell magnificent stories through his music. It takes very well rounded and thoughtful productions to make waves in the scene, and Blue Shadow satisfies the prerequisite. Teetering on the border of tech house and progressive, Blue Shadow is an emotional ride condensed into an arrangement that is sure to have both the mind and body swaying to it’s dominant lead. It is with sounds such as this that has put him in good musical standing with Guy Gerber and the Rumors brand. He’s controlled dance floors all over the world, and Rumor has it that Los Angeles is his next stop.

Chaim will be taking over the decks for the One Year Anniversary of Clinic Wednesdays, with support from Clovis and Bambook for what is sure to be quite the celebration. An intimate venue with the slick sounds of Chaim sounds like the ideal setting for such an evening.
