Undiscovered Beats March Chart


Hey Everyone,

 The latest instalment of your favourite chart is here! That's right, Im going to be taking you through the hottest tracks over this last month! If you don't know how the blog works I will be coming up with a top 10 list of the best new productions and giving you all an insight as to ones that just missed out (in our "Close but no Pineapple" section).

This month De Coster Victor came up with a few tracks that caught my eye the FCL - It's You (Redondo Remix) in particular, also got to say thanks to Zoe for finding Amtrac - Those Days (Viceroy Remix) for me! If you are new to this blog and you like what you hear then make sure you head to http://www.facebook.com/groups/undiscoveredbeats/ 
where you can be a part of our community and look to post new tracks that you've found to get a mention.

 This month I have found an act to me that sound like a cross between Justice/Daft Punk/Pheonix and Louis La Roche so if you like those listen to Lemaitre my favourites are Coffee Table, Time to Realise and Appreciate.

 I am looking to set up being a DJ and have posted my recent mix below for you all to listen to! Let me know if you have any thoughts about it and if you like it share it with your friends.

THIS WEEKS UNDISCOVERED TUNE

Jonas Rathsman - Bringing You Down



This month we Jonas Rathsman secure the number one spot in our March chart. "Bringing You Down" is full of heavy baselines, soulful vocals and groovy melodies to add to your summer playlist.

The track starts with atmospheric synths, a cowbell and a moaning vocal to get you into the vibe. When the first baseline kicks the track catches your interest. We hear additional vocal moans added to build up to the heavy baseline. "Oh So Real, Real, Real... Bringing You Down, Down, Down" then starts to be looped as the melody rises before the major drop of the song. Everything works so well and it would take something special to beat Erols - Night Work's remix and Jonas has come up with the goods here!

$100 Bill - Benoit & Sergio


This month we congratulate Benoit and Sergio as they take the top spot and treat us to this brilliant summer track. "$100 Bill" has a real 80's vibe making you think of Miami Palm trees and attractive people dancing in the sun and THE SUMMER! Which will be with us soon!

It starts with a simple drum beat, we then hear a crazy catchy manipulated vocal that changes in pitch which accompanies the track all the way through. "A $100 billfold in my back pocket and I've already forgot that I've got a girlfriend because these tastes is long but the night is young, young young, YOUNG YOUNG, YOUNG, YOUNG, YOUNG YOUNG!" As soon as the plucking melody drops in you can't do anything but dance. Definitely going to be on everyones summer playlists!

Last Quarter of 2012 Chart

Hey Guys,
I'm so sorry that I haven't been able to update my chart for a while. I have been travelling throughout South America but IM BACK NOW! I have created a super chart. I've made a top 30 for the last quarter. There were so many good tracks you need to listen to them all. Even the ones that didn't make the cut. It's great to see so many views each day even when there hasn't been an update for months. I would like to thank Gavin Murray for that Amy Winehouse remix  (Ifan David - No Good) and and Dec Coster Victor for letting us all know about Nicholas Jarr & Theatre Roosevelt - The Ego and that Erol Alkan remix of Connan Mockasin - Forever Dolphin Love influenced me when deciding this charts "Blast From The Past" section (where we pick a song from history). If you are new to the chart head to http://www.facebook.com/groups/undiscoveredbeats/ 
where you can look to post new tracks that you've found and be part of our community.

So! Lets crack on with the chart then shall we?

THIS WEEKS UNDISCOVERED TUNE

Flume - Holdin' On



Australian DJ Flume rises to the top sport in this last quarter of 2012 chart. When I was travelling I made friends with a few Aussies and one of my friends Noni told me about Flume. Since I've been back in the UK I've been listening to his stuff constantly. I would advise you to check his Youtube channel out as he has many great tracks that you need to hear. His productions tend to combine many genres of music giving excellent results. You will typically hear hip hop beats, house synths and soulful vocals that gel really well together. Holdin' On has got to be my favourite track of his collection. The sleepy tones at the beginning of the track combined with the impassioned vocals sets things up for a chilled track then BAM! You're hit with powerful synths and beats that provide so much energy. From start to finish this song is one that will get people dancing.

THIS WEEKS UNDISCOVERED TUNE

Maceo Plex - Future Musik (A Tribute To Closer Musik)



HE'S DONE IT AGAIN! Back to back top spots! Maceo Plex is everything that you could ask for in a quality producer at the moment. "Future Musik" is the B side to Maceo's "Love Somebody Else" and what a track to pair it with! He teased us all with "Future Musik" back in February on his Essential Mix and it has definitely been worth the wait! This track has chilled out ambient sounds to be backed up with heavy bassy synths. My favourite part of the track is at 4:40 where we are set in a bassy trance and then the track just explodes! Just listen to it, enjoy it and anticipate his new releases because if they are anything like these we are in for a treat!

THIS WEEKS UNDISCOVERED TUNE

Maceo Plex & Jon Dasilva - Love Somebody Else



The Crosstown Rebeller Maceo Plex has teamed up with Sweede Jon Dasilva and has rightfully taken the top spot this month. "Love somebody" is a typical "Undiscovered Beats" gem! The track uses atmospheric synths, heavy basslines and funky disco styled vocals to combine perfectly to potentially be one of the top tracks of 2012. There is not much else that I can say only that I will be going mental when he drops it at The Warehouse Project in Manchester later this month! Check it out!

THIS WEEKS UNDISCOVERED TUNE

Marbert Rocel - Small Hours



Trio Marbert Rocel have been releasing quirky tracks since 2004. It's their Jazz/House hybrid that has got the German band recognised. Their track 'Small Hours' taken from their most recent album of the same name has hit the set lists of many djs trying to create that calm and chilled out atmosphere that we all love. The threesome have worked hard on this track thinking about its minimal melody to mix in with the bass and drum beats to get your body moving. The voice of Antje Seifarth sends chills of joy down your spine. Her vocals along with the sax of Robert Krause leaves the track feeling fresh. The best point of the track is near the end when all parts of the piece can all be heard but the enjoyment is getting there. Enjoy their track and if you like this you may want to check out music from Crazy P.
