Zimmer is a producer that grew up between France and California, and his music is a perfect combination of both places’ spirits: one half Parisian class and the other California sunshine. On “Slave To Your Heart”, Zimmer’s teamed up with an excellent vocalist named Jeremy Glenn, who adds an Azari & III feeling to the mix.
The party season is about to start and I would usually recommend a LBD (Little Black Dress) for occasions like Christmas dinners and New Year’s Eve celebrations, but instead I suggest you take a look at the thigh-high HUGO slit dress in the pictures. Top model Karolina Kurkova is sporting the up-to-date version of a long black evening gown on the HUGO runway. I say: Opt for long and black this season and flash a hint of leg! Let’s get the party season started!

Pandr Eyez have really got us excited. They make a synthy, dark version of early 2000s r&b. We’ve never really heard anything like it before, but we’re hoping to hear a lot more. This one, “Eyes On You”, is the title track from their new EP. Can we please have an LP soon, Pandr Eyez?

Cristian Cassara grew up in a small town in Germany, the son of Italian immigrants who owned a pizzeria. In between shifts washing dishes for his family, he explored his secret passion, finding off nights to DJ in a little club in town. As his love for music progressed, he became interested in making music, and soon he turned his regular DJ gigs into secret live performances, where he would be the only person who would know that the music coming out of the speakers wasn’t coming off the records, but out of his hands. The audience danced on just as if their favorite songs were playing…
Fast forward a few years to now, and Cristian is releasing music as Cassara on the label Flexidisco. “Fantasma” is a great track from his new EP, filled with the energy of many many hours of playing live to a dancefloor. Download it while it lasts.

My Favorite Robot is a trio of gents named trio of James Teej, Jared Simms and Voytek Korab. We were hoping they were actually going to be robots… This is a track from their recently released Unplugged EP. It’s called “New Addiction”, and we are indeed hooked.
