JS aka The Best offers a new way to approach percussion on Bossa Nova. Continuing his study of sound already shown in his countless commercial works, he takes on percussion in an emotionally charged fashion. Far away from the idea of a time-keeping device, he infuses the concept with the utmost of emotion. The result of this strategy is something that truly touches the soul. All of his pieces have this similar cadence, a looseness that is liberating. By refusing to pigeonhole himself into one style, the tracks flow one to the other in a lyrical fashion. Vocals add to this heightened state. Quite liberating the approach does draw from his own background, one that includes his classical percussion training. The movement towards a more organic sound within electronic music is a relatively recent one and most overseas with the likes of the Moritz von Oswald Trio and Elektro Guzzi. By keeping the work within a more pop-oriented context, however, JS aka The Best sidesteps the trend of the experimental for something a bit more accessible.

Sebastian Ingrosso & Steve Angello revive Buy Now alias after 14 years on Church/Speak Up12/30/2022 Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Axwell make up Swedish House Mafia, but it’s not the only group these three are in. Axwell and Ingrosso teamed up for years and were incredibly successful, but the project between Ingrosso and Angello, called Buy Now, is objectively lesser known. As a duo, the two put out a single in 2008 and then went silent. (Tracks under Buy Now and Peter Brocks on Spotify are incorrectly attributed, and Buy Now actually refers to Buy Now Records.) However, as 2022 draws to a close, they’ve risen from the depths for an A/B release with PARISI, “Church” and “Speak Up.” “We Haven’t released ‘Buy Now’ music since 2008 so 2022 felt like a good start to fuck around in the studio and put out music,” Angello said on Twitter. “First we did the collaboration with Salvatore Ganacci and today we let you take part of a long night at Church studios in London with our brothers Parisi!” Check out the two new singles below.

From planning releases, to booking shows, not all can keep up with the trends and demands within progressive music culture. After navigating the pandemic, many artists fell short of being able to finance their careers and invest in themselves, many turned to online concerts with success, whereas many lost their sense of direction.

Some of Trey’s smash hits include “2 Seater” “Louis V,” “Love Sound,” “Laughed Last,” and “McChicken.” Despite having the gifted skills of a producer and a refined sense of music, finding his space in this extremely competitive industry was not easy for Trey.
