German DJ/producer Tocadisco heads to Toolroom Records to release his power-packed double header of “The Groove” and “The Clamp.” A veteran of dance music in every sense, Tocadisco brings his trademark dance-savy sound to his next efforts, even darker than we remember from March’s “That Miami Track.” While remaining out of mainstream spotlight, Tocadisco continues to produce dance floor killers and please club-goers like he has done for over 15 years. Get a sense of his original flavor and listen to his new tracks below the jump.
The Knocks – Learn To Fly
Feel-good summer music is without a doubt some of my favorite music to listen to and The Knocks nailed it with their latest song, “Learn To Fly,” that they’re giving away for free on their Facebook. This tune will surely tide you over until our premiere of a Fred Falke x The Knocks collaboration coming next week, so listen above (in artwork), go like their Facebook, and download!
Break Science – Flocyde (Florence and the Machine & The Pharcyde)
Today I’ve got another great track fit for bringing in summer.. It features vocals from Florence and the Machine, and sampled beat from Pharcyde, all mashed and remixed together by Break Science with their added electronic flavor. The upbeat vibe filled with just enough bass is the perfect track to listen to at all times of the day. Having a live drummer and keyboardist just adds a different warmth to the track. Break Science is the electronic group signed to Pretty Lights Music who dropped the free album The Monolith Code. Here’s a quote from the group about the track
“The melody is a key element that we like to infuse into our brand of electronic music. After hearing this song by Florence and the Machine, we felt the vocal line evokes an emotion which soars above the hard dance floor drums and future synths we eventually combined with it. We added a touch of the Pharcyde to give the listener another perspective on the tune and create a mashup of two very different yet familiar pieces of music. Hope y’all dig it!”
Turn up this track, and enjoy!

Le Youth – Dance With Me
Support Le Youth on Facebook | SoundCloud
Los Angeles native Le Youth makes his SL debut courtesy of an absolute tropical heater, his highly anticipated original work Dance With Me. If you were paying attention you would have noticed that we debuted the track in our April Mixtape not too long ago, and have been waiting the day to unveil the whole thing in downloadable form just for you. He’s also really impressed with his recent remixes of Goldroom and Moon Boots, and he might soon step into that top production tier soon enough. With summertime creeping around the corner the West Coast is really starting to raise the bar for these types of jams. It only makes sense right? The livin’s easy out here and the music reflects just that.
Beam Me Up – CAZZETTE
Believe it or not, I think Cazzette has actually managed to strike equilibrium with traditional (I use that term loosely) house music and dubstep. Personally, I think dubstep is the lovechild of rebellious 90s punk and electro. I’m not a fan of dub, and I never will be, but that does not mean its “bad” music or “distasteful”. It just harbors itself in a different place within EDM. However, Cazzette believes their track “Beam Me Up” may just be the answer, the bridge, and just right amount of each ingredient (not a mouthful of wobble) to close the gap between dub and house. I concur.
