10 Most Overplayed Songs on the Radio, Summer 2013

Summer 2013 is upon us. So, I guess it's time to release the list of most overplayed songs on the radio, Summer 2013 edition.

10) Macklemore & Ryan Lewis feat. Ray Dalton - Can't Hold US I guess Macklemore and Ryan Lewis are doing pretty well.  Pretty epic video.
9) Bruno Mars - When I Was Your Man One of those songs that's been out for a while, but has gradually built more and more airplay.
8) AWOLNATION - Sail Speaking of a song that's been out for a while...
7) Imagine Dragons - Radioactive Imagine Dragons have done exceptionally well the past year.
6) Rihanna feat. Mikky Ekko - Stay As with most Rihanna songs, she gets heavy airplay.
5) Daft Punk feat. Pharrell Williams - Get Lucky I like this song... and yes, it's everywhere.
4) Capital Cities - Safe and Sound Maybe it's a California thing, but I've heard this song way too much.  Liked it at first, now I can't stand it.
3) Jennifer Lopez feat. Pitbull - Live It Up She's back, on this list.
2) Pitbull feat. Christina Aguilera - Feel This Moment Pitbull must have a good manager, as he seems to always collab with the right artists to appear on this list consistently.
1) Robin Thicke feat. T.I., Pharrell - Blurred Lines This song gets tired pretty quickly.  Though, I think it's Robin Thicke's most popular song to date. Sorry, this isn't the banned version of the video.

Album Review: Disclosure - Settle

Disclosure - Settle

Style: House, UK Garage
Pros: Good
Cons: Not enough of it.
Overview: So in the recent state of over-saturated EDM, Disclosure's Settle is a nice breath of air.  Yes, this kinda minimal, stripped out House music feels good right now. Settle is a good listen that likens itself to something you'd here in a more intimate club, where the people are still cool, not cheesy.  Anyways, Disclosure is on fire right now, so take a listen.
Top Songs: Latch, White Noise

Song of the Month - June 2013

Alex Metric & Jacques Lu Cont feat. Malin - Safe With You

What happens when you team up Alex Metric, Jacques Lu Cont and Malin from Niki and the Dove, you get this banging track, Safe With You.

Album Review: Capital Cities - In A Tidal Wave of Mystery

Capital Cities - In A Tidal Wave Of Mystery

Style: Indie Rock, Synthpop
Pros: Fun, Pop
Cons: Can get overplayed fast.
Overview: When I first heard the song Safe and Sound, I enjoyed it, then the radio picked it up, and I can no longer stand it.  I guess that's what happens when you are on a big label. I do like the Pop-like Rock sound they are going for, even though there are a lot of bands out there that are similar.  I feel like I would have enjoyed this album a lot more if it was a year ago (If that makes any sense). However, I did find In A Tidal Wave of Mystery a fun album to listen to regardless.
Top Songs: They are actually similar and quite good.

10 Most Overplayed Dance Songs of Summer 2013

Summer 2013 is upon us. So, I guess it's time to release the list of most overplayed Dance songs of the Summer. You've probably heard of all these songs, especially since most of them crossed over to Pop radio.  Yes, I'm pretty tired of these songs.

10) Eric Prydz - Everyday Great song, I didn't want to put it on this list... but I do hear it a lot.
9) Style of Eye & Tom Staar - After Dark  The first of many similar sounding club music to make this list.
8) Nicky Romero & Nervo - Like Home It's been a huge year for these two artists... and now they have lots of airplay.
7) Tritonal ft. Cristina Soto - Still With Me (Seven Lions Remix) For a song that came out almost a year ago, I still hear it a lot... Maybe even more now that when it came out. Though, I admit, it's a really good song.
6) Mat Zo & Porter Robinson - Easy Take two of the hottest rising talent in the past year and this is what you get... an anthem... and a cool animated video.
5) Armin van Buuren feat. Trevor Guthrie - This Is What It Feels Like This song was destined to anthem-Pop-crossover status.
4) Icona Pop feat. Charli XCX - I Love It I'll admit, I don't care for this song even though I like Charli XCX.
3) Avicii vs Nicky Romero - I Could Be The One Oh Avicii, there you are on this list.  If you haven't seen the video, it's pretty funny.
2) Krewella - Alive I'll admit, I don't care for this song either.
1) Daft Punk ft. Pharrell Williams - Get Lucky Well, of course this would be here.  Love this song, but it's played damn everywhere. Thank you giant record label!

Electic Daisy Carnival Las Vegas 2013 Trailer

Coachella 2014 Rumors

Here we go... The 2013 Coachella season has come to a close.  There was no throwback hologram or Daft Punk (but we got a surprise visit from R. Kelly). Coachella 2014 is about a year away, and since early bird passes have just gone on sale, what better way to waste time and stir up the Coachella 2014 rumor pot.

So what are the rumors?

Daft Punk
Well of course... Heavily rumored to play in 2013, but didn't. So another go around for 2014.

The Rolling Stones
Rumor had it Coachella was close to signing them for 2013, but didn't or couldn't... so maybe 2014? If their current tour isn't their last.

David Bowie
Another dream get for Goldenvoice... though I think Bowie's stated he doesn't tour anymore.

The Smiths
Offered $5 million a few years back, but turned it down. Also, Morrissey's vegetarian ways might get in the way; in a 2009 performance he walked off stage due to the smell of BBQ.  Though Coachella has offered to have a vegetarian Coachella.  Also, he's been getting sick a lot lately.


What are some of the Coachella 2014 rumors you've heard about?
