S1 REMIXES SARAH JAFFES
There’s little on the track besides the Texas songwriter’s yearning vocals, and the sparseness of the accompaniment works perfectly with the pleading lyrics. Credit producer S1 (Jay-Z, Beyonce, Kanye West) with adding his personal touch and creating something as emotionally resonant with the remix we’re premiering today.
S1 and Jaffe have a history of killer team-ups, and in addition to playing together in the side project the Dividends, whose “Fools Gold” we championed last year, they collaborated on the Eminem track “Bad Guy,” which appeared on the rapper’s 2013 Marshall Mathers LP 2.

THE COURTESAM DEFEAT EILEEN DALY IN COURT
The Courtesans, all-female four-piece doom rockers from London, have won their dispute over the name ‘The Courtesans’ in a landmark trademark case against The X Factor contestant Eileen Daly.
The band’s manager Howard Toshman trademarked the name in August 2013 which was subsequently opposed by Ms Eileen Daly, who claimed that she had been using the name since 1998.
Since the four-piece took on the name, they have been subject to a tirade of online abuse from Ms Daly: depicting them as four monkeys, accusing them of buying Facebook likes (which is something the band or their management have never done although is something Ms Daly freely admits to doing herself), suggesting they should be her cleaners, as well as playground name calling, and even going as far as saying that the four members and their management had committed fraud. The Courtesans meanwhile remained silent throughout.
EAST & YOUNG “HORIZON”
The Dutch duo’s earliest releases consist of progressive & uplifting anthems, including a remix for the title track of Kaskade’s Grammy-nominated album ‘Atmosphere,’ as well as their debut Ultra Music single “Starting Again” featuring Tom Cane.

Up-and-coming young producer/DJ MAKJ’s new single “Generic” is out today, December 5 on Spinnin’ Records. This punishing electro heater packs maximal production and hits just right. Stream the full song HERE.
To celebrate his newest record, MAKJ spoke with Vice Thump about “Generic” and the current state of dance music. When asked about the tongue-in-cheek name of the single, MAKJ explained, “I want to say yes [it is a parody], but I want to say no. It’s one of the best songs in my set. It’s the kind of song you show to your mom and dad after they listen to four other songs in the Beatport Top 10, and they would not know the difference. It’s not a parody… but it kind of is.”

BO AND THE LOCOMOTIVE “PISTOL”
Originally a solo project, Bo and the Locomotive has re-emerged as a full band, and they will be releasing their sophomore full-length LP It’s All Down Here From Here on January 27, 2015. It’s All Down Here From Here strikes the perfect balance between traditional and experimental. The band’s familiar-feeling pop/rock tunes might initially appear to be straightforward, well-crafted indie-rock, but then the off-kilter melodies and unexpected instrumentation ensue, and it starts to defy easy, concise description.

PHIL COLLINS SUFFERS ILLNESS DECEMBER 6
“Thank you very much for the incredible, heartfelt support that was in full effect at the 2014 Little Dreams Foundation concert on December 6. We worked hard to bring you artists from all over the world, along with tomorrow’s young stars, who performed their hearts out on stage.
As you know, Phil Collins was scheduled to perform a few songs at the end of the night; however, he suffered an illness during sound check and doctor’s were brought in to see him. Phil wanted to perform and be there for his fans, the children and the Foundation. His health was monitored right up until the time when he would take the stage. The doctor’s insisted that he could not do it. He addressed the audience and, with great sadness, told them what happened.
Everyone is concerned for Phil’s health, and rightfully so. We hope that you’ll understand that this situation was completely out of his control, and he’s sorry to have disappointed his fans. Because this is Phil’s charity and only operates on the highest level of integrity, the Little Dreams Foundation is offering a voucher for the full, face value of the ticket amount towards the December 5, 2015 concert in lieu of refunds. This will affect the funds we had hoped to raise for the children for 2015, so to alleviate that, Phil Collins has personally made a donation of $100,000 to the Little Dreams Foundation.
We appreciate the support and understanding that we have received. The vast majority of attendees have told us that they had one of the most touching and best experiences ever. For that, we’re eternally grateful. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your understanding and hope that you will continue to support Phil Collins and Orianne Collins-Mejjati in their efforts to make dreams come true for children. ” – Orianne Collins-Mejjati
