The Neighbourhood is back to bring you some more eye candy to go along with their music. After the success of Sweater Weater, the band has got their gears on full effect as they set out on the road for their Sorry August Tour.
Although they are currently are on tour, it doesn't stop them from slowing down. On August 7, they made their official release of their latest music video for Female Robbery, the first track of their debut EP, I'm Sorry... The track was also recorded with Lana Del Rey producer, Emile Haynie. Togethet, they've made created a Hitchcock-inspired music video, soothing your ears with some low-end bass and spine-chilling guitar crescendos.
Also, I'm Sorry... is now available on iTunes. Click here.
Chris "Manila Killa" is an 18 year-old producer, born and bred in Manila, Philippines. His recent releases have attracted the many ears of today's generation and is surely making his way up the ladder.
He started his producing music at 2009, starting from a bedroom DJ to, now, a rising star - recognized all over the United States and Asia.
Manila Killa peaked when he released his Bedroom Studio Mashups collection, including a variety of popular tracks, all put together to create an album of well-mashed synths and vibratos of your favourite songs.
Now, after so many years, Manila Killa has exposed himself to the world of dance music, and the constant evolution of it. With his latest remixes, he drives creations with inspirations from Nicky Romero, Alesso, Laidback Luke and R3hab. (see interview here)
A few days ago, on the day of the mastermind's birthday, he released his latest remix of Strobe by Deadmau5. Remixing a song by one of the biggest names in EDM was seen to be challenge, but it was a challenge Manila Killa was willing to take, head-on, accompanied by beautiful vocals by Eva Simmons. Listen to the drop unravel, and lose yourself in the track.
Here are more recent tracks by Manila Killa, including a preview of his remix to Fade Into Darkness, with El Cid, and his HOHME and Manila Killa bootleg, called A Troll's Mind.
On the 20th of July, Dada Life released a preview for their upcoming track, Feed The Dada. Dada Life's Steafn and Olle takes us to the studio where they play a fragment of the forthcoming track, declaring it to have "the biggest drop ever". There's no word on the release date of the said banger, but it's without a doubt that word is going to start hitting the streets.
This is a must-watch preview for those Dada Life fans. Check it out!
With Swanky Tunes' Here We Go, sitting on rank number 2 on Beatport's Top 10 for this week, here they are with another preview to a potential summer banger. Here's Swanky Tunes' take on Tonite Only's Go, to be released on August 17. This track is going to keep you on your tippy-toes for the full release! Get at it!
After much anticipation, The xx has finally released their latest single from their upcoming album, Coexist. It is without a doubt that The xx has stepped up their game, at the same time as keeping up with their niche. This track gains influence from their debut album - you'd be able to recognize that it's The xx from miles away.
It certainly has been awhile since Mousa has posted! We humbly apologize about this! We hope to get back on our feet very soon. The team has currently been busy with other priorities. But with the overwhelming announcements on upcoming releases, it's probably best to keep updated.
To start us off, Passion Pit has released another single to follow up with Take A Walk.
Here's 'I'll Be Alright', Passion Pit's second single to their upcoming album, Gossamer. Drums, synths, and stuttering samples. Let Passion Pit's latest single drive you back to an 80's vibe.
It's finally the weekend! I know that this quite a late post, but I'm sure that most of you are still up at this time. I hope you guys have a great weekend planned ahead of you and have fun!

As summer nears for some of us and ends for some, we present to you in this week's Indie Wednesday a playlist that is sure to brighten up your day, no matter what your proximity from summer's freedom is.
Whether you are welcoming the new schoolyear or saying goodbye to it, here is a list of tracks that will help you live through your day/week with good vibes.
Our featured artist for this week's post is Carousel; be sure to check out their music video for single "Let's go Home" - which, in my opinion, deserves way more views! Also check out a great remix of an Arcade Fire classic, as well as Caged Animals, Passion Pit, and the very chill-indie Bombay Bicycle Club.
Enjoy your day, Mousa viewer!
Calling Me Names - Good Old War Sprawl II (Remix by Damian Taylor and Arcade Fire) - Arcade Fire Gimme Twice - The Concept Eyes as Candles - Passion Pit Eavesdrop - Hazy Mountains I Will Take my Own Hand - Caged Animals Beggars - Bombay Bicycle Club
Mousa is back with Mainstream Mondays! We hope that you've all had a good weekend, but sadly, it's back to another working week. We've got some good "mainstream" tunes for you guys today and I hope you enjoy.
Make sure you check out Kanye West's new video for Lost In The World. This man never fails to amaze me, another artistic and beautifully crafted video. Also, Calvin Harris' video for the banger, Let's Go.
Today we feature a good old song from Kid CuDi, and he is also in Dia Frampton's (runner up for The Voice last year) latest single, a killer remix of Boyfriend and more. Work hard this week, guys! And before you know it, it'll be the weekend again.
Lost In The World - Kanye West Feat. Bon Iver
Let's Go - Calvin Harris Feat. Ne-Yo Up, Up And Away - Kid CuDi Call My Name - Cheryl Cole Let The Sun Shine - Labrinth Opposite of Adults - Chiddy Bang Boyfriend (Remix) - Justin Bieber Feat. 2Chainz, Mac Miller & Asher Roth Don't Kick The Chair - Dia Frampton Feat. Kid Cudi In Your Light - Gotye I Feel Better - Hot Chip
It certainly has been awhile since I've posted here, and I humbly apologize! Since the summer has broken out, the opportunities have been endless but at the same time, I've been getting back to my EDM roots.
Here to spice things up a bit, the anticipated studio album release of Size artists, AN21 and Max Vangeli's H8ers is due to release tonight. To celebrate, the duo will be taking up a Q&A session for fans on Twitter, simply tweet your question to @AN21 or @MaxVangeli, along with the #h8ers hashtag. This will be going on for 30 minutes, so get your thinking hats on.
The weekend is ending tonight and the beginning of a new week is about to start. We know that we haven't been posting for a few days and we apologise. Just the stress of exams (especially this week) became too much and we weren't able to find time to blog. However, it's been a great weekend and we definitely needed it and let off a little steam. We hope you guys had a great weekend!
We've got a lovely, chill playlist for you guys on another edition of Mousa Sundaze. I wouldn't mind having this on repeat and getting cozy on a Sunday like this, especially without having to stress about exams for at least a week or so. Today we feature The Tallest Man On Earth, a great tune from Kae Sun, Angus & Julia Stone and much more! Also, be sure to check out the music video from Xavier Rudd's Follow The Sun below. It's quite a beautiful video, to say the least.
Xavier Rudd, from Victoria, Australia, has put together this amazing video with an equally amazing song. He is actually a multi-instrumentalist, producing songs with "socially concious themes, such as environmentalism and the rights of Aboriginal peoples." If you're stuck in a tight, building surrounded city like me, watch this video and take a moment to admire and escape to the breathtaking landscapes of Stradbroke Island in Queensland, Australia.
Indie Wednesdays - where artists, both relatively well-known and unknown, are exposed. This week's post is exactly that: a playlist composed of tracks from a mix of artists, some that you may know already and some that you have never heard of before, with unique individual styles.
Today's main feature is the Asteroids Galaxy Tour. They are one of my favorite artists of all time, and their vibrant indie/funk style with Mette Lindberg's piercing, "epitome-of-individuality" voice, is sure to send chills down any listener's spine. The music video for their hit "The Golden Age" can be seen down below.
Aside from the Asteroids, the playlist contains chill indie from Fanfarlo and the XX (thank you, Rachel), fun indie/rock from the Black Keys (probably my all-time favorite band), Arcade Fire, and rather underground indie artists like Jinja Safari and Locksley. Be sure not to miss out every single track on here because they are all worth your ears!
Great apprehension is always present when Manila Killa is due to release a new track. But the wait is finally over, and after much of his teasing about the track via Facebook and Twitter, we present to you his latest remix!
Fancy Footwork by Chromeo has been a prominent tune in the electro scene, and many DJs make an attempt on doing their take on it. Manila Killa never cease to amaze, with his signature vibratos, and synths over synths to create something, magical.
If there was a motto for Manila Killa, it would be that he never disappoints. As he builds up the climax, he leaves us with hanging for the explosion afterwards. And my god, that explosion will keep your dancing shoes on fire. This track may well be a summer anthem for many, and we're very excited with what Manila Killa has in store in the future.
Also, just after the release, Manila Killa tweeted about a heavy edit of Bounce by Calvin Harris and Kelis that he's been working on.
just made a suuuuper heavy edit of Calvin Harris and Kelis' 'Bounce.' 100k plays on soundcloud giveaway????
— Manila Killa (@manilakilla) May 23, 2012
Could this be? Well, you best be spreading the word of this track! Manila Killa is definitely on fire this summer. It is without a doubt that he'll be making a few summer anthems.
If you guys enjoyed Afrojack and Shermanology's monster banger, Can't Stop Me Now, here's their unplugged version of it. Never would've thought that such a song would released an unplugged version. As heavy as it could get, I guess some things really do have their soft side.
With Tearce "Kizzo" on the piano, and Leon, Dorothy, and Andy Sherman (Shermanology) on vocals, they present to you a harmonious melody that'll ease you in to relaxation. Enjoy!
To further satisfy your hip hop tastes on Thug Tuesday, Mousa presents to you the talented British hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks.
Their debut album, Stereo Typical, was released in late 2011, after the duo took YouTube by storm - scoring over 10 million views - with their music video for fun track "Down with the Trumpets," which you can view down below.
Dubbed by Q Magazine as a "pop prospect with a winning charm you can't teach," Rizzle Kicks takes a fun spin on hip hop with their truthful teen-spirited debut album filled with quickfire lyrics and danceable instrumentals. Although the album is named otherwise, Rizzle Kicks's music is not the average, "stereotypical" rap music; their tracks stir a sense of addiction in every hip hop lover, and everyone ends up coming back for more.
The playlist for today's Thug Tuesday is something you guys have got to take a listen to. Mousa is back to treat your eyes with the best of Hip Hop/R&B. Make sure to listen to each track with full attention!
Today we feature videos from Azealia Banks and B.o.B, tracks from Wretch 32, Kirko Bangz, Boston-newbie Moufy, Childish Gambino, Rick Ross and more!
Azealia Banks is pretty beast, and I found it appropriate that we feature her on our site somehow. So here's her music video for 212. Trust me, an addicting song with a great video.Additionally, we've also got a brand new music video from B.o.B and his track, Play For Keeps. This track is one of my favourites on the Strange Clouds album and the rap is epic. Both of these artists have a lot going for them right now in the hip hop scene and they're here to make your Tuesday just a tad better. 212 - Azealia Banks
Play For Keeps - B.o.B

All of you better get at this quick if you want to hear the rest of it! Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike and Yves V are releasing their latest remix of Shed My Skin by D*Note. However, they're adding quite a twist to the teaser.
There's nothing better artists find pleasure in than teasing their audience with an anticipated track. They will be releasing their latest remix, bit by bit. It's evident that the first 60 seconds of the remix has caught the full attention of some fans. For every 10,000 plays, Dimitri, Mike, and Yves will be revealing 30 more seconds of the track, until every piece is exposed to give pleasure to your ears.
Now share this track with your friends, for everyone's sake! It goes without saying that this may be a potential summer anthem.
One of the most anticipated albums in EDM history has finally been released today! Swedish DJ and producer, Eric Prydz finally presents to you, Pryda.
After waiting for practically seven years for such a release, it seems that 2012 is bringing the best for us. The album is said to be a Pryda album, as opposed to an 'Eric Prydz' one. Eric will be releasing his debut artist album later this year. Pryda has certainly gotten the nations stirring with anticipation, and many say that this may just be one hell of a game changer.
Without further adieu, Mousa brings you a stream of Eric Prydz presents Pryda. Enjoy!
To keep updated with Eric Prydz, follow him on Facebook or Twitter.
We're back with another week here at Mousa and with that, also comes the dreaded Monday. I know this is quite a late post and I sincerely apologise for that, but these damn exams have got me booked! Anyways, here's another set of addicting tunes to brighten up your Monday - well, what's left of it and for the rest of your week!
Today we've got a QUALITY remix of Boyfriend by Dada Life, Mayer Hawthorne, a beautiful new tune from Florence + The Machine and more!

In case any of you haven't heard the word, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike were meant to perform in the Philippines this upcoming Thursday. Unfortunately, Dimitri Vegas has been stricken with sinusitis, which means air travel is not permitted for the next few weeks. We wish you the get well soon, Dimitri Vegas!
But on to the good news, Chicane will be taking over the decks this Thursday (May 24 2012) at Republiq Club, Resorts World, performing on a rare solo DJ/laptop set.
I've seen Chicane in the past, and he certainly knows how to put on a good show. He usually performs with him on the decks, alongside with a live band. To hear that he will be performing on a solo set just excites me! Chicane is not an event to miss out out, so secure your tickets ASAP!
To keep you guys going, here's a remix of Chicane's most famous single, Saltwater. After 12 years of its release, it still remains as strong as it is. And with EDM and trance evolving, probably stronger than it ever has before. Here's S.H.A.Y.'s take on Saltwater!

Since 2005, Eric Prydz has been meaning to release an artists album. It was originally meant to be released in 2009, but had to cancel the release because of complications with Ministry of Sound.
But at this age, 2012, Prydz has decided to make this a Pryda album. Pryda is known to be Eric Prydz' alias and dance label. The album is due to release this Monday (May 21 2012), and I have never been so excited!
The album consists of unreleased productions from Pryda, as well as tracks mixed and synchronized by Eric himself.
Pryda has reached unbelievable heights, and this may just well be a new chapter to Eric Prydz's career.
Here's the teaser for his upcoming album.
And in case you guys haven't heard yet, here's a single by yours truly.

Welcome back to that time of the week again! Since it's the last weekend of summer for many, and the beginning for others, it would've meant that last night might've been the last time to celebrate, for many occasions: going back to school, last Friday of the summer, or maybe even the first Friday of the summer. Or maybe some of you will be off to different continents, and it would be awhile until you'll be back to your homebase. Whatever the reason may have been, we hope you enjoyed your night of drinks, conversations, and good company. Now is the time to rest up, hydrate, and ease in.
This week on Hangover Saturday, I will be throwing in some personal favourites, old and new alike. I will be revisiting tracks from last years' summer soundtrack, as well as a few I've been listening to recently. But on the spotlight, is Breakbot's latest b-side from an upcoming single. He's also announced his upcoming album release, By Your Side.
French House artist Breakbot, also known as Thibaut Berland, is due to release his latest album, By Your Side, sometime this September! Berland has never cease to amaze me with every track he releases. I can clearly remember when he first released Baby I'm Yours two years ago, and it certainly gave me the good feel vibe.
He has released his latest b-side, around a month ago on Soundcloud, as well as their official announcement for their upcoming album. Get at this track, a free download via Soundcloud is included! [CLICK HERE]
