NVOY - Girl

Annie Mac dropped this as her freebie feature last Monday, and we're happy to be seeing NVOY get some love on her Free Music Monday series. We've featured some of NVOY's previous work on the blog, and this new one is very much in line with their signature production style of house music.

While Girl may sound like some of the London duo's previous work, this one seems to have much more focus drawn to the synths than a bass heavy percussion arrangement or full on bassline - though overall NVOY vibe still remains. The production here just goes to show that house music doesn't necessarily have to follow the same formula of heavy kicks and basslines to still be great, energetic summer house music.

As the name of Annie Mac's series would imply, this is available as a free download, and you don't even have to follow or like anything - just hit the download button in the top right corner of the embedded player to grab your copy of NVOY's Girl.

Le Youth - TOUCH (JackLNDN Remix)

If this tune sounds a little bit familiar, you're right - we posted about the original by Le Youth back in January. JackLNDN has put his laid back house spin on the original with a remix as a free download that was premiered by Nest HQ. While Le Youth's original was a house heater perfect for warming up dancefloors in the late winter months, JackLNDN's remix has come at just the right time - his chilled vibes fit nicely with the summer sunshine. With Nu Disco influenced basslines along with his signature house style, this is the perfect track for sunny afternoon lounging or getting things started on a lounge patio as the sun sets.

This remix, as with much of JackLNDN's material, is available as a free download. Grab it for your summer sets, playlists or road trip jams while it's fresh.

ALOKA x Mulkern - Feel

ALOKA and Mulkern put this ultra chill collaboration out a couple months ago, and I was lucky enough to stumble across it the other day. The intro starts out with some really warm chords and ambient sounds, and slowly but surely builds into some energy through the introduction of a kick, and later some additional piano chords. By the time the vocal comes in, the track is riding high without there having been any real obvious drops - simply an easing up into the groove.

Feel has a lot of deep house and garage elements integrated, but keeps a much more chilled vibe throughout. The progression and transitions through the various sections of the track are extremely smooth and enjoyable, with each change simply melting into the next.

This is a true Mellow Monday track, and it's up for a free download.  Hit the shopping cart below to grab the mp3.
