LA based dance duo and certified remix aficionados,<b> Two Friends</b>, are kicking off this month with their huge original mix, 'Forever'. Out via Armada Music, the track is available to stream and download below.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Matt and Eli, aka Two Friends, have all but cemented their reputation as some of dance music's most promising rising stars. Making huge headway last year with their viral remixes of artists like<b> Tori Kelly</b>, Alesso, and <b>The Chainsmokers</b>, the duo soon were hitting the top spot on Hype Machine generating a sizeable fan base in the process.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Despite releasing a slew of chart topping remixes, <b><i>"Forever"</i></b> serves as Two Friends' first original track in over a year. Brimming with vibrant piano driven chord sequences, the record radiates their distinct brand of Soul House, showcasing Matt and Eli's ability to effortlessly transition between smash hit remixes and breathtaking original productions. Featuring a refreshing pop-infused melody and the majestic vocals of Los Angeles newcomer ktpearl, Two Friends have created a club-ready anthem that will undoubtedly be riding the airwaves in the coming weeks. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
While "Forever" is their first original release in over a year, the track represents their third effort of 2016, having previously dropped remixes for the Pegboard Nerds and Shaun Frank. With more original productions in the pipelines and performance dates soon to be announced, the future looks very bright for these two unstoppable friends.<br />

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When in a single year you’ve penned and produced for the likes of <b>Madonna</b> (‘Joan of Arc’, ‘Iconic’, ‘Graffiti Heart’), <b>Chris Brown</b> (‘No Filter’) and UK Supergroup Take That (‘Will You Be There For Me’), and remixed for <a href="http://www.thinkinelectronic.com/2015/10/no-sleeep-with-jannet-jackson-j-cole.html" target="_blank">Janet Jackson</a>, Sia and Fergie, you might think it’s about time to take a pop at the music world under your own name.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yet that’s always been the plan for LA-based AFSHeeN, and after two years as one of the hottest names on the industry hit list, this rising artist is finally prepared to reveal his own electronic-orientated project. The first in a collection of records set for release in 2016, debut single ‘Let Me Down Slow’ is streaming now on Spotify via <b>Dirty Soul Records</b> (Be Yourself Music).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A delicate slice of heart-breaking synth-pop,<b> AFSHeeN</b> crafts an ethereal cut that gently balances vocals against padded pianos, muted percussion and dreamy chord progressions, his lines weaving in and out of each other in syncopated unison. Seamlessly balancing the melancholic top line with a minimal yet punchy beat, the end product is a hauntingly beautiful track, suitable for any discerning playlist.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>‘When I work with other artists, my role is to help bring their vision to life, and do so with a mentality that ‘Song is king’. But I learned early on that as freeing as electronic music can be, it can also be very limiting when trying to serve the song. For my own project, I strived for years to find the perfect balance between songs I write, and my love of old-school and deep electronic elements.”</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With more original music and A-list collaborations to come as 2016 unfolds, the future looks incredibly bright for this already much-lauded new talent. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">Münk is the brainchild of <b>C</b></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><b>ONTRXST</b> a creative startup collective that thrives off creating unique experiences of distinction</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: inherit;">. Their debut event </span><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><b>Münk Culture</b> was introduced to the world last year and is the amalgamation of four elements <i>bass, social, culture and style</i>. Their <a href="http://www.thinkinelectronic.com/2016/02/contrxst-brings-you-second-edition-of.html" target="_blank">second event</a> promised to be an escape from the ordinary, an escape into a world unlike anything before. With that said we had to find out if it was true or not. On Saturday  06 February 2016, we braced the horrid Johannesburg rain to attended the second edition of Münk Culture held at one of Johannesburg most loved party venues Carfax. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The line up brought partygoers the bass element, a true experience into the future of music. The social element was created by building an environment welcoming of all diversities and encouraging social interaction with other party goers. The element of culture came from encouraging change and providing a space for individuals to open their minds to new ideas.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">  </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Celebrating new trends and welcoming </span>forward-thinking<span style="font-family: inherit;"> style makes up the final element, style in Münk Culture.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">The lineup featured acts such as <b><a href="http://www.thinkinelectronic.com/2014/07/rikay-shows-us-his-deeper-side.html" target="_blank">Rikay</a>, Trancemicsoul, Niskerone, Mooi, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Metro Ticket</b> and <b>Kollective Kulture</b> amongst others.</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">Looking at the lineup </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">o</span><span style="font-family: inherit;">ne would have thought that Münk would draw the older more refined crowd. This was however not the crowd that was there to party, it was rammed with young ones who had just received their rights of </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">passage</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> into partying. Okay maybe not, but you get our drift. This was a surprise as we would have thought the lineup would have </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">deterred</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> the kids of today who come across being ignorant with regard to music styles.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The venue was packed to capacity and home to two dance floors. The main </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">dance-floor</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> was built into a little </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">oasis</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> from LED </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">panels</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> and homed the entertainers for the night. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">The night progressed from the hi's and lo’s of techno all the way to deep house, future bass and trap. Each DJ </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">brought</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> their own sound and the night was a pivotal moment in music education for the younger generation and for some hardcore one genre lovers.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We salute Münk for giving the up and coming DJs a chance to showcase their skills. We also need to give them points for picking a lineup which tapped out from the ordinary sound that everyone has come to love,"bigroom! Aside for the mishaps at the doors, the night was nothing short of superb. The music was the right amount of “underground” and the crowd welcomed it with open arms. The production from stage design to the sound system was up to the level of best.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The creators of Münk Culture broke all restrictions, stepped up and<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> created a</span><span style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">  </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">different kind of experience, </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">a festival vibe only in a club</span><span style="font-family: inherit;">. It is without a doubt that they have set a new standard for events in South Africa. </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">It was the illest event we've </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">attended</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> in a while, and</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> we can’t wait for the next Münk Culture! But for now, we will leave partying to the young ones. ;)</span></div>

Something we recommend you do is to just randomly let your Soundcloud play tracks. It's amazing what you might find. Uncovering unknown talent and spreading their music is something that gives us immense pleasure. We randomly stumbled upon this guy named Ben Maxwell. The lad is out of the San Fransisco and is moving waves in the Future Bass / Trap scene. After giving <b>Dillon Francis</b> Bruk Bruk his own special treatment his popularity rose.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Secrets</b> is his own production a unique bass filled sweet trap number. The high pitched vocal chops add depth to the track. Ben Maxwell is bringing a fresh happy vibe to Future Bass and we are excited to see what the future holds for him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Secrets is yours to have for free.</div>
