THE CHAINSMOKERS - KANYE

The Chainsmokers continue to come out with hit after hit. Their latest single, titled "Kanye", debuted today on Buzzfeed and Alex Pall explained that "We look at the word Kanye as an adjective. The song is about what it means to be like Kanye. It's just about owning it no matter what you're doing." The track is available exclusively through Buzzfeed which you can check out HERE.

#SELFIE - BOTNEK REMIX

You thought that #SELFIE was gone? Wrong. Botnek's trap remix revives the 21st century anthem, though his take is a little darker. Check it out below and get it on Beatport.

JOSE GONZALEZ - STEP OUT (THE CHAINSMOKERS REMIX)

I've said it before and I'll say it again, The Chainsmokers can do no wrong. Just released on their Soundcloud is a a deep remix from Jose Gonzalez . The new track is a long way from their bouncy bass-heavy #SELFIE that they are known for. If you are looking for a soulful house groove, check out the track below.

ARTIST HIGHLIGHT - THE CHAINSMOKERS

You would think that The Chainsmokers would be getting a lot more attention after the rampant success of #SELFIE, but it seems that they are still relatively unknown. These guys have been putting together some awesome remixes of tracks from everyone from Ellie Goulding, to Wanted, to the Goo Goo Dolls. The duo are proof that all you need is one break out track to get noticed as #SELFIE caught the attention of two labels. The Chainsmokers have signed a publishing contract with Sony/ATV and a record deal with Republic Records, with each deal estimated to be about one million dollars. They've got great stuff you can hear below.

I have yet to find anything of theirs I don't like so check them out on Soundcloud.
