John Bull & The Bandits - Going Under Cover (Flaurése Leis Remix) [Eton Messy Records Free Download]

Eton Messy is back, and presenting just another example of the great sound coming out of London, and another case of finding budding producers making quality tunes. According to their description, "Flaurése Leis has been quietly preparing several remixes along with plans for a debut EP", so keep an eye on this up-and coming producer for more work down the line.

With his remix of John Bull & The Bandits' Going Under Cover, Flaurése Leis brings a smooth and summery house feel to the indie rock original. Much of the main vocals remain, though there has also been a bit of creative vocal slicing and looping. The end result is a really nice laid back vocal house track for any of your summer activities, and on offer as a free download.

This is the 20th release in Eton Messy's Free Download series, so if you are just getting on board, make sure to check out the playlist linked for a ton of great free music.  While you're over at Soundcloud, make sure to follow Flaurése Leis as well, as there is more music coming from him likely in short order.

Felon - Closer

Felon, a crew of three London producers, have only been around for a little over a year, but have blown up over this relatively short span of time.  Felon's tracks are really well done, so it's no surprise that they are now getting attention from major labels such as Ultra Music. From really cool remixes to very polished originals, Felon's material is rock solid from start to finish.  If you don't believe me, just head back to their Soundcloud and see for yourself. Their first single that was released was Isla, and one of my favourites that was also picked up by Ultra is Colour.

Felon is back again with a new track set for dancefloors and beachside sets the world over, straddling a line between deeper tech house and garage, and the summery vibes of tropical house.  Let yourself G a little closer, and have a listen for yourself below.  You won't be disappointed.  Then hit the download button at the top right hand side of the embedded player, as Felon and Ultra have released this as a completely free download.

Don't forget to check their Soundcloud page for more past heat.

The Golden Boy - The Promise [Eton Messy Records]

Once again, Eton Messy is hitting the mark on another upcoming release.  I've been listening to The Golden Boy for quite a while, and I know Eton Messy has been supporting his work for a long time too, having launched their free downloads series with one of his tracks "Oh My Gosh". Putting out a Golden Boy release on the Eton Messy Records label makes a lot of sense.

The Promise is a deep house roller with an emotional vocal.  This is layered on top of a nice semi subtle bassline that is light enough to fit in an easy listening session at home, but hits hard enough to be just as at home on any dance floor. All of this is topped off with accent keys providing a little more interest in the higher frequency range. All together, it makes for a great and catchy house track, which is unsurprising, given the solid history of both the producer and the label.

The Promise will be getting a full release on April 12th.  Until then, stream it from Eton Messy's Soundcloud to your heart's content.

JackLNDN - Don't Forget

This JackLNDN track was released for free download back in late November, but it has been in rotation in my listening playlists ever since.  This one is a bit more progressive than his typical productions, but the lack of previous production in this style does not seem to have created any issues at all - this is a great house track with some real proggy elements.

This track has such a wide range of appeal - if you're a house head, if you enjoy epic trance breakdowns and buildups, or if you're really into progressive house, this has aspects of all of these styles, wrapped up neatly into a free download.  Actually, Jack LNDN has a fairly large body of work all available for free, so head over to his Soundcloud page and start downloading!
