<a href="http://lwx.so/6mza">Hello Clouds Remixes on Beatport</a>

As one of our most beloved Dirtybird Players, Justin Martin travels the world week in and week out putting smiles on people's faces, always with an even bigger grin of his own. With his sophomore album, 2016's 'Hello Clouds', Justin proved that it's more than just fun and games - he's a seriously talented producer. 

His songwriting skills were on display with unique vocalists Charlotte OC, FEMME, and Lena Cullen, and his production chops were flawless on his solo tracks and collaborations with Kill Frenzy, Will Clarke, Ardalan and his brother Christian Martin.

Hello Clouds debuted at #1 on the iTunes Dance chart and Beatport's album chart, and hit #15 on Billboard's Dance/Electronic Albums Chart the week after its release; these stats are a testament to the brilliance of the album and the way its diverse sounds resonated with fans both old and new.

While it can be argued that the original album was largely for listeners, there's no doubt that the Hello Clouds remixes are squarely aimed at DJs and dance floors the world over. Justin hand-picked the twelve artists who he thought would best reinterpret his work and, as with the original album, he's knocked it out of the park here.

Fellow Dirtybird Ardalan's epic version of the title track diverges from the basement vibes of Jakwob's mix, while the Christian Martin collab 'Midnight' sees a new day courtesy of both party-starters Soul Clap and life-of-the-party Doorly.

Justin opened his Campout set with Walker & Royce's explosive mix of 'The Feels', which also gets reworked by UK hero Low Steppa, and UK also gets another representation with Redlight’s mix of “Wet Cat'

South Africa's Kyle Watson turns the moody 'Odyssey' into a peak-time monster, while Little By Little gives us both a vocal and dub mix of the equally sultry 'Rabbit Hole.' Fresh-faced producer Lenny Kiser leaves his mark on the Charlotte OC single as well. 

Rounding out the package is a bona fide jungle remix of 'Back to the Jungle' by the drum-n-bass icon DJ Marky, along with a massive remix of the same tune from the one and only Chris Lorenzo.

DB149 : Justin Martin feat. FEMME - Hello Clouds (Ardalan Remix)

We are really excited to have OMNOM back with this absolute banger of a release. It's amazing to see how much he has grown since we signed his first release back in 2016. We always predicted big things for this guy and to now see him release on the mighty Dirtybird shows just how that we were right. His Goin' Dumb EP is a testament to his playful production style, blending his bouncy 808 vibes with a general feeling of dopeness. 'Know I'm Bad' kicks off the release and it's just got tons of SWAG written all over it. We've been grooving to this one for a long time now and it is just one of those tunes that are perfect for the summer festival season. The second tune comes from a collab with Lucati, who's another producer always delivering the goods, so knowing these two producers working together the outcome was pretty certain. 'Goin' Dumb' has got somewhat of a minimal trippy vibe about it that keeps you really engaged to its progression. The track features a solid vocal from Fatt Mox, which truly adds edge to the groove. Make sure you add this release to your record box, just one of those you don't want to be without.

Just Came For The Music

What started out as a demo made for his private fan club a few months ago, "I'm Solo" has taken on a whole new meaning in recent weeks. Claude VonStroke delivers a timely in-house groover with a signature vocal for Pandemic living. The track goes along with a thematic music video shot, edited and starring Claude VonStroke by himself. The incredible art by Birdcap also drives the vibe home, where everyone is now living 24/7.

For Sam Walker and Gavin Royce, the question is the fundamental test of their studio output. Simple as it may sound, for this perfectionist pair it’s anything but. Their innate dance floor intuition, combined with years of experience behind the decks, drives them to create music that isn’t just playable — it’s irresistible.

First introduced by way of New York City's early-aughts dance music scene, Sam Walker and Gavin Royce first teamed up for a remix in 2011. The duo found early success on tastemaker labels like Crosstown Rebels, OFF Recordings, and Moda Black, scoring an Essential New Tune nod from Pete Tong with 2014’s “Sister.”  The indie dance and deep house sounds that informed Walker & Royce’s earliest work soon gave way to something different. Quirky accents and bouncy synths, previously deeper in the mix, leapt to the forefront, backed by a propulsive new energy. The success of their November 2015 “Bright Lights” remix was a clear indication that they were onto something.

In October 2017, Walker & Royce released their debut album Self Help on Dirtybird, which both showcased and expanded upon their now-signature sound. The guys enlisted numerous vocalists, including Green Velvet, Dances With White Girls, and Sophiegrophy, to make Self Help feel like a packed house party – while leaving no doubt about who was hosting.  Self Help was followed by further experimentation and growth. Sam and Gavin have collaborated with Claude Vonstroke, Ardalan, Chris Lake and VNSSA just to name a few as well as remixed Channel Tres, LP Giobbi, The Knocks, Justin Jay, Gorgon City, Mindchatter; and put out music on Relief, Black Book, HotBOi Records and more. Their Rave Grave EP was the inaugural release on Diplo’s house-focused imprint Higher Ground.  Continuing to push boundaries, they have launched their own label Rules Don’t Apply Records, with the ethos just as the name states…No Rules, just good music.

Walker & Royce have spent years honing in on their one-of-a-kind style, meticulously crafting the sounds they want their fans to hear in clubs, at festivals and in their headphones. The result is a cohesive, career-defining body of work that firmly places the duo at the forefront of dance music's future.
