THUMPday Jams: Brenmar, Giraffage, Doorly, and More

It's time for our weekly roundup of new singles to get you through the hump.

THUMP helps you get through Hump Day with a round-up of the hottest singles of the week. This week features Brenmar, Giraffage, Neue Grafik, Chaka, Doorly and Diamond Version


Brenmar - "Hey Ladies" Feat. Uniique (Neana Remix) [Free Download]
This track is offensive in the kind of way like when you see something totally disturbing and gross, but can't look away because you're getting some weird schadenfreude pleasure out of it. The bass-to-the-face assault of Jersey-club-meets-dirty-grime remix comes five months after Brenmar's High End Times Vol. 1 mixtape release. All of the new edits are special, but this little number from Night Slugs' newest member Neana is that "Boom Boom Pow" the Black Eyed Peas were trying to describe back in 2009. Welcome to summer 2014. —Lauren Schwartzberg (@LaurSchwar)

R. Kelly - "Ignition" (Giraffage Remix) [Fool's Gold]
This track sounds like doin' it in the daytime. And then there's a breakdown that sounds like it should be the theme music to some Chocobo-laden Final Fantasy menu screen. And then it sounds like doin' it in the daytime again. Basically this sounds like my idea of a perfect day from back when I was in undergrad. —Jemayel Khawaja (@jemayelk)

Neue Grafik - "Belleville" [Beat X Changers]
Just caught wind of Neue Grafik—he's based in Paris and London, and his productions mix noisy drums with your neighbors having sex in a reverb chamber. Into it. —Joel Fowler (@freemagic)

Trap Door - "Chaka" [Big People Music]
It's my birthday and I'll turn up if I want to. But really, it's my birthday. Turn up. —Dylan Coburn

Bebeto - "Princesa Negra de Angola" (Doorly Remix) [Astralwerks]
If you didn't know, the electronic music legend and all-around awesome human, Norman Cook, AKA Fatboy Slim, just released a new Brazilian-themed album right in time for the World Cup. Bem Brasil translates to "very Brasil," and it featues a laundry list of stars ranging from DJ Fresh to Fedde Le Grand. Each track is some sort of rendition or reworking of popular Brazilian music from days past. House music dude Doorly put a booty-dropping spin on Bebeto Castilho's classic arrangement "Princesa Negra de Angola" and the result is a tech-house heater that will warm your underpants. —David Garber (@DLGarber)

Diamond Version - "Were You There (with Neil Tennant)" [Mute Records]
This track has been floating around for a month, but it's officially out this week as one of the standout tracks on Diamond Version's debut album CI. Neil Tennant from the Pet Shop Boys singing about Jesus while Byetone and Alva Noto flex their veteran techno muscles—what else do you want? - Michelle Lhooq (@MichelleLhooq)
