So now that Ultra is done, there are few sets that you guys have to check out. Overall this weekend was amazing, even if you were streaming online. All three days were amazing. DJs dropped new songs that they are gonna release this year, and some dope remixes and collabs. Even a little rain could not stop Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren, and Deadmau5 from killing there sets on the second day. Afrojack dropped a new song with Snoop Dogg, that is more trap than his regular electro songs. The future of EDM, Martin Garrix, absolutely destroyed his set. It is a good sign of where the industry is going in the future. Diplo and Skrillex did a set together which was amazing. They combined a bit of trap, moombahton and obliviously dubstep. To end the weekend off, Hardwell, the number 1 dj, broke Ultra record with over 250,000 people tuning into his live stream. This year, trap was the new genre everyone is getting into, with loads of djs, dropping some trap breakdowns in their sets. The line-ups were superb, with so many headliner djs.
There is a YouTube channel that has uploaded some sets and you can check it out here.
Alright Muzik is created to expose all different types of music that sound dope. Anything from genres of Electronic Dance Music to Jazz to Hip-Hop, and even international music that sounds alright, will be posted here.

TST & twoloud – Drop It Like This (Original Mix)
Its here!! After the preview dropped, many djs have supported it and fans are loving it. This is a minimal electro track is different from every top track on Beatport right now. It does not have a huge build up and a crazy drop, and rather it has a nice rhythm. Some people wonder, is this the way the formula will be, leading into summer?
TST, Tiesto, and twoloud have produced an Alright track just in time for Ultra Miami. Make sure to check it out!!!
Trap Tuesdays (Free Downloads)
Free downloads this week for all tracks!!
This track is no different than most of UZ's track, solid drops and heavy track overall with nice percussions.
\
A nice remix by ARYAY of Drake's Trophies. The drop could have been better like Steezefield's remix. (Also free download) But, overall this remix is Alright.
This song by SPOL has an international feel to it. More Arabic, to be exact. With all the high notes, its a good pick for a Trap Tuesday playlist, or any other playlist.
