Australian duo, the Stafford Brothers, have already had their own reality TV show and now are signing to hip-hop mogul Birdman’s Cash Money Records. This isn’t the first time we have seen a cross over between electronic and hip-hop artists, as Sander Van Doorn joined Roc Nation just a few months ago. The Stafford Brothers are not wasting any time and are already collaborating with Lil Wayne and Christina Milian on “Hello.” You can listen to a preview of “Hello” past the break, and the track will be out soon on Cash Money Records.

Dirty Dutch kingpin Sidney Samson and Stealth-Records owner Roger Sanchez teamed up on their latest track, “Flashing Lights,” which was released with a remix package yesterday. After touring together in 2010 and sharing a residency at Space Ibiza, to us it’s a shock that it took so look for these two to collaborate. Regardless, “Flashing Lights” is worth the wait. Featuring a throbbing bassline and bouncy synth that leads into a bass-heavy drop, this track is perfect for either laying back at home with your headphones on or blasting through the speakers of a crowded club. The release is accompanied by a remix package that includes versions from Roger Sanchez, Sidney Samson, Kid Massive, and Stafford Brothers. Give the original a listen and check past the break to hear the remixes.
