CanTunes Tuesday: "Lost You" - Zeds Dead ft. Twin Shadow & D'Angelo Lacy

Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to talk to you about a man named Zedd.


His music was of the EDM variety, and he scored big in 2013 and 2014 with songs such as "Clarity" and "Break Free". But now I have just heard the news that Zedd has died. Rest in peace to...

Wait... wait. That's just an electronic duo's name?


Okay, phew! Well, let's take a look at these guys, then!

Zeds Dead are an electronic music duo from Canada, their name referencing a scene from Pulp Fiction. Whatever. How does their music sound?

Well, they certainly sound more interesting than a lot of dance music nowadays. Listening to quite a few of their songs, they seem to change it up every time, creating a different mood with different sounds. That's something you actually rarely see in popular dance music these days. Think about it: Calvin Harris has essentially been playing the same song over and over again, I think David Guetta's only got three buttons on his machine, and even Zedd seems to stick to the same kind of sound every time. These guys, by comparison, are trailblazers. Always exciting, and always thinking inventively. And that's not even talking about this weird-ass video. I mean, it's cool, but it's also really freakin' weird.

Oh well. It's still a great song, and a great artist, melting faces and all.
