Music : Different Sleep ~ Get Ahead
Might be better at night… but still… Stars are all around no matter the time.
Different Sleep - Get Ahead
Of life, of love, of yourself, of dreams, of sleep, of the waves, of tomorrow, of yesterday, of the sunlight, of the night, of now…
What? It could happen.
If anything the remix lightens this track up, making it less of an emotional tug & more of a drive-by feeling. So, I guess it depends on your mood as to which one rings your bell. Today, I vote for the original. Tomorrow, as always, things may change. Diggin’ it. Chicago-based producer Rafa Alvarez, aka Different Sleep, turns the acoustic guitar-heavy “No Honor” from New York duo Blind Benny into a smooth ambient affair. Airy, dreamy synth stabs interweave with a mellow garage-type beat while Jade’s silky, whispering vocals lure you further into the…

Such a cool & relaxing electro morning…
Different Sleep ~ Be My Center
So beautiful!
Music video done by David Dean Burkhart, feel like flying and surrounded by glitters as watching.
Some of the best chilled-out music ever. Smooth like ice beat-master.
Different Sleep- “ What Y’all Know ”
swift motion. quick feet.
The Chicago-based beatsmith, Different Sleep (aka Rafa Alvarez) goes completely wild on this one. He sent me a text message a few days ago that simply read, “I got a juke track coming…”, and now I’m sitting here a few days later, listening to this ghetto house banger over and over and over again.
Planet Mu really needs to hop on this shit…
Different Sleep - Slow Flow
Man, the title of the song says it all. And I want to find the club that plays jams like this one because it is epic.
Totally a nighttime groove, smooth as it goes down… Very nice indeed.
‘Best Of’.

One of the nice sounds throughout this track reminds me of the guy who used to do that star-watch thing from Miami… You know, this guy: jack horkheimer: star gazer
Ah, memories.
Different Sleep — “Drive Me Crazy (feat. Soleman)”
Chicago-based Rafa Alvarez and his Different Sleep project is a refreshing mix of things to take in. The track above has him sampling Drake’s “Trust Issues” jam; something most definitely worth appreciating, especially if you enjoy spinning Drake as much as I do. Right now though, you’re going to want to jump into the ambient nature of “Trust Issues” with a listen of “Drive Me Crazy” and possibly go exploring the wonderful works at the SoundCloud link below. Tyler also hints at an Absent Fever release on his blog (!).
“Purple Fox” + more is worth checking out @ Different Sleep’s SoundCloud

This sounds like candy; yes, candy has a sound… This track is Sugar Babies.
Different Sleep- ” Slow Flow “
unique pattern.
Rafa Alvarez brings us the slow flow, playing under the super dope moniker Different Sleep. The up-and-coming producer is originally from San Diego, but he is now studying Music Business at Columbia College here in Chicago. Take a look at his soundcloud and listen to some more deep jams from this post-dubstep beat wizard.
