• Finally, the trio is working together • Predictable structure • Energetic but lacks a unique twist There is something magical in the way W&W and KEVU conjured to devise a powerful banger; leaving me impressed even after so many years of listening to the same Big Room sounds. Their recent association “Incoming”, released on
• Bad? No, just… Generic • The usual recipe • No traces of R3HAB It is distressing to give such a low score to W&W, who are doing great endeavors in the Happy Hardcore scene and running their label excellently, but I am tired of these releases always following the same formula. “Million Places” comes
• Generic Big Room structure • Apparently the artists didn’t put so much effort in promotions… • Unnecessary existence I can smell the desire of gaining easy streams with the fewest effort possible just by looking at the names, which should be impressive… In theory. W&W, Timmy Trumpet and R3HAB joined forces AGAIN for Tomorrowland
• Three separate drops • W&W melody on an SZP structure • Not the smoothest experience, but lots of fun Alright, I was waiting for this team-up to occur for a long time, as Sub Zero Project is among my favorite producers in the Hardstyle scene and they have become a regular at W&W’s Rave
As exciting as the prospect of slowly entering the wintery thresholds of the fall season are, so are the various records that are coming out. For now, we have numerous tracks from familiar (and relatively reputed) names in the electronic scene. This extensive installment of the Roundup contains the latest from W&W, Miles Away, Armin
• The third record from this team-up • Pleasant vocals over well-selected sounds • Sentimental, although not beating “Ups The promising trio impressed me with the delightful “Ups & Downs” in 2019, and then resorted to delivering the watered-down “We’re Still Young“. Is the third installment to this collaboration saga any different? Let’s see. There
• Pays homage to the famous indie game • Hard-hitting drop clashing well with the vocal • Linear pattern, yet with plenty of potential I don’t know how many of you had the chance of playing the independently published game “Doki Doki Literature Club!“, but avoiding spoilers, it’s safe to remark that it was a
• Impressive structural changes on the drops • Emotional vocal unexpected, as per title • Top-tier sounds, in line with Rave Culture Ben Nicky wasn’t the name in the Rave Culture roster that caught my attention the most, which I must admit, since my preferences aren’t so greatly devoted to Trance… But the British producer
Thirty weeks! We are fast approaching the year mark since the roundups started, and the objective remains straightforward as always: to cover six notable releases from the recent days. That being said, Justin Prime, Martin Garrix, Darren Styles, and more are included in this edition! Julian Calor, Trøves – Find My Way 82/100 Breaking his
• Showtek’s familiar influences are here! • Energetic drops with a Brazilian theme • Featuring Booyah’s famous singer, Sonny Wilson Both Willem and Ward have evolved a lot since they produced Bigroom in 2013… They had experimented with genres likes Happy Hardcore, Future House, Progressive House, Trance, Trap, and we can going on for a
• Flashing début for the artists • Hard-hitting drop sequences • EMKR’s influences on the breakdown This particular release has made me a lot happier, even if the lower ratings here don’t suggest it otherwise. After following Azael and EMKR since, well, they started their production career to which I had left a couple of
• Highly awaited ID • Strongly supported by W&W • Unexpected Big Room synergy Lately, Rave Culture has expanded in the market and made remarkable progress with top-notch releases. This year, we have already seen multiple collaborations, namely Sandro Silva, Wiwek, and finally the launch of the darker and dystopian-mooded sub-label made by W&W in
• Nostalgia, with creativity • Complexities that seize attention • Darker and brutal first impression The review for “Diddy Bop” perhaps has the same statements as I am about to make on this one, however I wasn’t fully convinced about ZAXX’s renewed interest in Big Room and his capabilities to reinvent the style back then…
• The most awaited ID of 20XX Livestream is here! • A deadly combination of 3 Big Room veterans • A sort of “revenge” from the disappointment of “Raver Dome”? This is huge news for all Big Room lovers out there: “This Is Our Legacy” is finally out on Rave Culture! The collaboration consists of
In a world where live music festivals have gone extinct, reputed imprint Glow Records decided to take the risk and present a five track EP. Consisting of regulars like Wyko, Sixcap and Zanny Duko, this also hosts unheard but promising names like D2J, SE3K and LinX. Surely this compilation will please most expectations of festival
• Combination of Bigroom and Hard Trap • Most awaited ID after a year of no release news • Mashup with W&W’s most awaiting collab Here we go, another big news coming up this month of summer.

• 2014’s Zilla is now Diddy Bop • Screeching lead, a ZAXX’s signature • Long-awaited comeback on Mainstage Music – now RC No, I don’t believe that ZAXX is an opportunist. Sure, his Twitter bio stating that he’s the “BIG ROOM KING 👑” is just sliiiiightly inappropriate, but we are reviewing music here, let’s get
• Native American chant, on a loop • Psy elements in the first drop and breakdown • Darker atmosphere “Rave Tribe” has got me excited plenty, which happens to be a Big Room Trance production from the up and coming Kaotix, excluding room for potential development in a genre that has stuck to specific boundaries
• Unexpected collaboration • Bringing out 2021’s version of Cannonball • Giving out new tutorial of making Bigroom track Both Justin Prime and Husman have reserved themselves as my favourite artists for many reasons. Especially, with all the gems they have contributed to the Big Room scene. Both the DJs have adhered to their signature,
