Breathe Carolina – Oh So Hard EP – Part 2

The American duo Breathe Carolina is back on Spinnin’ with the part 2 of their “Oh So Hard” EP series! “Oh So Hard EP – Part 2” presents a similar structure to that of “Part 1″ – 4 tracks, 4 collabs with interesting talents (instead of 3), a strong presence of big room sounds and an ‘out of the box’ song (this time with Tynan).

Compared to the previous EP, “Oh So Hard – Part 2″ presents a much more aggressive vibe. The songs are enjoyable and interesting, and we are glad to declare that it’s definitely another successful addition to the already huge Breathe Carolina discography!

1. Breathe Carolina & Wasback – Blast Off

90\100

The collab with the super talented Wasback (youngest Italian artist ever to be signed on Spinnin’) gained our appreciation with a balanced banger, “Blastoff”! This big room collaboration is delightfully catchy and powerful, and it easily became our favourite song of the EP! “Blastoff” surprises the listener with an energetic lead, which follows a hypnotic and bouncy melody during the explosive drop. A perfect track for clubs and festivals with electric energy and a vibrant break. “Blastoff” has that energy and personality that will really set the parties on fire. Great work by the two artists!

2. Breathe Carolina & TYNAN ft. Crichy Crich – Fuck It Up

84\100

The “out of the box” participant is a brutal hard trap collaboration with the American producer TYNAN. He is renowned for his aggressive trap sound, and, as predicted, “Fuck It Up” isn’t a calm production. The tune impressed us not only with its brutality, but also for its creativity. A complex metallic drop, energetic and wild, immediately smashes the ears. Shout out to the vocal by Crichy Crich: it fits perfectly with the “rebellious” mood of “Fuck It Up”, a clever add-on!

3. Breathe Carolina & KEVU – Ravers

75\100

The third collaboration is with KEVU! The renowned Portuguese duo showed their big room skills with a strong festival banger, called “Ravers”. This song is quite enjoyable, but it doesn’t really stand out when compared to the impressive series of hits produced by the artists involved. A great drop (with mixed influences and an impressive dynamism) is partially ruined by a generic reggaeish vocal, for us. “Ravers” keeps an insane amount of catchiness and brutality, thus being a perfect festival track, but, being one of the most awaited songs of the EP, didn’t totally shine.

4. Breathe Carolina & ANG – Like That

64\100

Unfortunately, our least favourite collaboration is the one that potentially, could have been a huge success! Somehow we consider “Like That” (Breathe Carolina ft. the Mexican duo ANG), slightly disappointing. “Like That” presents itself as a catchy banger, following ANG’s signature guidelines (unique lead, explosive buildup, a large amount of background FXs), but loses part of the energy in the drop owing to its melody. From our point of view, the melody doesn’t really help in keeping the listener’s attention and focuses more on the first impression rather than the overall result. Not a bad song, but we think that ANG could have done much better.
