82\100 One of the greatest trance productions ever was released in 1996 by the German Duo Cygnus X. “Superstring” was a “once in a lifetime” track. Born as a hard trance tune (Hard trance was a genre that was dominant in the electronic music scene in 90’s), the track got various remixes over the years,
89\100 “Powermove” can be summarized with a word: “Woah“. In the drop, very particular, this word seems to be repeated in an infinite loop, creating a hypnotic bass house atmosphere interrupted only by powerful metallic fills. I don’t know if it’s just me, but it reminds me the popular Crash meme, even if it sounds
90\100 Today I want to show you one of my favorite trap artists. He’s not properly a “new talent”, but it may be a discovery for you guys, since I rarely review trap. JayKode from Los Angeles just dropped one of his masterpieces, “Wasted”. Featuring a magnificent vocal from Marco Foster, the song is extremely
79\100 The third release of the “Hardwell & Friends EP Vol. 2” is an amazing progressive tune called “What We Need”. The Dutch producer collaborated once again with the singer Haris (already heard in “Survivor” and “Nothing Can’t Hold Us“), and the result is splendid! I was expecting “What We Need”. It was a long-awaited
81\100 Today we are back with three well-known producers! The Canadian\German duo Wanden teamed up with PL4YFIELDS from India, dropping a massive big room hit called “Retopia”. I already reviewed some tracks from those guys and I was sure to find a banger. I guessed right. Another important detail I would like to underline is
75/100 The Dutch sensation Hardwell rolled out the sequel to his first successful EP, “Hardwell and Friends Vol.2”, containing some really unique tracks. Among all, the second collaboration “Still The One” has been between the Revealed veteran Kill The Buzz and Hardwell himself. The collaborators need no introduction; both have a very distinctive name in
As you probably know, I rarely review mashups. Don’t get me wrong, I love them, but it’s really difficult because 99% of times is just a question of tastes. But, sometimes, there are mashups that are simply masterpieces. Like this one. Even if I don’t like “Opus”, ANGEMI left me speechless with this super psy-trance
80\100 This evening I want to present you something special, “Ganja Man”. Factory DJs, an interesting duo that I’m following for a while, dropped a curious electro\big room banger, which received a fabulous edit by Mountblaq. The cover immediately caught my attention. I would like to talk about it since it’s really beautiful… It’s not
85\100 Well, I must be honest now. I like “Badam”. A lot. The first time I heard it I thought “Meh, it’s the typical ethnic trap by Henry Fong, disappointed” (I don’t usually like his music)… But today I’ve listened a lot to “Badam” and I can’t stop singing by myself “badam, badaaam” like an
83\100 Today I’m proud to present a crazy future bounce track, “Elephant”! The author, the Dutch producer DOMASTIC, is one of the most promising future bounce talents out there, and I love his creativity and originality. His style is fresh, as you can immediately notice when hearing “Elephant”. The first time I heard this fabulous
87\100 It is impossible to get a return on the scene better than Madox Records one! The label just released a banger called “Nokatare”, produced by two super German producers, Moisuki and Exyt. Exyt is not a new name for me, I already reviewed his “Temple” bootleg, and Moisuki has a superb style too! I immediately
77\100 Today we present something new for EDM Reviewer, a genre that we rarely listen to: rawstyle. The renowned Dutch hardstyle producer Warface has returned just in a month to provide another engaging and uncommon track. “Welcome To Jungle” is a fast paced nail hitting track, with its distorted heavy kicks and driving synth and
76/100 The recently released hit by the English singer Dua Lipa “New Rules” has got many remixes so far… One of the most interesting is from Alphavox! He has added a big room presence to the already energetic pop track. Without compromising the groove of the original track, the Indian talent has definitively created a
78\100 I know, I know. “Without You” remixes are predictable. But those two guys made such a splendid work that I think a little review is necessary! Jordan Jay and Charlie Ray dropped a nice remix of Avicii’s hit “Without You”, and surprise: it’s future bounce! I don’t really know what amazed me in this
76\100 The Dutch duo is back with an interesting hybrid between psy and hardstyle! “By Myself” is the Mainstage Music release of the week, and once again D-Block & S-Te-Fan are dropping some hard music! The hardstyle duo is not a newcomer here, but it’s the first time that their Mainstage production shows their full
78\100 I was expecting something more from those guys, but “Showdown” is a nice tune! The new Revealed release is a wild electro banger, full of enthusiasm and aggressiveness. Maddix and Loax teamed up and showed the world what two of the most promising talents of the scene can do. The drop is pretty nice,
82\100 I’m almost tired to proclaim this, but once again: new banger out on Maxximize! “Roots” is the new Crystal Lake single, edited by the good guys Blasterjaxx. I have usually a lot of difficulties while reviewing edits, because it’s not clear who made what and how much the Dutch duo influenced the Israelian duo…
74\100 The Dutch duo Vicetone is back on Spinnin’ with a delicious future track, “Collide”. The song, featuring a splendid vocal by Rosi Golan, is one of the most enjoyable Spinnin’ releases of the month, for me. I am following those guys since the beginning, and even if they changed genre, I must admit that
78\100 “Police (You Ain’t Ready)” is a surprising track. I remember listening to a RIP preview of a set and being bored by the first drop… I wasn’t expecting anything special from “Police”. Well, surprise! The second drop is way better, a hard house experiment by Hardwell, fresh and interesting! Plus, the good vocal by Anthony
***94\100*** Basshunters are probably two of the most underrated producers I’ve ever known. I can’t really understand why their music and their creativity is not already well recognized by the public. I mean, did you ever heard someone using bagpipes as signature sound? The uses of traditional instruments in EDM is lovely for me, they
***90\100*** That’s what I call a successful duo. If you find in the title “Zack Martino and REGGIO”, be sure that the song will be spectacular. And that’s what “Against The Night” exactly is! Featuring Jonny Rose, a singer that I personally like very much, this progressive release is kinda special. In fact, being the
