After realizing there wasn’t any throwback article since February, it put me in quite a distasteful position, for I enjoy writing about tracks that influenced the very history of Electronic music. Well then, let me make up. This one’s dedicated to an explosive phenomenon that occured in the 2010s pop culture, yet a direct outcome
• A contemplative album theme • Sefa’s instrumentalism shines bright • Classical music meets modern ideas It’s been a moment since my previous review came out. The dance music industry seems to be on the verge of a path that is unenjoyable personally, so I barely find a song that makes me think “damn, this
After an interesting turn of events that led to celebrity rapper Kanye West being replaced by a collaborative performance from Swedish House Mafia and the Weeknd in the festival lineup held by Coachella, the much-awaited album “Paradise Again” has been finally dropped. Featuring noteworthy synergy efforts including A$AP Rocky, Connie Constance, Mapei, Seinabo Sey, and
The summer of 2017 had its own list of hits from the likes of The Chainsmokers and Zedd, including Calvin Harris with his “Funk Wav Bounces Vol.1”. Under this creative endeavor, listeners witnessed bodacious RnB grooves scattered throughout the album with noteworthy collaborators present such as Pharrell Williams, Ariana Grande, Khalid, A-Trak, John Legend, and
• Sampled “Happy Song” by Baby’s Gang • Pumping kick and energetic basses • Nice teaser for the upcoming album! On one side, I’m rather annoyed by KUNGS’s single-minded strategy of picking up 80’s classics and slightly modifying them, but from the other… They do work. Fresh off from the success of the summer’s hit
The tag of “Future Rave”, as opined by two very notable acts involved at the mainstream front, has presented us with a brand new flavor of festival music. However, the nomenclature should equally act as an umbrella term for other efforts, one such done persistently by Blinders. The STMPD signed producer has, time and time
In the back of my mind, I have always regarded that the US-based duo received far more harsh critic for “Closer”, by being called out derogative terms such as sellouts and commercial by many in the EDM community a few years back. It makes me genuinely happy to see that they have reappeared with new
Years of radio-silence later, the dance music veterans Swedish House Mafia made their hyped musical return this year. Lifting the curtains from three already well-received singles from their upcoming album “Paradise Again”, the Nordic icons have shown no signs of slacking, further announcing a global transatlantic tour that will follow in the wake of next
Yeah, we hear you. We understand how it feels giving in to the mundane nature of everyday, listening to the same music as it almost starts to feel like you’re basically running the endless treadmill that is life. But, don’t worry. We have something special to talk about. Something to spice up your routine, all
It is not hard to imagine the harsh reactions that await from some readers after this review is published out there, since the forenamed American alias has an incredibly devoted audience (especially in US) to nearly a fanatic point, and I can comprehend why: his take on Melodic Dubstep can be outer-worldly. This is why
Let’s be honest about one thing: most collaborations made nowadays are just a marketing strategy to maximize revenues. Okay, trying to make a life out of music is not bad, but the overall quality of tracks are drastically affected by these strange and fiscally motivated moves. Anyway, Pandora’s box taught us that hope is the
Hey there, welcome to second instalment of the “Weekly Roundup”! Awful good to have you here! Now, I am hoping the format is feeling all comfy for everyone running their eyes through this. Some changes will be made now and then, as it deems suitable to make this series more efficient. Alright, that being said,
We’re already getting into the sixth month of the year, and thus ready to look forward for the next fifty percent of the year left. What are some observations that are worth noting about the last hundred and eighty-two something days? Here are collective two cents about it from the team members of our blog:
• The comeback of the classic Panda Eyes style… • …With updates on it. • Repeat-worthy track After what seemed an entire year, we have the opportunity to listen to “Journey Pt.II”, the anticipated sequel to Swiss musician Panda Eyes’ first part. I decided to review one of them randomly, however you have my word
Dear bass fans, the anticipated day has arrived. Porter Robinson’s most and long-awaited album “Nurture” has arrived. For the last few months, we had the opportunity to enjoy his latest creations such as “Something Comforting” or “Musician”, tracks that easily reached the quality of what we are expecting in comparison to his other iconic LPs,
Out of all the comments that our fans left about “Harmonica Andromeda” (from here on denoted as HA), one in particular impressed me the most, stating “KSHMR created an album knowing that its songs won’t be played live (in the upcoming months)”. That’s the key for comprehending this LP, a compilation that brings forth a
• Funky as it gets! • Ranging from four-on-four beats to graceful compositions • A delectable deference to Disco and its newer junctions Riding the new wave of re-integration of Funk in mainstream electronic and pop, British hotshot SG Lewis is pioneering a signature sound unfailingly recognizable; having its enrapturing foundations in center of Disco.
• Sweet, delicate composition • Synergy between Future Bass and Melodic Dubstep • An album is on the way! My first contact with Xavi was on the latest “Advent”, a small recompilation of tracks created by various underrated names and his tune “Breaking Your Void” captivated me. Coincidentally, he is also happening to release an
Being on a constant routine of talking about singles has taken some toll on me, as I severely miss the distinctive nature of well-executed compilations. Every year there are strong contenders which restore my faith in the belief that albums are not becoming a rarer breed in the Dance spectrum. There is one to be
During idleness a few days ago, my mind struck up a question which made me genuinely inquisitive. The contemporary Electronic music scene has been blessed with diversity of gifted musicians, yet albums have become less frequent. And with this write-up, I hope to show my opinion about the situation. First of all, with some g̶r̶e̶e̶d̶y̶
A certain discontentment came for me. I have had many doubts and speculations about this project by Bassjackers, the first album from the eminent duo, released earlier Friday. A classic slideshow for “The Biggest” is what I was going to arrange for, reviewing it track by track, but my thoughts were becoming predictably repetitive. So,
