• More delicate breakdown than usual • Classic CHYL drop vibes • Quality tune, well balanced From Bass House moniker CHYL, I hold great expectations especially after a series of successful releases even though initially, I had some doubts when analyzing “Let Go”, her new release with ZOOTAH on Dim Mak. Forget experimental and glitching

• BOOM vibes in the vocal loop • Lots of details towards the end • Great showcase from Tim Hox Greatly satisfying, “The Blonde One” is a Bass House release on Spinnin’ Records that might not garner the same magnitude of success equal to past hits from Mike Williams (being a wunderkind of the Dutch

• Finally something genuine! • Great synergy with the vocals • Surprising twist afterwards My expectations about R3HAB who most probably didn’t even open the project file for “Rock My Body” once, were low as always. For an artist thriving in fame lately, I was hoping for a more inventive take on the Trance classic

• Glitchy elements, experimental drops • Misleading title • Hypnotic aura with a mysterious allure Whales (aka Sex Whales) has returned to our blog with another smasher, made in cooperation with producer CURE97. Honestly, the title got me intrigued as I am an avid listener of “Big Room”. Don’t be fooled – this one is

• Captivating blend of Hardstyle, Bass House, Future Rave, and Big Room influences • Uniquely reimagined classical structure • Dynamic and ever-evolving composition I must confess, it’s truly a delight to witness such an extraordinary amalgamation in “Bring The Fire,” especially considering its release on the renowned Spinnin’ Records! Despite my personal qualms about Timmy

• Explosive drops • Distinctive Bass House lead • Catchy melody, less impactful the second time The metallic, dirty lead of “Need U” has earned my admiration as the drop struck: a concentration of energetic sounds, the climax brings with energy when it explodes! This creation from the Spanish BLAK is intriguing and immediately finalized

• Mix of liked genres • Twists in the drop • Small but considerable variations Breathe Carolina has dived into Bass House lately, as several releases such as “WIFI” or “Sick” came out on Spinnin’. I found them a bit conventional, lacking that spark of creativity that usually gets me to review something. Things are

• Sam from Moksi joined forces with Nostalgix. • The bassline is excellent and packs a punch. • The melody gets a bit repetitive. It’s quite disheartening to learn about the split of the Bass House duo Moksi, with Diego venturing into his independent project, SUMMUM. However, there’s still excitement in the air as Sam,

• Bass House infused with captivating vocal modulations • Polished bassline accompanied by impactful kicks • Breakdown showcases Cuebrick‘s unique touch Isaac Palmer‘s music is heavily influenced by Bass House, as evident in his previous releases such as “Pressure” and “Inception” (his debut on Maxximize Recordings alongside Tony Junior). His more recent track, “Can’t Remember,”

• Future House with Jungle Terror sounds • Plenty of details • Great bassline Before proceeding, here’s the premise: I am not really into the Experimental scene in the US right now, where Dubstep, Trap, and many other genres get combined in creative ways. In WLLWS, I see the influences from artists such as Moore

• A delicate rework of the original • Superb vocals • Evolution in Sik’s signature sound A gorgeous original: that should be said before praising this charming Future House remix from Siks. The French alias has a distinctive sound that’s roaring in the Bass House scene lately, racking up millions of streams and achieving significant

• Best of both artists’ style • Noisy, but funny, vocals • A great fit for Barong Family It would be fair to say that I am a great fan of this synergy between Haus of Panda and Brett Allen for two things: the very engaging vocals, and the way they blend their styles with

• Refined Progressive House structure • Standard breakdown, nice vocal • Complex yet streamlined melody After the saddening revelation about Timmy Trumpet, I wasn’t in the mood for giving space to the ‘bigshots’ who evidently have no time, talent, or interest to spare in creating genuine music for their fans. Rather, we want to promote

• Wiwek-style drums over a Tech-y bassline • Anonymous breakdown and buildup • Festival-oriented composition, mostly for mashups You know, when “Balança” was announced, my expectations weren’t set high. I am glad to say that I was pleasantly surprised by what came out of the Hardwell and VINNE teamwork, the latter being one of the

• Smacking percussions under a dirty lead • Techno influences in the buildup • Melody doesn’t catch up at first It’s been more than a year since the Israeli duo TripL made contact, a mainstay in Revealed Recordings with their Bass House creations. Turns out, they are back! “Need You” is a synergy comprising NORII

• Aurelios in the break, Chester in the drop • Influences from the Big Room Techno trend • Lovely twist in the pre-drop transition Aurelios already made a unique introduction on our blog with a catchy record on Spinnin’ Talent Pool the prior month, but “Falling” raised the bar to another level! Featuring Chester Young

• Big Room rendition of Darin • Excellent blend of DANÊL and JaySic • Intensity Recs and Glow Records blending their personas! Honestly, I wasn’t aware about “Step Up” By Darin, a Swedish artist that released this hit in 2005 (fun fact: produced by RedOne, who was recently involved with 2022 FIFA soundtrack). It has

• Subtle rework on the drop part • The first section is still intact • A fitting bassline for the peculiar vocal “Disco Pogo” from the German duo Die Atzen has always fascinated me back in the days as perhaps one of the noisiest songs to date. The dirty Electro House lead charging the whole

Today I teamed up with @edmrevnik for reviewing two of Nicky Romero’s recent releases that we found worth of attention. In the past we have criticized the lack of creativity of the Dutch producer, who decided to focus on easy, cash-grabbing Progressive tracks… Something has changed, maybe?

TikTok is back at it again. It is abundantly clear that the social media platform is dominating in terms of trendsetting new styles of music.

• East vs West • Flamboyant Indian lead over the drop • Soulful, looped-over vocal snippet After my colleague stated that he was used to eastern sounds such as these, and it would be beneficial if I gave it a try instead, I loved how baltaj crafted ethnic sounds in a Tech House structure! Mixing
