• Maddix’s trading Big Room for Techno signature • Hypnotic breakdown, manipulative atmosphere • Huge hit or miss with the drop There was a lot of hype gathering around Maddix in the past weeks. Mysterious teasers, social pictures turning pitch-black, rumours about albums, collabs, a new label… Too much noise for a “normal release”, in
Redefining the graphical assets of an established label like Revealed Recordings is a bold and risky move. However, if done correctly, it can add some freshness to the branding and improve its social media facet. If last year’s one hit the sweet spot, the present attempt flies right past the bullseye, for us. The foremost
Last Saturday at Boothaus’ Revealed Recording Night, the renowned Dutch powerhouse label hosted a special event with many noted headliners in its roster. Lo and behold, fans were treated to a delightful surprise… Hardwell himself in person! After more than what seemed a year, the numero uno attended the label night, augmenting the hype about
Busy week, with ADE, samplers, new music, DJ Mag, and various news… But we had time to cover some (more or less disappointing) collabs for you guys. As always, we’ll be compiling a short recap of notable tracks that we didn’t have time to cover during the previous week. We hope you enjoy our selection
If I had to describe “Dreamchild” in a single sentence, I would say that “it’s the album that the industry needed“. I must be honest, I’m not a big fan of rock, but, if you use to read my articles, you know that I really appreciate innovation and risk, and “Dreamchild” is full of both
This week, we’ll be covering possibly the worst track from Hardwell, the Jonas Aden & Brooks collaboration that features some bombshell writing credits, Hexagon’s perplexing new Generation Hex EP, a promising new talent, and we’ll check in on our Spotify behemoths and Mike Williams. As always, we’ll be compiling a short recap of notable tracks
• Also known as “2010 ID” • Oldschool vibes, inspired by “Encoded” in particular • Dedicated to long-term listeners I had many ambiguities while writing this review, as this is the first 90+ with a new design, and a one from me after almost half a year. I constantly fiddled with the rating, until I decided to
• Charismatic vocal performance by David Shane • Nostalgic powerful melodies to signify the golden era aka 2015 • Happy and positive atmosphere David Shane’s rise as vocalist this year has been an ongoing trend especially in the melodic side of electronic music, progressive house to be specific, singing in songs produced by Manse, Olly
• Generically energy-driven • Dirty Dutch influences • Old-school Electro elements While the month of July has almost approached its dawn, we have yet another goliath of a collaboration unveiled this Friday. We are speaking about the latest team-up of the Dutch front-runners Hardwell and Quintino. Their joint-efforts have been successful again and again. With their annual tie-ups,
• Fresh vocal by Trevor Guthrie • Avicii’s standard formula • 2014’s summer vibes June is starting, and as fast as the temperatures start to rocket the top producers start to release poppish tracks, with the obvious intention of getting one of the most wanted prizes of the year: the “hit of the summer“. It’s
A new Revealed EP, with ten tracks, has been released on the occasion of the incoming Miami music week. We didn’t find a lot of innovation in it, but there are a couple of gems that deserve our mention. The genres are, as expected, festival big room and a few progressive house productions: it’s an
This review is in collaboration with Revealed Family! If you like their work, follow them here. Mike Williams and Hardwell, together in “I’m Not Sorry”. A collab that I’d have never expected, and the result is pretty good. Let’s begin with the track itself, which is catchy as hell, you will automatically remember the vocals and
This review is in collaboration with Revealed Family! If you like their work, follow them here. Dannic returns to Revealed with a new collaboration with the Revealed boss Hardwell. Majestic return? Not that much. Why? We’ll explain in a bit. Let’s begin with the track, which is really good. Following the steps of their second collaboration
• Unfair comparison with its predecessor • Too ambitious • Good vocal The wait is over. The long awaited “follow-up” of Apollo has been released, and I’m still as disappointed as I was when I heard it the first time at Tomorrowland 2018. Don’t hate me yet, I have my own reasons to say that. First of
33/100 • Anonymous. • Emotionless. • Lazy. Usually, we ignore songs that we don’t like, but this time you asked for it, so here we go. “How Do You Love Me” is that kind of a “love it or hate it” song. EDM fans will hate it, while the part of people who listen to
Each week we’ll be partnering with The QR Network to compile a short recap of notable tracks that we didn’t have time to cover during the previous week. We hope you enjoy our selection and if you have any tracks you’d like to see here, please feel free to use our contact form or post your suggestions in the
OVERALL:73/100 Cairo: 68/100 Nova: 71/100 I Can’t Take It: 80/100 Konichiwa: 74/100 Attack: 77/100 Today we will be talking about Dutch mega-label Revealed Recordings, as their new ADE sampler has been released over the course of few days. This review will be a short overview over each of the instrumentals, in order to avoid complexity
62/100 • Static melody in the drop • Intense breakdown, by far the best part • Doubtful vocal performance You were hoping for a good review, ain’t it? But no, I am a picky a-hole and I’m criticizing “Out Of This Town” today. Putting all jokes aside, the new Revealed release is a good move by Hardwell. VINAI,
47\100 • Uncreative, uncreativeeeeee • Outstanding vocal, not supported by the base • Catchy but completely flavourless It’s quite a boring week, without any particularly exciting release, so we went back in time instead and picked this quite important release of the last Friday. Unfortunately, we aren’t really happy about it… “Light It Up” is
A few days ago, the two times World No.1 Dutch DJ/producer Hardwell announced an indefinite hiatus from touring – to focus on family, friends and to simply relax. No deadlines, dates, interviews, no stress. Visualizza questo post su Instagram Hello world, Ever since I was a little kid I dreamed of the life I live
44\100 • Another -sigh- rework of the traditional Italian song • Tasteless festival big room result • Biggest con: the lack of identity Rejected. I closed an eye on the Alok version of “Bella Ciao“, and another one with the Steve Aoki & Marnik rework, but it’s the third time that I’m coming here explaining
