• Cultural fusion in Dubstep • Short, intense, and impactful • One buildup, One drop Soltan is one of the most intriguing names in the Dubstep scene right now. I got hooked on his Instagram tutorials, where he breaks down the “behind the scenes” of his tracks. You can feel his passion for the details
• Natural feeling, very underground vibe • Didn’t notice Lucas & Steve • Top-notch vocal and atmosphere For this review, I must apologize for my ignorance on the matter, since I’m not a player of the game Zenless Zone Zero. I see that its studio, MiHoYo, has gathered impressive results with its HoYoverse series of
• Melodic Future Bass with Cinematic elements • Warm, energetic vocal • Dharma’s way of exploring familiar genres It’s been a while since I’ve had the pleasure of diving into the world of Melodic Future Bass, especially within the realm of Dharma. When I first caught wind that KSHMR had handpicked a track from this
• Rework of the Nomad (and Bingo Players) hit • Not-so-predictable approach • Homage to 10 years of career “Devotion” marks a significant milestone in KSHMR‘s illustrious career as he celebrates 10 years of the project. Teaming up with 22Bullets, the duo delivers yet another stellar performance, showcasing their collective genius and creativity. The choice
• Psy elements with a wobbling melody • Hypnotic but not outstanding vocal • Hard-driving melodic pattern Let’s admit this: The ‘dark’ Psy experimental endeavor by KSHMR is that gust of fresh air that the scene needed, containing powerful energy with driving basses and top-notch vocals from gritney. “All Night” is set to make us
• Orchestral melody • Something’s missing… Violins? • Fresh spin on the drop The trend of blending classical music with EDM elements hasn’t escaped me, and I like it quite a lot: probably because of the impressive results from different perspectives. It’s the case in several Sinphony releases, starting from the compilation released a few
• Beautiful guitar chords in the drop • Sweet bassline, not too aggressive • Risk of becoming predictable, almost avoided There’s one detail that I have always appreciated in Krimsonn— he always reflects the core themes of KSHMR’s label, Dharma Worldwide. Varying between genres, he retains the focus on natural instruments such as violins, guitars,
• Excellent initial sequence • Thrilling vocal performance! • Something amiss in the drop It’s nice to see KSHMR returning to EDM after his successful Indian hip-hop album “Karam“. A producer experimenting with new sounds in a genre he has familiarity with and passion for is fun— and while I am not the target audience—
• Eccentric craftwork • Excellent breakdown atmosphere • Techy influence with the lead Together with aliases such as Will Sparks and Timmy Trumpet, Joel Fletcher is one of the most recognizable faces in the Melbourne dance scene and its bounce subgenre, which is characterized by upbeat basses and a distinct darker sound: all available in
• Ingenuity? Not that much • Better yet, a “Miracle” clone • Brutally ignored by the creators After the incredible acclaim that Calvin Harris got from “Miracle“, let’s be honest, many just capitalized on the recent interest in Eurodance and usual nostalgia for the “good old era”. It was about time other artists jumped on
• 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
• Bouncy drop, then usually Blasterjaxx stuff • Brazilian atmosphere not fully explored • Catchy vocal with lots of dynamism There are some positives. The bouncy drop and familiar Blasterjaxx style are sure to please their fans. The vocal is also catchy and dynamic. However, the potential of the Brazilian atmosphere is not fully explored,
• Re-sampling of Flo Rida’s hip-hop hit • Tropical vibe with lovely percussion work • KSHMR showcasing his sound-design expertise Not the “worst summer track” of 2022 that I have come across, but I am delighted by the new creation from KSHMR, “Anywhere’s Home“. After a couple of under-the-radar singles, the American producer has made
If mindful, you would’ve noticed that I stopped featuring tracks that are released on Dharma Worldwide in the past months, after all the positive feedback that I’ve given. That’s because… I’m not too fond of its recent selection. Their formula was simple and lethal: to procure new talents, possibly with an ethnic sound, and give
Instead of penning a detailed account of the awaited “Paradise Again”, I would rather like focus on the overall state of EDM albums as of late. Usually, there aren’t as many worth mentioning as most producers have shifted towards singles or EPs, yet the combination of an extended pandemic, hiatuses and comebacks, and coincidences bring
The week of ADE is upon us, and despite the concerns of it getting postponed, multiple events are happening. With a hectic schedule heading for the DJs after their long hiatuses, this weekend has also found itself packed with a myriad of releases from Jaxx & Vega, Martin Garrix, KSHMR and more. Let’s get into
Trivia of the week – Unbeknownst to most, Eric Prydz was a former founding member of the Swedish House Mafia but later parted ways. Ever felt overwhelmed by the overload of information these days? Well, guess what. Looking at last Friday’s list, I have a similar feeling. Forget about tech overlords arm-wrestling each other for
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:
As stated a few days ago, I temporarily shifted my focus on artists and not the music entirely, since the so-called established names are having a hard time to release impressive tracks as before. Let’s talk about one of my favorite producers around: Zafrir. He reminds me of KSHMR for some specific reasons, albeit there
• Exotic flute bringing a breath of fresh air • Big Room-ish, clashing low-end • A real experiment with Future House, interesting! Can I take a moment and be brutally honest? Oh yes, it’s my article after all. Lately I have considered Thomas Gold as one of those many top honchos who are just here
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
