• A chaotic blend of Techno, Trap, and Hyperpop • Brutalist sound design • Unforgettable energy for the festival season Trust me, this unpredictable collab worth your time. KSHMR really found gold with this one. “Hellhole”, despite the scary name, is one of my favorite bangers recently. It is so intricate that I actually struggled
• Psy bass, classic Trance, dark Techno buildup • Dreamy atmosphere but still hits hard • Kinda eerie, kinda beautiful Spectral Trance, anyone? This new one from nilsix, aka Ørjan Nilsen + Mark Sixma showed up on Dreamstate and immediately caught my ear. “Ghost in the Machine” has that exact balance of weight and weirdness
• Cyberpunk-inspired but not cliché • Psy, Big Room, and cinematic vibes collide • Lights and darks, like Yin and Yang I love when the artist nails the description before I even press play. RENESIS calls this one “Beauty forged in Chaos” and honestly, that’s the perfect way to put it. “Sakura” is a stunning
When I reviewed Spirit Link‘s “Now That I’m With You“, I was anticipating his upcoming album “The Spirit Dimension“. Now that it’s here, I’ve spent considerable time with this album, and I’m excited to share my thoughts on this impressive work. “The Spirit Dimension” is a well-chosen title for this collection. It truly feels like
• Dark, underground Techno with a modern twist • Eerie vocals and distorted organ create haunting atmosphere • Fusion of styles results in a powerful festival anthem ORYMA, POLTERGST, and danzen have conjured up a “monster” of a banger with their latest collaboration, “Teufel.” Released on Spinnin’ Records, this track fearlessly ventures into underground territory,
• 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
• Retransforming the breakdown • Anti-climax in the drops • Modernistic original, futuristic remake Thinking about it now, “Giratina” was ahead of its time. Dimatik, Monik & Carroch unveiled the gem almost a decade back; a moment when Melbourne Bounce was slowly transitioning into the Vini-Vici style Psy-Trance, and was one of the first tracks
• Massive PsyTrance bassline • Tokyo Drift vibes in the break lead • Fierce and bouncy Today, there’s another beast prowling that needs your attention: “Tiger Style” is not afraid to roar and pounce when needed! Created by the Australian moniker Dixie and released in the wild by CZLR Records; the Psy-trance banger is an
• Squeaky drops, right into action • Turns into a more melodic Psy sequence • Fun & energetic, steady pacing Today’s feature is off the rocker! With the right punch of energy and good measures of adrenaline, gaming soundtrack, or gym beats— call them whatever you want— are the real underground bangers that turn playlists
• Shibui is gone, with same vocal style • Flute, violins, and Big Room leads in the mix • Hard-hitting Psy While I couldn’t admire “Hurricane”, a very predictable bouncy Psy-Big Room style that soon becomes exhausting, I feel that “Coconut” effectively attempted to take a step further. The protagonists on this stage remain the
• Turkish vocals working surprisingly well • Lots of experience behind the structure • Hard-hitting psy bassline It’s been a while since I heard from Faruk Sabanci, the Turkish producer with a great discography, especially the ones on his erstwhile label Metanoia Music. I distinctly remember “:)” and “Be The One” on the said imprint
• Distinctive parts from Bonka first, then Toneshifterz • Sturdy percussions and hypnotic vocal loop • Not a right synergy, but good results When I saw those names on Timmy Trumpet’s Sinphony, my expectations weren’t certain. Toneshifterz is a veteran in the Hardstyle scene, and Bonka has often dabbled between the boundaries of Melbourne Bounce
• Great first drop, with Future Rave finale • One of the most unnecessary vocals ever • Generic, with few interesting features Originally made known to the world in 1963 by Jorge Ben, “Mas Que Nada” was reworked by Sergio Mendez in ‘66 and later in 2006 (featuring The Black Eyed Peas). Most people will
LNY TNZ isn’t new to creating “Hard Mixes” for his tracks, often not giving an ‘FVCK’ to the traditional EDM genres and blending together various styles. Four separate versions for “Tik Tok” are… Well, a bit much, nonetheless they all are interesting for our eyes (and ears) desperate for fresh ideas to review. Spinnin’ Records
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
Before we all move into the fifth month, this end-of-the-month Friday is bringing out top names the likes of Hardwell and Ummet Ozcan. Let’s go through this week’s picks for the roundup! Hardwell – Black Magic 81/100 Tapping into his roots even further, the Breda-based heavyweight is molding together his techno and electro sounds, as
• Hammering kick enforcing a brutal aura • Exotic vibe kept intact • Higher dynamism, thanks to Dimatik’s experience When Deva guest reviewed the “IV EP” from the Dutch duo Blasterjaxx, the unmentioned vocal of Zafrir’s collaboration came as a surprise to me. If there’s a recurring detail from his catalogue, it’s that he always
• Cliffhanging rating, thanks to unsure factors • Vigorous drop, with two hard psy-kicks • SINPHONY’s near perfect genesis While deciding to share my experience for the newest release “The Prayer” with you guys, I had an evergrowing dilemma on whether to talk about this production. Thus, I moved rather slowly on this, and at
• Aggressive Psy-Trance Electro hybrid • Majestic breakdown segment • Cut-and-dried structure but energetic There would be no disagreement about Psy-Trance’s involvement in live gigs, whether it be clubs or the leading festivals! The genus has spread widely over the years, having its modest roots in the underground scene until modern reformations. Various acts indulge
