After more than a decade of dedication to the genre, BIJOU has announced his final EP. But fear not, this isn’t the end of a career; it’s simply a moment to reflect on and celebrate his consolidated G-House style before transitioning to a new, brighter vibe. I recently immersed myself in “Lights Out,” and what
This will be more of a story than a review, as I had quite the confusion when investigating it. So, let’s start with our main protagonist: Blasterjaxx. Last week, I received a track from Waves_On_Waves and Blasterjaxx titled “Double Lives“, released on Spotify a few days back. Curious, I listened to it and heard the
• A mix between orchestral and trap • Delicate, smooth vocal performance • Unexpected aggressiveness in the drop Oni Nillsen remains a near-mystical figure for me. Except for his first name, which is Nick, there is not much information about him, at least on the internet bubble. No bio, no press release to expand about
• A future rave track with melodic essence • Charming vocal delivery • Summer midtempo twist in the build-up TurnItUp Muzik often times releases compelling releases, and if one is willing to dig deeper in their catalog, they will strike upon gold. I am talking about phenomenal records such as “Psyche” by Blackcode, Arsen and
Yes, prepare yourself. Our rare sigil of approval is going to stamp upon Justin Prime’s nascent label, NEXCHAPTER (including its sublabel Future NEX). That’s pretty much fun considering the Dutch producer has rarely convinced me in recent years, before the “reborn” thanks to Rave Culture’s initiatives. When met by the announcement of the commence of
A sagacious reader has alerted us about a rather intolerable situation (thank you, A.!): it seems like the latest Revealed Recordings release from Tony Junior – Dat Heb Jij Gedaan (Hardstyle Edit) is clearly inspired by a free Hardstyle FLP uploaded by the user known as riesieboi on YouTube and SoundCloud on December of 2021.
So, Quartzo has slowly lost its mantle of being one of the most influential labels in the Festival EDM niche on SoundCloud, having published hundreds of releases. Nowadays, it has channeled itself into BLVCKBØX. At first, this was a textbook “Dark-themed” sub-label, although now it is the only active part remaining under the once-thriving network.
• Melodic Dubstep at its finest • Warmer tones wrapped in a satisfying atmosphere • That drop! After receiving this song as a submission over sixty days ago, I did something unusual: scribbling down my thoughts instead of postponing them to a full review that I would write 2-3 days before posting. Yet, even after
• Heartfelt vocal presence • Energetic old-school drop • Promising début in Radar! Among various new talents, Waxel happens to be a distinctive personality that caught my eye some weeks ago. He happened to share his releases in our Discord community for a while now, and after listening to those, I can say that he
• Sticks to the essentials • SEVENN-ish pattern, focused on low-pitched vocal melody • Entertaining experimentation It’s been a while since I wanted to talk about Vion Konger, a blooming talent formerly discovered by Dannic some years ago (in fact there are some slight similarities in their styles). Well if you happen to be curious
When it comes to the most elegant hosted scams in music industry, none can ever trump or second the deceitful Fyre Festival scam. It resurfaced again previous year after multiple documentaries on Hulu and Netflix were unveiled, elaborating on the “event that never happened” and the brainchild behind it: Billy McFarland. After the barrage of
Perusing my way through the social-media world we know as Twitter, I stumbled on an article about Spotify and the music they published last year. This includes not only Dance music, but Pop, Rock, Hip-hop and every other.. and this research was done solely through the statistics available about the Spotify database. The shocking outcome
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
• Spotify-compatible structure, extremely predictable • Sincerely impressed by the passionate vocal • Monotonous release with the usual artificial personality I’ve always been openly against the marketing strategy employed by “artists” like R3HAB and MOTi, releasing generic tunes or remixes every week to maximize their presence on Spotify and consequently, their revenues. This uncalled-for methodology
