• Alluring breakdown with subtle vocal presence • Unexpected and groovy drop segment • Dexterous presence of both artists in the instrumental As we have talked in this blog for many a times, collaborations including major names seldom have equal participation and passion, and more of a work done by the up and coming producers
Almost every interested music fan is bound to be synonymous with Billboard. The American entertainment mogul is not only a publisher of a magazine which came out in the fall of 1894, but their charts have defined the industry’s trend. Recently, the Electronic music department of the leading company hosted a “Favorite Dance Music Label”
Very passionate article today, I was planning something completely different, but after having read the feedbacks regarding KSHMR’s new work with LUM!X, Gabry Ponte and the singer Karra, I decided to share my two cents about the situation. I’m scared about KSHMR, who is still an “icon” for me in the EDM scene. I’ve always
• Return of the Dutch act on Spinnin’ Records after eight years • Contradictory decisions in the arrangement • Hasteful approach Every artist has their share of defining and significant moments, either it be a chord-striking performance or that one particular ground-breaking hit. And this sets a standard thereafter, which fans and critics look back
• Italo Dance mixed with Happy Hardcore elements • Vocal that works appropriately, discording partially • Hypothetically successful summer hit Being Italian, Italo Dance is a crucial part of my musical culture. In certain regions of my nation where clubs kept their foot grounded to earlier styles (almost accountable to 90 percent of the area),
• “Resurrection” follow-up with different percussions • The original version has been kept intact, almost • Not entirely fan of the snare presence After more or less seven years of waiting, I can finally pen this review. With the prototype version of the song revealing itself on platforms like SoundCloud, it seems an even older
Paris Blohm & Wasback – They Say (feat. Krigarè) Paris Blohm · Paris Blohm & Wasback – They Say (ft. Krigarè) After releasing a statement coming to terms with his position atop the progressive house game and how it conflicted with how he wanted to present himself to the world, we finally have the first
Among the many inexplicable things happening in this calamitous year are the strange predicaments, one of which has to be the recent video uploaded by the Dutch music conglomerate Spinnin’ Records. And surprise surprise, it is a fine and dandy 11-minutes-long TikTok compilation to feast our eyes upon, showcasing peachy dance moves on their latest
• Questionable and theme selection • Generic, generic, generic instrumental • Contemptible, if not apathetic Trends can be for better or worse, and they etch history in the course of their run. For music, it’s ever evolving shape and tastes makes it fascinating to observe. That being said, Dance music is now headed by multiple
In this industry, there are only few who truly nail the branding aspect. And we aren’t talking of the mundane marketing ploys (seriously, why is everyone doing giveaways recently?), but presenting an idiosyncratic image of themselves (such as our beloved Norwegian Jonas Aden), arresting audience’s attention and transforming them into their super fans! Today’s figure
• Emotionally tinged vocals • “Shy” attitude, suitable for an enormous and brave drop • Classic structure, but innovative mindset in the details Jack & James proving their mettle? Nothing unanticipated! As I have said many times before, they are an upright force in the niche of Future House, all credits due to the aggressive
• Classic Big Room structure, aggressive and energetic • Nothing new, but excellent quality: we are speaking about a master of the genre • Comeback to the “Safe Zone” for Quintino Quintino is back on Spinnin’ Records, and this time, surprise surprise… He released a Festival anthem, “Switch Back“, a follow up of “Heey Ya!”
• Dismal atmosphere • Brisk drop • Quirky sound design One of the most aesthetic things about EDM is the insane amount of subgenres that it covers. If you read my reviews often, you might have realized that I mostly talk about Progressive house, Big Room and Hardstyle, but also like to experiment with some
• Merge between EDM and Western theme • Energetic but monolithic drop • Creative soundscape Endorsement performs wonder they say, and so it did. Browsing through the New Music Friday list, I couldn’t find something to review which withheld my interest. But there it was: one of my preferred pair, Jewelz & Sparks with their
• KSHMR´s ethnic sounds fits perfectly with Brooks´ signature • Good balance between both influences • The magnificent vocal is a central point of the tune “Voices” was probably one of the most-awaited collaborations during these months, the expectations were high since KSHMR premiered it on his Tomorrowland 2019 set. Later, we discovered that the
• Delicate, magical atmosphere, suddenly broken by a brutal drop • Oldschool 2017 vibes (remember XX Files?) • Quality release, the fourth in 2020 for the Dutch duo Blasterjaxx are stable members of Big Room olympus, and today we analyze their newest banger, “Phantasia”, an oldschool production with a progressive fusion. After a couple of
• Positive first experience with Jersey Club • Eerie atmosphere in the funky breakdown • Hard-hitting unpredictable drop This is not properly trap, but rather Jersey Club. However, the French Kodat delivered such a complex hybrid of genres that I’ve picked a more generic tag. Including funky Future House vibes in the breakdown and an
• Magical, fantasy atmosphere • Quality lyrics by the talented Elle Vee • Interesting influences in the drop, mixing Declain’s essence with Future House I must admit that this release by Declain caught me by surprise. As we heard on his two other 2020 releases (“Bad Idea” and “Stuck To You“), the young producer is
A couple of days ago, we were discussing with a producer about the differences between being under a major, being independent and working with a “minor” label. Being a complex topic, we’ll develop it another day: today, we want to speak about minors, a reality that as always fascinated us! “Minor Labels” are, historically, smaller
• Brutal, hard-hitting composition • Irreverent vocal, the signature of RayRay • Unimaginable release that made me reevaluate Spinnin’ Asia I didn’t have high expectations about Spinnin’ Asia, considering its poppish future house debut release, “Antidote“. I saw it as a forced attempt in order to catch the attention of the Asian market, which is
It’s certainly disheartening, because we always had held high expectations for Dannic’s esteemed label, Fonk Recordings… But we observed increasingly incertitude about this project. Founded in 2016 by the ex-Revealed groove veteran, Fonk centres around its label-boss and similar peculiar Electro House. It’s such a specific and recognizable style that in past reviews we simply
