• Classic vocal sample from “Gonna Make You Sweat” • Holy Goof’s signature bass house is dominating • Dynamic and entertaining outcome Holy Goof is a name that’s buzzing around in the bass scene lately. After a glorious bootleg of “God’s Plan” by Drake that racked up millions of views, the British producer has brought
• Unexpected collaboration and outcome • Heavy-hitting and groovy rhythm • Follow-up of “Tung!” Sequels can be risky to pull off. Be it any kind of artist, replicating a successful formula can either get appreciated or termed as a blatant disregard for experimentation. This being said, today we have the pleasure of talking about the
• Heavy presence of Afrojack signature • Average breakdown segment • Energetic but overused structure Events and gatherings around the world are getting delayed or cancelled, one after other. Fortunately, all things digital somehow have fortunately remained unaffected with this, and the thirteenth of Friday brought forward more music to amp-up our spirits. Among the list,
Studio equipment has always been a pocket burner for musicians. Even now, so to speak, acquiring digital plugins can cost at least a whopping hundred bucks. Especially synths, which are a necessity for any electronic music producer. But seldom free plugins come to their rescue, and they resort to alternative methods. Having been first revealed
• Quality remake of the classic “House Of Justice” • Smooth blend of both different signature styles! • Summer-ish and alluring I particularly love when collaborations are balanced and not just for namesake, with both the parts involved managing to add their own styles and energy, fusing it into one splendid outcome… After having heard
• Bouncy, more aggressive than expected drop • Particularly well managed vocal loop • Happy vibes, very appreciated I’ve already reviewed a couple of future bass tracks of Ez Quew, and his future house twist has been a hell of a surprise! The Swedish producer has teamed up for the second time with Marc Brothers,
• Firebeatz solo return on Spinnin’ • Laden with 90s vibe, future house structure • Catchy vocal presence, jazzy influences What is a more welcoming thing for the awaited summer than splendid House music to accompany with? Last Friday, the Dutch duo Firebeatz have come up with a splendid 90’s influenced production on Spinnin’, titled
• New direction for Jay Hardway? • Delicate atmosphere accompanied by a more aggressive bassline • Experimental approach, mixing together different elements Jay Hardway has a knack for thinking outside the standard and often monotonous box, keeping his signature style constantly updated with new ideas and experimentations. From an earlier Big Room oriented approach, we
• 90s House arrangements • Funky and minimal schematics • Rhythmic bassline and chord stabs Some team-ups are appreciated to the point that they are done many times over. After their previous collaboration on Musical Freedom “Blackout“, Dutch powerhouses Chocolate Puma and Firebeatz have presented another joint-effort. After almost two years, both of them have
• “Money Money”? Cynical title • Inelegant and cliché composition • Pesky and monotonous vocal Yesterday, I was working on another review while listening to some new songs on YouTube. Suddenly, I heard “Money Money“, the new Bass House work by the recent alliance between Yves V and MAD M.A.C.. My review can be summarized
Firebeatz’s motives have been a mystery during this year. They founded Ignite Records on a high note, released a couple of songs in there… And then came the complete inactivity of it since June. Furthermore, they created the supergroup METAFO4R with native luminaries Dubvision, and few beloved live-sets and two promising productions later… Guess what?
A certain discontentment came for me. I have had many doubts and speculations about this project by Bassjackers, the first album from the eminent duo, released earlier Friday. A classic slideshow for “The Biggest” is what I was going to arrange for, reviewing it track by track, but my thoughts were becoming predictably repetitive. So,
• Experimentation laden • Continuous and unabridged mix • Armed to teeth with striking elements The chilly weather may have settled by this time now, and there’s nothing better than grooving to shuffling Dance music to warm-up. There is no dearth of it, but dynamic Canadian native Shaun Frank just unveiled a series of hard-hitting
• Formulaic but energetic schematics • Standout breakdown segment • Tantalizing drop, rich in dynamism and aggressiveness This year has witnessed major developments for many renowned artists, but one particular act has pushed their limits. For the Dutch heavyweights Blasterjaxx, the word “hiatus” has become absolutely anonymous. Fresh off from their latest album, which has
• Aggressive, “stabbing” drop • Catchy, hypnotic vocal segment • Bass House, trap and techno influences The Dutch imprint of Maxximize Recordings has been a constant source of fresh Electro House hits, especially from the heavyweight label-heads Blasterjaxx and other luminaries. Today, we will talk about the latest release, from none other than leading Dutch
• Vintage-infused sound • Appealing vocal performance from Little League • Modern synth-line approach Among many other popular sayings, “History repeats itself” is one which finds its way significantly present in contemporary times, especially art and music. Today we will be speaking of one such example, from none other than the acclaimed Russian House DJ/Producer Madison Mars. Christening
• 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,
I’ve always been a fan of artists having a signature sound. When people are consuming new music on Spotify playlists, there’s a chance that the listener might not even glance at their device to see who the song is by. But when they hear a song from Dropgun,
It finally happened. The abhorrent scammer, GLDN, has just released a track on Tiesto’s Spinnin’ Records sublabel, Musical Freedom alongside the Italian duo Promise Land. It’s simply unbelievable to us that he is still able to rise despite scandal after scandal. We thought we would take a moment to briefly recap some of his past
• Fabulous orchestral intro • Psytrance drop fitting unexpectedly well with the rest • Italian track of the year? I’m Italian, and by and far I have been ashamed to see what my co-nationals contribute to the EDM scene. Bots, scandals, copied tracks, scammers (I see you, GLDN), VINAI… But my country also has some
• Thundering drop • Startling combination of commercial and club-friendly parts • Dynamic and detailed production Boom!! Summer is almost here, and lots of producers are now fighting for making the prestigious “hit of the season“. Between all types of interesting (and not that interesting) and innovative (literal needles in a haystack, aha) proposals made by
