• Minimal yet effective structure • Playful melody and rhythm • Well-chosen components Experimentation is the most quintessential thing in any form of art, including this very genre of Dance music. We have seen a lot of well-known heavyweights deviating from their usual style and trying out something outside their “comfort-zone“, or merely to say
A few days ago, I was checking the Spinnin’ catalogue on SoundCloud, looking for some interesting songs to review, and a little detail caught my eye. The one thing about SoundCloud that is different from Spotify is that SoundCloud displays the track durations without having to click on them. So while I was browsing, I
• Simplistic arrangements • Mixture between Techno & Electro House • Minimal, yet riveting rhythms There are many worth-mentioning artists in the scene, but Quintino is definitely one leading Dutch artist who has been hitting the dance-floor with solid works, for quite a while now. After experimenting with summer/commercial vibes in “Can’t Bring Me Down” recently, he has
• Dutch House rework of the 2011 tune • Festival Big Room influences • Lil Jon never disappoints in terms of catchiness I didn’t plan any review this week, but “Mutate 2k19” made me change my mind. It’s such an enjoyable song! I mean, it’s the kind of club banger that when the DJ plays
• Easily identifiable Mike Williams vibe • Dynamic and powerful drops • Portentous break The EDM scene is saturated these days, and one of the most important qualities of every producer is to have a recognizable signature sound without staying repetitive. As you can imagine, this is not easy at all, but some people are
• Rework of the classic “Infinity“ • Predictable breakdown • Catchy, but not THAT catchy I was genuinely intrigued by the upcoming release of Trobi, “We Can Change (Infinity)”… The funny cover and the rumors about the fact that it was a rework of the legendary “Infinity” had caught my attention… But unfortunately, I have to mark it
• Absolutely alluring • Vintage schematics • Embedded hypnotic elements The onset of 2019 has already brought along unique music with itself to talk about. Today, we will be talking about an alluring and energetic production from the leading German act Cuebrick. Named as “Wonderful Days“, the combination of cheery vocal and vibrant instrumental makes
73/100 • Psy-trance elements infused with Electro house • Curious vocal sample • A breath of freshness in the Spinnin’ catalog I’m not primarily a psy-trance listener, but “Gaia” deserved a review. This new collaboration between the psy-trance bosses and Blastoyz has some fresh elements that we must analyze with caution. Little note aside: there
33/100 • Anonymous. • Emotionless. • Lazy. Usually, we ignore songs that we don’t like, but this time you asked for it, so here we go. “How Do You Love Me” is that kind of a “love it or hate it” song. EDM fans will hate it, while the part of people who listen to
82/100 • Lovely orchestral elements • Good ethnic atmosphere • Excellent second drop What happens if a savage guy and a really technical one do a track together? Would it be a banger or a complete mess? None of these. Luckily, we can call it for its name now. And, of course, its name is
84/100 • Unexpected collaboration, refreshing single • Funky, especially because of the melody • Composed of signature styles, yet unique to good extents Surprising the audience with this unexpected collaboration, we have another dance-floor ready production to review and talk about. This, as said, is another interesting and significant team-up between two different set of
76\100 • Three great names together, super high expectations • The drop is slightly lacking dynamism • Incredible breakdown, with an interesting structure and personality “Knockout” left us with a weird flavour in our mouth (and ears), after the first listen. This huge collab between Quintino, MAKJ and Deorro, one of the greatest comebacks of
81/100 Written by our fan Jibran • Dannic changes the pace with summer vibe • Rework of the appreciated classic by Ralph Good, featuring Polina Griffith • Features the original vocal with a house groove Formerly terming himself as DJ Funkadelic, the Dutch veteran Dannic has returned in even better form. Signing contract last year
84/100 • Second team-up between these artists • Sequel to their preceding work, “DYLYSM”, reworking its formula • The alluring breakdown hints at inspiration from the renowned “Gecko” As summer is treading towards its end, there seems to be no dearth or scarcity for feelgood house productions for complementing the season. And especially this year, we got to
76\100 • Repetitive vocal, but is used in a clever and catchy way • Surprising aggressiveness from Dastic, who got us used to his chillier approaches • Interesting formula, a breath of fresh air in the future bounce world What a surprise by Dastic, a producer we had terribly underrated in the previous months. Yes,
77/100 The first Monday of June has proved the potential for this month, with numerous quality releases unveiled on the same day. Among this, we have the unexpected collaboration between the Belgium hotshot Yves V, and the eminent English trio Futuristic Polar Bears, who together have forged an interesting and melodic record, bound to get
77/100 There is hardstyle on Spinnin, and like a fast and hungry hawk, EDM Reviewer is on it! The new awesome collab between the duo LNY TNZ, Ruthless and the vocalist The Kemist amazed us… A breath of fresh (and aggressive) air for the Dutch label! Unexpectedly, the best performer here, for us, it’s The Kemist.
72/100 2018 is full of surprises: “Get Down” enters, slamming the door, into the room of unexpected collaborations. The new Spinnin’ release contains a high amount of talent, please handle it carefully! The Dutch Quintino (mainly an electro house producer but with a passion for trying new genres) and Curbi (stable boss of the Dark
75/100 Being Italian, “Bella Ciao” is a song from my culture. It represents the fight against Nazis lead by Partigiani, the movement of the resistance back in WW2. Why is there a rework on Spinnin’? And why am I not triggered by that? Well, the first reason is easy: “Bella Ciao” is trending now, thanks
78\100 You might have learned in our interview with Jack Wins that this British talent would have many surprises for his fans, and in fact, he is back with a solid release on AFTR:HRS, Tiesto’s sublabel. “Feel My Love” manages to mix elegant old-school vibes with an aggressive future house approach very well, without compromising
81/100 The renowned Dutch house duo Zonderling have unveiled another delectable and vibrant track, showcasing their unique sounds and groove yet again. Titled “Nightcall”, this release utilises the lively vocals from Kye Sones and swirls around it to provide a soundtrack you could listen to, all night.
