SEVEN celebrates its first anniversary and for the occasion they brought back one of their 2024 standouts, “London Boy” by CRYME, wrapped into four fresh remixes for a proper birthday treat. The original is still my go-to: ANTICALM’s vocal is gorgeous, frantic, and fits that restless rhythm perfectly. The melody runs on a clean House
• Funky base with a tech house twist • Vocal loop drills right into your head • 50-50 collab that actually works I’m very very happy about “The Devil Works Hard” for two main reasons. First, it puts Tseba in the spotlight. This guy has a signature funky house style that really deserves more attention,
• Brazilian Bass and a blend of genres • Elegant strings add unexpected sophistication • Professional production that shines in the details RadWulf continues to be one of the most interesting characters in EDM right now. The guy literally claims to be from the future, and I like the whole cyberpunk aesthetic in his trippy
When I first saw the name Tektroit Vol. 2, I had to pause. What exactly is “Tektroit”? Turns out, it’s exactly what it sounds like: a gritty, bass-heavy mix of Detroit rap and EDM, created by none other than Dehko. And with this second volume, he’s pushing the concept even further, blending street heat with
• Energetic rhythm with groovy, hypnotic vibes • Dynamic structure with evolving percussion and bass • A playful yet serious tone that grows on you The mysterious Ape Uprise has truly impressed with this banger, “Cosmic Apes,” and that’s great news because I rarely find myself reviewing Tech House. But hey, tastes change, right? This
In the fast-paced world of EDM, it’s easy to get lost in the sea of anonymous and commercial tracks. But every once in a while, an act emerges that makes you sit up and take notice. Enter House of Allegro, a dynamic duo that’s been quietly making waves in the underground scene. Their latest album,
• Interesting take on Melodic Hardstyle • Magical breakdown atmosphere • Roaring kicks brimming with energy FVCK GENRES, as the name suggests, presents unique twists on EDM genres, from Trap to Hardstyle. This aligns with the founder’s vision, LNY TNZ, a visionary known for exploring the dark areas between EDM genres with majesty. The label’s
• Rework of a rework of “Da Goodness” • Energetic G-House spin • Don Diablo really added that much-needed bounce! It’s amusing how this monumental collaboration between Major Lazer and Don Diablo is essentially a rework of “BabyLawd, DLegend – Jiggy Woogie,” which, in turn, draws inspiration from “Da Goodness” by Redman and Busta Rhymes,
• Audacious take on Tech House • Loopy vocal track • Energized lead with an old-school touch Here we are with another partnership between ARIA and BYOR, their second one after “Tonight” in 2023! Keeping an eager eye on the Australian talent ARIA and Tech House heavyweight BYOR since then, it’s more than clear that
• Energetic bassline • More of an edit • Short duration Streamed over a billion times and more, “Somebody That I Used To Know” from Gotye and Kimbra has held a niche spot of becoming tremendously successful thanks to its avant-garde composition and unforgettable vocals. Surely plenty of remixes and edits have spawned since the
• Consistent theme • Stellar vocals atop the instrumental • Catchy melodies that linger I’ve previously commended Jeriko’s work on the “Renaissancel” EP under Intensity Recordings, where he seamlessly melded modern Future Wave with the vibes of 2010. As I like to say, Jeriko delivered what I had hoped for from the return of SHM:
• Heavy bassline • Snappy arrangements • Lively vocal presence After the fans desperately begged for its release (and some delays later), Mau P finally decided to let it out: “Beats From The Underground” is a low-key, adrenaline-spiking tech house; a solid first release for 2024 from the genre phenom. Securing the Bronze Spot in
• Tchami‘s classic Future House returns • Warm vocals with intricacies in the drop • More to listen and chill out It’s not exceptional to hear such energetic endeavors from Tchami, especially when considering his recent collaborations with Malaa for the Bass House scene. This take is more old-school Future House— where the French artist
• Fast, tight groove • Tech house twist • Exciting build-ups Initiating this year with a bang, Chris Lake has surpassed expectations yet again; the tech house whiz got the official duty of remixing the Chemical Brothers— no easy task knowing their inimitable sound— and nailed it with a fantastic remix that is feisty and
As the rhythm of Tulum, Mexico, sets the stage for the forthcoming festivities, JLuna, the otherworldly techno maestro, delivers a sonic journey with two tracks – “Open Mind” and “To The Core“. These compositions, created in anticipation of Tomorrowland: Core and Day Zero in Tulum, showcase JLuna’s prowess in crafting unique soundscapes that blend terrestrial
• Remode magic here • Tribal tech house • Less elements, high energy Usually not involved in lone endeavors as usual, and when he does, Axwell usually has a gem to share. Nearly two years since his previous single, the Swedish moniker decided to give a special “remode” treatment to a new release involving Thomas
• Eh, the M1 organ lead • Great pairing with Hadar Adora’s voice • Clean setup, smooth transitions A deep house creation, “Revival” is an interesting outcome from the minds of Myles O’Neal and Hadar Adora, and deserves a special mention. A surprise came right after the first draft— turns out Myles is the son
• Playful vocals • Lean, groovy arrangements • Catchy sound design Funny? Check. A bit idiotic? Maybe. Creative and club-ready? Absolutely. That would be the gist of how we feel about the latest upload by SIZE records— who are leaning into the experimental zone even more lately— with Kommando’s “SINGER IDIOT.” That title sounds eccentric,
• Not a fan of the vocal • Explosive drop with Future Rave melodies • Exceptional work with meticulously chosen elements I hadn’t come across Wave Wave before, and, in general, Mentalo Music (my only mention was some years ago, suggesting that the label was still in its early stages of development). But it seems
• Old-school flair • Exotic vocals • Unforgettable melody, catchy and bouncy drops The house/dance scene is arguably the most influential and lucrative: While genres like Tech House and Deep House are ever so widespread with their skyrocketing popularity, No Mana has reminded us of existing niche styles that flourished in the not-so-distant past: Electro
• Catchy tech house set up • Playful sound design • Featuring the original soundtrack Yeah, we had fun with this one. Tongue-in-cheek edits/remixes are abundant, but rarely do they leave a solid impression. That is contrary to Kolter’s newest underground cut, which urged us to feature on the blog. “Radio Los Santos” is an
