Progressive House | Cider Sky – We Are In Love (DVBBS & LOVEHAUS REMIX)
Posted by Mel on March 14, 2013
I have had this on repeat all night. Gentle vocals accompanied by a great beat that you can’t help but move to is what makes this such a great track.

Progressive House | Little Daylight – Overdose (The Chainsmokers Remix)
Posted by Mel on March 13, 2013
Continuing their trend of remixing indie songs, quite possibly the greatest producing duo to ever exist besides Daft Punk and pretty much everyone else, The Chainsmokers have released another classic. For those who are unaware of who these two fine gentlemen are, i’ll briefly describe them. Have you ever thought about taking a bath and then realized what a ridiculous idea that is? Or how about when you’re home alone so you use the washroom with the door open but then your dog comes in and just stares at you. That’s what The Chainsmokers are. They’re the dog that watches you pee and the bath you don’t want to have. “Why is that?” you may ask. Well that’s because they think Leighton Meester is a 6.5 and Megan Fox is a 10.
But enough about their inaccurate scale of objectifying women, they just released a new song. They say it’s by far their favorite remix they’ve done and I can see why. I’m not sure if I like it better than their classic “Around Us” remix, but it’s definitely close. It’s in my top 200 for sure. The Chainsmokers have perfected the formula that they’ve used for their previous remixes. As well as having mastered such a rare thing these days, an intro that I actually enjoy listening to, they have a knack for injecting the energy of house music into songs while keeping much of the feel of the original intact. Sit back, click play, and ponder this wonderful piece of advice I was given by the guys themselves “if you’re anything as witty as you are online, you will likely get laid before you die… 😉

Progressive House | Project 46 – No One (feat. Matthew Steeper)
Posted by Mel on March 6, 2013
I don’t need to describe the track to you, it’s by Project 46. That automatically makes it progressive gold.
Progressive House | Paris Blohm – Fire In The Sun (Feat Ilsey Juber)
Posted by Mel on March 5, 2013
It was only last week when Paris Blohm released “You Were Here” and he has already dropped another track. He has dusted off an old production and decided to give it away in celebration of hitting 10k likes on Facebook. Unlike his previous release, “Fire In The Sun” goes in a darker direction. The vocals are carried by a heavy pad and a staggered piano before climaxing into huge drop packed with punchy synths. This track is big.

Exclusive, Progressive House | Marcus Santoro – Emporium [FNT Premier]
Posted by Mel on February 28, 2013
The day I came across 17 year old Marcus Santoro was a special one. I remember it dearly. It was the last day of fall semester before finals. I was sitting at a table, waiting for my friends, when a girl from class came up to me with a twinkle in her eye, a smile on her face, and asked me something. “Do you wanna study together? I live on campus so we can go there if you want. It’ll be fun!” she said. “No, not really” I replied. She then scurried away, seemingly angry for some reason. It was at that moment I realized that I had made a huge mistake. I forgot to bring a lunch. After buying some food I went back to the table, popped open my laptop, and started browsing Soundcloud. That’s when I found his awesome bootlegs of Project 46’s “Feel The Fire” and Chris Reece’s “Life Is Amazing”. He didn’t completely change the songs, but the things he did change were quite good. His drops were some of the best I had heard in a while. I was also surprised at how clean his mixes were for such a young and seemingly inexperienced producer.
He’s had this track locked away for some time now and has allowed me to give its debut. “Emporium” is the quintessential big room track. Displaying mellow breaks, energetic builds, and powerful drops. Having recently been signed to the prestigous Neon Records, the future is looking bright for this young Australian.

Progressive House | Two Door Cinema Club – Sleep Alone (The Chainsmokers Remix)
Posted by Mel on February 25, 2013
When they’re not busy making feel good, rub yourself music, the furry browed duo of Drew Taggart and Alex Pall, also known as The Chainsmokers, spend their days walking around NYC boasting a rather impressive 17.34 inches between the two of them (whatever that means). They have somehow managed to stay off of chat roulette and Riley Steele videos (I didn’t know who she was either. I took one for the team and after a quick 20 minute search came to the conclusion that these guys are into ugly chicks) long enough to create another remix. If there’s one thing I like more than when a below average looking girl sits next to me, but less than a lot of other things, it’s their previous remix of “Around Us”. That track was met with much acclaim, earning over 100k plays on Soundcloud. Their latest remix strays from that formula a little bit. Instead of going for an uplifting, euphoric feeling, they took Two Door Cinema Club’s “Sleep Alone” and added progressive elements while keeping the indie feel intact. The result is a high energy, summertime house track. Enjoy.

Chill, Dubstep, Electronic | Crywolf & Ianborg – Oceans
Posted by Mel on February 25, 2013
Crywolf and Ianborg combine forces for their latest release. They lay soft vocals over a chilled electronic beat leading into an intricate chillstep drop. Definitely worth a listen.
