Progressive House | Above & Beyond ft. Alex Vargas – Sticky Fingers (Peter Brennan & TCUP Remix)
Posted by Middy on June 24, 2014
Sticky Fingers may be Above & Beyond’s best single since “Sun & Moon”. The original is just that good. The trio are still show stopping with their mind bending Acoustic album. In addition to the Pierce Fulton remix that just released and the Lane 8 effort that came out with the single, we have a freebee from NYC pairing Peter Brennan & TCUP. Peter Brennan & TCUP add a gritty sound to the tune, with some shaking bass to contrast the soothing melodies from A&B. Grab this one for free at the link below.

Progressive House | Angelika Vee – Turn the Lights Up (Leventina Remix)
Posted by Middy on June 12, 2014
Leventina killed it in 2011 – 2012 with tunes like “We’re Gonna Start”, “Blonds Have More Fun”, “Revolution” and “Right Or Wrong”, but that momentum fell off largely in 2013 with some lackluster, somewhat generic big room tracks. These tunes were bookended at the end of 2012 & 2013 by their totally original remix of “Blood Pressure” and then the collab with EDX “Tempest”. They return to something more original & melodic with this remix of Angelika Vee “Turn The Lights Up”.
Angelika Vee is a super talented singer / songwriter and now producer who is now sticking it out on her own, much like trance vocalist JES. It is not that big a leap for many of these singers since they write the entire top line of most songs, which includes the melody, so to produce the rest of the song, and get all of the credit, is not that big a change. Leventina give the tune of boost of energy with a well crafted, big melody that fit well with the vocals.

Progressive House | Danzfolk – Colorado Cavalry
Posted by Middy on June 12, 2014
A little learning with house music? Danzfolk do it for the kids. With their MYTHOS trilogy in the books, the duo turn their attention to events that actually happened, notably happenings south of the border (Canadian border that is). With another big, cinematic tune, the duo bring us back to 1864 and the Sandcreek Massacre, using all sorts of sounds of the day like a church bell, horses and the like to create the proper historical atmosphere. I can’t tell if this is representative of 148 Native Americans being slaughtered, but I assume this sounds waaaay better then that.

Progressive House, Videos | Axwell & Ingrosso Tease New Music At Governor’s Ball
Posted by Middy on June 9, 2014
A set for the ages, Axwell & Ingrosso closed out Governor’s Ball last night opposite a much more mellow Vampire Weekend on the main stage. The duo were fully invested in their debut performance as Axwell ? Ingrosso, putting just about every other act to shame with their production, launching streamers, confetti, intense pyro and a full on fireworks display that lasted for a few minutes. They also played 6, yes 6 new tracks and two videos have surfaced on the web for you to get a taste of what is to come. Spoiler alert, I took them. Get a good listen now because these will be big, very big.
