Preview, Progressive House | Bingo Staar – Dust Bowl Children (Lush & Simon Remix) [Preview]
Posted by Middy on February 9, 2014
I am a little late with this preview, but Lush & Simon flex their melodic muscles once again with Bingo Staar’s country tinged tune “Dust Bowl Children”. There is no release date yet, but stay tuned for this one that has already been supported by the biggest DJs around. Coming up, the vocal mix of “City Of Lights” is on its way and they have a new single with Tom Swoon coming soon on Ultra Music, so be on the lookout for a preview that should be uploaded any day now.
Chill, Deep House | Editors – Honesty (Dinner Date Remix)
Posted by Middy on February 9, 2014
Simon Shout’s deep house moniker, Dinner Date has been on fire since his first remix hit the interwebz and went number 1 on hype machine two separate times. He takes this 2013 tune from UK band Editors and adds his own chilled out deep house spin on it. Distorting the vocals, and reforming the percussion with some of his own, Dinner Date (probably a great one) mixes in subtle key play and guitars to create a soooooothing new tune form the Editors’ original. It’s another free download from the Miami based producer, so grab it now for your Sunday into Monday blues.

Dubstep, Progressive House | Denzal Park & Dave Winnel – The Great Valley
Posted by Middy on February 9, 2014
A trio of under rated producers from down under come together to create something that is very different for both parties. They have become known for their clubby, progressive house, and with “The Great Valley” they keep some of that sound, but go for something a little more mellow and different. They eschew the trend of big drops and go for something more soothing, with long melodic segments that almost act as though they are narrating some epic journey, only to be interrupted by a Seven Lions-esque dubstep bridge. It is great to see artists experiment outside of their comfort zone, and even better to see it work and it does here in “The Great Valley”.
Progressive House | Danzfolk – Leviathan
Posted by Middy on February 8, 2014
Back in September, I made the statement that Danzfolk could be the next big progressive house duo out of Canadian in the mold of Dzeko & Torres. They have been quiet since their debut EP back then, but are ready to break the silence with a trio of releases titled “MYTHOS” and look to prove me right. The first of the trilogy is the aptly named “Leviathan”, which is just as huge and potent as the mystical creature itself. The tune combines cinematic elements, highlighted by an epic string build, leading to powerful, melodic electro synth chords. Mythos is just beginning and buckle up because if “Leviathan” is any indication of what’s to come, we are in for a treat with the next two.

Trance | Andrew Bayer – Once Lydian
Posted by Middy on February 8, 2014
Andrew Bayer is genius. His album “If It Were You, We’d Never Leave” was my favorite full length LP from 2013, even after it was all said and done with others from Mat Zo, Feed Me, Avicii, Daft Punk and Sub Focus. He has returned to releasing club oriented singles, most recently with “Perth / Merth Mobile”. There are no weak segments of the tune, beginning with a thumping opening sequence that transitions into a magnificently crafted melody layered with big, reverbed piano that Arty uses so well. Bayer proves why he is one of the best once again with “Once Lydian”.

Progressive House | The Naked And Famous – No Way (Live City Remix)
Posted by Middy on February 8, 2014
The most livest of cities are back again with another super melodic remix, following up their previous efforts for MS MR, London Grammar & the Disco Fries in the past month or so. The Naked & Famous are one of those bands who have benefited greatly from dance music remixes, most notably Tiesto & Hardwell’s remix of “Young Blood” back in 2012. They have become stars in their own right, and Live City decides to dig in the Naked & Famous back catalog, pulling out “No Way” and adding a soothing progressive spin on the tune that gives it new life. It is another free download from the duo, so don’t hesitate to get it now.
