Progressive House | Bowts – Recur
Posted by Middy on September 19, 2014
A little something before you kick off the weekend. I hadn’t heard anything from Magnus & Timon for quite some time and lo and behold it was because they had split up and Timon is producing on his own. Not skipping a beat, Timon, now Bowts, delivers another well produced, high energy, melodic tune, filled with plenty of hands in the air moments. It is free, so make sure you grab it below.

House | Sander Van Doorn & Oliver Heldens – THIS
Posted by Middy on September 18, 2014
Fans of these two have been waiting quite some time for this one. It seems like everyone wants a piece of the Oliver Heldens brand of “future house” and he is eager to dish it out, with very little changed. It is one thing to find a signature sound, which is incredibly difficult to do unto itself, but to be able to evolve within that and expand creatively is one of the marks of a great producer. “THIS” sounds an awful like “Gecko” and you can hear some influence of Sander van Doorn, but not much. The tune comes out October 6th and will probably be another Beatport chart topping hit.
Exclusive, Pop | Premiere: Melleefresh – Apparition (Original Pop Mix)
Posted by Middy on September 18, 2014
For dance music fans, the name Mellefresh is familiar. She has most notably collabed with Deadmau5 to create Freshmau5 back in the early days of his career on tunes like “Hey Baby” and “Sex Slave”. More recently, the singer, songwriter, producer and DJ has been branching out beyond deadmau5’s twisted mind into drum n bass and tech house / minimal with Alixanderlll, part of the revered Azari & III duo. She is also an accomplished artist in her own right and is taking it out to the world with this self-produced and self-written tune “Apparition”. Melleefresh brings together the modern and the pop sensibilities of the 80s as the robotic voice clashes with the themes of love in the tune. We have the premiere for you until it is released on October 6th via Play Records, so stream away now!
Progressive House | Magic Man – Out Of Mind (Live City Remix)
Posted by Middy on September 17, 2014
Ethan of Live City told me I could just write “It’s great, download it now” for a post, but I have a bit higher standards then that. Continuing their trend of indie remixes, Live City release their officially sanctioned remix for Magic Man “Out Of Mind” for free 99. They keep much of the original feel, notably the vocals, but add a cheery melody and poignant piano to the tune. As previously stated, it is free so grab it below.

House | Botnek & 3LAU – Vikings (Bixel Boys Remix)
Posted by Middy on September 17, 2014
The Bixel Boys keep on killing it with great tunes, great marketing and the Freelife shirts that a who’s who of DJs have been sporting. With a couple of originals under their belts this summer, the duo get back to remixes, being tabbed by Dim Mak records to take on one of their biggest tunes this year “Vikings”. With its quintessential Botnek sound, “Vikings” was a smash from the get go, personified by the crowd reaction at Ultra during Jack U’s set. The Bixel Boys add their “big room underground” twist to the tune as Rob & Ian come close to Oliver Heldens, but stay far enough away to remain fresh sounding with this one.
Videos | Monstercat 3 Year Anniversary Video From Didrick
Posted by Middy on September 17, 2014
Wow, it seemed like yesterday that Monstercat was started by its founder Mike Darlington and now three years in, things are bigger and better than anyone could have imagined. The label is not just a platform for artists to release their music on, but a marketing tool to connect with thousands of eager fans worldwide. To celebrate three years, Monstercat got Swedish producer, Didrick, who you may first remember for his remix of “I Can Be The One”, to mix and mash 78 tunes from the monstercat library into one wild 3-minute piece. The visuals to go along with it are the icing on the cake as you see Didrick working a launchpad and keyboard at the same time, while a drummer, guitarist and full backing band help provide the soundtrack to an outstanding three years of Monstercat. Cheers to you guys and to many more to come. You can grab the mashup and a compilation of Monstercat’s favorite tunes on iTunes here.
Progressive House | Arias & Greg Cerrone – Foot Steps
Posted by Middy on September 16, 2014
What was thought to be a Size release for a long time has been released on Ultra Records. First premiered by Steve Angello at UMF, (hear that roar!) the massive “Foot Steps” from Arias and Greg Cerrone is finally here. The tune has parts from both artists, as Greg Cerrone channels the same melodic mastery he displayed on “Nightventure” and Arias adds his equally potent skills crafted melodies and layering. These foot steps are coming towards you and they are loud quite powerful.
