Compilation, Progressive House | Miike Snow – The Wave (Thomas Gold Remix)
Posted by Middy on May 14, 2012
The Miike Snow remixes keep on coming from big name artists and each one somehow manages to be better than the previous remix. The genius German, Thomas Gold, gives us his take on Miike Snow – The Wave with a varying snare line, Miike Snow’s signature vocals that make them so easy to remix and an addicting, uplifting melody. With the Dirty South remix of Devil’s Work already getting plenty of work in sets all over the world, expect this remix to get much of the same treatment as a summer go to for many Djs during festival season.
Thomas Gold will be mixing the 2 CD, 32 track Axtone compilation to be released May 28th. It will be largely comprised of Thomas Gold tracks because he is mixing the compilation with some exclusive bootlegs of his, including a vocal mix of his number one single “Sing2Me”. It will include new edits and remixes as well as three new original tracks from Thomas Gold, giving us even more work from his extensive studio output. Tracklist after the jump

Progressive House | Gavin Degraw – Not Over You (Leventina Club Remix)
Posted by Middy on May 13, 2012
If you have been with us since last fall you would know about the Swiss duo Leventina and their high energy house tracks. This song combines what we have scene from them over the past year with a big room progressive sound with electro chops and even dubstep interludes. This song uses the recognizable vocals from Gavin Degraw that will have a room belting out “Not Over You” with a pounding bass line, massive, driving high energy synth chords, electro chops and vocal bits. The build is well constructed with the vocal verses, a moving piano melody and varying bass line. They dropped this as a preview a while back and blew my mind then and now as a free download I give my humble thanks for this incredible track. Also check out a preview for a remix of theirs coming up this month for the 8th Note on the 21st.
Progressive House | Alesso vs Keane – Silenced By The Night (Alesso Remix)
Posted by Middy on May 11, 2012
Remixing Keane is no small task, but Alesso absolutely nailed it with this remix that I see as his follow up to the pivotal “Good Love” remix. The vocals from Keane and easy going melody provided in the original track provide the base and then Alesso goes to work changing up the rhythm of the track and adding his own melodic piano chords and smooth and steady bass line. This song is an eyes closed, hands in the air moment and will be big this summer for those euphoric, uplifting festival moments. Just close your eyes, hit play and picture it now. Image complete, now go and get the track.

Progressive House | Armin Van Buuren – We Are Here To Make Some Noise
Posted by Mach on May 9, 2012
This just made my day, Armin van Buuren is a god in my eyes and in many others. A State of Trance? Well, I am definitely feeling this State of House right now. This track is huge, Armin took the party up a notch with the heat this track packs. This will help me get through the studying for my finals, and then the party them.
Bootleg, Progressive House | Henrik B & Rudy vs. Kaskade – Leave A Light On For My Eyes (Buck Bootleg)
Posted by Mach on May 9, 2012
Having Axwell play his bootleg of ‘Save The Punk’s Heart,’ Buck has has been powering out bootlegs. A Junior at Middlebury College, this newest of Buck’s really caught my eye, he was right to think that the vocals from these two tracks are a great fit together. He was telling me how his friends love his bootlegs so much, that they expect him to make one everyday, haha. Now that is not out of reach, I think his current method is working very well for him. Below this new bootleg are a few of his older works to give you an idea of creative formula, enjoy.

Progressive House | Sander van Doorn & Mayaeni – Nothing Inside
Posted by Middy on May 7, 2012
Sander van Doorn really does not get the credit he really deserves for making consistently some of the best tracks out there. He may get hate for leaving trance behind for progressive house, but he still makes amazing music, so what does it matter what genre it is? “Nothing Inside” is his latest song with blissful vocals from Mayaeni. This emotional track uses a simple guitar riff to carry the melody with supporting synths and a steady bass line and piano and violin with the vocals to build into the euphoric drop. When Sander van Doorn played this at Sensation Belgium, I thought the heavens were opening above me, this song has that affect on you. After the jump check out Sander van Doorn’s Miami after movie featuring “Nothing Inside”.
Progressive House | Archie – Mystro
Posted by Middy on May 7, 2012
Archie has been tearing it up lately stringing together huge release after release. This one is a bit of a different direction for the young Russian, straying from his uplifting progressive sound to a harder electro track that gets after it from the first second. This track changed directions within itself with smooth progressive synth leads slowly building into a massive electro drop that will hit you like an 18 wheeler. It shows that Archie is not a one dimensional artist and put it all together in one song.
Progressive House | John Dahlback – Rebels
Posted by Middy on May 5, 2012
The above John Dahlback was released a little while ago and grows on me every time I play it. It has an old school 90s house feel to it with a modern twist, definitely a song perfect for long, sunny summer days. Get it on Beatport HERE.
John Dahlback gives us “Rebels” for free via his Facebook page and it is a quality production. With a steady bass line, stabbing grungy synths, progressive melodies with well timed stutters. Do no miss this freebee from the criminally under-rated Swede John Dahlback.
Download: John Dahlback – Rebels
Also included are the new remixes of John Dalhback’s track with Andy P “You’re In My Heart”. They provide a more progressive, uplifting feel to the remixes with added synths and more of a melodic feel. The second remix brings a little more energy and power to the plate.
