Events, Videos | TommorowWorld Releases Trailer, Tickets still on Sale
Posted by Middy on June 19, 2013
It is old news now that Tomorrowland has expanded its reaches worldwide, first to the United States and possibly in the future to other parts of the world. The festival taking place between September 27-29 in Georgia has been slowly revealing its lineup, with names like Hardwell, Axwell, A-trak, Alesso, Ferry Corsten, Jamie Jones, Tiesto, Porter Robinson & Sebastian Ingrosso set to take the stage. They have just released the trailer for the festival, drawing on footage from last years Tomorrowland and using tracks from the official ambassadors, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, including two unreleased songs. Is it just me or does the last one “WeHa”, set to be the Tomorrowland anthem, sound awfully similar to “Wakanda”? Tickets are still on sale for a much more reasonable price than the $500 you will be dropping for GA at Ultra right now, so go ahead and purchase those now.

Posted by Middy on June 10, 2013
Aussie duo, Those Usual Suspects have been in Dirty South’s crosshairs for some time. They were a part of the 2011 vocal anthem “Walking Alone” with Dirty South, as well as releasing “Burn Forever” late last year on Phazing Records. This time Dirty South adds his own small edit to their track “Blaze”, creating a monster for the summer season with its chunky bass line that is ideal for all venues. It already seen support from the likes of Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso and Alesso, and Dirty South has been playing it out for a couple months now, so expect to hear more of “Blaze” in the coming months. Release is coming soon on Phazing Records.
Progressive House | OneRepublic – Feel Again (Thomas Gold Club Mix)
Posted by Middy on April 26, 2013
Thomas Gold’s much anticipated remix for OneRepublic’s single “Feel Again” has been released and this time much to our elation, it is free. Ryan Tedder’s vocals have made OneRepublic’s tracks a popular choice for producers amateur and non to remix, most recently Alesso’s stunning remix of “If I Lose Myself“. Thomas Gold adds another outstanding remix to his arsenal, taking full advantage of Ryan Tedder’s soaring vocals while adding a chunky bass line, punchy snares, and a euphoric melody in a track that refreshingly breaks the 2 build, 2 drop mold that is seen in just about every big room dance song nowadays.

Progressive House | OneRepublic – If I Lose Myself (Alesso Remix)
Posted by Middy on April 2, 2013
Damn you Beatport, this morning in the midst of an all-nighter, I saw that this sublime track was released, but in my delirious state of excitement I was directed to the screen hated by so many saying that the track was territory restricted. I was ready to blog so hard this morning all over this song, yet I fell asleep before that restriction was lifted, so here I am just a tired and somewhat less inspired blogger trying to describe to you the magic Alesso infuses into One Republic’s latest single “If I Lose Myself”. The track, which Alesso finished his mainstage set at weekend 2 of Ultra, provides the same melodic character as his “Silenced By The Night” remix, with a euphoric synth lead that is sure to make this an early summer hit. Coming off the release “Rage“, we are starting to what life after SHM is going to be for Sebastian Ingrosso and Refune.
Progressive House | One Republic – If I Lose Myself (Marcus Santoro Remix)

There will obviously be comparisons made to Alesso’s remix of this track which is quite possibly the only downside to when a titan of a producer touches a track. Even with other great remixes, it’ll be hard to top that of a producer as skilled as Alesso. Except Alesso’s remix isn’t out yet. Marcus Santoro has put his own progressive spin on One Republic’s lead single that will be sure to keep you satisfied at least until Alesso’s drops on April 2nd.
Progressive House | Arty – Together We Are (Remixes)
Posted by Middy on March 18, 2013
With the original mix finally getting its release last month, Arty tabs some some hot in demand up and comers to remix his colossal single. Audien switches up the reverbed piano for a more synth laden approach, not straying too much from the melodic structure of the original and adding his own spin on the track. Norwegians, Carl Louis & Martin Danielle continue to display their strong progressive talents with this remix, adding their own synth line to the track, making it their own. Coming off of their epic 6 track “Metropolis Pt. II” EP, The M Machine provide a very different style of remix that you can only expect from them with a jarring low end, while still remaining true to the melody of the original.
For you purists out there, the instrumental mix is also included in this batch of remixes. Coming up next for Arty is the release of “Grand Final” on Ministry of Sound this April or May and also hopefully sometime soon the original mix of “When I See You” because Alesso butchered that track.
