Electro-House | Michael Canitrot – White Escape + Blue Collision

Posted by on December 26, 2011


Michael Canitrot, the up and coming French Dj, known for his summer smash, “When You Got Love” is back again with another single, “White Escape”, just released today out on his own label Aime Music that is sure to be played by many this winter. It has a grungy synth line with a hard bass with some spacey synths in the break and good piano motif in the build. Get it on BEATPORT.

Blue Collision came out a few weeks ago and is picking up steam in popularity. Each time I listen it gets better. It has a hard electro synth undertone with a guitar riff over it and a driving bass with a sensitive piano in the build for a great contrast. Get it on BEATPORT.

Electro-House, Progressive House | Gregori Klosman, Matisse & Sadko, Nicky Romero, John De Sohn

Posted by on December 24, 2011

Merry Christmas everybody, I am feeling generous and giving you guys 4 excellent house songs. Gregori Klosman takes this song to a whole new level as it finally gets its release with smooth synth chords in the build and a great electro drop. Get it on BEATPORT.

Matisse and Sadko are yet another pair of Russian Djs who are making waves on the EDM scene. “Amulet” is a change of pace from their very piano, synthey singles, “Svenska“, and “Hi Scandinavia” and they go with a more low key, deep house type of song that shows their production capabilities and mastery of multiple styles. Their single with Arty, “Trio”, coming out next year is going to be huge, so beware of these guys in 2012. Get it on BEATPORT.

Nicky Romero takes this average song and turns it into a big electro house song by throwing in a massive electro drop. Get it on BEATPORT.

This song just has something about that makes you happy with its uplifting piano melody. It is not overly complex in its structure, but it is uplifting progressive house, with some quality vocals laid down by the vocalist Andreas Moe, from Avicii’s “Fade Into Darkness“. Get it on BEATPORT.

Dubstep | Skrillex Bangarang EP

Posted by on December 23, 2011

The long gruesome wait for new material from Skrillex is finally over. The Bangarang EP has finally released, and although it doesn’t have all the tracks most people were looking for including myself, it is better than nothing. The worst part was finding out that Summit was actually the track everyone thought was called “Breathe”. I felt that “Right On Time” was just a track to take up space, because it was just an overall terrible track in my opinion. At one point throughout the track I felt like I should be doing the Melbourne shuffle, until the BPM finally changed in the middle of the track.

Kyoto is the track that stands out to me most as the top track for this EP. Although the many versions of Ruffneck Bass were leaked well in advance of their releases, this version blew them all out of the water. Devil’s Den was something different, and Wolfgang Gartner’s style could be seen through this track. I can’t blame Skrillex for putting these tracks out seeing as he just completed over 300+ shows in a year and managed his own label, but hopefully the next EP shows us why he was nominated for five Grammy awards. Here is the link to grab it on BEATPORT.

 

DO SOMETHING

Dubstep | Jes Hudak – Wasted (Quickie Mart Remix)

Posted by on December 14, 2011

Quickie Mart dropped this track to promote his new remix EP, Space Monkey Radio. This is a sick dubstep freebie, if you ask me it should have been on the EP. Great vocals on this track, the laser synths sound so sweet in the intro. The drop happens suddenly, and its got a cool, creative, smooth vibe to it. You can grab the Space Monkey Radio EP on BEATPORT.

Dubstep, Electro, Electro-House | Avicii Levels Remixes

Posted by on December 9, 2011

This week just gets better and better. First it was the Knife Party EP, and now it’s these two gems. What else is there to say, except Skrillex and Cazzette’s remix to this song are both equally sick. Cazzette has been smashing the beatport charts lately and this is probably going to make its way to the top as well once it’s released. We have been waiting a while to get something from Skrillex, and hopefully this is just the beginning.

Electro-House | Zeds Dead – Ruckus The Jam

Posted by on December 6, 2011

Few days after Zeds Dead dropped a sweet unreleased VIP remix of their’s, the official drop of their club banger, Ruckus The Jam, is finally here. This time they went with an electro-house styled track that I would go as far to compare it to something Zedd would produce. From what I have seen in a few videos, this track bumps live. Nice seeing Zeds Dead produce somthing out of their usual comfort zone. You can grab the track here, on BEATPORT.
