Electro-House | Daddy’s Groove & Cryogenix – Vertigo
Posted by Middy on March 18, 2013
Coming off of the release of “Stellar“, Italian duo Daddy’s Groove team up with Italian trio Cryogenix to release this high energy track on David Guetta led Jack Back Records. “Vertigo” uses ominous builds that lead into a simple, yet effective drop of thunderous percussion, a pounding bass line and the occasional electro stutter. This festival sized cut is yet another track that is among the many tracks we are seeing now that espouse hard hitting, percussive drops, designed to do the most damage on the biggest of stages.

Progressive House | Dzeko & Torres vs Crossways – Togi
Posted by Middy on March 18, 2013
Coming off the release of “AMP” & their “Bounced” remix, Dzeko & Torres tab fellow Toronto duo Crossways to create “Togi”, out now on Monstercat Recordings who is coming off of the successful release and still highly charted “Heartbeat” from Vicetone & Collin McLoughlin. Using a vocal sample from Led Zeppelin’s “Immigrant song” and a driving, minimal percussive drop, “Togi” sets itself up as a perfect weapon for any one of their WMC gigs. I have no idea what is going on with this video, but it is entertaining nonetheless.

Hip-Hop, Videos | Joey Bada$$ – Unorthodox (Official Music Video)
Posted by Mach on March 15, 2013
Joey Bada$$, one of the best up and coming Hip-Hop youngsters in the game… in my opinion. In a way he reminds me off Immortal Technique, minus the graphic content of his verses. The way Joey’s raps flow is a real world, real life way to drop in on a beat. He is just a young guy who knows what he wants from his music, and to some his methods may seem a bit “Unorthodox.”

Albums, Hip-Hop, Videos | Huey Mack x Mike Stud – Alive (Krewella Remix) (Prod. Judge)
Posted by LoffyG on March 12, 2013
With only two more stops remaining on his UpToNoGoodTour, Huey Mack takes a break in NY to record an all new remix of Krewella’s “Alive” with Mike Stud. They let this one go early since the video for Huey’s first single off his upcoming project, Dirty Laundry wasn’t ready yet. That video is set to drop next week so until then spin this!
Progressive House | Michael Woods – Platinum Chains
Posted by Middy on March 11, 2013
Making his return to Calvin Harris led Fly Eye Records, Michael Woods presents his first single of the year “Platinum Chains”. Michael Woods starts with fluttering key play and crescendoes into a signature big room drop you have come to expect from him in the past few years, finding a way to make good use of stutters without overdoing it. The UK producer has quietly been making tracks that have been staples of top Dj sets from several years now and “Platinum Chains” could add to that growing list.
Progressive House | Hard Rock Sofa – Rasputin
Posted by Middy on March 11, 2013
Making their return to Axwell’s Axtone Records, Russian duo Hard Rock Sofa dole out another hard hitting festival cut sure to make waves in Miami. “Rapsutin” is centered around a slow building churching low end with rapid fire percussion and an ominous interlude, leading into the percussive drop. “Rasputin” is the latest in the recent trend of hard hitting, minimal percussive tracks like “Wakanda“, “Hit It” and going back to “Epic”. It is interesting to see the direction Axtone has taken with their first two releases of the year and it will be something to watch throughout the rest of the year with Axwell striking it solo as the official SHM breakup looms in just 2 weeks.
