House | Curbi – Discharge
Posted by Juicebox on February 25, 2015
Believe it or not, Curbi is a 16-year-old producer who was recently signed to one of dance music’s most recognizable labels, Spinnin’ Records. After spending years making tracks and working on his production skills, the England native drew the attention of future house maestro, Oliver Heldens, who promptly premiered Curbi’s debut release, “Discharge,” on his Heldeep Radio podcast. “Discharge” has all of the elements of a great future house release – bone-rattling bass lines, deep melodies, and synth quivers. Check out the track above, and keep an eye out for the release in March.
Dubstep, Electronic, Trance | Andrew Bayer – Need Your Love / England / Detuned
Posted by Middy on August 21, 2013
One of the most musical and compositionally gifted producers in dance music now, Andrew Bayer has served up a three track EP for your ear drums and they are delighted. “If It Were You, We’d Never Leave“, remains my favorite album this year and one of the most popular selections “Need Your Love”, got a club mix to translate its beauty to the club setting, which it did without losing any of the original elegance. “England” was the gem of “Anjunabeats Volume 10“, and now we have the full copy in all of its glory. First premiered at TATW 450 in Bangalore, “Detuned” is a glitchy, dubstep track that shows departure from what we normally get from Bayer, but still remains true to his sound.
Pop | John Newman – Love Me Again
Posted by Mach on May 11, 2013
England is getting all the hits it feels like. This track from John Newman is gold, rarely what you get to hear in the US at this caliber anymore. I’m just not that into Bruno Mars and all the other mediocre pop artists, sure they can sing but where is their music like this? Wouldn’t surprise me if this gem made its way over to the US, it’s too good to go unnoticed. “Love Me Again” releases June 30th on iTunes Great Britain.
DJ-Set, Electro-House, Progressive House | Essential Mix & Selection W/ Madeon, Porter Robinson & Chuckie
Posted by Middy on January 29, 2012
On Friday night, BBC Radio One had a special show from Hull in England with Pete Tong’s Essential Selection show that included a spectacular 20 minute guest set from Madeon, included below, as well as a bonus 4 hours of Essential Mixes from Chuckie, Porter Robinson, Fedde Le Grand (not recorded) and Judge Jules to finish off a marathon night at Hull. Chuckie puts together a fantastic set with some of his new stuff such as his upcoming single “Together”, with his impeccable ability as a live Dj and great song selection. The mix that really stood out for me was Porter Robinson because as his is such as good live Dj, which seems to be a lost art these days and as a 19 year old, it is even more impressive. He is able to flawlessly mix together multiple songs, two or three or more at time, to create ridiculous bootlegs that will always keep you on your toes with a fantastic song selection. Listen to the sets on the BBC Radio One website or download them below. Tracklists after the jump.
