RnB, Videos | Element Delivers Captivating Music Video For The Weeknd’s ‘The Hills’
Posted by Matt Keene on July 7, 2015
Element
Noun
1. a component or constituent of a whole or one of the parts into which awhole may be resolved by analysis
When deciding to go by Element versus his given name, Gabriel Thompson must have had to take this entry in the dictionary into consideration. The talented and surging director out of Los Angeles has delivered a magnificent piece of art inspired by an artist of a different kind, The Weeknd. When one feels inspired to do something for no reason other than just to create art, that is art; and that is what Element has delivered to us with his ‘Wolf Concept’. Dark, mysterious, sexy, intense are just a few of the many adjectives the cross my cranium as I watch the plot unfold with the elegant star of the concept, Dakota Skye.
Check it out and be sure to give Element a Like on Facebook and follow on Twitter/Instagram as he travels the world shooting for the DJ duo GTA – @ElementzWorld
Future House | Pete Tong Previews Martin Solveig’s Brand New “+1”
Posted by BIGLIFE on May 7, 2015
Ah, the plus one. A ubiquitous request made many a times by those in the “the scene”. Martin Solveig is likely no stranger to this request, as he’s toured the world and back with his infectious production and knack for knowing what’s next in dance music. Case and point: “+1” a future house tune previewed by BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong that has groove written all over it. Building on the success of his massive “Intoxicated” with GTA, I suspect “+1” out on Spinnin’ Deep will see equally strong results on June 1st.

House | Martin Solveig & GTA Team Up On “Intoxicated”
Posted by BIGLIFE on December 13, 2014
You’ve got to be kidding me. Martin Solveig and GTA teamed up to release an insane ripper on Spinnin’ Deep that I’ve heard previewed a few times on Heldeep Radio and Oliver Heldens’s BBC Radio 1 “Essential Mix.” Side note: Spinnin’ Deep is crushing it right now. These folks keep pumping out hit after hit. I’m honestly damn impressive. “Intoxiated” drops January 19th, which can’t come soon enough.
Huge tune! I need a full preview and need it now.
