Progressive House, Trance | Lush & Simon, Uforik – Hydrogen
Posted by Middy on October 22, 2014
Originally a “Demo Of The Week” on Hardwell on Air 153 called “Air” from Uforik, “Hydrogen” has now been repackaged with the skilled help of progressive starlets Lush & Simon. A global collab, bringing together Chinese newcomer Uforik and Italians Lush & Simon, this tune has the airy sound of its namesake. Sounding very similar to something from Audien’s back catalog, the blend of trance and progressive makes this tune a very easy-going, soothing progressive track that flows through the ears. Grab the tune now on Beatport courtesy of Doorn Records.

Electro-House | Charity Strike – Yankee
Posted by Middy on October 5, 2014
When I first saw the name I thought it would be a tribute song to the man, the myth, the legend, Derek Jeter, but the LA based duo let me down on that point. They redeemed themselves with the actual content of the tune that brings together an interesting mix of blues and rock with gritty electro bursts. Stream the tune below and expect more from the Hardwell remix competition winners, turned official remixers and original production signees.

Progressive House | Hardwell & W&W – The Dance Floor Is Yours
Posted by BIGLIFE on September 5, 2014
A few months ago, during an interview at A State of Trance 650 in Utrecht, Hardwell offered the following response to Armin Van Buuren in regards to what his album might sound like:
“I’m experimenting with a lot of new, different sounds. I’m a bit sick of the same formula that’s going on in EDM right now so I’m just trying to change boundaries and look at what’s going on in the rest of the world. Even in the hip hop scene and the trance scene and try to combine as much as possible.” [VIDEO]
I’m going to let that marinate as you listen to this new offering from Hardwell. Ha!

Electro-House | MAKJ – Mad Max
Posted by Middy on January 14, 2014
It seems like yesterday when MAKJ hit 100,00 Facebook fans, but with success of “Countdown” alongside Hardwell and recent touring, MAKJ has doubled his Facebook total in only a few months to 200k. To celebrate he has given away a new single “Mad Max”. It samples the sounds of cars accelerating, drawing upon his youth as a professional race car driver in China, while adding his electro house pizazz and a churning, rolling bass line. You won’t want to skip out on this freebee.

Progressive House | Claire – Games (Boris Deckers Remix)

Ripped straight Nicky Romero’s Protocol Radio set and also played on Tiesto’s Club Life 348, this is one of the best progressive house remixes I’ve heard in a minute by Boris Deckers of Claire’s “Games.” Claire’s vocals and overall song, layered with Boris’ chord progression make for a stellar track. This is my first time hearing of the young 19 year old producer from the Netherlands, but he’s not going unnoticed already having signed a publishing deal with Cloud9, who also signed Armin Van Buuren and Hardwell among others. I genuinely look forward to the release of this track! This is a must listen!
