Progressive House | Dzeko & Torres – Highline

Dzeko & Torres - Highline

Dzeko & Torres have benefited from Tiësto’s immense recent support, consistently playing their remixes and originals out over the past few months. This has all culminated in an end of the year release on his esteemed Musical Freedom. “Highline” brings the melodic prowess we have seen from the duo in their recent releases and possibly takes it to new heights.

Progressive House | Magnus & Timon – Kepler, Onyx, Kick Out The Epic MotherF**Ker Remix

Posted by on December 25, 2013

artworks-000066101557-fyoo2j-t500x500Two of the many people giving away tracks for Christmas is the French duo Magnus & Timon. Up until a couple of months ago, they had not released a track all year but since then they have now released six. I am a huge fan of these guys so this gives me great pleasure. The kind of pleasure only two French men can give to another man. Two originals and one remix is what they have given away and all of them are good, but the two originals are great. “Kepler”, the melodic one, and “Onyx”, the more hard hitting one are both lacking in vocals but they don’t need them, they are both outstanding songs on their own. Their Dada Life remix is good as well but the other two clearly stand above it.

Bass, Chill, Deep House, Electronic | W8’s Top 10 Tracks of 2013

Posted by on December 23, 2013

We’re almost there. A few more days and 2013 will be another one for the books. ‘Tis the time to summarize a score of minty fresh jams that didn’t fade away too quickly this year, which is saying a hell of a lot these days. This compilation could have easily had tracks replaced with others, and all would be the same to me. There is just too many to name that are equally as good but I guess narrowing it down to 10 appeals to us all. Note that this vaporwave clip Feeel by Torus above is my favorite video of the year and is why it’s there. All this said I’ll let you get on with it. Have a Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year.

Electro-House | Wolfgang Garnter – Piranha

Posted by on December 18, 2013

Wolfgang Garnter - Piranha

Consistently one of the most innovative minds in electro house, and in dance music in general, Wolfgang Gartner has been a pioneer from the moment he started. Capping off another great year that has seen the resurgence of his label, Kindergarten Recordings, the cat loving American releases his new single “Piranha”. “Piranha” has the unique electro sound you want from Wolfgang, with a foreboding synth lead, a punchy bass line and glitchy, melodic excellence. Like a piranha, this track won’t just come after you once, but rather slowly beat you into submission with each subtle element over the entire duration of the song.

Electronic | Au5 & Collin McLoughlin – Tendril (Original Mix)

Collin McLoughlin
Premiered on EDM.com just a few minutes ago, Au5 and Collin McLoughlin premiered their massive “Tendril” track to much fanfare. Coming off an explosive performance at Winston’s in Dallas, Collin McLoughlin has been on a serious roll as of late, and this new track is no exception. I can’t wait to see what 2014 has in store for the king of melodic dubstep. Tendril is hot lava.

Progressive House | Arty, Matisse & Sadko – RIOT

Arty, Matisse & Sadko - RIOT
The Russian team who brought us the magical track on Axtone last year, “Trio”, Arty & Matisse & Sadko finish out their year with “RIOT”. You know what you are going to get with these three: stadium sized, sublime melodies and “RIOT” is just that, another flawless performance from these three. Spinnin’ has been become known for its somewhat repetitive festival-ready releases, so it is nice to see one of their bigger tracks come in the form of something melodic like “RIOT”.

Julian Jordan Arms Up

Having hit 100k fans on Facebook, Julian Jordan has decided to give out a dynamite free original. Too often we see bootlegs given out for big Facebook milestones, when you know they are holding on to goodie, goodies like this. This track is crisp, powerful and melodic, making it possibly one of the young Dutchman’s strongest tracks to date.
