Progressive House | Moiez – Flight
Posted by Middy on June 24, 2012
Moiez continues to impress with constancy as a young up and coming producer, where usually there are some duds that come out of the production lab, I have not heard one yet in the latest string of releases. “Flight” could be his best production yet, up there with “Spark“, giving us the uplifting progressive sounds we know this 19 year old Canadian can churn out. Female vocals accompany a euphoric melody of driving synth chords with subtle, well timed stutters and a thumping clap, while a soft melodic interlude brings us to an even bigger and louder second break. Great production all around from Moiez and it is free, so you have no excuse not to hit the download button.
Progressive House | Zedd Feat. Matthew Koma – Spectrum (Moiez Remix)
Posted by Middy on June 22, 2012
Canadian producer Moiez has released his remix of Zedd’s “Spectrum” luckily for us before the announcement of the “Spectrum” Beatport remix contest that will inevitably be filling up my inbox in the coming days. Moiez keeps the emotion of the track and adds his melodic flare to it by tinkering only slightly with the build and then reconstructing almost entirely the drop into a peak time, hands in the air break of a driving, clap dominating bass line, melodic synth chords and rising synths. If you didn’t check out his previous tracks do so and from the looks of it, we have something good brewing here with this young Canadian.
Progressive House, Trance | Introducing : Moiez
Posted by Middy on May 22, 2012
It is really rare that I get a submission that makes me sit back in my chair and say “wow” and 19 year old Vancouver native Moiez Babar or Moiez did just that. With a combination of uplfiting trance and moving progressive tracks, Moiez is an artist that will we will be keeping an eye on. Judging by the soundcloud plays, this is a true introduction to the world for Moiez and his deftly crafted productions, though he has had some exposure in Canada. The two originals really stood out to me with “Sparks” being more along the lines of progressive house track and “Kismet” being more of a progressive trance track. They were both submitted to Tristan Garner’s Xtra Life contest, so if you read this Mr. garner pick Moiez.
“Spark” provides thoughtful vocals with a smooth build that cascades into a break of thumping bass, vocals, and synth chords creating a hands in the air melody. “Kismet” is more trancey with a quicker trance oriented bass line, soft, thoughtful interludes, quick key play with long synth chords and a driving bass line in the drop. The remixes are not to overlooked as well. Though Axwell & Henrik B will always remain kings for their remode on “Teenage Crime”, Moiez delivers a solid take on it. “Flashback” keeps much of the original melody, though he distorts it some to create a more fluid synth melody, while utilizing those very recognizable vocals. “Till Tonight” may be the best one, though it takes a while to reach the break. Also included is a teaser of his “Let’s Go” remix, which is being featured in the Beatport contest. If you like what you hear there, follow the link below and listen to the whole thing on the Beatport page and vote for it there.
