Progressive House | Trivecta Focuses On His Progressive-Trance Roots With “Into The Limelight”
Posted by VMan on April 20, 2016
Trivecta’s “Into The Limelight (feat. Danyka Nadeau)” speaks volumes about the continuous presence of older genres, Monstercat’s curation style in 2016, and showcases Trivecta in a shell he’s quite comfortable in.
Some may say genres like progressive and trance are fading away, but as you can see from the play hits and traction of this tune, the audience is far from dispersing. “Into The Limelight (feat. Danyka Nadeau)” combines the two sounds in an epic, anthem-like way that’s the opposite of generic. It’s an engine that carries you into a universe all it’s own. This tune made my day.
Bass | Koinu Keeps The Trap & Bass Coming With “IceIce” Remix
Posted by VMan on March 29, 2016
Koinu is Varien, one of Monstercat biggest, baddest, and most unique artists. Hes started a new side project called Koinu which features modern dressed anime girls posing, dope ass bass music, videos – an overall experience.
Before I dive in, I want to know, htf does Koinu do that with his font/text? There’s no program/app that forces his font to conform to other fonts no matter what it seems, Koinu makes everyone else’s code conform to his font..crazy.
Anyway, back to the music. The best way Koinu can be described is a blend of the trap-dubstep sound that is being thrown around these days and eastern culture. Nick has always been good at creating worlds, it looks as if he is doing it again.

If you haven’t become familiar with Xan Griffin stop what you’re doing and hit play. After turning heads at the Monstercat offices, Xan Griffin follows up with another heavy single orchestrating his finesse with the dubstep sound. I suggest long drives for this one – overall, one of the cleanest produced tracks by this emerging talent.
