Events, Review, Trance | The Expedition’s Trance Takeover of Madison Square Garden
Posted by Middy on April 6, 2013
Wow, Wichita State is crushing Ohio State. This is not even close, who woulda thunk it. The bartender refills my glass as I watch the Shockers do just that, shock the basketball world and everyone’s bracket. Man was mine totally ruined, but at least I wasn’t the guy who picked georgetown to go all the way — dunk city. I look at my phone, 8:10. I am pushing the limit of how long I can stay at the bar because I need to get over to Madison Square Garden and sneak down past some security guards to a seat that isn’t in the obstructed view section. I close out and head over to the Garden to navigate the line and get inside.
The line is nonexistent, so I walk through and head up to the first level to probe the defenses of the seat security like a prized fighter trying to find the weak spot of my enemy. I see some other people dancing the same dance I am and as a group we would like to thank the kid in the teal tank who was escorted out of section 102 and left the entrance unguarded, letting the stream of approximately me and 4 other kids into the section. Thank you, because my seat put me dead center and I could see the entire arena laid out in front of me.

Bass, RnB | Atu Ft. Sango – The Duo
Posted by W8 on March 18, 2013
Mmm. So good. Atu being a romantic bass head contrived with Sango can only mean good. ”The Duo” acts as Atu’s first single off ”Pictures on Silence” that is set to release March 22nd, and will surely have a plentiful strain of delicious beats like this one. And lastly a random thought spurred into mind about a post from last year that reminded me of this track, and so if you like what you hear and want to continue feel free to click here and check that also.

Trance | Kyau & Albert – Glühwürmchen
Posted by Middy on March 18, 2013
One of my favorite cuts from Anjunabeats Volume 10, Kyau & Albert’s “Glühwürmchen” get its full single release in the aftermath of the compilation that has already seen the release of Norin & Rad’s “Aldo“. “Glühwürmchen” embodies the current sound of Anjunabeats with a slowed down tempo, gritty low end and an infectious melody. Coming off of the release of their artist album “Nights Awake” last month, Kyau & Albert are off a to a very good start this year.
Progressive House | Sander Van Doorn & Mark Knight vs Underworld – Ten
Posted by Middy on March 5, 2013
A collab that came a bit out of left field, as previewed by Mark Knight & Sander van Doorn a little while ago, at first I was unsure what I was going to hear with how Sander’s sound has progressed in recent years, but this is a pleasant surprise. The track has all of the hallmarks of tech house leader Mark Knight’s sound, while turning back the clock with Sander van Doorn, turning up the tempo and borrowing some from his days of trance and mixing in some of his current big room melodic tendencies. Underworld’s soothing vocals mesh perfectly with the churning, techy, yet melodic instrumental.

Dubstep | Robert Miles – The Children (Deckscar Reworked Mix)
Posted by Sev on February 21, 2013
After months of hard work and countless hours spent on perfecting this track, it is time everyone got to enjoy this amazing piece by Deckscar. Taking a well-known, well loved original by Robert Miles and giving it his dark, heavy spin on it to revitalize a dance music classic. The amount of detail and accuracy is amazing in this rework and the quality of craftsmanship really shows. The first drop is like no style I have heard from any other artist, which is what won me over right away. It doesn’t end their because the second drop is just as wicked as the first with an added mid-tempo twist. This is just the first of many amazing release from Deckscar so be sure stay on the lookout for more upcoming releases soon.
Hip-Hop | Iroc Mics & Tonio – T.W.A (Till We Arrive) [Prod by Potillo]
Posted by W8 on January 15, 2013
“Hard to be real when you can’t tell the difference.”
The latest from Texas duo, Tonio and Iroc Mics embodies a delightful blend of flavors that really hits home. Potillo underlies it with a smooth tempo, late Kanye-esq style beat that compliments the lyrics perfectly. I’ve been missing this hip-hop for a long time!
