Progressive House | Vicetone – California
Posted by Middy on September 5, 2012
Dutch duo Vicetone, who we introduced to you guys back in July with their three fire remixes of some mainstream hits that took them to a new stratosphere have released their first single “California”. While Dash Berlin’s recent ode to California may remain supreme, Vicetone does the state justice. It takes a repetitive vocal and adds a groovy bass line, fast paced arp and piano based melody to create this great first original effort from the dutch duo. Hopefully they can continue their level of constancy and continue to create new original tracks that set new standards of quality. Also included is a remix they did a little while ago of the bit overplayed and over remixed “Payphone” from Maroon 5 & Wiz Khalifa that has a minimal progressive style and may be a refresher from all the remixes that go for the anthem or bust approach.

I would like to introduce you guys to Vicetone, two 20 year old producers from Groningren in Northern Holland (they just keep on coming). Their productions are flawless with full bodied, top of the line melodies, crisp bass lines and well organized transitions, builds and breaks. They only have 3 productions on their Soundcloud page and they are all must haves — showing that they are only going to release their top of the line work. They use vocals just right, molding them to their deftly crafted melodies. Their most recent remix of Adele’s hit “Someone Like You” exemplifies that with a soft build with agile key play, dancing alongside the vocals. It then moves into a break of a sublime melody with intricate layers and a hard clap. The remixes of Flo Rida’s hit single “Whistle” and Calvin Harris & Ne Yo’s “Let’s Go” continue this trend of well crafted, uplifting melodies and superb bass lines. The full version of the “Whistle” remix can be found on their Soundcloud page. Check all of these out and be on the look out for more tracks from these guys in the future!
