Hip-Hop | mdnt – Dreamcatcher ft. Jez Dior [Music Video]
Posted by Jess on February 26, 2013
The enigmatic artist mdnt introduces himself with his debut single entitled “Dreamcatcher” featuring buzzing artist Jez Dior and production from SmarterChild. mdnt calls his music “Future Soul”, which he describes as a combination of soulful vocals with progressive electronic music. The song is incredible and a great debut from an artist that is definitely one to watch. “Dreamcatcher” is inspired by the passing of mdnt’s grandfather, which you can read more about below.
“My entire life I have been compared to all his positive attributes. He was a brilliant man, but he also possessed a deep well of dark traits that ostracized him from the family and contributed to his death. I had always wanted to talk with him, with the hope that understanding him would help me avoid or control the darker parts that I may possess as well. The video takes my initial insecurities about possessing the dark parts of my grandfather and manifests them in the masked figure terrorizing both Jez and myself.” – mdnt

As always, Tim Gunter delivers another phenomenal piece of music. This time he goes for more of the laid back mood in his electronic track. Taking Parker Ighile’s great vocals and adding beautiful synths with a good bass line and the 808, Tim is again showing his versatility. I keep saying it, but watch out for Timmy Gunter. He’s got beats for days.

Progressive House | Syn Cole – April
Posted by Middy on February 4, 2013
Estonian producer Rene Pais, now known as Syn Cole or in the trance world as DNS Project, having ditched his Clashback moniker, is set to make his single debut on Avicii’s LE7ELS imprint with his track “April”. As one of our 13 to watch in 2013, Syn Cole combines gritty, complex electro, a quick alternating bass line, with strong synth play and pitch lead. The progressive mix takes a little of the edge off with a stripped back second drop for those of you who want a little more of an uplifting sound. Having already shown his prowess on the remix front and trance fans are already quite familiar with the DNS Project name, having played ASOT 550 in addition to numerous releases on Armada, Coldharbour etc, it should be no surprise that the quality will be there from the get go, as we see with “April”.
