Mashups, Progressive House | DOSVEC – Contagious
Posted by BIGLIFE on April 21, 2015
“Contagious”, the most recent mashup by DOSVEC is as hot as the California sun, showing a bright future for the Brooklyn-born maestro. Native California band Night Riots provide the unlikely vocals for this EDM mash, with DOSVEC again showing that music has no boundaries, and genres as different as Rock and Dance can come together to create a tune that appeals to all.
Night Riots fans might find themselves captivated by the growing reach of Dance music in the United States, while Dance fans might find themselves crossing over to the growing legacy of Rock music. Although Night Riots are still fresh in the scene, they’re making big moves and one of the biggest moves is grabbing the ear of mash master DOSVEC, who has slammed two coasts together to form a new State of Dance.

Trance | Andrew Bayer – Once Lydian
Posted by Middy on February 8, 2014
Andrew Bayer is genius. His album “If It Were You, We’d Never Leave” was my favorite full length LP from 2013, even after it was all said and done with others from Mat Zo, Feed Me, Avicii, Daft Punk and Sub Focus. He has returned to releasing club oriented singles, most recently with “Perth / Merth Mobile”. There are no weak segments of the tune, beginning with a thumping opening sequence that transitions into a magnificently crafted melody layered with big, reverbed piano that Arty uses so well. Bayer proves why he is one of the best once again with “Once Lydian”.

Events | Above & Beyond Bring Group Therapy To Atlantic City
Posted by Middy on February 7, 2014
Still riding high from incredibly successful release of their stunning acoustic album, Above & Beyond came to the Tri-State area during Super Bowl weekend for a dose of Group Therapy at HQ Nightclub in Atlantic City. They have very few upcoming shows on the docket for this spring, so I knew that this one was a must attend, notably just after the acoustic album. I saw them in DC the weekend after they released Group Therapy, so this is becoming a tradition of mine to see them live after they release an album. I see no reason to stop. Stream the album below and read on for the rest of the review.

YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT IT IS.
All the music that I listened to throughout the last 12 months enough to make me sick but somehow didn’t. The fields of music brought a bountiful yield in 2013 which allowed listeners like me to tune into more genres and artists than I could ever imagine. In order to cover all my necessary bases, I’ve drafted quite a comprehensive list (or two) missing prety much only anything Jennifer Lawrence related although if all the things she said this year were songs then they would 100% have made it on my list as well.
So, let the countdown, BEGIN!

Progressive House | Arty, Matisse & Sadko – RIOT
Posted by Middy on December 16, 2013
The Russian team who brought us the magical track on Axtone last year, “Trio”, Arty & Matisse & Sadko finish out their year with “RIOT”. You know what you are going to get with these three: stadium sized, sublime melodies and “RIOT” is just that, another flawless performance from these three. Spinnin’ has been become known for its somewhat repetitive festival-ready releases, so it is nice to see one of their bigger tracks come in the form of something melodic like “RIOT”.
