Posted by VMan on June 27, 2024
Kelly Reverb’s career is filled with impressive achievements. His music has been showcased in the feature film ‘Blade,’ and he’s shared stages with industry giants like Carl Cox, Dada Life, and EDX. Kelly’s tracks are currently trending on Beatport, reflecting his enduring relevance in the electronic scene. Additionally, he founded Lone Star Records, an independent label where he releases his own tracks and collaborates with other artists.
Kelly’s journey began in Dallas, Texas. He first made a name for himself at The Lizard Lounge, a premier underground nightclub. Kelly’s unique blend of house and breakbeat, developed over years of gigs at venues like Home Base, Tunnel NYC, and The Clevelander Miami, has defined his career. This foundation set the stage for his continuous evolution as an artist.
Now, Kelly Reverb has released a two-track EP. “La Isla Bonita (Madonna On Acid)” is a fresh take on Madonna’s classic hit, inspired by Kelly’s experiences at Miami Music Week and a Madonna concert in Dallas. Paired with the Latin-influenced “Coming Back,” this EP is designed to energize any dancefloor, blending nostalgia with cutting-edge beats.
Progressive House | Spektrem – Enter The Spektrem

Maryland duo, Spektrem put their name on our radar last year with releases like “In a Dream”, “Sugar” and “Dirtybuzz“. Right from the beginning they showed the ability to stand out with very crisp productions and outstanding melodies. They have played already played gigs with the likes of Krewella and Savoy and played at Dayglow (who the hell calls it Life In Color?) and are only getting ready for bigger things this year including the Project Miami show on the 15th during WMC.
The opener “Loretta” is a high energy track that gets to it right from the get go with a teasing big room build and a punchy, driving bass line and low end. “Shine” was previewed a few weeks back and it is the uplifting, big room track you come to expect from them like “Sugar” and “In A Dream” with an outstanding melody and subtle, growling riffs. It has been over a year since the original release of “In A Dream”, so they decided to re-mix the original and make it more professional sounding, showing their technical progress as a group. They are big fans of the “We’re Coming Back” vocal so they decided to make the track their own using big room synths with a small smattering of stutters and an interesting interlude with an alternating bass line. Grab the 4 track EP for free below for a simple Facebook like, you won’t regret the decision.
