Dubstep | xKore — Stabs EP

Posted by on July 30, 2012

The heavy hitting xKore’s newest EP “Stabs” was released on Inspected today. Most well known for his powerful, vicious growl sounds and laser synths, this is has just the right combination and amout of both. Although most people were waiting to hear the new bass bumping tracks he had produced; I think it was his melodic masterpiece Empty Space that won me over on the EP. The heavy hitting tracks like Boom and Stabs are still amazing tracks, but Empty Space stood out to me the most and won me over immediately. Being able to accommodate both sides of the spectrum is a big aspect in my eyes as far as the well roundedness of a producer is concerned and this isn’t the first time xKore has exhibited that aspect. All in all xKore shows us no obstacle is to tough for him to tackle when producing multiple genres. He can either destroy your face with bass or melt you heart out with his amazing melodies, sounds and great use of accompanied vocals. Don’t sleep on this one of a kind EP and grab it off Beatport HERE.

 

Progressive House | Zedd Feat. Matthew Koma – Spectrum (Moiez Remix)

Posted by on June 22, 2012

Canadian producer Moiez has released his remix of Zedd’s “Spectrum” luckily for us before the announcement of the “Spectrum” Beatport remix contest that will inevitably be filling up my inbox in the coming days. Moiez keeps the emotion of the track and adds his melodic flare to it by tinkering only slightly with the build and then reconstructing almost entirely the drop into a peak time, hands in the air break of a driving, clap dominating bass line, melodic synth chords and rising synths. If you didn’t check out his previous tracks do so and from the looks of it, we have something good brewing here with this young Canadian.

Electro-House | Zedd – Spectrum (feat. Matthew Koma)

Posted by on June 4, 2012

Despite being leaked a little while ago, Zedd’s masterpiece “Spectrum” with Matthew Koma still has nearly all the momentum behind its release. Zedd has grown immensely as a producer, exploring new styles and sounds, while becoming a globally recognizable name not just in niche circles, but in the mainstream conscious. This is not the typical formula of a Zedd track, though he has been experimenting lately with his hardstyle track “Shotgun”. Spectrum is more progressive than what we usually expect from the German with the vocals from Matthew Koma that are different from your usual house vocals, almost reminding me for Dream Theater’s vocals, with intricate key play long synth chords and a slow, calculated bass line in the build. It crescendos into a break of driving bass, pulsing synth chords and a well crafted, pitched melody with an electro house interlude that we would expect to hear from Zedd. Expect to hear this early and often from your favorite electro house producers this festival season and plenty during Starscape this Saturday.

Dubstep | Culprate & Deadpool

Posted by on March 1, 2012

Culprate’s Tentacle VIP and Deadpool’s remix of Prepare To Die are best described as Fire and Ice; polar opposites of each other. Culprate’s VIP is a nice melodic dubstep work of art. The intro builds up with a nice piano sounding synth into an almost jazz/blues sounding drop where the snares and drums pick up the pace. A true melodic masterpiece from Culprate. Now we move to the other side of the spectrum, which in this case is Deadpool’s remix of Bare Noize’s Prepare To Die. The best way to describe this track is to “Insert UKF filth comment here”. Caution: the drop will melt your subs.
