{Progressive} Nervo "HOLD ON"

The Australian sisters are back and once again they have come out with a wonderful song here. Very progressive tune with wonderful lyrics that have become a staple of their productions.

Hold On will be available for purchase on April 9th with a Remix EP slated for May 7th.

Mim or Liv, marry me? I'm not picky.

{Collab} Yoko Ono "HOLD ME" Dirtyloud Remix

Yes you are reading this correctly; Dirtyloud has just completed a remix of a Yoko Ono song. This song instantly took me back to the house songs I grew up with in Europe but once the drop hit I was immediately transported back to the present. The melody has a very 90's house feel to it (maybe because Dave Aude helped Yoko with the original).

The remix is available on iTunes through Mind Train Records.

There is a lot of bass in this song; thank you Dirtyloud. Hold me, anyone?

{Complextro} Black Tiger Sex Machine "COVEN"

Well, this is about as good as complextro gets. Heavy electro chords lead up to a man saying "drop" - which I just love. Then the bass hits with intertwined orchestral and lyrical samples to create a heavy hitting club banger. This song makes me envision what electricity would sound like running through telephone poles at a million miles an hour.

It is a FREE DOWNLOAD so please do yourself a favor (and your neighbors a non-favor) and hit the download button while supplies still last.

{New} James Egbert & Schoolboy "SILVER LINING"

Schoolboy teams up with my good friend James Egbert to create a unique EP that clearly showcases both talents. All 3 songs on the EP are very different and also very good. "All Systems Are Go" being their Electro banger; "Hero Down" is a more melodic Dubstep song that carries some bite; and finally "Stardust" is an anthem with vocals by Taylr Renee.

This EP will be released on Monday April 1st on Infrared Records.

Well done James, keep up the good work! Ah, he probably won't read this.

(Trap Thursday} Callum's Top 5 Selections

Welcome to the first edition of Trap Thursday. I must be honest I did not like Trap when it first came about but it is growing on me. Trap is the vital link that is moving listeners of Hip-Hop to the now more popular genre of EDM.

My top 5 Trap songs of this month feature stars such as Bro Safari & A-Trax but also some future stars like :DFACE.

{Bass} Vato Gonzalez & DJ Punish "FAVELA RIDDIM"

WOW! I just heard this song for the first time two minutes ago.... that drop is just insane (so much bass!) Vato Gonzalez and DJ Punish take you to the slums of Rio de Janeiro to portray the violent nature as well as the great music culture that lives in the streets. Zuzuka Poderosa lends her vocal talents to this mighty riddim.

This was released by Dirty House on Monday; buy yourself a copy!

Disclaimer: if your speakers do actually blow up on this song I am not liable in any way.

{Lasers} Moby & The Loops Of Fury "PARA"

Most producers in our generation attribute Daft Punk as to the reason why they made the switch to EDM music. However, for me, it was all about Moby. I was first introduced to Moby about 12 years ago by my Grandfather of all people - but Moby had that kind of influence on all age groups.

Moby does the melody; Loops of Fury with the drop.

Released March 18th on Lotus Recordings. If you like The Loops of Fury you will love this song; and not the other way around. I'm making no sense - it's 11 AM, it's still too early.

{Future #1} Morgan Page & Beltek "CAPTCHA"

Morgan Page is one of the most sought out DJ's in the world. Beltek is one of my favorite producers in the Progressive House & Trance genres. So naturally this song is brilliant and the drop is much heavier than I originally anticipated. The melody is a very jivy progressive tune that launches itself in to a deep bass-filled drop that is sprinkled with electro chords.

This song was just released on Monday by Sneakerz MUZIK; grab yourself a copy and tell all your friends you were ahead of the charts!

{Anthem} Capital Cities "SAFE & SOUND" Tommie Sunshine & Live City Remix

The original song from Capital Cities is a beautiful indie rock song that captured many people through the heartfelt lyrics. There is something quite peaceful knowing that a loved one is safe and sound. Tommie Sunshine (who has been on a bit of a stormer lately) and Live City have teamed up to create a beautiful progressive house tune using the most poignant lyrics and dropping the song with bass-filled lasers.

Do yourself a favor and grab this tune as it is a free download! 

{Trance Tuesday} Callum's Selections of the Week

Every Tuesday I will be showcasing my top 5 Trance tunes that I just can't stop playing. Trance lovers; tuesday is your new favorite day of the week.

The 5 songs I have collected range from big powerhouses such as Tritonal and Heatbeat to the unfamiliar name of Fisherman & Hawkins.

Feel free to get lost in a trance.

{Chickens & Ducks} A.G.Trio "DUCKSTEP"

This song just goes to show that you can put any word and add 'step' to the end of it and: Boom; you have a new genre. HOWEVERstep, the trio from Austria do disclaim that this was done as a JOKEstep stating it "was originally a humorous party-skit for the huge live-shows". Either way this song does bring the bass and it should help to blow those speakers.

The bands description of the song: "Chicken-beats over a Du(d/ck)step bass - do you want fries with that?" Free download until April 3rd. Enough Said. Step.

{ABBA} Overwerk "12:30"

Edmond Huszar a.k.a Overwerk is from London in Canada - not London in England. If you are an Abba fan, or like Madonna who sampled this Abba song then you are in for a treat! This is a very hard Electro House banger that samples some of Abba's finest work. This will be played in nightclubs, festivals and small bedroom studio's around the world.

Edmond released this 5 days ago on his Soundcloud page and it is a free download once you "like" his Facebook page. Good deal if you ask me.

{Dubstep} Clark Kent & Mimi Page "LIFE"

If Dubstep and Trance were to ever do it, yes I mean IT, and they had a baby this would be their song. Clark Kent has produced such a beautiful song here with the soft sounds of Mimi Page in the background. The serenading melody then leads in to an attack of endless wobbles and deep bass that will make you ears tingle with excitement.

This is a free download from Clark Kent's Soundcloud page.

You can thank me later. I accept cash only.  

{Electro} Alex Mind & Sue Cho "LET IT GO"

Alex Mind the DJ and Producer from Rio in Brazil has come up with a wonder song here. If I were to picture in my mind the perfect Electro House song this comes very close to it. Great lyrics with jumpy synths in the background which leads in to a more progressive build up before a heavy hitting complextro drop.

This song was released on Big Fish Recordings on March 18th.

If you love Electro please buy the full length version. Most things in life are better enjoyed in full length.

{Remix} Arty & Chris James "TOGETHER WE ARE" The M Machine Remix

The original song from Arty and Chris James was a beautiful progressive anthem. But then the The M Machine get their hands on it; much like Muhammad Ali in the ring, and just MURDER it. The three guys from San Fran have such a unique sound to every production they create. You will be hearing a lot of their music on this blog - this is a fair warning.


Released on Big Beat Records on March 18th.

{Trance} Shogun "DROP"

American producer Andrew Chen (aka Shogun) is the first Asian DJ and producer to be signed to Armada Recordings. This is a real heavy Trance song that will be played in many night clubs for many months to come. Enjoy this thrilling bass heavy anthem.

This is just a 1.30 minute preview of the song which is available for purchase on Beatport.

Released March 18 on Armada Recordings.

{Simply Marvelous} Just Blaze x Baauer "HIGHER"

Baauer teams up with Just Blaze to bring us an amazing Trap song. With a waterfall-like intro and some catchy rap lyrics this song will be sure to entice you from the first second and leave you gobsmacked after the first drop.

No release date has been issued from either party. Sorry.


I guess it was just here to tease me.
