Review: Frontliner – The Summer Of Frontliner (3/14) (2014)

Audio

Frontliner & Kristina Antuna - Galaxies Collide (Original Mix)

Frontliner has released a three songs of his new project titled, “The Summer of Frontliner”, which, as you can imagine, is a good addition to a summer playlist. The most enjoyable songs on Fronliner’s new EP were, “Galaxies Collide” and “TBA 2” which is currently #2 on Hardstyle.Com’s top tracks. The melody on “TBA 2” is borderline memorizing, interrupted only by the drop with the hard hitting kicks that Hardstyle is known for. What I enjoyed the most about “Galaxies Collide” was how the instrumental and the vocals came together, especially on the build ups.

Tempo’s Latest Track “Desperte” Aimed At Cosculluela & Tito El Bambino

Audio

Tempo - Desperte

Artillery Music is back with some great beats this time with recently released Puerto Rican rapper, Tempo. The Latin Hip Hop track produced by Artillery’s Nely “El Arma Secreta” takes aim at another Puerto Rican artist, Tito El Bambino, where Tempo refers to him by name. In addition to Tito, Tempo takes aim at Cosculluela, mocking his flow in a part of the song.

The flow was kind of forced by Tempo to fit the instrumental but, overall the song isn’t half bad. Although the song was good, something was missing — maybe a featuring by someone?

Charli XCX Releases An ASTR Remix of “Boom Clap”

Audio

Charli Xcx Boom Clap ASTR Remix

Charli XCX, whose voice you’ve probably heard at least once or twice on the radio every hour, has released a remix of her single, “Boom Clap”, which is currently in the top 40 of Billboard’s “Hot 100” The remix was produced by ASTR, a New York City based producer who has worked with Big KRIT, Neon Trees and other notable artists in the past.

“Boom Clap” on iTunes featured on “The Fault in Our Stars” Movie Soundtrack

MUSIC VIDEO – “Boom Clap”

ASTR brings his unique style while still keeping some elements from the original song to the remix which combine with Charli XCX’s vocals quite well. Although this remix would technically fall under Twerk / Trap (taking advantage of the name I guess), the way the mellow melody and Charli’s vocals come together you wouldn’t realize it’s a trap remix until you hear the high hat rolls and Lex Luger climax lasers.

Still no word on when the remix will be released but, you can stream it below today!

E-Lusive & Skeets – Roll Out [Hardstyle / Trap / Freebie]

Audio

E Lusive Roll Out

E-Lusive and Skeets roll out with their new single, “Roll Out”, a Hardstyle track straight out the trap house! What I really enjoyed about the song is that, besides being a free download, the Hardstyle kick isn’t watered down or crappy — its actually quite nice. The trap section reminds me a lot of Baauer’s early trap style and blends in well with the Hardstyle drops too.

“Roll Out” is a great track for those who need a high energy song in their music library or that extra push at the gym. Download it today!

Review: Moska – Duma EP (2014)

Audio

Moska Brazil

Moska was not shy on merging various genres into single tracks with this EP. From Moombahton to Big Room and even a little Bounce and Tech house elements this three track EP is jam packed full of genres. What I really enjoyed about the EP was how Moska went about merging all these styles without it feeling ‘boxed’, everything just flowed so well you won’t even notice when those hips will begin to move.

Buy exclusively on Beatport

My personal favorite was the track for which the EP is named, “Duma” Although at times it does have a Big Room house sound, Moska didn’t over do it. The melody was like listening to 8-bit Punta or similar Afro-Latin tropical sounds — it’s a great merge of Electronic and Tropical Latin sounds. Moska really took advantage of his Colombian background on this track. If you don’t want to buy the whole EP, I would recommend “Duma” as a must have.

Tough Love Release Their Upbeat Deep House Track “Dreams”

Audio

Tough Love 'Dreams' artwork (low res)

London based producers, Tough Love, have come out with their latest single, “Dreams” The upbeat Deep House tune is a perfect Summer release; great vibes and a melody that you can dance on the beach to.

If upbeat Deep House isn’t your thing and want something more laid back and chill, Audiowhores have remixed the single to suit your needs. Out of the three remixes that form part of the release, my favorite has to be Amtrac’s remix with a faster paced funky melody that puts it over the top.

The single and the remixes are currently available on Beatport and will be up on iTunes later this month on July 21, 2014.

Review: Ivy Queen Ft. J Alvarez – No Hay (Remix)

Audio

nohay

After a long irregular absence in the scene, Ivy Queen is back with a remix of a two year old track “No Hay” Although it is old, the addition of J Alvarez really gives the song new life. J Alvarez’ unique singing style combined with Ivy Queen’s equally unique style come together relatively well. The only issue I had was that this featuring could of been used for a new single, rather than using it on an old song.

Review: Zion & Lennox Ft. Nicky Jam & J Balvin – Solo Tu (Remix)

Audio

Solo Tu (Official Remix) Zion

Veteran duo Zion & Lennox call on Nicky Jam and Colombian Reggaetonero, J Balvin for their remix of “Solo Tu” As the title can imply, the track is a Romantic Reggaeton track. The chorus to “Solo Tu” is the catchiest part of the whole song giving the song that “sticky” factor that makes songs successful. Nicky Jam’s verse is a mix of his styles; rapping and singing which is a nice touch for what the song is trying to aim at. My favorite part of the remix was when Zion and J. Balvin, who both have great voices, came together to sing a little part of the chorus which was a nice touch.

Review: Farruko Ft. Sean Paul & Wisin – Passion Whine (Remix)

Audio

Passion Whine Cover

Farruko and Sean Paul call up Wisin for the remix of “Passion Whine”, a slow tempoed latin-tropical track great for dancing closely. Not much changed besides the addition of Wisin, which isn’t a bad featuring. Wisin’s borderline screaming style is counteracted well by his soft singing portion which saves the remix from killing the original feel of the song. Overall, the remix of “Passion Whine” would be a great addition to anyone’s music library especially for those summer sunset one on one dances.

Dada Life Teases Their New Single “One Smile”

Audio

One Smile Dada Life

We first heard this track at a Dada Life show a few months ago in Washington, D.C. and the crowd at Echostage loved it! The only difference between this version and the version played at the show is the non-filtered vocal part, although okay it wasn’t really necessary — it already sounded great without it. The song is set to release on July 15th, 2014.
