Still sticking to his trademark filthy Dutch electro sounds, Afrojack creates a more melodic buildup to what is one of the most epic drops you’ve heard in a while. Want to make your audience go crazy like you’ve never seen before? All you have to do is drop this track, success guaranteed.

Now Available on Beatport!

Stream: Jacob van Hage & Saint Liz – Voodoo (Original Mix) (Spinnin’ Records)

Purchase on Beatport!

Washington DC – One of the most hyped tracks right now in EDM! Hailing from Holland, Jacob Van Hage took the scene earlier this year with two massive singles called ‘Convoi’ and ‘Spotfire’, which were both released on Sander van Doorn’s beloved imprint Doorn Records (sub-label of Spinnin).
His latest ‘EMP’, hot collaboration with ‘Dyro’ was played by every big Dj around and now its time for Jacob to join forces with Saint Liz and the result is stunning! The smashing summer anthem called ‘Voodoo’ features a tribal drop that is perfectly matched with that hard-hitting melody you won’t get out of your head anytime soon. Bomb alert!

Armin van Buuren : ‘niceee”
Sander van Doorn : ‘Supported in my Identity Radioshow!’
Ferry Corsten : ‘Full support!’
Gareth Emery : ‘Cool tune”
Dada Life : Cool
W&W : ‘BOMB ALERT!!’
Leon Bolier : ‘big dancefloor stuff, supporting’
Judge Jules : Nice track, like it!
Bingo Players : ‘Cool’
Marcel Woods : ‘nice!’
Danny Howard BBC Radio 1 : ‘Quite Dark…but I like it!”
Guy Garret / DMC UK Buzz Chart : ‘So scary, a lesson in how to rattle the strobe light.’

Paris & Simo – Nova (Original Mix) (Preview) (Progressive/Bigroom House)

Washington DC – Two Canadian super talents return to Revealed with a huge bigroom anthem. Having set their path with distinct progressive house sounds and following up on their first release on Revealed called ‘Monk’ they now deliver a massive anthem.

Nova starts of with lots of raw (saw) energy turning into some beautifull pads and chords. Slowly building towards the drop the melody takes a sudden turn adding that spectacular tension of emotion to the mix and ultimately bursting into a huge melodic drop. This is a major league track which should be played out in those bigrooms!

Nova will be out on July 23rd
