Shakira & Rihanna – Can’t Remember To Forget You (Starkillers Remix)
The baseline on this track fits so well. Overall, a nice Progressive remix from Starkillers. He really took the vocals and made good use of them without sacrificing Shakira’s and Rihanna’s great vocals.
Review: LA Riots & Polina – Kamikaze [Single]
Drop:
It isn’t a “HOLY SH*T WHERE DID THAT COME FROM” type of drop but, it is still pretty decent. What really stood out for me was the kick used, it has some pretty nice reverb. The trap part drops into a Dutch House / Moombah- like sound which is pretty dope to say the least.
Originality:
Yes, it sounds like a Big Room track but, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s unoriginal. What really stood out to me besides the vocals, was that instead of regular “Big House Percussion” LA Riots & Polina brought some Dutch House styled percussion which was a nice touch.
Sound Quality:
“Kamikaze” has a good mix of hard and soft sounds giving the track a good sense of contrast between “Drops” and the chorus.
Vocals:
Pretty good vocals on this track, the lyrics scream Sing-A-Long-ability so if this song blows up don’t be too surprised at the crowd’s feedback when you go to shows.
Worth The Buy/Download:
This is one of those tracks that sounds pretty decent but, doesn’t leave a huge impression on you. If the song receives enough playing time at shows and is pushed well, it has the possibility of being a hit, at least during Festival season. I personally would buy this track for Dutch House influenced Big Room feel of it, in other words the track isn’t too cliché.

Review: Swanky Tunes – Pump (Original Mix) [Single]
Drop:
Swanky Tunes set us up for a really good drop with their intro and build up. I personally believed it was going to be something utterly amazing and mind blowing because it was so good but, when it finally dropped I wasn’t so blown away. It isn’t horrible but, it’s not amazing either. Leaves me in between a “Eh” and Echostage guy “wtf”.
Originality:
I wouldn’t say it isn’t unoriginal but, it is a bit weak on the whole “creativity’ side of things. It’s missing something.
Sound Quality:
The song doesn’t sound bad but, like I said before, it’s missing something. You get so excited for what’s to come and then you’re kind of disappointed. The sound of the intro and the build-up periods are great! The only issue I have is with the ‘drop’ part, it’s a buzz kill.
Worth The Buy/Download: (Purchase Here – Beatport)
Depends, if you’re a Swanky Tunes fan sure — do your thing. I personally wasn’t in love with this track, as in it’s not a track I would put on repeat or listen to everyday. I’ve heard better tracks from Swanky Tunes and sadly this isn’t another track I would add to my library.
