Michael Woods does it again by blending his distinctly unique progressive influence with Ferry Corsten’s ft. Aruna “Live Forever”. This track has been featured on the 252nd edition of Ferry’s radio show “Corsten’s Countdown”. Set to be released soon on Flashover Recordings this rendition of an already popular song possesses Aruna’s discernibly sensual vocals on top of melodies accompanied by subtle synth harmonies. The chorus begins to build up and before you know it, a driving force of pure excellence presents itself and begins to pump this tune into dance heaven.
Once again Michael Woods has delivered …

Released today on Dim Mak Records is the hotly anticipated first EP from the young, rising producer Alvin Risk. Dawning plaid shirts and oversized spectacles, I can’t decide what is more enigmatic, his attire or the genre of music he creates. The Skrillex prodigy has been making a name for himself through his giant remixes of “Diminishing Returns”, “Eyes”, “Kill the Noise”, and “Earthquakey People”. While critics, including myself, were quick to associate his sound exclusively with an abundance of sporadic laser-sounding synths, Risk has shown his style to be anything but …

The well known trio of rappers, Orifice Vulgatron, Dj Nonames, and Metropolis also known as Foreign Beggars  have released there debut  on Mau5trap: the label owned by Deadmau5 a.k.a. Joel Zimmerman. I wouldn’t consider this an album by any means, but it isnt a song to be missed in the least. With an 8-Bit hip-hop vibe the Beggars have another hit release. I can see some not liking this, but you must remember that the Beggars are a rap and hip-hop group at there core. In any genre Foreign Beggars have a firm hold in the …

Calling Anjunabeats Worldwide 04 a masterpiece would be a understatement. Known for featuring talented up-and-coming trance artists, this release is powered by the likes of Maor Levi and the long time Anjuna resident Krzysztof Pretkiewicz known as Nitrous Oxide.
Disc 1 is mixed by the Israeli producer Maor Levi who got his start at the ripe age of 11 and then progressed to his first release with “Lital” in 2006 on Anjunadeep. After a mandatory stint in the Israeli Army, Maor came back rejuvenated and started to establish himself in music again. Starting from …

Set to release on April 30, 2012 the club mix of Ashley Wallbridge’s collaboration with Andy Moor “World to Turn” (featuring Gabriela) is a follow up to the smash hit “Faces”. It is receiving support from the likes of Armin van Buuren, Markus Schulz and Gareth Emery. The track itself is melodic like the original mix but has a distinct rhythmic drive that is associated with club mixes.
Needless to say this track is going to be prominent on the dance floors for the foreseeable future.
