Monarchy - Love Get Out Of My Way (Benny Benassi Remix)



Benny Benassi is simply brilliant! Few can capture the energy of a great night and translate it so perfectly into music. Here, Monarchy get the Benassi treatment. Essentially retaining the musicality of the original, Benassi instead opts for a large dose of panache - injecting his trademark dancefloor power into the production. And it works perfectly!

Tom Middleton - 10:10



What a production! Named after the track's duration, Tom Middleton returns with some impressive material. After a slow-building five minute introduction, things start to really take shape. The church bell motif returns and the introduction of a spine-tingling bass line alters the harmonic structure. There's a solid, epic feel to the work that's fierce and familiar. Looking forward to the remixes.

David Tort & Norman Doray - Chase The Sun



It was only a matter of time before Planet Funk's Chase The Sun got a five star reversioning. Placing the familiar vocal hook in a shiny new package, Norman Doray and David Tort create a digital firestorm that's perfect Main Room material. Teasing the vocals in gradually, a lot of new elements are brought to the table including excitement-building sonic grows and musically complex counter-melodies. Well worth checking out!

Dirty South feat. Rudy - Phazing (Tiesto Remix)



The world's biggest DJ gets his hands on Dirty South's Phazing. The original is a pleasantly crafted and instantly likable production, relying on a John Barry sample to keep it moving. Here, Tiƫsto fattens things up a bit, adding panache and a melodic break designed to lift the roof off a dancefloor. It's a slick remix that hits all the right buttons.

The Chemical Brothers - Another World



An atmospheric and soothingly laid-back release from The Chemical Brothers. Exploring slower tempos and euphoric chord progressions, a bed of warm synth harmonies form the backing to reflective vocals. Overall, tastefully composed and tonally on target.

Paul C vs Ryan Inglis - Look Forward (Original Mix)



This is great! Paul Canter is a rising UK artist and the man behind some impressive productions lately. Look Forward packs an amazing punch. While occupying familiar electro-house territory, it manages to bring just enough melodic panache and production creativity to offer a truly compelling and exhilarating listening experience. On display are some ear-popping melodic hooks and digital crescendos that translate to pure dance floor mayhem. Love it!

Swedish House Mafia - One



Simply superb! Swedish House Mafia hit all the right buttons with One. It's an initially bass-driven production with a focus on intensity, but cleverly switches gears transforming into a Main Room melodic monster. There's a reason why Swedish House Mafia are top of their game right now, and this track's a great showcase of their style.
