With arms wide open, dance land embraced the 14 year old talent of producer Erik Arbores. Now that the dust around his ‘Bliss’ single and ‘Take It’ E.P. has settled, the Dutchman shows he’s no hit-wonder, with the marvelous ‘Babylon’ and ‘On The Move’.

For the young university student, a dream has come true. His tracks find the support of the international DJ league and radio stations, he has DJ’ed to a 5.000 strong crowd at Holland’s Dance 4 Life event as well as other successful parties and is now well on the way of building a solid career in music. The anticipation for the follow-up of his first hit is sky high, but Erik knows how to deliver.

From the smooth and playful ‘Babylon’ to the energetic ‘On The Move’, each piece shows a maturing sound and a stellar growth of the gifted producer. Young boys grow up fast, don’t they?

Dimitri Kechagias review: Erik Arbores is a proof that those who have the talent and belief in themselves at the end of the day, they will make it. Particularly if they are super gifted from god then the success will come to their door even before completing their University studies. Zouk, the leading prog house label part of Armada Music empire in Holland releases for the masses to enjoy the brand new EP by Erik Arbores who is ready once again to rock the big rooms with his deep understanding of the real needs of the modern dancefloors. Babylon is an interesting chunky electro prog house smasher with squeaky riff playing the main role and driving the track to its maximum and out of proportion. On The Move, that is the main track for me on this EP,  is destined to put your body in motion. It is big room epic prog house with super large synthy breakdown and what is more a cheeky playful ravey synthy riff is added to blow the roofs of clubs and destroy some home radios as well. Big room and driving with Dirty Dutch touches is an explosive mixture so  better wear your brand new shoes cause you will be On The Move for a long time. Love it!
