Canada is proving itself to be a very prolific A&R ground for VANDIT of late. Following Arnej’s co-op with boss-man Paul van Dyk last year, and more recently Eddie Bitar’s double-pack stomp-fest ‘Metal Mouth’ & ’Meloque’ last month, here comes Giddy to add to VANDIT’s Canuck influx!
Making his debut with ‘Stanza’ on Burner Records back in 2010, more recently Giddy’s been coproducing with regular studio compadre Jamie K. That union’s seen them ink tracks to labels as varied as Holland’s Black Hole Recordings (with ‘We’ve Come So Far’ & ‘Veritas’) and the UK’s Toolroom, with last year’s ‘Barrage’.
Back riding solo for this release, fans of Giddy’s more, melodically uplifting, sun-kissed vibe are in for gift with the release of ‘Halcyon’. With its quick catch/instant appeal harmonies, wistful flute-ish minor melodies and dancefloor whipping mainline, it summons summer at a good three months earlier than can reasonably be expected!
Dimitri Kechagias review: The beloved record label Vandit Records headed from the pioneer dj & producer & radio host Paul van Dyk continues its amazing varied releases schedule ahead of the Miami Winter Music Conference. The brand new release that is available on beatport now is the melodic dreamy and super beautiful and sweet Halcyon by the Canadian Giddy. The release comes in two different shapes and sizes for your to choose and play. The original mix is a wonderful hybrid of progressive house and trance in one explosive package. Chunky groovy house beats, electro inspired basslines and hi-nrg synthy layers that work perfectly to create that instantly danceable groove and rhythm that easily carry you away your mind to summery sunny places like Miami for instance. The breakdown reveals the super romantic piano melody that has charm and lusciousness. When the euphoric synthy layers come in you know that there is no point to return back. The climax is euphoric, optimistic, hands in the air and absolutely happy for that crazy night out when you want to let it loose and enjoy every single beat of this very colorful and sunny beauty. The 2nd remix included is Short Break (No quitar edit). Its the same version a bit shorter breakdown for those jocks who want to reach the drop earlier because their crowd is anticipating and demand more insant gratification. Quality balearic progressive trancer to give good times guaranteed! #PureGold Love iT
Forthcoming on VANDIT records
