Filled with stand-out vocal shots, spectacular rhythms, and a killer sound set, 'Need U Around' is what Juicy M hits up Armada Music with. Hot off the heels of previous single 'Obey', this cut is another display of Juicy M's production skill and knack for creating momentous records. Your perfect club night is only one play away.

Roaring fiercely as the official anthem of Electric Zoo, this catchy song is the brainchild of Codeko and songstress RAPHAELLA. Filled with stunning vocals, great chord progressions and wild rhythms, it releases the world from its cage and shows all how much joy music like this can bring. You'll be 'Walking With Lions' at Electric Zoo this year.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]One of the most impressive Aruna singles is finally released with additional incredible remixes. Firstly Specialist Sound provide the spacey slow drum n bass chill out version that is perfect to close your eyes and trip out and imagine that you watch sunrise from your favourite spot in the world. Relaxing and liquid this version will please any true music lover. Kayoh vs. Aruna collaborate to provide the dubstep/trap friendly infused version with lazy slow jamming grooves, orchestral cinematic strings, piano chords and the magnificent vocals by Aruna. Kue remix translate the original into an emotional future house banger with very smooth breakdown with melancholic piano and breakbeat underneath followed by wobbly in your face bass focused drop. If you like mainstage prime time weapons Dynastrax & Party Killers transform the track into the ultimate hard hitting weapon of mass destruction with rave style organ riffs, pounding basslines, thumping grooves and breakdown that is magical to say the least. Finally Daun Giventi service an excellent proglifting trance remix that is my favourite of course. Smooth pulsating basslines, bouncy electro infused grooves, luscius breakdown to relax and float until the beat kicks back for an euphoric climax that will please your senses. #PureGold Love It [/content]
Mala's Deep Medi Musik has announced the full line up of the label’s talent appearing at the DEEP MEDi 10 event at Electric Brixton on Saturday 1st October 2016.
Helping celebrating 10 years and one hundred releases from the groundbreaking label will be A/T/O/S, Benny Ill, Bukez Finezt, Commodo, Compa, Goth-Trad, HiJak, Jack Sparrow, Jay 5ive, K Man the Phantom, Kahn, Kaiju, Mala, Neek, Quest, Silkie, Sir Spyro, Truth, plus special guests Spooky, and hosts Crazy D, Rider Shafique, and Sun of Selah.
Since it's inception a decade ago, the London label has firmly cemented its place in dubstep history and continues to discover and nurture some of the most innovative, interesting and prominent names from the underground bass scene.
Mala created DEEP MEDi MUSIK as a broader outlet for his talents as a producer, curator and tastemaker following the success of his other label DMZ.
Deep Medi houses a wide range of producers with a common thread, which label manager Steph describes as ‘music that you can feel’ and the Deep Medi name is synonymous with the deep, warm meditative sounds that can be heard at their club nights.
Mala began spreading the dubstep message in South London in the early ‘00s, when the scene was in its infancy. He helped build a community of like-minded individuals, committed to the exploration of subsonic frequencies via record shop Big Apple, Club Forward>> at Plastic People, and pirate station Rinse FM. He formed production outfit Digital Mystikz with Coki and launched the DMZ night with Loefah and St Pokes, the first club night to bring dubstep to a wider audience.
As dubstep moved from a tiny collective to a national and then international scene, Mala was at the forefront of the wave. Deep Medi was formed and Mala chose to release his long player ‘Return II Space’ on the label, which took things to a whole new level. His music connected with like-minded artists and has collaborated with NYC’s Francois K, Moritz Von Ozwald from Basic Channel, Grace Jones, and Lee “Scratch” Perry amongst many others.
However, scenes, gig sizes, notable collaborations and major motion picture soundtracks are milestones of little importance to Mala; what remains important to him is his deep connection with music and his ability to create frequencies and to create a blissfully powerful, unifying sound.
Deep Medi events are an intimate and authentic representation of modern day sound system culture, where exclusives, dubplates and a spirit of unity are all delivered through a heavyweight sound system, with Neuron providing the Void Sound at this event.
A favorite of Myon & Shane 54’s for many years now, SNR debuts a brand new song with his brother Evin Skye on the latest imprint of Ride Recordins: Slowride! Can You See explores a new musical direction for the prolific San Francisco based producer which also retains the melodic signature that he’s so well known for. Up-and-coming artist Hyraxe delivers an incredibly energetic rendition that launches the original idea into the sky.
Dimitri Kechagias review:
[review top="1"]
[item value="10"]SNR & Evin Skye - Can You See incl. Hyraxe remix[/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Ride recordings is expanding even more and after the PopRide introduce the sublabel Slowride. We all understand from the name that the sounds on this label will be more electronic/chill out and less club-oriented. SNR & Evin Skye collaborate for Can You See. The original mix is an atmospheric slow jam with smooth laid back groove and great pop touched male vocal on top. Superb synths, electro pop influences and even some trap elements make this record a late night essential anthem. If you want something still Slow but a bit more hard and rough you can choose Hyraxe remix that goes for a rougher harsh ride with dubstep influences and great cinematic atmosphere. Both tracks can be easily included in a film soundtrack. Great mesmerising vocals, positive lyrics, emotional Slowride mission complete. #PureGold Love It[/content]
Allowing for the welcome return of KhoMha's 'Restart' with Mike Schmid, William Black offers some of the most enthralling atmospheres we've heard in a long, long time. Blending hulking synths with emotional chords, heart-wrenching lyrics, and a batch of Dubstep-flavored rhythms, the L.A.-based talent delivers something ground-breaking and truly captivating. Putting 'Restart' on repeat is a no-brainer.

[item value="10"]KhoMha feat. Mike Schmid - Restart(William Black remix) [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Restart by KhoMha feat. Mike Schmid returns with an additional dubstep remix offered by William Black who does his best to impress us all. Melodic and spacious with cinematic arrangement in the breakdown while on the drop the distorted basslines add movement and awake your senses straight away. This is your moment to Restart particularly after a hot night out while this tripping out version plays in your car! Magnificent vocals, exquisite performance and modern remix to explode. It can become part of a film or TV series soundtrack for sure. #PureGold Love it [/content]
Through club-wowers like ‘Strangers’ (alongside Seven Lions & Tove Lo), their hit Cole Plante collabs, ‘Lie To Me’ & ‘If I Fall’ and the Kyler England-sung ‘Summer Of Love’, Myon & Shane 54 have been sending it out of the park of late. Now, squaring up for their 2016 production adventures, the Hungarian duo have teamed up with a very special guest vocalist for a track that’s every bit as compelling! Haley, who’s previously lent her spiritually elevating vocals to tracks like Kaskade & Tiësto’s ‘Only You’ and Kaskade & Deadmau5’s ‘Move For Me’ & ‘I Remember’ factors her evermore - recognizable vocals into ‘Round We Go’s irrepressible, irresistible equation.
Myon & Shane’s high-on-life, EDM-inclined riffs, rolling drums and electrifying production build ‘Round We Go’ up to lofty heights. Haley meanwhile infiltrates the track with her catchy vocal gravities, seizing its centreground with a song you’ll be singing for weeks.
More horsepower than a stable of Sea Biscuits and more uplift than a dozen 747s, ‘Round We Go’ is an outdoors, open-air anthem slamdunk in the making. Better still, you can grab your copy from today. In this second remix package, there are 5 additional interpretations.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Myon & Shane 54 with Haley have produced one of the biggest anthems ever called Round We Go. The vocal and the lyrics were merged perfectly with the heavenly atmosphere that Myon & Shane 54 are so good to deliver. The 2nd remix package introduce the track to a whole new audience. Firstly Tristan Chase takes us for a beautiful ride on the deep melodic house route with minimal chunky grooves, deep pulsating basslines, strong melodies, cinematic strings and the full vocal treatment. Smooth, soothing, relaxing and truly summery perfect for your summer holidays. Tom Crusher Remix introduce the track to the mainstage family with big thumping electro touched basslines, pounding hard grooves and the original melodies while the drop is absolutely earthshaking. Maddow Remix is old school Dubstep with heavy distorted basslines, rocking drums and a lot of emotional sounds. Finally John Lock moves to the trap direction and unleashes dreamy synths, warm sounds and funky danceable trap beats to keep the younger audience swinging along. #PureGold Love It [/content]
"Stupid Kansas," The Bearded Man thought. "I hate this place! It's so black and white, and that one neighbor lady sure is a biiiiiaaaaatch amirite!? I wish I could get the hell outta here!" Careful what you wish for, beardy boy! Because shortly thereafter, a tornado stormed in and something something Wizard of Oz reference. Skipping a lot of boring parts, The Bearded Man found himself in a land of not just color, but TECHNICOLOR! Again, fairly boring stuff on its own. The real story here, the *real* story is what happened after he landed. He was greeted by Welcome Wolf, *obviously*, but then, much to his delight, he found himself face to face with dozens of the cutest little munchkins you've ever seen. The Lollipop Guild, the Lullaby League... the gang was all there. And boy, could these fine little people sing! With a serenade that would make a hardened criminal weep, their beautiful, pitched-up chorus was more than enough to get you going.

Over 50.000.000 combined youtube views with an official videoclip that in 4 days generated over 2.700.000 views alone. More than 133.000.000 streams on Spotify. And this is just the beginning for the new monster from the magic duo.
The catchy vocals this time are on the british newcomer Daya, who is buzzing a lot lately all over Europe.
Since the original version is veeeery radio friendly this package helps the festival and clubs with remixes by the likes of W&W, Zomboy, Ricky Remedy and Ephwurd.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]The Chainsmokers are the new stars in the prog house scene and their latest track is top trap style anthem with the vocal by Daya. The remix package is truly diverse and expand the audience of the original. The unstoppable W&W are cranking the stereo system with a top version that starts all trap and groovy and then in the climax moves towards harddance house style direction. Ephwurd Remix is the perfect deep house/future house version with pitched vocals, punchy basslines and top breakdown with big strings, epic synths and climax to die for in true rave house style. Rick Remedy plays on the same terrain is the original with faster basslines and sexy laidback rhythm. If you want tougher version Zomboy remix is dubstep at its best with metallic grooves, ecstatic basslines and great atmosphere and sound design. Its big surprise that the package doesn't include uplifting prog house versions. Love It[/content]
Looking for creative inspiration comes Lena like new but also sometimes unusual ways. Other countries or even continents, surprising collaborations with other artists - all are welcome and absolutely desirable influences, which are reflected in her music. Lena's songwriting of her fourth album took place alongside Berlin and Los Angeles and London, where she worked with renowned songwriters in recent months. Here she could far from her homeland compose in peace intense new songs and melodies. For her album "Crystal Sky" Lena picked up support from producer team BIFFCO from Brighton and the Beatgees - each are masters of their craft.
Now Lena is not only with her new single "Beat To My Melody" in her wings, but presents us with the same title a whole remix EP. "Beat To My Melody" is a Lena's absolute favourite songs and was along with Sam Preston (inter alia songwriter Olly Murs) and Kat Vinter in London in the studio of Jonny Coffer (inter alia songwriter of Naughty Boy, Sam Smith, Leona Lewis). For the radio edit of "Beat To My Melody" Lena brought the successful producer team Madizin on board who has worked with Tokio Hotel, Alvaro Soler, Leyk & Decoy, Sarah Connor and Glasperlenspiel. Just recently Madizin went platinum with their remix of "Horny Life".
It seems almost as if to start at the same rapid pace as the last has stopped, the new year for Lena. The impressive success of the last single "Wild And Free", which was the title song from the huge German film blockbuster success "F * ck You, Goethe 2" and has reached gold status, the new single Beat to my melody is in no way inferior.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Lena has won the Eurovision song contest with the playful song Satellite and her career has progressed a lot and now she has reached the point that can travel to various countries and work with the best songwritters. Her song Beat To My Melody in its original form is a cheerful track that has great story to tell to the listener and the sound is floating and dreamy so certainly radio stations will adore it. The remix package is extensive with Madizin delivering beautiful tropical house version with xylophone melodies and tropical grooves and exotic orient colour. Younotus remix is one of the strongest with deep pulsating basslines, techy grooves and melodramatic strings. Sterio goes all the way to the dubstep/trap zone for a tripping out version with sexy smooth edge. Dayne S remix is used on the music video and is the most accomplished version with creative artistic touches and irresistible groove for dancing in the sunny Greek beaches. Robin Grubert remix is sweet and pop friendly too. Great package of a song that can make the surprise hit in Europe. Love It[/content]
Having rapidly earned a reputation as one of Tritonal's finest, and most innovative productions to date - 'Blackout' emerges once again with an expansive remix package offering up 8 re-imagining's from a carefully curated selection of both scene heavyweights & inspiring up-and-comers.
Leading with the Tiesto-supported & truly unique FTampa remix 'Blackout' moves through a surging House remake thanks to Madison Mars' captivating artistry which has already received plays from Don Diablo and others, before teeing up for a bass-heavy rework from the Trap scene's praised LAXX.
Pricking the ears of the likes of Armin van Buuren, ReOrder's Trance take brings on-board the Slovakian producer's established approach whilst Drum & Bass' beloved Cyantific provides an electrifying dance floor weapon already supported on BBC Radio One.
Enhanced's very own Canadian wunderkid Alex Klingle turns in a stylish, layered production whilst the Diplo-supported Arkadiian rounds off the release alongside Justin Oh in two brilliant, genre-defying versions.
Having proved itself as one of Tritonal's most recognizable & revered tracks to date, 'Blackout' only continues to impress with the arrival of the official remixes.

Having already proven its worth by emerging victorious out of the Beatport Remix Competition, Russian talent Incube more than deserved an official release for his remix of Michael Woods' masterpiece. Incube's signature treatment involved the record getting a Dubstep-infused makeover, overflowing with spellbinding atmospheres and hard-hitting drums. In short, it sounds like a true 'Warrior'!

Tritonal continue their meteoric rise after a 41 city sold out North American tour and four Billboard Dance top ten singles as well as with their innovative productions, awe-inspiring live shows, radio & TV accolades and chart-topping releases, the Texan based duo open 2016 with one of their fan’s biggest talking points from 2015, the mysterious ‘ID’ played during their Tritonia Radio 100 celebration in Las Vegas + in their live sets for the last few months. One of Chad & Dave's most anticipated releases to date - 'Blackout' with the incredible voice of Steph Jones, is finally here.
'Blackout' sees Tritonal teaming up with Steph Jones' spine-tingling vocals and assembling a perfectly balanced, flexing bass-heavy Trap influenced production, whilst remaining distinctly Tritonal with impeccable melodic turns to result in an end-product which is perfectly tuned between peak-time energy and sing-a-long euphoria.
‘Blackout’, with its ground-breaking, cross-over production confirms that there are no signs of Tritonal’s rise ever slowing down as 2016 promises to hit new highs for the duo.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Tritonal is one of the most dynamic duos out of Texas, USA that have influenced a whole generation of producers with their unique very personal sound. From the trance roots to the progressive house and the dubstep Blackout one thing remains the same and that is Tritonal ability to compose magnificently emotionally touching feel good melodies. Blackout is one of their most experimental tracks with the version that has just being released be on the leftfield ambient dubstep trap Dj Snake style. Very emotional melodies, superb basslines and wonderful flow that transcends the listener easily to a world that there is Blackout.

As a gathering of high-octane sound sets, gorgeous atmospheres, and Moscow Noir’s impressive vocal contribution, Antillas’ ‘Satellite (Koro)’ sees two different, yet equally smashing treatments. Eximinds takes the hands-on approach with a ravaging bassline and a mesmerizing breakdown, while Avii’s experimental take on the swell original gives off an entirely
Dimitri Kechagias review: Antillas is back on his own celebrated imprint IHU records featuring Moscow Noir called Satellite (Koro). The two remixes released in the coming of the new year will certainly impress the melodic trance followers. First of all is the beloved Eximinds who add their Russian talent and deliver a stunning energetic remake of pumping grooves, pulsating basslines, energetic electro infused kicks and wide variety of synthy layers. The vocal is very emotional and is delivered with certain theatrical tone that will appeal to those who like melodramatic touch in their trance. AVI remix interestingly rather than moving in the obvious trance direction deliver an excellent bass heavy dubstep meets breaks style version perfect for the more leftfield parts of your set when you wish to relax the minds and carry your listener to your own magical Kingdom. Quality package from start to finish! #PureGold 10/10 Love IT

Lenachka's vocals are completely reworked while a bass heavy groove takes hold of BRKLYN's Original to result in one seriously funky remix. Next up is Enhanced favourite Culture Code who injects his trademark, heartfelt melodic style alongside his customary bass-heavy tendencies. Lenachka's vocals take on an ethereal form alongside sparring bass notes and techy FX.

Their latest release GAMMA GAMMA is transformed into 5 different versions that have different appeal to them. First of all the dub step remix comes from Brillz packed with aggressive stretched basslines and superb application of the cool tribal ethnic vocals and the big anthemic synthy hook. It can be played easily by trap jocks as well. J-Trick remix drives the original into the wild territory of the mainstage electro house with electro sharp basslines, fat edgy kick drums and massive recreation of the original theme in true rave style. Get ready for the energetic dirty dutch house drop that will crack up your stereo.

Jenaux Remix is the perfect chill out/ambient lounge version with great break beat section and the top anthemic melody on top along with the ethnic tribal vocals.

The beloved trance legend deliver a very spacious sparkling driving highly energetic remix with thumping driving basslines, pounding grooves and of course magical breakdown followed by euphoric full on adrenaline charging climax the way that only Ferry knows how to do it! #PureGold Love it
Aruna's 'The End' saw the American producer/singer/DJ burst back onto the scene with another highly anticipated release, teaming up again with Dutch talent Husman. The track's raw performance and emotional lyric was an inspiring account of hitting rock bottom and fighting her way back up, a story which was profiled in-depth in an exclusive and highly buzzed about interview with EDM tastemaker publication Magnetic Magazine, "Why Aruna Disappeared", which went on to become one of their top trending articles for several months running.
Passing the torch on her heartfelt story then was no easy feat, but with an impressive variety of pioneering producers, 'The End (Remixes)' sees Aruna's anthem reframed in five unique new ways.
Beginning with Canadian Alex Klingle, 'The End' takes on a gliding new Progressive from, filled with elegant melodies & poignant chords which have brought the producer to such critical acclaim of late.
