tThis is for sure the danceflorr killer for summer 2014

Tear The Roof Up" is a progressive house anthem with a catchy twist. It's that simple. And that cool!

Dimitri Kechagias review: Alesso is currently rocking the big soundsystems of the huge summer festivals including mainstage performances at both weekends of Tomorrowland festival. Tear The Roof Up is what any dj must play in his mainstage set to ignite the crowd and keep them hooked. Powerful chunky meaty housey grooves, bouncy pumping energetic basslines, clever synthy leads that magnetise the crowd and robotic style distorted vocals that repeat again and again the title of the track. With mixture of the progressive house anthemic side and the naughty groovy agressive side of electro house, Tear The Roof Up is very credible return at the very heart of the global dance scene and very soon we will welcome the track at the top of the UK Top 40 as well. Alesso has bright future ahead of him and as it seems he doesnt compromise his sound yet. This monster anthem was played at the 1st & 2nd Tomorrowland weekend in Belgium with crazy crowd reactions! #PureGold Love iT

The Dada's are back by public demand!

With the tremendous featuring of Sebastian Bach (formerly frontman of the Skid Row band), "Born To Rage" is exactly what the title suggests: an energetic hymn for the dancefloor.

Go kill your dancefloors over the weekend with this. 

You won't regret it!










Dimitri Kechagias review: Dada Life is one of the hottest dj duos out from Sweden with exceptional tracks so far! Their productions are energetic, powerful and always with great guest singers. They cultivate a rioting anarchic image for themselves and their music videos and live performances are characterised from its hedonistic humour side. Their track Born To Rage is powerful, dynamic, electro house with an edge at its very best with huge performance by Sebastian Bach who stands out with his vocals. Just imagine to dance a long with your friends in a summer festival with this hands in the air jumping and pumping anthem. Fat kicks, rough energetic aggressive to the core basslines, robotic style vocals along with Sebastian who take over and elevate the track to the next higher level. The drop is absolutely gorgeous with euphoric synths and tough grooves that vibrate energy and positivity all over the place. Top remixes by Mercer and Binder. Mercer toughens the grooves and the electrified basslines while Binders deliver the finest version with playful use of the main synthy lead and great build up towards the drop that will shock you big time! Summer festival anthem guaranteed! Love it

Spring showed up its charming side in the last few weeks.  The appropriate time for the return of Klang Karussell with their new single  Netzwerk ( Falls Like Rain )", which will see the light of day on May 9.

With their  ​​flair for melodic extravagance and matching soul elements , Adrian Held and Tobias Rieser present the successor single after the mega success of their debut single Sonnentanz, which sold over 1.2 million copies worldwide. Their new single within a very short time seems to find significant 
'appeal '. The instrumental version was clicked on YouTube a long time ago about a million times and all eyes have since focused on the newly produced vocal track.

Klang Karussell are leaving room for vocal brilliance on their new single that they already demonstrated impressively with the Sonnentanz collaboration (Sun Do not Shine) feat. Will Heard . "Network ( Falls Like Rain ) " certainly contributes the same handwriting and ties seamlessly with the producer qualities. The single is an equally atmospherical , as well as danceable summer anthem that gives our rhythm a little extra forward momentum.

"Network ( Falls Like Rain ) " is a detached crossover of guitars and banjo sounds, African vocal segments and synthetic Beat - Waves . Klang Karussell debut album called Netzwerk will be out 25th of July.

Dimitri Kechagias review: The beloved Klangkarussell  responsible for the mega global anthem Sonnentanz return with another super beautiful track  called Netzwerk. The original version is a magnificent deep tech house beauty that will carry you away for a nice relaxing calming sweet journey. Excellent tribal beats, brilliant percussion, country music style guitar riffs, cinematic strings and the nice twist on it is the appearance of the well known African chants that have been used again in the past in dance tracks but on this track sound really in place and with purpose too. The result is a modern futuristic warm, sunny, and hypnotic production that calms your senses and manage easily to make you feel relaxed and totally free to enjoy the danceable rhythm and irresistibly engaging groove that invite you to dance the summer days and nights away. The brand new vocal version is called Falls Like Rain and the vocal added is very attractive for the ear as it sounds quite retro, romantic and totally intoxicated. Ten Ven remix is the more bouncy chunky bass focused version with guitar licks and moody haunting basslines combined beautifully with the synths and cinematic strings along with the fantastic vocal and plenty of subbass as well.  Storming remix that is underground and equally magical as the original version for eclectic ears! Camo & Krooked Remix is a very beautiful chill out experimental version that goes back to the basics with minimal beats, break beats, guitar riffs and excellent application of the original vocals. It will make you feel like liquid and absolutely haunted from it. Adam Freeland Remix moves on the forward thinking indie dance / electronic sound with 80's Depeche Mode / New Order electro pop sensibilities. From the original track he uses only the chorus of the vocals and he builds his trancy energetic pulsating pure bliss for electronic music fans version that will get many plays this summer.  It's one of those tracks that you wish strongly to get immediately transferred on the seashore for beach party and night swimming.  #PureGold Love iT

During the past MTV Movie Awards Ellie Goulding, together with Zedd presented her new single "Beating Heart". The single in 10 days has reached over 11.000.000 views. 

Now a package of remixes is ready to help the braves that dare to challenge the dancefloor with this single.

From 2 Step to Deep House, from Drum'n'Bass to Progressive House, there is one for each and everybody.

Enjoy and keep the heart beating!














Dimitri Kechagias review: Ellie Goulding is a wonderful pop start with personality and very unique voice that is clearly associated with her as it happens with voices of big pop stars like Annie Lennox for example.Ellie always surprises and her singles include very strong remixes. Motez remix is an excellent laidback lounge style deep house production with elements of UK garage and 90's balearic house.Its the perfect bass driven track for your sunny summer dj sets. Vindata remix is the exceptional 2 step version that sounds experimental and like a breath of fresh air. Very unique super groovy and pleasurable sounding track that combines chill out ambient landscapes with smashing crushing beats and basslines. Dexcell remix is the fantastic drum n bass translation that starts with great atmospheric cinematic intro and slowly carry us away to magical dreamy places. If you don't mind drifting away for a while you are going to enjoy this and feel like liquid. Last but not least Cahill from Liverpool UK service his powerful progressive house version with very sexy groove, super nice funky basslines and fantastic synths combines with summery melodies. This is such an excellent remix package including fantastic versions to satisfy any pop dance/ EDM lover. Love iT

Tiësto's new single "Wasted" premiered in the UK l at Pete Tong's celebrated BBC Radio 1 show.

The song features a rich, pop-influenced sound, but also retains the euphoric energy of the harder club anthems that Tiësto is known for. With "Wasted" he presents his precise production talent and masterful sense of chart hits again. An incredibly infectious hook, melodic synthlines, anthemic crescendos and a throbbing bassline - "Wasted" has all the typical features of a further crossover chart Smash Hit.

After the stunning success of his single "Red Lights" - the first of his songs ever to reach # 6 at the top 10 of the Official UK Singles Chart. With the prospect of his new, long awaited album, "Wasted" is another hit guaranteed  that will impress the listeners.



From the new album "A Town Called Paradise" pre-order coming 13th May, released 13th June





Dimitri Kechagias review: Tiesto is one of those artists that manage to write his own chapter in the history of electronic dance music. He is very lucky to have in his career many first ideas that other djs followed them. For instance he was the first to organise a concert with him playing at the stage not in his natural place that is the dj booth in the  club but in a stadium in front of thousands clubbers who came to stare at him as they do when they go in a concert to watch an orchestra or a pop artist. In that way he immediately raised the profile of dj profession as a job that deserves the rock star status. Also he was first to release those concerts on DVD's and in that way to spread their influence all over the world. Tiesto is the first for trying new ideas and his track Wasted is definitely not something you expect from a dj who plays fat banging beats and booming heavy basslines. He decides to release a track that doesn't target the clubs but clearly targets the radio stations and the audience who is not very familiar with EDM and definitely with this track he focus in the USA market. With 112 BPM the track is very slow for a club track but we all hope for a massive remix package that will allow the fellow djs to play it in their dj sets. One of the highlights is Matthew Koma who has one of the finest voices in EDM and his performance in every single track he takes part manage to elevate the instrumental to another higher level. Rough beats are included, tough basslines are smashed in, euphoric synths are injected and nice rock guitar riffs are melted into it. Chart HIT 100%  with American flavour! Now the package comes complete with additional fat club remixes. Mike Mago is on remix duties and he does his best to take us deep down with his awesome deep tech translation. Minimal techy groovy beats, deep haunting basslines, 90's acid house influences, pitched down vocals and great atmosphere perfect to relax and drink your favourite fruit punch in a cool beach bar. It smells summer holidays and dark sleazy Wasted nights out. TST remix turns the original into a power stormer with heavy hard house drums, aggressive punchy basslines and cool breakdown with piano chords and the outstanding vocal along with euphoric synthy stabs. The drop is hard as nails so better get all the precautions needed cause you are about to rock n roll hard with hands in the air and you guessed it right. You will feel totally and utterly Wasted. Last but not least the beatport chart hit man Ummet Uzcan. His version is playful and perfect to party hard all night long. He applies melodic pop touched breaks with summer party guitar riffs combined with twisted euphoric synths folled by harder electro house drops with wonky basslines and bouncy kicks that work like a treat in any summer festival situation. Excellent remix package to create havoc on any dancefloor! #PureGold Love iT

She also went straight to number 3 on the Hype Machine charts and is a Special Delivery from cult DJ Annie Mac BBC Radio 1 From this woman , we may therefore expect something ! Her style is a tribute to singers like Michael Jackson, Martha Wash , CeCe Peniston and Robin S, but also newer influences such as Disclosure and Hot Natured can be found.

Dimitri Kechagias review:  Electronic Dance Music is conquering USA and that can only be a good thing for artists, djs, labels but also for the USA public that will be exposed again to  the virtues of EDM. Now the latest EDM influenced sensation is called Kiesza and her voice is incredible and ear captivating. One of those voices that you hear on the radio by chance and you let down your ironing or your toothbrush and you wonder who she is that lovely girl. You run to find your tablet or switch on your PC and start browsing around the net to find more about her exotic  name. By chance on YouTube you find her music video for Hideaway and you are really blown away by her natural beauty that seems to go hand in hand with her great voice. The track itself is a great tribute to the early 90's rennaisance house sound that it seems to permeates everything at the moment. Its the calming, romantic, feel good sound that reminds to many their youth and for others is again the beginning for their EDM discovery years. House as it used to be really underground and basic with chunky beats, funky basslines, hi-nrg synths and awesome rhythm that you can not deny its impact on your mood easily. You can play in the morning, in the afternoon and in the night before bed time. It is Just so good for YOU! Now the package becomes even larger with additional remixes. First of all the amazing Gorgon City who deliver the magic deep tech house futuristic sound via retro influences with techy chunky groovy, deep funky basslines, distorted vocal samples, warm strings and emotional electronic synths. The result is a bass heavy feel good anthem that shines and will certainly will become the highlight moment in your house sets. Zam Samuels remix starts with a beautiful just vocal intro and the track moves with exploding old school piano riffs and hands in the air euphoric section that will perform greatly in clubs and radio stations. It's feel good version to the maximum perfect for spring and summer by the beach sets! The latest remix to add in the package is the magnificent Bixel Boys interpretation that remains on the same deep house / 90's garage house infused modern sound that starts really soulful with piano chords and then goes really deep, minimal, chunky, groovy, sexy and melodic as well. It remains summery, sunkissed, playful and absolutely breathtaking. The vocals will remain classic that's for sure and Kiesza is the new pop icon recalling Madonna in the start of her career.  #PureGold Love it

This track is by Gregor Salto featuring Saxsymbol & Todorov and is taken from the album Fatboy Slim presents 'Bem Brasil'

Released 26th May














Dimitri Kechagias review: It is such a big pleasure always to review something with the name of the legend and beloved Fat Boy Slim in it. Of course on this track is not the producer but the selector for the album Bem Brazil that is coming and will coincide with the FIFA World Cup in Brazil.  The brilliant Gregor Salto feat Saxsymbol & Todorov deliver what we can call as typical Latin sound combined with modern EDM elements that will definitely make you dance like there is no  tomorrow on summer festivals. Fantastic tribal drums, pumping agressive in your face basslines that will excite your ears straight away and positive melodies along with cool vocals to sing a long. It's the type of track that whenever you hear it on radio, club or an advert on TV about  football matches makes you wanna rush on the dancefloor and shake your body. It contains the live crowd signing and clapping that always works and take your imagination away to Brazil of course. Simple idea executed in the most successful way with devastating results instantly! Love iT

Dimitri Kechagias review: The stunning new single of Zedd is called Find You and includes two magnificent singers on vocals that are very hot in the EDM scene right now. Matthew Koma & Miriam Bryant performing the optimistic feel good vocals on the best possible fashion and upon the clever Zedd production that oozes quality. Electro prog house beats at its very best supported by an excellent remix package not to be missed. First of all is the superstar Dash Berlin from the Netherlands. His remix showcases his more big room house meets big room trance sound that is played in house and trance sets as well. Solid composition with the pounding drums, the heavy in your face basslines and the excellent application of the original melodic themes along with new ones. The vocals are included too and shine perfectly as Dash Berlin allows them space to breathe and elevate the listeners to the next level. Tritonal from Texas are fantastic and they know how to turn anything into their own sound as this was illustrated on Metamorpic EP's on Enhanced. Their remix is packed with fresh clever twisted and turns, dubstep infusions, pulsating drums,energetic basslines, emotional sensitive blissful melodies and euphoric synths that will keep you dancing and clapping for hours! Its one of the big tunes that will be played a lot at the open air summer festivals. Froxic remix is an exceptional nearly 9 minutes long version with chunky techy beats, crunchy deep basslines and and summery relaxing atmosphere. Syn Cole remix finally is absolutely earthshaking and will cause big damage on any floor with funtastic bouncy beats, pumping in you face basslines and clever electro twist in the original melody. It contains distortions and excellent structure that will keep the dancefloors busy without any sign of boredom. It will energise you instantly and is perfect for USA dancefloors! #PureGold Love iT
