Quality Selections 4

Time for new track recommendations, if you are an eclectic person in electronic music, you will enjoy these tracks. See you later!

 

Todd Terje - Snooze 4 Love
You will really enjoy or totally hate this track, I'm the first option. I like the progression on this track, the riff is an unusual "call and response" by two weird arpegios.

 

Parker & Hanson - Arabesque
Low tempo progressive trance. The kinda "BBE - seven days and one week" riff followed by the supersaws chord stabs make it a very hypnotic and melodic track.

 

Alkatraz & Taylor Feat Jennife - Elation (Jonas Steur Remix)
Great remix by mr. Jonas, very melodic like usual, strong square lead in the break.

 

Arnaud Rebotini - Twilight Of Gods (Original Mix)
For me is old school techno with a very nice rolling bassline. Old school pads and some atmospheres.

 

Adam Beyer and Alan Fitzpatrick - Human Reason (Original mix)
Banging and punchy techno, with that progressive feel.

So guys, after a long time, I decided to bring quality selections back, I'm used to put my recommendations on twitter, but I will put them here on my site too.

 

Proff - Steps (Anjunadeep)

Its a great piece of progressive, very groovy bassline, swinged percussion, a nice arp, and a simple melody in the break, but that works very well!


 

Aly e Fila - Still (Solarstone remix) (Armada)

I dont need introduce Rich Mowatt, the man behind Solarstone, he is just a classic producer! I'm not much a vocal trance fan but this track is very uplifting and soft at same time, with some guitar notes playing like great fillers!


 

Ad brown - Motion (Original mix) (Silk Music)

Progressive again, the vocal chops in this tune makes all the difference, so gorgeous!


 

Storyteller - From sunset to sunrise (Club86 Recordings)

Quality progressive, very danceable, so atmospheric! The chord progressions are so hypnotic.


 

Markus Schulz vs Jochen Miller - Rotunda (Armada)

Techprogressive, with that typical Jochen Miller square lead and Swedish House Mafia continuous claps.


 

Sundriver - Dreamer (Enchanced Recordings)

Here we have a more melodic uplifting, the gate effect and plucks in the break get the floor working!


 

Kyota - Nemo (BVibes Remix) (Redux Recordings)

Lots of effects and an euforic breakdown, banging tech sounds after the break.


 

Thomas Kelle - Mars Needs Lovers (Daniel Rems Remix) (Alter Ego)

New talent Thomas Kelle comes back, but this time Daniel Rems make the strongest track in the release. Melodic progressive filled with dirty sounds.

 

See you next time! ;)

Danilo Ercole - Below The Equator Line (Original Mix)

Another strong release from brazilian progressive name, Danilo Ercole, hits Coldharbour Recordings, read below for a review!

Danilo Ercole - Below The Equator Line (Coldharbour Recordings)

Original mix

It starts with some filtering in the bass and in the arp, till the drop, followed with some white noise bursts. The gated melody creates expectation. The sound is filled in the background, a pad rises till the main break comes.

A metallic arpeggio with a bass pad played together, the snares comes to give more punch. The climax increases with lots of reverb, till the drop, it is followed by some chord stabs. The arpeggio comes again, followed by a long envolving pad creating a big atmosphere. You get some filtering in the end.

Basil O'Glue remix

It starts with some sidechained effects till the main drums come with the sidechained bass. The sound is filled with effects and pads. The break is coming and the pad keeps sustained till the main supersaw lead that is filtered and fully opened. So the track continues with all elements together till a short break leading to the end.

Grab them on Beatport!
