Monday Choon: John Grand - Speedrunner

 

LA based Progressive and Trance producer John Grand is known for his high-octane music that sends one into euphoria from start end. He unveils a new two-tracker. 'Nightfire' is a collaboration with Dave Raval and the duo lock in, with slinky leads and bouncy pianos merging over rollicking bass and is certainly worth a listen too as well but for me, the second track, 'Speedrunner' is a glorious follow up, with its funk-influenced bass, chopped up vocals and upbeat energy sure to find the ears of fans the world over. It's a fast paced track that gets you hooked from the onset, with a speedy backtrack and catchy bassline, the addition of vocals towards the end is a masterstroke and adds that missing element the track needed. 

Monday Choon: David Broaders - Lore

 

Irish music producer David Broaders who hails from the town of Kilkenny, I'm guessing that is where that delicious creamy ale is produced, has been making electronic music for some time now and over the years seen him supported by the likes of Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren to name a few. He's been known to make uplifting sonics which are front-and-centre in today's featured track 'Lore' and is another essential trance banger for your listening pleasure. Building on the pristine production of his last single, 'Arka', released earlier this year on Enhanced Progressive, 'Lore' sets phasers to fun with its heady synth melodies, 80s flourishes, and a syncopating, fist-pumping drive. It's a sprint finish as past, present and future converge in a legendary finale of transcendent vocals and symphonic instrumentation

Monday Choon: Farius - Miami Love

 

Following up on previous single 'Be Somebody' which saw support on ABGT, a stellar remix of Dezza's 'Cold Outside' and an outstanding performance at United In Prog at ADE 2019, Farius maintains strong momentum in 2019 with new single 'Miami Love'. Hard-hitting and immaculately produced, 'Miami Love' sees the British producer further hone his sound, using vocal snippets and an upbeat chord progression to create a hands-in-the-air banger. 

Monday Choon: Kudus & Farius - Select Player Mode

 

Nothing beats a good collaboration, especially when its with two DJ's that have such unique sounds and talents, this week see's Dutch based DJ Kudus partner with British DJ Farius for their recently released track "Select Player Mode". The track is a great feeling good one which nostalgic heavy synths, spacey drums and pulsating bass that together just sounds so euphoric and almost reminiscent to something you would hear in an 80's video game but with obviously a bit more vibe. The track has been received well in the last few week, its a track that I've enjoyed quite a bit myself, hence its making a feature today. 

Monday Choon: Nikhil Prakash & Tomac - Horsepower

 Los Angeles based Progressive Trance producer Nikhil Prakash is no stranger to our blog with us featuring his track "Are You" previously. This time round he's back with another banger, under the Enhanced Records label, titled "Horse Power". It's a brilliant progressive track with a bit of hard style slipped in the middle. It's been getting decent airplay on the podcasts since its release three weeks ago, especially from Andrew Rayel and the likes. It's another great track from Nikhil and one that really gets the blood flow going, which lives up to its title Horsepower, turn up and get the week going.
