Monday Choon: deadmau5 & Lights - When The Summer Dies

Deadmuat5 is back on the blog today with his latest offering featuring Lights in the track titled "When the Summer Dies". The track brings back the iconic Deadmau5 sounds with the deep hard bassline backtrack with high synth overlays, which are pretty catchy and get your head bobbing as soon as it hits. Joel last teamed up with Lights back in 2018 to release the midtempo track "Drama Free", while it wasn't one of the popular tracks in his library the colab proved to be a perfect fit as their skills just syncs well. This single showcases the pop-punk sensibilities, infused with a playful production from Joel. It's a great track, and should prove to be another deadmau5 banger, and thats why it makes our featured track of the week. 

Monday Choon: Alyx Ander & Redondo - Casually (feat. Maria Z)

Not sure why, maybe its the old in me coming out but I'm seriously enjoying these new dance tracks which have old school nostalgia tempo and beats to them. Take for example today's featured track by Alyx Ander and Redondo, the beat could easily be mistaken for an 80/90's R&B track with Mariah Carey on the lyrics but its not, it's actually a brand new release and features the vocals of the oh so fine, Maria Z. This just goes to show the variants in the EDM world, with fusion of other genre's in there that can transform music from one spectrum to a complete other. While I am a fan of electronic and trance, I don't mind these sort of tracks every now and then. The music video is pretty cool as well, take a look and listen.
