Monday Choon: EBENEZER - Arena

 

Estiva teams up with Ruben De Ronde to form EBENEZER, whom have been bringing out some unique trace sounds of recent. Their latest release caught my ears as it's a style you don't hear that often of recent, the big arena tracks with deep notes, fast synths and that echoing ship horn that just instantly takes you to those massive warehouse type raves with lazers, glow sticks and raving. 

Monday Choon: Ferry Corsten - Yes Man

"Here comes the big man with the new sound", that's the one part of the lyrics I caught in this new track from Dutch producer and DJ Ferry Corsten. Coming from him it is a new type of sound, with higher energy and bassline from what we're used to from Ferry. Leaning on more the house music side of things, "Yes man" features a provoking Reggae vocal sample, which makes me think the song should have been "yeah mon" but due to the European nature of his music, he probably had to adapt to suit. The song serves as the official rave anthem of Dreamfields Mexico 2023 and it is quite the track with dreamy pads and soaring leads that is the perfect combination to be a festival banger. 

Monday Choon: Axwell /\ Ingrosso - Dancing Alone ft. RØMANS

While everyone waits with bated breath for Swedish House Mafia to release some new music, it seems we have to wait a little while long but that won't be such a bad thing if the duo Axwell /\ Ingrosso release fire tracks like this! Dropped just last week is their latest single featuring Romans, titled "Dancing Alone", the cover art alone will leaving you wondering, with a picture of a young Paris Hilton posing for the pic, all dressed up in her rave gear, doubt she danced alone that night though! The track harks onto their original work with many of the electronic synths and beats in the opening a clear reminder of their music back then, the vocals come in and brings in the modern aspect of the track and just carries itself well throughout. It's a steady progression to a fuse with old and new, it's extremely catchy and one that you're going to be hearing a lot. 

Monday Choon: Wolfpack & Warp Brothers - Phatt Bass 2016

Many will remember this familiar sound from the Blade series of movies which was first released in 1998! Damn I feel old now, but in anycase, back then the original song was done by New Order and titled "Confusion" with the Pump Panel Remix being the main song for the movie. It was a favourite at many raves back in the day and now Wolfpack and Warp Brothers have brought it back and succeeded in making it even darker and as the title suggests, added more bass to it. The official music video also follows the lines of the movie with more blood sucking creatures of the night, at least they're driving a nice car. The song is a great rework and many lost their shit to it when Dash Berlin dropped it at Ultra as his opening track.
