[Techno] Dea Magna & Eric Sharp – Red Room

LA songstress Dea Magna has joined Eric Sharp for the alluring original “Red Room.” Released on Sirup Music, this techy treat is injects a tasteful energetic boost that engulfs the listeners with its larger than life atmosphere.

“Red Room” is one of those adventurous creations that truly builds from start to finish, taking the listener on a journey instead of the simple copy paste format of many “EDM” songs. Themes and phrases find themselves throughout, but Dea and Eric offer the listener a fun listen from beginning to end.

‘Red Room’ was inspired by dance music culture. We wanted to make a song that evokes the positive and uplifting emotions, that celebrates love and freedom from the mind. ‘Red Room’ is a place full of strobe lights and laser beams, where bass pulses through your body, and you can’t help but dance. Where the feelings that consume you are feelings of peace and happiness. It also in a way honors the return of such spaces into our lives after we lost them for a while.” – Dea Magna

[Techno/Acid] – Jimmy Pé – Tunnel Vision

Ready to get a little weird with Jimmy Pé? The Slovakian dropped his new single “Tunnel Vision” on his home country’s arm of Universal. The acid-inspired techno heater is all gas no brakes for a fun-filled anthem.

“Tunnel Vision” has that timeless rave sound, one that’s a hit whether it was released 20 years ago, 20 years in the future or now. Armed with a memorable vocal sample, gritty bass and a vibrant attitude, Jimmy’s immaculate production feels like it belongs in a movie – perfectly encapsulating the scene of an iconic underground rave. It’s a great tune that deserves some space in your party playlist!

I found the vocal sample and instantly knew what I had to do with them. The whole process of this song took only two days. I love the feeling when you know from the first moment how it’s supposed to sound. It’s just like a tunnel where you see the light and slowly approach it. That’s how I would describe the process of this song.” – Jimmy Pé

[Future Rave] Tim Clark – Dream Walk

Veteran DJ and budding producer Tim Clark has returned with his fiery festival single “Dream Walk.” With the growing popularity of future rave subgenre, Tim pulls from the sound as well as his old school style for an immaculate burst of energy that feels classic and new all at once.

“Dream Walk” makes us feel like we’re out at Tomorrowland or throwing back some cocktails at an Ibiza pool party. It’s just one of those fun songs that harkens back to the OG rave days, and while it delivers heavily on nostalgia it also doesn’t feel played out. We’re pretty particular on the more progressive side of things, but this one hits!

[EDM] Juicy M vs. Subshock & Evangelos – Psyhaus

Juicy M vs. Subshock & Evangelos
Psyhaus

Now, the term “EDM” isn’t something we like to use to describe a record as a whole, however if we wrote psytrance and bass house, you might think us crazy. You might think Juicy M and Subshock & Evangelos crazy for making a track that smashes those sounds together, but they did it anyway and it’s a heater.

Released on Spinnin Records, the aptly named “Psyhaus” is basically two tracks in one. At first I thought it was a mash-up, but turns out this original came hot out the studio as is, sewing together two genres you wouldn’t really expect to hear together in this fashion. They took a risk and it worked out because this all out barrage of energy is just the kind of weird, unexpected thing dance music needs right now.

[Music Video] SUBMERSIVE – Awaken

The trance-centric producer SUBMERSIVE came out with his single “Awaken” a couple of months ago, but now we’ve got an extension of the project thanks to a beautiful music video. If you enjoyed the song, then you’re going to be enamored by its visual partner.

“Awaken” isn’t your average trance record by any means. In choosing to do a music video for it, SUBMERSIVE really had to do something just as interesting and he nailed it with this natural wonder. Shot at Joshua Tree National Park, this video is mesmerizing for numerous reasons. Check it out now and grab the free download of the single.

Awaken is a song geared and stirring the spirit inside of you, so Joshua Tree National Park was the obvious choice of location for the music video. If you’ve ever been, I’m sure you’d agree; its a magical place. Almost like an alien world, free of nearly all traces of human society. The director, Beck Graben did a great job of capturing the essence of the song with a stunning visual accompaniment.” – SUBMERSIVE
