Wolfgang Gartner – Redline (Original Mix)
May 17, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Wolfgang Gartner recently collaborated with Tiesto on “We Own The Night” for his Club Life Miami compilation, and now he is back with a new track all his own. It looks like some of Tiesto’s influence may have rubbed off on Wolfgang, whose new track “Redline” is a departure from past productions. The new offering is uncharacteristically melodic for a Gartner track, with substantial synth sounds and relatively mellow electro elements. We like the melody and the build a lot, and it shows Wolfgang’s ability to experiment with different types of sounds. It feels like the kind of track that would benefit from an acapella immensely, so we’re excited to see what sorts of combinations DJs can come up with. It’s available now on Ultra Records.

As a follow-up to recent successful productions including “A Heavy Abacus” and “Troll,” Qulinez’s latest remix continues in the vein of their signature electro style. While maintaining the chord progression and wobbly undertones of Don Diablo’s original, Qulinez adds a building, whiny synth coupled with a heavy electro kickdrum.

They’ve become known for their crunked out “dirty south electro swag,” Styles & Complete is taking a bit of a different turn with their new original track, Hold On Little Girl. The track uses a brooding, yet soulful sample that belies the heavy drop. The track was produced with carefully arranged drums, crushing synths, and well-crafted melodies, making this quite the tune. The Carolina boys are currently on tour throughout the South, and you should definitely try and find a show near you!

With all the big releases this week, Tocadisco may have stolen the show for electro lovers.
The lovely ‘Put your hands together’ sample makes the song. Hand down. Tocadisco’s electro arrangement around it is makes the remix (hands down.)
An electro track like the one’s your father used to like (father meaning you two years ago before dub step became truly relevant.)
