Dance Pop
A truly intoxicating modern take – a classic pop song reimaged under a euphoric synth-wave and EDM light of pulsating rhythms and softly evocative vocals. Lifelong German artist and musician Tommy Countach promises a fully immersive to uplifting and satisfying new cover, of the iconic Another Day In Paradise.
Let’s get the record straight – cmon3tta, pronounced see-moe-net-uh, is the work of creative artist Chris Simonetta – a one-man band writing, performing, recording and producing from a uniquely eclectic collection of instruments and influences.
Seamlessly uniting aspects of house, dark pop and euphoric electro funk, Ziya delivers a timeless floor-filler of an anthem, with the fluid vocal resolves and deeply atmospheric EDM production of CRASHOUT.

Electro pop and dance united by conceptual introspection that counters the digital production with a certain humanity and depth. JD Rotate’s latest album digs into the moments, experiences and relationships that shape a life and who we are, and does so by way of an eclectic and pristine stylistic approach.

On thoughts of everything getting a return, great music increasingly circles back to the building blocks of deeply evocative sub-genres – the charm and enchantment of trip hop, in example; the uplifting vibrancy of drum and bass, the creative freedom of both, and the intimate, engaging fluidity of honest voices.

Brand new music form Matthias Boretius promises an ambient and soulful, organic journey as ever – this time taking subtle influence from the likes of Underworld, only veering off creatively, with near-operatic vocals that enchant and engage the senses and thought process.
Blackout is a huge celebration of a multi-vocal chorus in the end, carefully juxtaposing the darkness of the subject matter, and is ultimately one of the most addictive songs of the summer.
