Preview: Avicii - Levels (Henrik B Remix)

Possibly the biggest tune from last year, Levels has been again transformed into an emphatic club record. The original by Avicii has got people from all over the world humming along to his emotive melody and with the sampling of the late Etta James' vocals, he made an amazing Progressive House track. However the original was not enough for Henrik B, the Spanish house maestro put his spin on this track completely, only remaning factors are the melody and sampled vocal. This edit has really changed my perspective of Henrik, I for one cannot wait until it is released, for now here he is playing it live at Globen.

Release: Sebastian Ingrosso & Alesso Feat. Ryan Tedder - Calling (Lose My Mind)

Not long ago we brought you the Progressive House anthem Calling, and it was one of their best songs from last year. Well now it's creator's Sebastian Ingrosso and Alesso have included Ryan Tedder in the act, completely re-inventing the original. Tedder, the singer in renowned band One Republic, has written and performed the lyrics to Calling (Lose My Mind) scintillatingly well. If you thought the instrumental version was good, you have got no idea how good this version is. The highly promising collaboration between mentor and apprentice Ingrosso and Alesso have another upcoming track called Eclipse, this time including Steve Angello in on the act.

"Let There Be House" - An EDM Documentary

There has been a few House Music movie's kicking about recently, there has been David Guetta's Nothing But The Beat documentary, Re:Generation and now the imminent release of CAN U FEEL IT: The UMF Experience. The once unknown genre has sprouted into popularity in recent years and more and more documentaries have emerged delving deep into the past, present and the future of EDM.

The newest film released titled, Let There Be House, follows the growth of our much beloved scene from it's origins up until present day. From the mouth of the film’s Producer/Editor, Tamara Susa, the "idea is to show the progression of house music since its beginnings in Chicago to where it is today." With many rising worldwide talents such as Avicii, Nicky Romero, Dirty South, Fedde Le Grand, AN21 and Max Vangeli getting an interview, this documentary is a must watch.

"Let There Be House" is set for release in summer 2012.

Preview: Nari & Milani - Atom

Italy is best known for it's luxury supercars and it's gorgeous food, well now it has a new icon in the form of duo Nari & Milani. The Italian producer's have been signed up to Steve Angello's, Size Records label and their forthcoming releases look to be highly promising. Supported by Swedish House Mafia - Angello is part of that amazing trio - and more global artist's their back-to-basic style of producing is very powerful. Stripping back all forms of distraction, they focus on the real Electro House, creating a clear, forceful bassline that will make your speakers work. It is due out on Size Records in March.

Preview: Nicky Romero – Toulouse (Inc. Chocolate Puma & Tommy Trash Remixes)

One of the catchiest songs created in EDM recently has undergone a major revamp by two well known producers. The track, Toulouse originally by Dutch starlet Nicky Romero has been handed to both Chocolate Puma and Tommy Trash. With huge releases behind him such as Cascade and The End, Australian-bred Tommy Trash has completely turned this track upside down, changing a Progressive House track into an unbelievable Electro House thriller. Boasting huge bottom end progression, this particular remode has done justice to the original's catchy melody. Plus the all-in-point of this track is the glitchy style we have become accustomed to from Trash. 

On the other hand, Dutch pioneer's Chocolate Puma have added an impressive deep drop at the end of some fantastic melodic build up play. DJ Zki & Dobre have excelled themselves here in superb Dutch fashion, laying the classic Dutch House sound on top of the original Progressive House anthem.

 We thought we would bring you something different, something away from our usual style of clean, melodic house music. So we brought you this Dirty House remix of Fedde Le Grand's Amplifier by Ävender. The young polish DJ/producer has not been producing very long, in fact this is his first track, it is a free download to. With an excellent glitchy big-room sound, this is a superb rework of Fedde Le Grand's original.
