MORTEN Links Up With TWOLOUD On House Collaboration “Certified”

Danish dynamo MORTEN links up with TWOLOUD for the 128BPM house thumper “Certified.” Brilliantly interweaving exotic synth patches with grimy wubs, the track is a perfect marriage of both electro and bass house.
 
Fresh off his collaboration with dancehall legend Mr. Vegas, MORTEN’s catalogue gets stronger and stronger with each track he releases. He kicked off the summer by unleashing the bass house smash “FIYAA,” which ThisSongSlaps called out as a “summertime sizzler.” This was followed by his official remix of Garmiani’s festival anthem “Bomb A Drop,” garnering widespread support including Jauz live at Ultra Music Festival Europe. MORTEN kept the momentum alive by releasing two massive singles: his collaboration with Steve Aoki “Kids” and his electro / dancehall hybrid “Love (feat. Mr. Vegas).” Since its 9/16 release, “Love” has gained mixshow support from heavy-hitters David Guetta, Deniz Koyu, and Morgan Page, among others.
 
Through high-profile collaborations with Tiesto, Showtek, Qulinez, and more, masked duo TWOLOUD are behind many of today’s most-played festival tracks. This summer the mysterious pair was commissioned by UNTOLD(Romania’s largest annual electronic music festival) to produce their official anthem “My Remedy.” Most recently, their collaboration with Konih “Gimme Some More” received support from heavy hitters such as Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Hardwell, Martin Garrix, and Avicii. Additionally, TWOLOUD has released official remixes of Tiesto’s “Red Lights,” Steve Aoki & Linkin Park’s“A Light That Never Comes,” and Calvin Harris’ Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs #1 track “Summer.” Epitomizing the phrase “jack of all trades,” TWOLOUD also runs their own electronic imprint Playbox Music. Together with MORTEN, they unveil the trailblazing house track “Certified.”

Max Styler and Felmax Team Up for “Skyline”

Over Independence Day Weekend, Max Styler and Felmax ignited the fireworks with the sizzling trap number “Skyline.” The two budding producers strike a balance between gritty and sweet, chopping up dubstep breakdowns and ethereal flutters for a satiating bass-fueled banger.LA Weekly premiered “Skyline” and highlighted how the single finds Styler and Felmax, “Pushing a trap/electro hybrid sound in some insane new directions.” 
 
“Skyline” represents Styler’s recent exploration into resonant low-end sounds. Fusing trap, dubstep, hip hop, and future bass genres, he continues to leave his signature imprint with each impressive track, including recent Dim Mak titles “Show U How (Feat KARRA),” “Without U (feat Gabriela Geneva),” and his graves collaboration “Fly,” which soared to #6 on Beatport’s Hip-Hop charts. His remix game has flourished as well, evidenced by his bootlegs of Kendrick Lamar’s “Levitate,” Baauer’s “Kung Fu (Feat. Pusha T & Future),” and an official remix of Rain Man’s “Bring Back The Summer.”
 
The hybrid trap heater is the second collaboration between Styler and Miami’s Felmax after their aptly titled bass monster “The First.” Felmax has compiled a remarkable catalog of trap music that has solidified him as one to watch in 2016. After releasing his standout collaboration with graves “Zebras In America,” which has been streamed 364K+ times on Soundcloud and YouTube combined, he unleashed a massive tune called “THE CLVB” with I.Y.F.F.E., who recently released a powerful remix of Rain Man’s “Bring Back The Summer.”

Robbie Rivera To Release New Artist Album This Is My Sound on Juicy Music

After a storied career of releasing house and electro hits, acclaimed beatmaker Robbie Rivera is back with his latest album This Is My Sound.

Rivera’s first album since 2012 compiles his far-flung influences into a eighteen-track collection that plays like an oral history of his career. Drawing together classic house grooves and progressive electro builds underscored by his Puerto Rican hallmark Latin flair, This is My Sound demonstrates Rivera in his finest hour as he broadcasts his inner sonic passions.

“After the worldwide explosion of electronic music and having played all over the world every weekend for over ten years, I needed to take some time off to go back to my house music roots and produce an album that would represent what I love,” Rivera explains. “For this project I focused on delivering grooves and beats dedicated to all true music lovers whose lives are exalted by house music,” Robbie says.

Teaming up with Spanish star David Tort for “In My House,” Rivera layers chopped vocals atop an old-school four-to-the-floor tribal house beat with his classic one note hypnotic synth melody. “Can You Feel Me Now” transports listeners straight to a sunrise set in a sweaty warehouse with its magnetic piano lead, pulsating drum kicks and pitched down vocal samples. Rivera continues his acute use of vocal work with “The Game,” anchoring the synthetic, percussion-driven tune with a futuristic monologue about his boredom with today’s monotonous music and determination to shake up the status quo. Hot off his smash Axtone collaboration with Shawnee Taylor, “Falling Deeper,” this dream team returns for round two with “Follow Me.” Closing things out, Robbie includes “Sume Sigh Sey,” his collaboration with the legend Todd Terry – a brilliant slice of house music.    

Thus far, This Is My Sound album tracks have received support from a wide range of top DJs including Pete Tong, NERVO, Axwell, Kryder, Bob Sinclar, Richie Hawtin, Marco Carola, Amine Edge, Joseph Capriati, Paco Osuna, Coyu, Shiba San, Claude Von Stroke, Erick Morillo, Anna Lunoe, Marcus Schossow, Quintino, Sick Individuals, Sister Bliss, Tocadisco and many more.

The Miami-based producer first emerged on the scene in the late 90’s, bringing Latin influences into a genre previously governed by Chicago and European sounds. In 1998 Rivera launched his own Juicy Music record label, and has since collaborated with the likes of Madonna, Santana, Pink, Kylie Minogue and David Guetta, among others.
