Touching moloko in style this dreamy song originated from Ireland, was signed in Canada, remixed in the US and now release in the UK. Dennis Ferrer is no producer to deliver half cut offerings, but what we hear here is ridiculous. The bass line just swollows you up and forms the main hook of this record.
Massive tune on the pirate radio scene and favorite with everyone from Tenaglia to Vega. Balearic Soul inject exactly that unleashing a killer electric guitar line that transports this. Charles webster gets deep and minimal. In what ever form this is a remarkable and essential offering.

Those Guys - I Walk Alone
It's been a while since Those Guys (aka Baltimore's Basement Boys) last release. Remember the anthemic "Tonite" in the early 90s? Well they're back with this! Initially championed by Pete Tong (as an Essential New Tune), Martin Solveig and Dimitri from Paris at last years' WMC, it's taken a fair while to resolve the sample issue of Chille's disco classic "For Your Love!"
Now, with a big green light, the track is given a new lease of life by Haji & Emanuel who go for an electro-charged main room epic, Steve Mac turns out a fantastic hi-nrg/acid tinged remix while the Basement Boys offer some more soulful versions and Dimitri from Paris proves his disco prowess on his seriously cut re-edit.
It's time to show Big Love for the boys from Baltimore!

Andrea Love - Faithful
Andrea Love is back with a new hot release on Purple Music, "Faithful" is a beautiful and intense house track with a great piano line, solid beats and that awesome vocal performance provided by Andrea Love, as well as the classic trademark musical touch of Jamie Lewis. The "Bar mix" is a brilliant piece of classic vocal house, while the "Bar dub" is a mostly instrumental version with extra percussions and synths.

Claude Monnet presents Torre - Panache
Claude Monnet debuts on Purple Music with an awesome release, "Panache" by Torre is a beautiful piece of quality house music with a funky vibe and an inspired 70's style synth melody. The "Main mix" has all these elements, as well as solid beats, infectious basslne and an inimitable 70's film soundtrack mood. The "Dub mix" goes a bit more electronic but keeps the 70's magic vibe, thanks to an infectious synth in a perfect Moroder style.

Ame - Rej
"Rej" is one of the electronic - minimal anthems of the year. Alredy released on Sonar Kollectiv and Defected, now is available on d.vision too that released it on two separate 12" . The first record includes the infamous "Original mix" as well as the hot and infectious A Hundred Birds remixes. The second vinyl presents the powerful remixes provided by Pastaboys, that pumped up the track to an irresistible and massive driven remix.

Michael Gray - Somewhere Beyond
Having had success as part of Full Intention as well as with the tracks The Weekend and Borderline, Gray follows up with a gorgeous synth led track. Building slowly before the bassline drops, Somewhere is a simple track featuring a melancholic breakdown, suiting the earlier sets.

Axwell - I Found You
This huge string led track would have been more in tune with Axwell’s Mambana alias a few years back. Featuring a simple yet great vocal, Axwell’s latest offering is a huge change from his other tracks being produced of late, for instance his remix of Jump by Madonna. Slightly repetitive but nonetheless catchy, I Found You will no doubt bring more attention to this amazing producer.

Rachael Starr - Crash (Massimo Santucci Rmx)
Responsible for the huge “Till There Was U”, Starr’s latest release gets the mainroom treatment from Santucci. With parallels to Trentemoeller’s take on “What Else is There?” Crash delivers with strong beats and alluring vocals. Sure to find resonance with both electro-house and big room NYC fans, with timely breakdowns and build-ups and great arrangement.

Jerry Ropero & Michael Simon ft Kathy Brown - Ocean Drums
Featuring tough tribal beats complemented by the wailing vocals of Kathy Brown, Ocean Drums is quite simply an amazing big room track. With a number of short breakdowns throughout the track and some elevating effects, Ocean Drums is a strong yet soulful mainroom monster. Cue the main breakdown to end all breakdowns: within this monster lies a gorgeous heart.
