LP Giobbi, Bruno Be & Carola feat. Clover County - Do For Love
Read more . . . →If you’ve caught LP Giobbi live, you know she plays actual piano over house music like her life depends on it, and that keyboard-forward energy is all over “Do For Love.” Team her with Bruno Be and Carola and you get a warm, four-to-the-floor house record built around a big, hands-in-the-air piano riff and a vocal hook that wants to be sung back at it. This is feel-good house with real chops under the hood; LP Giobbi comes from a jazz-piano background and it shows in the little runs she can’t help sneaking into the breakdown. The groove is sturdy...

DANIQ x DRIXS - IDK
Read more . . . →Who are DANIQ and DRIXS and why is their Spinnin’ debut this assured? “IDK” is slick, radio-shaped dance-pop with a drop that snaps clean, and it does not sound like a first outing. The vocal hook is chopped into that stuttered, half-sung “I-I-IDK” pattern producers reach for when they want a topline that doubles as a lead, and here it actually earns the trick instead of just riding it. It’s built for daytime radio and summer car speakers, polished within an inch of its life, and I don’t hold that against it for a second. The bass has a little...

DJ PUMA - REWIND
DJ PUMA's REWIND opens on a vocal chop that stutters like a scratched CD and spends four minutes earning that glitch. Built to travel, and it does.Read more . . . →Get the tee →Support the blogMade for people who left the room during Yellow. -

Chase Maverix - Bette Davis Eyes
Read more . . . →Flipping “Bette Davis Eyes” into a big-room dance track is a gamble, and I’m still not sure it pays off. Chase Maverix takes the Kim Carnes classic — one of the most distinctive vocal hooks of the early ’80s — and wraps it in exactly the kind of festival-ready production Spinnin’ ships by the pallet. The good news: that hook is bulletproof, and hearing it over a modern kick does land a cheap little jolt of recognition. The bad news: the drop underneath it is generic to the point of anonymity, a supersaw stab you’ve heard on fifty other tracks...

Last Call
Read more . . . →The lights haven’t come on yet but the DJ is checking the time. Three house records for the part of the night where nobody’s taking photos anymore and the music is the only thing keeping the room standing. 1. Sonny Fodera & Chrystal - My Loving Chrystal’s vocal is the kind that makes you angry nobody told you about her sooner. Fodera put this out in February and it’s been slow-burning through every set since — a house groove with a proper vocal performance, not a topline stitched on by a writing camp. The breakdown strips everything to her voice...

mOat & ALAY - What U Waitin 4
Read more . . . →Somewhere in a festival crowd right now, someone is losing their entire mind to a track exactly like this and having the best night of their year. “What U Waitin 4” is unashamed main-stage trance, the sort Armada exports by the shipping container, and I mean that with more affection than the description probably carries. mOat & ALAY build it around a vocal hook chopped into an urgent little question, then hang the whole thing off a rolling bassline that never once lets your pulse drop below jogging speed. The breakdown is pure setup, a soft-focus melodic pad and a...

Castor & Pollux, Alan Krevo - Rush
Read more . . . →Who decided the twins from Greek mythology should name-check themselves on a Dim Mak release, and why does the track earn it? “Rush” is high-octane, festival-facing electronic built for the exact peak-time slot the title promises — Castor & Pollux and Alan Krevo pile a driving bassline, a chopped vocal and a lead that keeps climbing into a drop engineered to make a crowd lose the plot. The build does the classic main-stage thing: snare rolls stacking up, filter creeping open, the whole track holding its breath so you can see the payoff coming from a mile off. Here the...

Summer Died at a Good Time
Read more . . . →August 31st. The calendar doesn’t care about your playlist. Four records that made summer 2026 worth the sunburn and the regret, and none of them are by Coldplay. 1. Disclosure - The Sun Comes Up Tremendous Howard Lawrence singing lead on a Disclosure track for the first time, and it turns out the voice they’ve been hiring session vocalists to replace has been sitting in the other half of the studio. Cinematic pads and a bass drop that takes its time arriving. The mountainside video looks nothing like any Disclosure visual they’ve released before. The title is doing exactly the...
