Coldbeat gets Featured on Beatport Stems

-
So, recently Coldbeat released his new brand Electro House/ Complextro tune. Catalogue release number 84, by Ehtraxx, 'Rare Candy' was released to Beatport on July 22, 2016, and 2 weeks later (August 5) everywhere else.

What's so special about the track itself? The entry from the release BIO says:
"...The Label head, DJ and Producer Coldbeat is back with his brand new single! "Rare Candy" has on its composition a  heavy combination of driving/ dirty basslines with Complextro slices, a groovy rhythm and a trancy break with melodic and harmonic leads, synths and pads. This rhythmic Complextro track is the perfect edge between Techy House/ Electro tunes with Big Room tracks. This "Rare Candy" was handcrafted by Coldbeat to level up playlists and DJ sets with the best that only the Electro House/ Complextro energy can offer. Use it with caution and watch while your audience learns a few new good moves. Hot new release by Ehtraxx and Coldbeat, not to be missed!..."

Fact is that Coldbeat still is one of a few producers that keeps doing Electro House/ Complextro tracks, the old fashion way, with lots of powerful bass tones and a quite dark overall tone compared to other tracks from similar genres and artists.

When asked, Coldbeat said that the track's name and the final section of the BIO were inspired by one of his favorite games of all time, Pokémon (not Go, the ones from the GBA and NDS consoles). If you're following his work and checking some of his Original Mixes you'll see that most tracks' names were inspired by something he likes, we have 'Pyrate' (mixture of 'Pirates of the Caribbean' and 'Pyro' from the X-Men movie), 'Cybertron' and 'Shockwave' (Transformers)...

Coldbeat is also known as one of the first artists of Ehtraxx and Coldwave Records releasing STEMS, the brand new music file format by Native Instruments. And that's exactly how he got featured on Beatport (STEMS section) on August 26.

Most DJs out there would agree with that feature:
dj shaun m - "liking this alott great beats" 5/5
dj smex - "nice old school club anthum synth sound mixed with mega saw modern sounds" 3/5
DJ HMC - "Should fit into my DJ sets will be playing" 3/5
I.A.Rufferson - "It's a cool Electro-House-Hymn! Perfect for the DJ-Charts!" 4/5
and the list goes on...

Better than talking, you can hear for yourself. Coldbeat's 'Rare Candy' is available in all major stores and streaming services, like Beatport, TrackItDown, DJTunes, iTunes, Amazon and JunoDownload, as example. And the STEMS are available on JunoDownload and Beatport.

5 Reasons You Should Never Buy SoundCloud Plays, Likes And Followers

Post originally from Omari MC . Buying SoundCloud plays has become a popular thing to do with aspiring artists, DJ's, and producers on the site. Everyone is in a mad dash to be heard, and sometimes they may even sink to the level of going unheard in order to make it look like they were heard. With this I mean that most of the services that offer SoundCloud plays use bots or fake plays in order to fulfill the requirements they tell artists they can give. Here's 5 reasons why it's a bad idea to buy off these services, and also what to do instead when you're trying to get more listeners. 1. HOW TO TELL WHEN THE PLAYS ARE FAKE There's a few ways to spot a fake service out. If they give a hard number of plays instead of a range (Fake) If they talk about them being 'safe' plays (Fake) If they guarantee likes, comments, and re-posts (Fake) Why are these fake indicators? Real promotion services usually give a range of plays that will be delivere

Most informations were originally from a Symphonic Dist .'s e-mail and from the SymBlog . First, a personal note from me, Coldbeat. Coldbeat: "-I've recently been talking with a few artists about this subject, but it seems that most people don't have a full understanding on how STEMS work, and what are this new format of music file, hell.. I'm still not fully aware. But let's see what we know and what information we have so far. Most people will associate the word "STEMS" to remixes, right? Because those pieces you get from the Original Mixes, in order to reorganize them and make your own version of the song, those files are usually referred as STEMS. You're not wrong, those are the STEMS. But this new music format created by Native Instruments (I'm assuming) is quite different from those STEMS you're used to know from the remix packs and remix competitions. So, let's see what we know so far." About STEMS. Native Ins
