Coldbeat Gets a Double Feature on Beatport

Image
Blog post by Coldbeat. Ok, firstly is important (or at least relevant to me) to mention how it feels odd when I write something referring to myself in third person, not sure if I'm doing it correctly but let's keep it like that for the time being, but I promise you that I'll look into that. In any case, feel free to share your thoughts in the comment area. Well, now where were we anyway? Right... the double feature thing. You know that moment when you listen to a song and almost instantly you feel a connection with it? And you must have that song on repeat for like an hour? That's pretty much how I felt when I first heard 'Back To You', the Original Mix composed/ produced by Madistt, Germany based producer, with lyrics/ vocals by Brooke Mitchell, from USA. That song is really catchy, but you can hear for yourself clicking here . 'Back To You' is the kind of Electro House/ EDM song that I like to remix, and so I did. I was really looking forwa...

'Neon Lover (Feat. HANNIE)' TOP#3, TOP#12 and TOP#84 on Beatport

Image
Blog post by Coldbeat. In today's music industry, with so many new artists, labels and songs being released every day, this is exactly the one thing we can't ignore. With the EDM scene growing every day, it's getting harder and harder to get some exposure out there (unless you are already huge famous). This last few days we had the pleasure of sharing some great news. Firstly we got 'Neon Lover' released, exclusively on Beatport at April 28, 2017. Few days later (April 30) we had the first great news, we had just noticed that 'Neon Lover' was on TOP#44 House Releases and TOP#11 Electro House Releases, and now (May 2) we're holding the TOP#31 House and TOP#7 Electro House spots. Is so great to hear new talents such as those 2 young artists. With vocals by HANNIE, the song produced by Portamento is a masterpiece, a great addition to House/ Vocal House playlists, and I was lucky enough to deliver a decent Electro House/ Complextro Remix of this g...

Image
Hey, Coldbeat here with some BIG news. Well, first of all I want to thank you for supporting our work, our music and all the stuff we share, it really means the world to us and it makes us move forward and work even harder to bring you some quality content, that includes music, blog posts, remix contests with cool prizes, remix-release opportunities and many more. Now, let's share the news. Not long ago, to be more precisely at February 13, I've released my remix of 'Happy Moments', song originally by Edvard Hunger, a talented producer from Belarus. The original track, which you can listen  here , has some increadible and inspired melody, a feature that I always like when doing remixes, so I've decided to give it a try. I had so much fun doing the remix, and actually came up with another massive bass tone and combined it very nicely with the Complextro slices. Another feature worth mentioning of my remix are 2 elements I used in the breakdown and parts of th...

Image
Blog post by Coldbeat. This last week was a very special one for us, label and artists, because not only have we been featured in the new STEM pack section on Beatport, but it was also a double feature! Before we go any further it's important to mention that we're really greatful for the support Beatport gave us on the last STEM releases. As it seems and as we have mentioned in our previous blog posts, everyone has high expectations for the future of DJing and this new music file format, after all, it represents a whole new way of performing live, and of course, it represents a new possibility of revenue for all artists and labels. Now, let's see something about each of the 2 releases. The words below were taken direcly from the release's BIO: 'Main Event' by WallHack and WeSSeX -  WallHack & WeSSeX are back, this time with the EP called 'Main Event'. The release features a strong combination of high-pitched leads with classic Electro/ Comp...

Selectro Vol.2 And Its New 'Savage' Sound

Image
Blog post by Coldbeat Recently I had the chance to put my eyes (and ears) on a new set of Electro House tracks from some fresh new talents from different places in the globe. 'Selectro Vol.2' came out 4 years after the Vol.1 but it was totally worth the wait. With a massive support from test-makers DJs and radios all over the world, 'Selectro Vol.2' is a great step forward to the Coldwave Records team, let's see below the release description: "Coldwave Records goes full force with the massive Electro House 5-track compilation entitled 'Selectro Vol.2'. 4 years after the Vol.1 release, Coldwave strikes with a ultimate crowd-pleaser. Firstly we have 'Machine City' by Andrew Khorolsky, a track with a Techy Electro beat with groovy rhythm and deep sound effects.

Coldbeat's 'Plastic Dreams' got Featured on Beatport STEMS

Image
Blog post by Coldbeat. We did it! Once again featured on Beatport STEMS . Truth be told, the STEMS field still seems as a "green area" for many labels and artists, and thus unexplored by most, but as we've pointed before in our previous posts ' Introducing - Beatport Stems ' and ' Learn about Native Instruments exciting new music format, STEMS ', this new music file format may be the future of music distribution and DJing. In order to use the STEMS file you have to download/ purchase it, and it gives DJs a whole new perspective when live mixing. The 'Plastic Dreams' album has 12 songs, each one available also in the STEM music file format. Included at this package we have remastered versions of known Electro House/ Complextro tracks like 'Magic Portal Reboot', 'Rare Candy' and 'Call Me', alongside remastered brand new versions of 'Kryptonite' and 'Lose Control' Remixes. But the highlights of this rel...

Patos on TOP#6 [Updated] Beatport Electro House Releases

Image
Blog post by Coldbeat. Updated on October 1, 2016 Heey! What's up people? Coldbeat here again with a new 'Highlight'/ 'Artist Spotlight' this week. This one we must say, is totally insane and deserved, of course, and we kinda saw that coming. If you're going to ask me how did we "saw that coming", it's because if you haven't heard the new ' #complexure ' EP by Patos yet, right? The Poland based producer has a solid history of Electro House/ Complextro tracks, with some of the best releases Coldwave Records and Ehtraxx have shared so far. But when it comes to Patos ' musical productions and compositions it's not all about Electro House, is safe to say that whatever he does, any genre, he does it with an amazing quality and creativity. From sound design and his unique bass tones to incredible melody compositions, Patos , alongside his side project Tomorrow (PL) , goes from Electro House/ Complextro to Dubstep, Glitch Hop...

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?

Use it with caution and watch while your audience learns a few new good moves. Hot new release by Ehtraxx and Coldbeat, not ...
