(3 votes, average: 4.67 out of 5)

 Loading ...

The Angry Kids are a band of superheroes. ry2K recruited, and subsequently took the rag-tag team and trained them. He taught them to use the superhuman gifts given to them by God. He taught them to believe in themselves. He taught them to believe in one another, and he taught them to believe in the power of music. Since then, The Angry Kids have begun to change the world…and we don’t think Bob Marley really needs an introduction!

One of this years hottest records, running riot poolside in Miami earlier this year, with its fully cleared & original studio recorded Bob Marley vocals and this killer mix package, Mr. Brown looks set to continue on to rock Ibiza this summer, and this record has summer written all over it! With its pumping sun-drenched vibes it’s perfect everywhere from bars to clubs, sunsets to sunrise, after parties and villa parties.

Having risen to the #2 spot on the Club Chart in their homeland of Canada, one of the top 5 spun records at Dance Radio in Canada, featured on the single CD album Now 13, in Canada and freshly signed to Big In Ibiza for it’s UK release, The Angry Kids have caught the attention of many. Including that of BBC’s Radio 1 & 1Xtra, featuring in a broadcast of the ever-popular In New DJ’s We Trust, and receiving initial support from the likes of Annie Nightingale (Radio 1), Ras Kwarme (Radio 1/1Xtra), DJ Q (1Xtra), Kutsi (Radio 1) and DJ EZ (Kiss 100) to name a few.

So, with the summer now firmly upon us and the sun shining bright (every now and again!), The Angry Kids unleash this summer sizzler which, if going on what previous successes forecast, is the beginning of big things for this record and for these kids.

Mark Sherry “This’ll be a summer anthem!”

Pierre Pienaar – ‘Ibiza Sunset’

(2 votes, average: 4 out of 5)

 Loading ...

Nukleuz favourite and head of Nukleuz Green, Pierre Pienaar (aka P.H.A.T.T. / Melodia) presents ‘Ibiza Sunset’. A beautiful bit of Trance that epitomises the sound of Ibiza’s sunset strip. It’s always been Pierre’s ability to create some of the most beautiful, heart strung Trance that’s made him the hugely popular producer he is.

Having gained support from the likes of Paul Van Dyk & Dave Pearce to name two out of a hundred others, Pierre’s latest track is a divine piece of music, filled to the brim with emotion that will most definitely add to the atmosphere of the sunset seen night after night all along the bars that perch over the rocks of San Antonio, facing out to that legendary sunset that is the ‘Ibiza Sunset’.

The original mix from Pierre is a pumping Trance track with a usually big, drawn out Trance build up that brings in the classic long string synths and stabs that gradually develop into this powerful, pounding Trance beat that would suit clubs not only on the White Isle but all the way round the world and back again.

Next up in the package are Steve Allen and Ben Alonzi with their remix Dub. Still built up around the classic Trance structure, Allen and Alonzi stick to the beautiful string synths that slowly build up to drop into another beautifully crafted Trance anthem.

The final remix comes courtesy of Derek The Bandit Vs James Nelson with their Progressive Dub, which slows the whole track down and turns it into a stunning, chilled track, that really would be perfect for a Mambo/Café Del Mar sunset.

Trance Sessions Vol .4

(3 votes, average: 3.33 out of 5)

 Loading ...

Nukleuz has always had huge success with it’s Trance Sessions series, simply because of the consistent quality of each release. Trance Sessions Vol. 4 is no different.

Mixed in the same Nukleuz studios that have lead the label to on be a leading purveyor of trance, hard trance, tech trance and general euphoric tuneage over the years, this mix presents ten tracks of upfront, uplifting and pumping Trance as it should be.

Featuring tracks from the likes of Nukleuz front man Pierre Pienaar and other Dance music leaders in the form of Melodia and Fonzerelli is an unending rampage of Trance bangers.

First up is Melodia’s mix of Zentribe and Linda Newman, ‘Let The Music Flow’, a building, flowing, chilled out warm up to the ever developing mix. Following that is Melodia back on the buttons, this time for a solo effort with, ‘Motion Theory’ - an emotive track full of the fundamental, key Trance elements that have made the genre such a success over the years.

Next, Pierre Pienaar is in the mix for Ibiza Knights, ‘Feels so Good (To Be Alive) giving the beautiful vocals the beautiful trance backing they always deserved. TFT then steps up with his track, ‘Into The lights’ with the sort of track that has become synonymous with the Trance sound and is sure to make every clubber do just what the title says, put their hands up and look up into the lights.

The huge Pierre Pienaar remix of Fonzerelli’s ‘Spirit (Wanna Stay Here Forever)’ also features on the compilation, as does the Melodia Mix of one of this summers set to be club anthems, Connected Ft. Max’C ‘A Feeling’ with it’s gorgeous, catchy vocals that sit perfectly over Melodias pumping Trance beat.

CONNECTED FT MAX’C - “A FEELING”

(3 votes, average: 4.67 out of 5)

 Loading ...

Big In Ibiza the new label from the people behind the resurgent UMM UK drop their biggest tune of the year Connected ft Max’C ‘A Feeling’. This song has had a long development from underground club anthem to worldwide club smash.

After more revocals than a classic Mowtown hit eventually the perfect performance came from Max’C (of Axwell ‘I Found U’ fame) who is set to collaborate with David Guetta, Soul Avengers, Todd Terry, StoneBridge and many more top acts this summer (Max’C has also opened for P Diddy and Snoop Dogg, acted in TV mini series & films and is an accomplished dancer, moving to Finland from the US to teach Hip Hop and Break Dancing at the Helsinki Dance Academy).

We believe in the vocals, this song moves people, it’s in the melody and the words and the Fonzerelli mix brings that interesting fusion of the electronic backing track crossing with a soulful vocal, which is exactly what made the classic ‘Sweet Dreams’ work so well. “A Feeling” has in fact had many mix treatments through bootlegs and remixes over the past 3 years that has made it an anthem in many different arenas.

So now, with the perfect rendition, killer new mixes, and huge new support meaning the track has reached over 2,500,000 listeners in it’s first three weeks of radio play and who knows how many more clubbers it’s reached up and down the country, even gaining the No.1 spot in both the Music Week Club chart, and the DMC Club chart. The summer of 2008 will most definitely be all about “A Feeling”!

Connected

CONNECTED is a lose group of producers, remixers, singers, musicians songwriters who communicate create and produce via the web, with Big In Ibiza as their hub. They have never met, and may never meet but relate to each others creativity and offer in each case a part of the jigsaw that makes the whole picture.

In the case of a Feeling, the song was conceived and composed by Stu Allan (Manchester), communicating with Phil Allen (engineer, musician and singer) who was based in the record companies London studios. Their communication was email, web messenger and phone.

Fonzerelli (Northern Ireland) has supplied key remixes as have Wideboys (Portsmouth) and Melodia (Namibia) but none have ever met and received and supplied their contributions via ftp sites. After several singers were used on the track eventually Max’C (USA resident in Finland) recorded his vocals in Finland and supplied them all via the web. For some people this may seem unremarkable for more many it would be a revelation.

The role of Big In Ibiza is to help the various creative people to link and contribute and ultimately for The A&R and production staff at Big In Ibiza to finalise the song and offer, again via the web, to the DJs and fans. This would have been inconceivable 10 years ago but is now very much a natural consequence of creativity and technology.

Including Mixes from…

Fonzerelli
Wideboys
Pedro De La Fiesta
Love Assassins
Melodia
7th Heaven
Pete Pritchard
Darwin
Outsource DJs
Acapella

Aaron ‘Fonzerelli’ McClelland has established himself as the man to turn to when dancefloors need rocking and has proven his point with # 1 Download & # 1 Label of the year on DJ Download, # 1 Beatport charts and being requested personally to play alongside Tiesto in Ibiza this year!

Platinum selling producers The Wideboys add to the package dropping massive pumping house and garage mixes cementing themselves as some of the hottest producers around with their new single Snowflake getting 1xtra & Kiss FM playlisted following their chart hit Daddy O ft Shaznay Lewis.

Additional remixes courtesy of Pedro De La Fiesta who made a huge name for himself on Tito Puente Jnr’s ‘Oye Como Va’ and Love Assassins who are establishing themselves as a premier remix team following the hype on their debut ‘Teardrops’ release. New Head of Nukleuz Green Pierre Pienaar (aka P.H.A.T.T.) toughens things up under his Melodia guise and CD Pool’s very own 7th Heaven add their own unique party vibe.
