EDMCHARTS_VOL105

Festival season kicks it off big this weekend with EDC NYC! Dirty South showcases some “heart” with the next big thing. Bloc Party is brilliantly remixed by Digitalism for the “Truth”. Cirez D stays on the charts with some big “drums”.

1. DIRTY SOUTH, JOE GIL “YOUR HEART” [MICHAEL BRUN REMIX] (PHAZING) Release Date: 2013-5-13edmcharts_dirtysouth

Rating: ★★★★

Genre: PROGRESSIVE HOUSE

Origin: AUSTRALIA

Description: One of the biggest DJs to come from the land down under takes over the #1 spot on this week’s chart with the Michael Brun Remix of “Your Heart”. This progressive house hit features unbelievable builds and amazing vocals thanks to Joe Gil, who has really made a splash on this song. The song is truly uplifting and the track itself has harmonic bass and synths. This is well deserving of the top spot.

Rating: ★★★★★

Genre: TECHNO

Origin: SWEDEN

Description: Cirez D AKA Eric Prydz has been the man of 2013 thus far bringing the real, deep and less commercialized sound of techno back to prevalence. “Thunderstruck” is part of a new EP release, that has a solid warehouse feel to it. It features quick snares, some vocal chopping and of course the bass. This is just another element to be added to a brilliant portfolio of 2013 hits for Prydz.

VOL103_DAFT

Summer is almost here as we hit May running! Daft Punk have nostalgically looped fans together once again. Mark Knight shows some “love” to house fans with another massive release. Above & Beyond introduce us to their new friend “Walter White”.

1. DAFT PUNK “GET LUCKY” [RADIO EDIT] (COLUMBIA) Release Date: 2013-4-19edmcharts_daftpunk

Rating: ★★★★★

Genre: POP

Origin: FRANCE

Description: With the most massive release of the year, maybe regardless of genre, the long awaited new single of Daft Punk’s new album “Random Access Memories” is debuted. With production assistance provided by legendary producer Niles Rodgers and vocal assistance from crooner Pharrell Williams, the track is neo-synth to its finest. Daft Punk are legends because they are the best producers the genre has ever seen. Even though their tracks slide a bit more to the pop side, you cannot deny their acute attention to detail and keen sense of selecting assistance on their album productions.

edmcharts_au5_GUESTMIX

What a packed month of April for great music! Alesso and OneRepublic ”lose” themselves in the music. Jungle Jim makes a great “animalistic” debut. Static Revenger lays down some solid house with “Bullet Train”.

1. ONEREPUBLIC, ALESSO “IF I LOSE MYSELF” [ALESSO VS ONEREPUBLIC EXTENDED MIX] (MOSLEY MUSIC/INTERSCOPE RECORDS) Release Date: 2013-4-2edmcharts_alesso

Rating: ★★★★

Genre: PROGRESSIVE HOUSE

Origin: SWEDISH/USA

Description: Alesso has been one of the hottest names in EDM over the past 12 months. This remix of OneRepublic’s huge hit “If I Lose Myself” is a great emotional interpretation. It has a real big room sound, yet at the same time it rings deep thanks to some phenomenal vocals. Alesso is selling out everywhere he tours, so we don’t doubt that this will be another huge year.

_pryda-99

What a week as EDM Charts approaches a huge milestone in volume 100! Pryda flexes some “power” with his latest Black Dice styled hit. Cramp brings fans forward to the future with “A.d. 2030″. Max Graham hits the charts with some great vocal trance.

1. PRYDA “POWER DRIVE” [ORIGINAL MIX] (PRYDA RECORDS) Release Date: 2013-4-1edmcharts_pryda

Rating: ★★★★★

Genre: PROGRESSIVE HOUSE

Origin: SWEDEN

Description: In celebration of Pryda’s newest residency at Surrender Night Club in Las Vegas, this anthem showcases the darker side of Progressive House. This track is almost more techno per se than Progressive. It contains elements of symphonic instruments for a more dramatic aura, a pounding beat and plenty of electro synths. This is easily one of the top 5 overall tracks of 2013 and was a smash hit at Ultra Music Festival 2013.

1. NICKY ROMERO “SYMPHONRICA” [ORIGINAL MIX] (PROTOCOL RECORDINGS) Release Date: 2013-3-25edmcharts_romero

Rating: ★★★★★

Genre: PROGRESSIVE HOUSE

Origin: HOLLAND

Description: Debuted at Ultra Music Festival Miami 2013, Romero comes out with a sophisticated progressive pounder. Led in with a symphonic opening (true to the title) to make any classical music fan proud, it slowly yet suddenly transitions over to some hard electronic synths. Romero is showing no signs of slowing down. His live sets are always some of the best and his productions demand attention.
