If you’re beginning to feel the winter blues, Maximals have your antidote with their new ‘Reset’ EP. Featuring three brand new tracks, the veteran Italian duo brings a spectrum of Funky House grooves to the table that definitely don’t disappoint. The lead single “No More” opens the sonic venture with piano melodies coupled with reverberating synths, all complemented by soulful vocals that make for a groove-worthy track to sing along to. Afterward comes “So Good,” delivering deep instrumental basslines for a more underground sound, followed by the disco-influenced “You Got Me,” which provides an energetic and feel-good finale to the EP. ‘Reset’ marks Maximals’ 11th Protocol release, following “What Are You Waiting For” with Chad Kowal released on Protocol earlier this year, and “Back To You” on Showtek’s Skink.

Nicky Romero’s Protocol Recordings has quickly become a renowned, taste-making imprint with a diverse roster of artists who all have one thing in common – the ability to excellently produce forward-thinking electronic music. Enter Trilane and YARO, the veteran duo and talented up-and-comer who regularly combine forces with tracks that always knock it out of the park. Trilane counts legends like Swedish House Mafia among their inspirations, the influence of which is nuanced in the larger-than-life feel of their productions. Their past releases include releases on Dirty South’s Phazing, Afrojack’s Wall Recordings, and Mirage Records, to name a few. YARO began his music career more recently, but the young prodigy is already one of the best percussionists in his native Sweden; his talent was recognized when he was just a little boy touring around Europe accompanied by the St. Petersburg Symphony Orchestra. He now works with artists such as Icona Pop, Benjamin Ingrosso, and many more. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for both of these talented members of the Protocol crew!

Radical right-wing pastor Paula White goes viral after she delivered a prayer service speaking in tongues in order to secure Trump’s reelection. Not to mention, she even called on “angelic reinforcement” from Africa and South America. Creatively, Seattle-based DJ vxrt uploaded a House remix video on Twitter adding his own funny twist. Personally, I don’t think the spiritual adviser to the former American president can make “miracles” at the moment, but I’m sure she’s having us laughing out loud with her nonsense/crazy attitude.

On more than one occasion, she has been criticized for using religion to manipulate people of faith. Those evangelicals who continue to support Trump and are willing to turn a blind eye to his bigotry and racism should reflect on their wrong actions…

So far, I want to congratulate my American friends on the promising victory of Joe Biden. Well, I can’t think of anything to say besides FUCK Donald Trump. 😂

There is something exotic and extraordinarily enigmatic about this new song titled “Shiva” by Volt’R. Hailing from Lyon, France, the prolific producer used to be a member of the IMAGINE collective. Not to mention, this allowed him to perform with notable DJs in the music industry like Magda, Miguel Campbell, Catz N’ Dogz, Tiefschwarz, among others. He started creating tunes in 2010 due to his love for the Progressive House genre. Nevertheless, shortly after, he felt intrigued by Melodic Techno and House rhythms to date.

As the title suggests, “Shiva” is a great example of oriental-esque elements mixed with driving electronic beats. Certainly, this club banger also works as a powerful mantra to listen to on the dancefloor. A 9-minute cut that gives off positive energy geared toward making you enjoy the best night out.

In case you didn’t know, Volt’R has signed plenty of tracks on worldwide labels such as VFTR, Central Dogma, Sound On Sound, Dolphin Records, etc. If you think he’s already demonstrating impressive soundscapes on “Shiva,” you can’t wait to hear what’s next for party lovers. Stay tuned on his socials down here, and grab your free download.

Both the original and remixes distance themselves from the mainstream EDM sound. Here the production quality is hypnotic and dark as it integrates a mix of lo-fi beats and pounding rhythms. Add to this, an underlying sensuality in the vocals accompanied by a touch of mystery. All the producers behind this project weave together well-crafted tunes with a meditative yet driving late-night groove. Therefore, the ‘Hush’ EP is one of the most triumphant offerings in the genre. No doubt, Truesounds Music shows appreciation to the clubbers, bloggers, and radio stations who have supported their releases over the years with a special EP that glows with fascinating sounds to get lost in.
