It's boom time.
Dzeko & Torres (ft. Delaney Jane) - "Air"
Toronto-based singer-songwriter Delaney Jane teams up with the duo Dzeko & Torres, also from Toronto, Canada. The result is a progressive house banger that just can't be denied. This was a YouTube find, and it was able to hit me right away. The one downside of this is that the first chorus should be a full vocal lead into the drop instead of the extended/choppy effect that was used. But that's a minor issue as the track follows a normal structure after that. My favorite part is @1:04 where you can feel the energy of both D&T and Jane at full speed. "Freedom take me tonight..."
Delaney Jane is a newcomer, at least in my world, as this was the first time I ever heard her awesome voice. She's collabed with Adventure Club and some other artists, so hopefully she'll continue to sing on tracks like this.
Here's a link to an interview from her:
Interview. I'll just pick one quote.
Quote:
Q:Why do you do what you do?
A: Making music is the only thing that makes me feel truly alive.

Markus Schulz (ft. Delacey) - "Destiny"
Another newcomer for me is Delacey, who reminds me of Delaney Jane, just with a raspier voice. I like the video as well, but it says all it needs to say and I don't need to describe it in my own words. Delacey has a ton of photos and info on her
Facebook if you want to check out her stuff. Lots of selfies, but some nice artistic photos as well. And on the production front, as is often the case, Schulz rules.
JES - "Ghost" [tyDi Remix]
This is one of the earlier songs I came across when I was getting into this kind of music. I heard the original first, and even though I liked the structure of it, I needed something with a little more kick and movement to it. So, it was off to YouTube to type in the title and then add "remix" to see what their algorithm would spit out at me. From there I sifted through the remixes and liked this enough to be satisfied. This was the first time I heard of tyDi as well. I'll have more from him later, so I'll hold off on any kind of bio write-up at this point in time. It's about the tunage anyway.
I'm going to hit the brakes on things for my next entry by picking some slower jams. Slow doesn't always have to = boring. That's all for now.
