Sebastian Ingrosso & Tommy Trash feat John Martin - Reload

Sebastian Ingrosso was one of the members of Swedish House Mafia which recently disbanded. He teams up with producer Tommy Trash and vocalist John Martin (he sang on the SHM hits "Save The World" and "Don't You Worry Child"). This song was previously an instrumental, but now a new vocal mix has been premiered on Radio1's Essential Selection. This song is in a similar vein as earlier SHM vocal tracks, however, it is all the more poignant in light of SHM disbanding. The vocals have the urgency and emotion in them that Bono and Chris Martin did on their work with U2 and Coldplay respectively. An edit of this could help this one do as well as "Don't You Worry Child."

Swedish House Mafia feat John Martin - Don't You Worry Child

This is their latest single. It is vocal-oriented track in a similar vein as last year's "Save The World." Lyrically it is very positive and hopeful. The vocals by John Martin are beautiful. They call to mind some of Bryan Adams' earlier work. The instrumental production is ethereal and uplifting. The main riff calls to mind the ones used in Coldplay's "Every Tear Is A Waterfall" and Avicii's "Levels." This one would find success in both clubland on mainstream radio.
