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."

David Guetta, Sebastian Ingrosso, Dirty South & Julie McKnight - How Soon Is Now

This is not a remake of the classic by The Smiths. It is a new track produced by three of Europe's electronic music legends including David Guetta, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Dirty South featuring the vocals from Julie McKnight (of King Of Tomorrow's "Finally" fame). This is very much in the same vein as the "Leave The World Behind" track which was released in the middle of Spring. However, this one goes a bit further. The instrumental isn't as aggressive and it has an old school vibe. It has a classic feel to it already. Julie McKnight sounds amazing as usual.

Axwell, Ingrosso, Angello, Laidback Luke feat. Deborah Cox - Leave The World Behind

There had been considerable buzz surrounding this track ever since it was first discussed a couple months back. A short, live recording of it had leaked on YouTube, but those not in the know didn't know that they could get a taste of this once-in-a-lifetime collaboration. Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso, Steve Angello and Laidback Luke have been a major force in European Dance music and Deborah Cox has been huge here in the U.S. Dance clubs. What happens when these two forces unite? Something truly major.

The production on the track is quite interesting. It's a little Electro, kinda afterhours-ish, but it's also a little filtered. Deborah's familiar vocals come in about halfway into the main mix after a nice steady buildup. She sounds wonderful.

There's only one version of this so far. That's all it may really need. The way the track is done, it could fit into a variety of sets. This will be huge on both sides of the Atlantic.

This track is available for purchase as an exclusive through Beatport right now. Search for the artist Laidback Luke and it will take you to this track.
