This track should sound familiar because it’s made an appearance in various big name DJ’s sets. Or if you’re a Kaskade fan you know this track from his mashup that was released last year “Be Still Bang Bang”. Franz Novotny is an up and coming DJ from Sweden (no surprise there) and for someone who’s only been around for about a year this is a pretty solid track. It was first previewed on soundcloud months ago after his first popular track “Crunch”. This track is definitely calmer than “Crunch” and much more melodic. About a minute in a melodic intro starts in with a variety of light synths. However once it gets to the drop it’s just a different melodic pattern with a faint bass beat underneath, which due to the buildup you definitely don’t expect. It then leads in to an acoustic piano pattern, which is totally unexpected as well. The track goes back and forth between progressive and trance sounds and overall very well constructed.
One of the remixes of this track that was released is from up and coming DJ Digital LAB. Digital LAB is an up and coming DJ from Miami and I like the slight changes he made in his remix. In the beginning he keeps the light progressive sound but then puts a deeper melodic pattern underneath, which you would expect in a dubstep or harder electro track. He takes the original drop and makes it more hard hitting (in my opinion better) than the original and gives it that classic upbeat house sound.
