Kevin de Vries - Dance With Me (ANNA Live Version)

Several Definitions demonstrate his prowess in the electronic music scene once again with his debut on Future Romance called "This Is Not a Rave." Accompanied by a remarkable remix from the talented artist Tantum, this release delivers an electrifying experience that oscillates between a euphoric melodic techno rave hymn and a stripped-down, yet highly effective dancefloor track. 

The original mix sets the tone from the very beginning with its enchanting melodic layers that effortlessly transport the listener into a world of sonic wonder. "This Is Not a Rave" cleverly blends haunting synth progressions with driving basslines and ravy stabs, immediately captivating the listeners attention and building anticipation for the musical journey ahead. As the track progresses, Several Definitions masterfully crafts dynamic peaks and valleys, maintaining a mesmerizing momentum that never wavers. The soaring euphoria of the track is reminiscent of classic rave anthems, and it evokes a nostalgic feeling for seasoned ravers while remaining fresh and appealing to a new generation of electronic music enthusiasts. This balance between old-school rave sensibilities and contemporary melodic techno elements adds a timeless quality to "This Is Not a Rave." 

In contrast, Tantum's remix takes the essence of the original mix and presents it in an entirely new light. Stripping away some of the layers, Tantum distills the track to its core, focusing on the essential rhythmic elements and captivating melodies. The remix has a more minimalist approach, allowing the listener to focus on the intricate details of the soundscape. While it may seem more stripped-down, Tantum's artistic vision doesn't compromise the track's effectiveness on the dancefloor.

The 15th instalment of Diynamic Music’s “Four To The Floor” series is here. By now they have become a go-to resource for DJs looking for dancefloor-oriented music as all tracks of the series have been heavily road tested and certified by label boss Solomun on his countless gigs all over the world, hence being great assets for peak time sets.
Opening the release is Dino Lenny’s “I Lost Appetite”, which is inspired by the classic 80’s track “Flying Turns” from Crash Course in Science. The band gave their approval of Lenny’s production and are credited as co-writers to this nostalgic chaser. Following up is Hamburg-bred Doctor Dru, with his similarly eerie and 80s enthused “Kloeppel”, a deep dark disco house track.
The second half of the record begins with “Roast” by The Organism, a very synth heavy melodic techno tune that slowly builds a dark retro ambience with almost mathematical precision. And finally “1991” by Berlin-based Budakid, whose dreamy house pads give this edition of the FTTF series a very round finish.
