Top 5 Tracks
Masif DJs – Passion (MDA and Spherical Mix)
Brand new from the studio! Produced especially for our forthcoming Remix EP on Volts Wagen, this tune covers the Amen UK classic. It’s incredibly fun, uplifting, cheesy and probably wins the award for ‘silliest riff in hard dance’ but it never fails to rock the party!

Technikal feat MC Whizzkid – Music for a Harder Generation
This is a fantastically original tune with some great rapping vocals that Alf was asked to produce especially for the forthcoming Music for a Harder Generation 5 CD. It’s funky, fun, clever and hugely twisted - just how we like it.

Vinylgroover and Organ Donors – Big Fun
We’ve always had a soft spot for these three when they collaborate (the previous ‘Techno Shock’ was a belter!) and this time they’ve covered the hugely popular Innercity classic. Done to perfection, the familiar riff and vocal tingle everybody’s nostalgic cells and then it drops into an absolute monster of techy-heaven.

Ferry Corsten - Rock Your Body, Rock (Eskimo Remix)
We’re big lovers of Eskimo and the insane tracks he produces here at MandS towers. Here he takes on Ferry Corsten’s best work and adds his own unique twists – there’s even an electro section! Instant crowd pleaser with intricate choppy production makes this a surefire winner.

Steve Hill vs MDA & Spherical – Getting High
The first of many collaborations with the Aussie Hard Trance maestro. This tune encompasses our new thumping Euro-influenced Hard Trance sound we’re launching. Huge riffs, a huge bass and a wicked little vocal. More like this to follow!

Tracks to…

Start the night
Far Too Loud – Play It Loud (MDA & Spherical Intro Edit)
‘This is your Sound System speaking…. I am now in control’ is the robotic vocal that starts this tune off. Far Too Loud is an amazing breaks producer whose stuff we love. Here we’ve taken his best work and given it the hard dance re-rub. When this kicks off, you know it’s time to party!.

Keep the energy
MDA & Spherical – The Prodigy Megamix
This track has morphed and evolved so many times it’s different every time we play it out! Currently, it’s a fast-paced hard dance stomper with Voodoo People, Firestarter, Outta Space, Charly, Smack My Bitch Up, and No Good 4 Me getting the crowd going crazy. Who knows, maybe it’ll have more in it by 25th May?!

End the Night
Technikal vs MDA & Spherical – Supersonic
Yes, we know, it’s months old now, but there is NO other tune that we play that guarantees an instant crowd cheer whenever the bassline is dropped. We and Alf are extremely happy with this tune - we like to think it’s by far the best thing we’ve ever produced. We’ve pencilled in plans for the follow up in the next couple of months, too.
