Syn Cole – Miami 82 (Avicii Edit) [Preview]
Although Avicii's debut artist album "True" is only two months old, the Swedish juggernaut shows no signs of slowing down his release schedule. Debuted by Pete Tong on Friday, Syn Cole's Miami 82 receives the Avicii treatment and Tim Bergling transforms the original mix into something all his own. The edit is more aggressive than most of Avicii's productions and completely devoid of the melodic climaxes we've all come to know and love from the 24-year-old Swede, but it still showcases Avicii's production prowess and his penchant for creating music that immediately gets stuck in your head.
Syn Cole – April (Original + Progressive Mix)
The latest addition to the At Night family, Syn Cole's two previous remixes were instant hits, proving -- yet again -- the imprint's impeccable ear for talent. Rene Pais's first original release since ditching the Clashback moniker for the progressive house identity of Syn Cole, "April" represents a strong start for the newly re-imagined producer. As an understudy at At Night, there was no doubt that Syn Cole's first original would be tightly produced and bursting at the seams with punchy melodies, but the freshman effort evokes a level of quality not often seen from an inaugural release. Framed by scintillating melody sections, the track bounces between big room progressive house and aggressive dub heavy electro - all without skipping a beat. The two distinct styles work together to create a cohesive identity for what likely is to be the newcomer's warning shot of things to come.
Weekend Rewind: Kerli – The Lucky Ones (Syn Cole vs Kerli Remix)
We are only rewinding back a couple of months for Syn Cole's remix of Kerli's "The Lucky Ones" because, even we can admit -- we missed this one. It didn't catch our attention until Avicii featured it on his December Levels podcast, but it stood out to us as one of the cleanest progressive tracks we've heard in awhile. Syn Cole's silky smooth production style works well with Kerli's pop vocals. Melodic builds, subtle stutters, and Kerli's larger than life vocal morph the original into a track suitable for big rooms and big recognition.
Avicii – Silhouettes (Lazy Rich Remix) [Preview]
Lazy Rich takes Avicii's "Silhouettes" and beats it into submission with his massive electro house style. By starting off with the original's big room, progressive synths, Rich allows the track to build naturally before putting the pedal to the floor and launching into a wildly aggressive breakdown with synths reminiscent of Zedd's infamous "Shave It." While still only a preview with no set release date, we felt that we needed to share this one with you regardless - there is no doubt that it's going to be massive.
