#SLAtop5 Simon Lee & Alvin x think IN electronic Top 5 (December 2014)

Every month Simon Lee & Alvin share with think IN electronic their 5 favourite discoveries (in no particular order) and tell us why they love these records!

Jay Cosmic & Husman - Universe [MAINSTAGE MUSIC / ARMADA]

Simon Lee : Blown away on first listen! Husman has a unique sound that I can now identify, I've been following his music for a while now. This is a great collab!

Alvin : Huge, energetic and dynamic track. Having Jay Cosmic on the collab has definitely proven the right choice with his diversity in terms of genre experimentation. It has everything you would want to enjoy on the dancefloor.

Nicky Romero & Anouk - Feet On The Ground (Merk & Kremont Remix) [PROTOCOL]

A : “Feet on the Ground” is already a catchy track and with Anouk on the vocals, it just sounds even better. One thing is for sure, this is definitely Nicky Romero’s style as you’ll notice his touches all over the track. With Merk & Kremont on the remix, the vocals are accentuated perfectly and you strangely find yourself bobbing your head more :) 

SL : I first heard this on a radio mix and had that on repeat for the next 30 minutes on my drive home! It's great to hear how much Merk & Kremont have grown this year, they definitely took this single to the next level!

Cash Cash Surrender (Pierce Fulton Remix) [BIG BEAT]

SL : This remix package was to me, one of the best for 2014. I love all the remixes Big Beat selected. If I had to shortlist just one it would be Pierce Fulton's remix.

A : The original Cash Cash "Surrender" track is what I believe to be the perfect radio friendly electro-pop track. Now what Pierce Fulton has done is make it workable on both terrestrial and on the dancefloor. Job well done mate!

New World Punx - Torque [NEW WORLD PUNX / BLACK HOLE]

A : Always have been a fan of New World Punx releases and “Torque” is no exception. If you don’t know who they are then all you should know is they consist of Markus Schulz and Ferry Corsten. Need I say more? :)

SL : When the two maestros combine forces, you can't go wrong!

Cedric Gervais - Love Again ft. Ali Tamposi [POLYDOR / INTERSCOPE]

SL : Cedric knows what type of type to release and when. He spaces his releases out which is a really great thing! It sure sounds like he worked really hard on this single and the music video.

A : You might have heard of French DJ/producer, Cedric Gervais from his famous track, “Molly” and who can forget his superb remix of Lana Del Rey's "Summertime Sadness". In this track, Cedric collaborates with Ali Tamposi, a singer songwriter who has previously co-written for Kelly Clarkson‘s “Stronger” and Ciara‘s “Overdose”.
