S2L's Top 30 of 2012: #25 - #21

Continuing the top 30 tracks of 2012 at #25 is an instrumental trance collaboration between Faruk Sabanci & Mark Sixma, "Starburst." This is followed by "Stadium" and "Rocker Monster," which represents the signature trance sounds of Wezz Devall and Heatbeat respectively. At #22 is the new tune that brings out the best from the duo of Porter Robinson and Mat Zo, "Easy." And finally, Antillas' vocal mix of Roger Shah's "Island," a beautiful vocal trance track, rounds up the list today at #21.

#25 : Faruk Sabanci & Mark Sixma - Starburst (Original Mix)


#24 : Wezz Devall - Stadium (Original Mix)



#23 : Heatbeat - Rocker Monster (Original Mix)


#22 : Porter Robinson & Mat Zo - Easy (Extended Mix)


#21 : Roger Shah feat. Adrina Thorpe - Island (Antillas Vocal Mix)

Tate & Credland feat. DPC - Rise Above The Anarchy (Original Mix)

Julian Jordan - Rock Steady (Original Mix)

The first time I heard "Rock Steady" was the first time I had heard of Julian Jordan. I'm sure this was true for many, and I'm also sure nearly every single listener was blown away by the young and unheard of producer's amazing track.  However, the preview actually has received more attention than the song itself, so for those who maybe haven't heard the full version, or for those who just like massive electro house songs, give "Rock Steady" a listen.

Sebastian Ingrosso & Alesso - Calling (R3hab & Swanky Tunes Remix)

Although Sherman loved it, I was the never biggest fan of "Calling". I'm also not a big fan of R3hab as most of his remixes are filled with the same grinding electro beats. However, R3hab and Swanky Tunes (who are some of my favorite producers) manage to change my mind about both "Calling" and R3hab. The remix has some nice dark undertones and a great little breakdown while managing to maintain the fantastic synths from the original. I for one cannot wait until this is released.

Swedish House Mafia - Greyhound (Original Mix)

Today, Swedish House Mafia finally released their newest single, "Greyhound". They first played this song in their live set at Madison Square Garden and announced the track name in BBC's Swedish House Mafia Takeover radio show about a month ago. Not the greatest track they've made and to be honest they don't live up to their expectations when having three of the greatest Swedish producers creating this group. However, I hope the SHM fans still enjoy this track!

Sebastian Ingrosso & Alesso - Calling 'Lose My Mind' (Vocal Mix)

Last week I posted two short previews of this song. And today, finally, the full version of this vocal anthem is first played on Swedish House Mafia Essential Mix. The vocals compliment "Calling" wonderfully and just makes the amazing song even better!

Sebastian Ingrosso & Alesso – Calling “Lose My Mind” (Preview)

"Calling", produced by two of my favourite House DJs Sebastian Ingrosso of Swedish House Mafia and Alesso, was one of the biggest tracks of 2011. Now we have two short but sweet teasers of the vocal version of the song. The first preview was shared last week through Ingrosso's Soundcloud and today, the followup to the first preview was released. Both of them are 25 seconds long, and if you’ve already heard the first one, the next one starts off exactly where the last one left off. We will keep you posted on its official release date. Enjoy!

Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (dBerrie Remix)

I remember a few months ago dBerrie had a fantastic remix of Tiesto's Work Hard Play Hard. Once again, he amazes me with yet another wonderful remix.

Josh Raymond feat. Miss Palmer - Feel It For The First Time (No Beef Vocal)

A great house track produced by Josh Raymond featuring the vocals of Miss Palmer from another great track last year, Afrojack and Steve Aoki's "No Beef". Download on Soundcloud for free!
