Track Of The Day | Tiesto & Mark Knight feat. Dino - Beautiful World

Hey guys,


I know it's been quite a long time i haven't updated the blog ... but i've had some sad time as one of my friends lost one of his relatives and i had to be by his side ... hope you understand that, and i know you will.


Anyway, this time i'm coming to share with you my favourite track for this whole month.
Released on Toolroom Records, it is the collaboration between two very huge names in Electronic Dance Music ... Mark Knight & Tiesto ... (you should know either one or the other).
The outcome is a very club-oriented track ... all techy and trancey ... with a very beautiful vocal line from Dino Lenny (aka Dino).


The vocal line repeating "cause if you closed your eyes, it's a beautiful world" spreads a message everyone should understand. Considering all the horrible things happening around the world like the nuclear explosion and the tsunami occuring in Japan, all the strikes against the government in the African countries ... the war against Kadhafi, just to name a few of the recent ones ...
So, all we have to do is to listen to this track, close your eyes ... and just see the good out of the worst in this world.

That's all for today.
Cheers,

Ripple The Sound : Episode 9

Hey everyone! How's life?

Mine's been as usual, full of witches, spells (Yes, I'm a fan of Harry potter) and I've encountered Lord Voldemort recently, he's been fine, but he's dreading the oncoming movie, Haha. 

I'm bringing some crunchy new stuff today :) Ever heard of Adam1time and of the Phoenix Bros? Well, it's high time dudes! I present the new track of M.Strands and Adam1time featuring The Phoenix Bros. Here's the promotional sample. On this one, Nicolas tried to apply his talent to hip hop music, and, seriously, it's a success. No really, that's amazing. The first time I listened to it, I couldn't remove my cursor from the replay button, I couldn't help it. I remember I was singing along while tapping my feet (I couldn't do more, there were people behind me ^^') 

Enjoy! =)

Ripple The Sound : Episode 8

Konishiwa readers! Welcome to Filthy Strands.

These past days, horrible things have happened, and among them, there has been the earthquake which had a huge impact on Northern Japan. It triggered huge tsunamis and for now, it has killed about 1200 people. It is an international matter which is on the mind of millions of people, just like the case of Haiti. Let's just hope that there will be no more deaths. I dedicate this article to them. 

In the mood of listening to world-ranked Djs? Here we go with 'Cinema' from the widely acclaimed -Grammy Winner- Benny Benassi featuring British pop rock singer Gary Go. The beat is right on key and the vocals make the track extremely catchy. This single will be on Benny's fourth upcoming album Spaceship. 
Get pumped!

When things are bad, we take comfort in the thought that they could always be worse. And when they are, we find hope in the thought that things are so bad they have to get better.

Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?

43th Anniversary of Mauritius' Independency | Why celebrate ?

Hey guys, it's like the first time i'm posting just to talk about something else than music.
Every 12th of March, since 1968, we, Mauritians, celebrate the anniversary of our independency ... but honestly, i think it's just some wastage of time because we are still being slaves to that f**king system that we created of our own hands.

Anyway, the only positive thing is that i really like the atmosphere felt on that day. (Haha, i'm a living contradiction)
And i'm proud to be a Mauritian myself, and i partly owe it to you guys who are following me in my achievements.

Anyway, i'm not going to end this post without letting you have some piece of sound to get yourself satisfied. This is a preview of an edit i did of a remix of Tonic's "Fire" by Sulto, which is an unreleased remix. Enjoy this preview !

Ripple The Sound : Episode 7

Hey everyone, here's Mia Margeira...again!

I Really just had to share this mix from M.Strands because it's too awesome to be left in the corner of my computer. Oh gosh I just Couldn't wait till Saturday, when I usually have to post an article prepared for you guys. Poor Mia had to wait ^^' But well, I fell really sick lately but don't worry, I'm fine now. I hate colds. Who doesn't anyway? 

Back to business! =]

Here is the music which made me dread the time I had to wait:

It is a preview of Zebra from the amazing dj-producer AnTiTo mixed by Nicolas Strands -who nicknamed it 'midnight mix'
