Laidback Luke Ft. Example – Natural Disaster (Moska & Phantim Bootleg) by phantim
Here’s a track from one of the emerging talents in Europe- the UK’s Kryder. He’s famed for his big room trance and house sounds; the smash hit K2 which was signed by Tiesto and played by all and sundry including the Swedish House Mafia; and his unique ‘sci-fi visor’ look, lunacy and sidekick dwarf in a Mexican wrestling mask.
Kryder was chosen to remix Laidback Luke and Example’s Natural Disaster which you can listen to as a preview below. The full track will be released soon and it’ll be something you will not want to miss!

Uncompromising? No. Uplifting? Yes.
Laidback Luke does it again on a Friday Night Stupendous-Delight, coaxing a limited amount of Wynter Gordon’s vocals over his renowned L.L. production hammers! Only for the headstrong this remix lasts the full twelve rounds in the ring.
Arguably, Martin Solveig’s greatest production to date (and biggest turnaround to a new musical style) is ‘Hello,’ which has crossed the world strobes over.
On this nearly over-looked single from 2010, the sublime overtones from Dragonette a’la Kaskade fame (whilst not forgetting their collaboration with the mighty Tiësto on his current “Kaleidoscope” album), puts ‘Boys & Girls’ up, up, up n’ away in the shape of some skyward-lifting Laidback Luke melodies, and housey hard action for all clubbers to enjoy.
Sounding ever-so beautiful as a mere Dub, doesn’t shy this away from lighting up any dreary face or sending those dance floors into a pushy, sweaty frenzy. Great use of the riff pattern featured and not a comparison with ‘Hey Boy Hey Girl’ in sight!
This one is at the “front of the pile” Ladies & Gents!

Calvin Harris’ new single You Used To Hold Me releases from the late album Ready for the Weekend next Tuesday, February 9th, 2010. As a sample, Harris released the official music video, which until now, flew under my radar. The track is a pretty decent floor banger;

What we have in terms of available remixes is versions from Laidback Luke and Nero. Check ‘em out below. Nero’s take is pretty delicious. Those that don’t want to wait until next Tuesday for the original may just have to take a gander over on hype machine.
Over the past week I came across some new inviting house remixes by Laidback Luke. Both are fixated on heavy synth sequences and layers of loops. Luke has an elaborate playful way of mixing up the original samples and spinning them to his desire. He takes both these tracks for a walk, especially the earlier touch-up to MSTRKRFT/Jon Legend’s Heartbreaker. Included also is the classic remix to MJ’s Thriller. Halloween’s is around the corner so it’s an excellent grab.
2009 has been an impressive year so far for the Netherlands producer. The collaboration with the Swedish House Mafia on Leave The World Behind was Beatports best-selling song of the year as of July 09. He’s also been on tour all year- from Australia to Ibiza so far with upcoming shows in Europe, Russia and Singapore. If you are in one of these areas it would be worth the investment to check the show. Dates can be found on his myspace.
