Nari & Milani finally return to the remix circuit months after letting the “Brohammer” loose. Trademarking their explosive drops and hard-hitting sound on “Atom,” the boys are back with some more of the same on their remix for Icona Pop. “I Love It” features sporadic vocal bursts and a dispersion of melodic commotion, but Nari & Milani define the track with their signature deep, relentless bass and synth compound. Along with their remix comes versions from Sick Individuals and more, so head to Beatport for the official release from Big Beat.

Australian teenage producer Walden is back with his newest single “Ciaco” (out today on Beatport) after massive success from hits like “Brightness” and more recently “Warmonger” on Big Beat Records. Not exactly sure what’s going on in this music video (is it an ode to Avatar? Tron? A weird spacey cartoon acid trip? Back to the Future Part 4?), but it gives us an opportunity to listen to the full track uninterrupted. Sign up now if you’re in the mood for an all-or-nothing synthed-out dance party in your headphones.
After spending his summer spinning for the sophisticated Ibiza crowd, 17 year old Danny Avila is finally ready to release his first single. “Breaking Your Fall” is a complex progressive house track that uses a little helping of electro to complement the progressive chords and make this worthy of any dance floor. The added vocals give the song a pop feel that could allow it to be featured on mainstream radio. Avila has positioned himself as the newcomer for 2013 and it is clear he plans to make an impact. “Breaking Your Fall” is now available from Big Beat Records on Beatport.
One to always stay relevant in the release circuit, John Dahlback follows his own “Get Wild” with a remix for Promise Land. Complete with big room melody and a euphoric vocal from Georgi Kay, “Emotions” is a well rounded dance offering that has been electrified by its remixes. Dahlback leaves the harmonic side of the track alone while swapping Promise Land’s progressive catalyst for his own electro contribution. While his rendition may not come as a drastic change from the original, the new flavor broadens its appeal. Grab Dahlback’s take of “Emotions,” along with remixes from Mikael Weermets and Master Mood from Beatport via Big Beat.
