Morten – Look Closer (Remixes)
As one of Denmark’s most celebrated DJs, Morten is no stranger to the spotlight. Characterized by his eclectic take on progressive, electro-house and dubstep, it’s no surprise he’s caught the attention of dance music’s biggest trend- setters and will be releasing his next three singles on PRMD Music.
Earlier this year, Morten’s biggest single to date – “Look Closer” – premiered on SiriusXM to rave reviews, was featured on Avicii’s world-renowned podcast, LE7ELS and aired on “Pete Tongs Essential Selection“ on BBC1. With support from Axwell, Avicii, Cazzette, R3hab, David Tort and EDX at such an early stage can only mean one thing: summer smash anthem!
As if the euphoria of the original couldn’t be maxed any more, House DJ/producer Danny Verde catapults his refix into progressive house territory clashing aggressive synth stabs reverberations against a tirade of shapeshifting percussion. Meanwhile, Santa Barbara natives Candyland, twist and meld together a fidgety low end bassline and erratic melody moves with an unapologetic dose of heavy hitting dubstep.
On top of this Swedish duo WeSmile bring their own progressive take on the track with extended synth washes and harmonic components complimenting the blissful vocal line. Finally David Tort retains the euphoric core elements of the track for smooth uplifting build-ups, which he breaks down into a contrasting abrasive electro house remix with a gritty prominent bassline.

Norman Doray – Filtré (Original Mix)
The latest release on Avicii’s highly acclaimed imprint, ‘Le7els’ along with Ash Pournouri‘s recently formed PRMD music, comes from none other than Norman Doray!
Changing the pace for his debut LE7ELS release, “Filtré”, Norman takes to unleashing a steady stream of drum fills and billowing synth-work. He also gives us a taste of his vast breadth of musical knowledge, delivering a cascade of striated chord play and showing the world that he’s got more up his sleeve than just big room, peak time progressions.
“This is funny cos it’s a real different track from what I usually do, it was more of a side track that I did for me to listen to as I love French house and all these Daft Punk/Crydamoure stuff. But I thought it would be interesting to put this record out and see how the new “EDM” generation would react. We will have a response to that soon as the track is signed to Avicii’s label “Le7els” and will have a release soon. I’m really happy that Tim and Ash are going in this direction and trying to get the things changing and not simply signing trancy chord tracks like millions of others!”, he says talking about the release.
Heavily influenced by Daft Punk, Doray diverts away from the big room sound’s traditional pathways and inclines himself towards the more groovier side of dance music. Focusing on instrumentation, ‘Filtré’ is a mix of energized beats, horn samples, and the glowing undertone of bass. This seems like one track which is going to form an essential part of your playlist.
