Valencia James – Chills
(Spotify)

“-Valencia James- pleased us with the unexpectedly high-quality and amazing balance in sound. Clear and crystal vocals that fit perfectly into an advanced mix. We also noticed some interesting binding elements and catchy chorus!”

“-Valencia James- порадовала неожиданно качественным звучанием всех инструментов и удивительным балансом в звуке. Прозрачный и читаемый вокал, который идеально вписывается в общий микс. Интересные связующие бриджи и шикарный припев!”

-Nagamag.com

"Chills” is an electronic pop song that was written by Valencia, and produced by Valencia and Peter James. This is Valencia's first release where she is introducing herself not only as a songwriter but also as a producer and she's poured heart and soul into this one. Every percussive layer, texture, sound, etc... was purposefully placed in each section to give the listener an immersive experience so that they can feel every lyric and vocal sung. With her sonic ear and Peter's technical skills, they have created something that they are proud to share with the world. Valencia feels it's also fitting that the song is being released just in time for Halloween as the song matches the feel of one of her favourite holidays and hopes her listeners get the "chills" as they listen and enjoy the song. This is an exciting new change of pace for Valencia and if anything, these last 2 years have shown her there’s no time like the present to back yourself, challenge yourself, and just go for the dreams you never thought you could, because no one knows what the future holds.

Nicky Romero takes it back to the "Generation 303" roots with his newest track of meaningful title "Acid Is My DNA," a hard-hitting bomb that calls for late-night dance floors. True to form, Romero creates a high-energy and dance-worthy sound with a killer combination of driving basslines and intense buildups, which feature laser samples, and deep, rhythmic drops. The veteran producer and Protocol label head's love of acid-influenced music started way back in 2012 with "Generation 303" on Musical Freedom and continued with "Ready 2 Rumble," and more throughout his career. Following his progressive vocal production "Love Me Better," dance/pop single "Okay" with MARF & Wulf and underground-style "Awakening" as Monocule, "Acid Is My DNA" is yet another example of Nicky Romero's stellar ability to successfully experiment with different sounds.

After taking the world by storm with early hits such as "Legacy" with Krewella and the #1 single "I Could Be The One" with Avicii, Nicky Romero quickly proved that his talent is ever-evolving and here to stay. After launching his Protocol Recordings imprint in 2012, the renowned performer, producer, and label head continued his personal successes with a string of high-profile releases, ranging from collaborations with Armin van Buuren, David Guetta, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, W&W, Timmy Trumpet and Steve Aoki to remixes for the likes of Robin Schulz, Kygo, Rita Ora, Steve Aoki, Martin Garrix, Jess Glynne and more. While showcasing his label's roster via his weekly Protocol Radio show, Nicky Romero continues to innovate and evolve, and with his annual "Nicky Romero & Friends" ADE showcase and the launch of Monocule alter-ego, he keeps proving his ability to turn into gold everything he touches.

Heavyweight producer Afrojack and talented newcomers Black V Neck join the ranks of MDLBEAST Records with "To The Floor," a house remake of a hip-hop classic. If you ever went to a house party or club in the 2010s, chances are you heard Waka Flocka Flame and Roscoe Dash's "No Hands." Fast forward a decade, and it's been given a different type of dance-worthy twist; Afrojack and Black V Neck lean heavily into tech house sound with minimal, driving basslines and complementary kickdrums, making a recipe for the perfect late-night underground dancefloor killer. Afrojack recently released "My Sound" with SLVR and Chico Rose, while Black V Neck has just dropped "More" with KrazySucio on Claude VonStroke's infamous DIRTYBIRD. "To The Floor" is the latest in a hot streak for MDLBEAST, which has included Steve Aoki's "Aurora" (as his Ninja Attack project) in addition to Salvatore Ganacci's "Fight Dirty," Cosmicat's "Toxic Romance," Butch's "Testarossa" and R3HAB, Skytech & Fafaq's "Sorry I Missed Your Call."

As one of the most innovative and sought-after artists, Grammy Award-winning producer and DJ Afrojack continues to shatter boundaries that push music in bold new directions. Since making his breakthrough with the multi-platinum-selling single "Take Over Control," the Dutch-born musician has lent his production skills to tracks that bend genres and laid the foundation for major hits for artists such as Beyoncé, Pitbull, Will.i.am, and more. In the last few years, Afrojack was named one of the 50 Most Important People in EDM by Rolling Stone and placed on the Forbes "30 Under 30" music list. In 2010, he was one of the first DJs to secure a Las Vegas residency and continues to entertain global audiences as a headlining resident artist for the Hakkasan group. Afrojack travels the world performing at the biggest clubs/festivals while producing new music with his label Wall Recordings. His most recent worldwide hits such as "Anywhere With You" together with Lucas & Steve and DubVision, "We Got That Cool" with Yves V and Icona Pop, "1234" with Fedde Le Grand featuring MC Ambush add to an impressive repertoire spanning a decade as a global performer and multi-platinum selling artist. One milestone in 2021 was when "HERO" together with David Guetta reached number 1 on the US dance radio chart through amassing an impressive over 40M streams to date.

MDLBEAST is the Middle East's most influential brand that is rapidly evolving. MDLBEAST Records marks another milestone on the company's journey that allows a further cultural exchange between local Middle Eastern artists, global superstars, and audiences around the world. MDLBEAST's game-changing festival in Riyadh - SOUNDSTORM, held its first edition in 2019 with acts such as David Guetta, Martin Garrix, Steve Aoki, Tiësto, Afrojack, and R3HAB, to name only a few, which was just the beginning and more than an event. SOUNDSTORM was a cultural catalyst for Saudi youth, which will be back in action in December 2021 with a star-studded line-up. Until then, keep an eye out for further groundbreaking releases from this exciting imprint.
