SONG OF THE DAY: Nervo – “Hold On”?
These Aussie twins have had quite a busy year touring and producing.? It seems they’ve found the magical secret of collaboration – working with someone and melding their sound with their own to create something unique, and often even more magical as a result.? For example, “You’re Gonna Love Again” blended Avicii’s signature stadium sound with their upliftingly, pretty, and inspirational Oprah-esque lyrics.? Working with R3hab must have been a challenge.? R3hab is so well-known (and loved) for his signature aggressive “chainsaw” electro sound that you can usually trainspot his work within two measures.? “Hold On” is a masterful combination of the hard and the pretty, perfectly blended together.? It isn’t one of those tracks where you can say – “Oh this is the R3hab part and this is the Nervo part” – you can really sense that they were all in sync and were aiming to experiment to make something true to their influences/sounds that was also unique and different.? The results are so strong that I have a feeling that “Hold On” might be the track that crosses them over to the mainstream.

INTERVIEW: Dyro (2013)
A highlight of the Amsterdam Dance Event is always finding the rising talent.? There is even a special day for ADE Next, highlighting aspiring producers/DJs learning the trade.? Dyro made the jump from attending the Next panel to being on the Next panel in the span of year. ? His track “Metaphor” received massive support from David Guetta and “Sky High,” his track with Amba Shepherd, was picked up by Strictly Rhythm.? Add to that remixes of high profile artists like Katy Perry, Afrojack, and Example, and you will hear why 2012 was such a good year for Dyro and why he is a rising star to watch for.
RS: How was the Revealed party last night?
Dyro: It was amazing; there was a really energetic crowd. It was different for me to play to a crowd that was really into the music. There was a good flow and I really enjoyed it.
