Laidback Luke & Yves V feat. Hawkboy – To The Beat [Mixmash Records]
There’s nothing like some good, old-fashioned electro from two veterans, Laidback Luke and Yves V. “To The Beat” really thrives because of the experiences of both artists.
“To The Beat” first made waves earlier this year during Tomorrowland Brasil. Both artists had high-profile sets, and featured the song prominently in them. Plus, it also got featured during this year’s Tomorrowland aftermovie.
I say “good, old-fashioned electro” in the lede because “To The Beat” is a bit of a throwback in its composition. The breakdown starts with a simple flute synth repeating the same note, but then it breaks out into an energetic melody. Don’t forget what that chord progression sounds like, since it serves as an important building block for the whole song. After a buildup sequence that features Hawkboy on vocals, Laidback Luke and Yves V unleash a drop that brings no mercy. A thumping bassline and grinding top synth are perfect companions to create the perfect late-summer electro smash.
