Same goes for the number 4, Armin’s remix of ‘Nova Zembla’. Heading up the Top 3 this week, is Maison & Dragen’s ‘Rio de Janeiro’! With the carnival about to kick off, timing couldn’t be better!

Ireland and Scotland’s finest join forces on the intricate beat battle of ‘Incline’. A deep prog-trancer with a dark feel came to live from the David Forbes and Full Tilt studios.

David Forbes, a long-time music junkie that’s been at it for more than 20 years. His releases, from his latest ones ‘Yasai’ to duo ‘Dalton 91′ and ‘Touchscreen’, never left the floors untouched. Timmy Gibson & Tommy Conway, shaking worlds with a variety of sounds, from the maddening Timmy & Tommy works to the deeper stuff on the Full Tilt moniker. Together, it all resounds in ‘Incline’.

Deep melodic layers, strong synths and a techy intermezzo, this one will rush right in.

Scotland’s producer Stuart Trainer gave ‘Incline’ a firm shake. He’s pitched it up, toying around with its melody and turned it into a quality, techy floor destroyer.

It’s a bit of a mystery project, but that doesn’t make the debut E.P. of London based producer duo Roodmusic any less exciting. These guys like it loud, kicking off a promising career with ‘Cool’ and ‘Name’!

These guys might be classically trained, but pushing the boundaries of house music is their real drive and passion. With a young and open mind, the brother of RoodmuSic hit into the Pilot 6 label with definite impact. ‘Cool’ has the laidback feel of tech-house, but the maddening core of peak-time electro-house. This one will sweep the floors, from Miami to Amsterdam. ‘Name’ is the vocal piece of them two, rushing in with an electro shock, heavy distortion and a great dancefloor vibe for the highlight moments.

Keep an eye on these gents, future’s looking bright!
