Afrojack Part 1: Original Productions
When it comes to dance tracks that put you in the perfect mood to get silly, it doesn't get much better than Dutch-house producer Afrojack. He stormed onto the house scene in 2008 and quickly made a name for himself with his quirky production style, full of bouncy melodies and cavernous kick drums that sound downright wicked on a good system. The first song of his that I fell in love with was "Bangduck," which blatantly draws from Boris Dlugosch's playful anthem "Bangkok," turning it into an even wackier track. Recently, he's teamed up with fellow Dutch producer Sidney Samson for the outrageous and aptly-titled "Quacky." I can picture 1,000 sweaty bodies simultaneously going bonkers to this at a rave in some seedy rundown warehouse. He also just released "Louder Than Words," a heavy-hitting vocal house collaboration with über-star David Guetta that actually brings in some trance sounds without turning me off to it. It's already claimed the #1 spot on Beatport, and we'll definitely remember it as one of the biggest tracks of 2010, so get this one while it's hot! I can't post the full 320 kbps file, but I did add a cool new Beatport downloader for your purchasing convenience (I realize the colors clash like whoa but bear with us for the time being). And be sure to check back tomorrow for round two of my Afrojack post with some of my favorite remixes he's done.
