Matt Hardwick – I Am DJ [Kill The Lights]

When it comes to new labels, few can claim to have made the same impact as Matt Hardwick’s imprint “Kill the Lights”. Since it was launched late last year with Matt’s “Supernal” featuring the ethereal vocals of Melinda Gareh, to critical acclaim, the label has delivered release after release of pure quality.

Featured artists and remixes have included Askew, Activa, Duderstadt and Senadee and as we reach the fifth release, it is back to Matt to deliver another quality single to add to the collection. Matt brings together two of his favourite influences with this one as he seamlessly merges the best elements of both progressive and trance to devastating effect.

To add to the package, Ben Gold turns in one of his best remixes to date. And finally, Niklas Grosswald finishes off the release with a remix that shows that he can cut it with the best of them and is very clearly one to watch!!

Read on for high quality samples and my breakdown of each track.  As always, be sure to vote for your favorite.
