New Modestep Release

I know that To The Stars has been around already for a while. Today however is the official release date and you will be able to buy the new track on iTunes. It already made it onto the BBC Radio 1 A-list.

Modestep really made a name for themselves after the release of the smash hit Sunlight. Their music video was seen by 1 million people after just 4 days on Youtube. That says something about their mainstream success. What really makes Modestep stand out from the rest of the Dubstep acts of today is the mainstream friendly vocals by Josh Friend.

To The Stars isn't much different from Sunlight. It starts quite calm and evolves into a big drop followed by some interesting dubstep. However we don't have any change of tempo in this track like we had in Sunlight, where the tempo suddenly changed into some kind of drumstep like final. Instead, in the ending of To The Stars we can enjoy an interesting Heavy Metalish guitar solo. I haven't seen these guys live, but I guess this song is a candidate for the "WE WANT MORE" part of the live performance.

The new song was of course remixed by a lot of different DJ's around the world. This one by Document One maybe recieved the most of the attention.

Deadmau5 remixed by Special Features

You have to be very brave to mix music that is already considered to be complete. Well, that is something that the still pretty unknown House music producer Special Features dared to do with Deadmau5's masterpiece Strobe. Final result by the London DJ came out unbelievably good. Close to perfect.

Here's the Deadmau5 original full length album version for you to compare the remix with:

Turn on the Radio and Clap Your Hands!

Utku S. is constantly releasing new music for the Electro House crowd. In the last 12 months he released about 30 tracks on SoundCloud. This is of course both own tracks and remixes.


The DJ and sound producer located in Istanbul, Turkey surprised us yesterday, by uploading two previews of new tracks that will be released in a few days on Tapestop Music (Beatport). It's Turn on the Radio and Clap Your Hands!


As usual there is a lot of interesting new sounds in Utku S. productions. Uplifting melodies, dubstep influences, clean base sounds and some distorted guitar riffs every now and then.


I prefer to listen to the latest preview he released. But if you are interested in the other new stuff, please go check out his SoundCloud profile! YAYAY!

New Music Released by King Kornelius

I think I have made this blog into an addiction. Music is something I live for. And I am really not so surprised that I'm making my 4th post just in 2 days.

King Kornelius is to me still a rather unknown Electro House DJ and producer. I've only heard Milk & Cookies that he produced with the American Alex Kidd and The Bully with JELO

What I found out about him is that he is Canadian and makes really good music. On his Facebook page I also found out that his name is actually Neil Hatherall AND he is a normal man (so a bit of a disappointment there for all you people who really thought he was a king)! 

Anyway, I think you should check out his latest hit Off with his Head which was officially released on Beatport only 2 days ago, and labled Exclusive! 

If you like this, BUY IT. But until then, I embedded this Youtube video for you all to enjoy!

If you can't get enough of King Kornelius after listening to this! Please visit his SoundCloud profile, where you will find more tracks, remixes and bootlegs. For example this remix!

Welcome back for more music and reviews on ElectroCloud!

Own Productions Released by Geometry

I happened to stumble upon an interesting French electro-duo with potential, when I was checking some random music sources. Geometry have been around last couple of months releasing remixes and bootlegs on tracks by artists such as Dada Life & You Killing Me. 

Last month they have released two own productions on SoundCloud, and it seems very promising.

First they released Triggernometry which is good. But in my opinion the latest track, named simply Lou, is one step ahead.

Let's hope we will see more from Geometry in the future! I'll be wishing them good luck!

Popeska Impresses

So here we go with the first post about new music on this blog.

Today I found a really interesting artist that I think we all should have a look at. It's the unsigned Atlanta located Popeska who seem to be publishing new tracks every third or so day. The 18-year old producer have really found a good sound in his Electro / Dubstep influenced tracks. I have to say that quality is improving for every single track he's releasing. And it is my guess that Popeska will become a returning name in our ears.

This track was released just 8 hours ago. There is something in this music that just makes me wanna Dance. I wonder why? And yeah, the drop is amazing with quality bass sound.

Also have a look at his other tracks on SoundCloud. They are all free to download (so far)!

So now that you heard. How many days do you think it is before Skrillex signs Popeska?

Hello World!

So I guess I should point out now, before anything, that I am totally new to the world of blogging. It's like creating a homepage for the first time. Only that now i guess the content is more important than ever.

I will start by telling you, potential reader, about who I am.

My name is Robin and I live in a small town called Vasa, in the land of the thousand lakes, Finland. I've just passed the age of halfway-to-50, and realized that studies should be finished by now. Therefore I took a small break from my daily work in the boat business and continued my ongoing studies that SHOULD be finished by the fall of 2012. This also explains why I have the time over to work on a blog (because study life in Finland isn't always as effective as it should be)..

This blog which was named Electro Cloud will be featuring mainly posts about new electronic music. What other Eastern Eggs this page will contain is still a mystery. To be honest. I haven't decided yet how serious this blog is going to be. But I guess time will tell. Maybe one of the charming things about blogging is that you really don't know what the future will hold.

The story about my continuous need of electronic music will be published later.

I will post something that will summarize quite good what type of music this blog is going to be about. It is a mix of great music I put together last month (September):
