Review: W&W and Blasterjaxx - Rocket

NASA may have cut the Shuttle program but dance music fans can still take a heady trip deep into space thanks to the intergalactic planetary collaboration between W&W and Blasterjaxx called “Rocket.” 

W&W and Blasterjaxx both make music for the biggest stages on their own, so when they come together the result is simply madness. Rocket launches out of the gates with an arresting synth line that plunges into a downright sinister drop. One you’ll be experiencing at festivals all summer long.  

“Rocket” comes on the heels of W&W’s smashing Ultra main stage performance and the release of their recent solo production, “BIGFOOT.” It’s all hits for W&W - 'D# Fat', their highly acclaimed collaboration with Armin van Buuren, the massive 'Jumper' with Hardwell, Beatport #1 smash 'The Code' with Ummet Ozcan (which became the most played track of Miami Music Week 2013), their chart topping remix of Armin van Buuren's 'This Is What It Feels Like' feat. Trevor Guthrie and the official AMF (Amsterdam Music Festival) anthem 'Thunder.’

Blasterjaxx (aka Thom Jongkind and Idir Makhlaf) are considered to be one of the fastest rising stars in dance music.  Hot off their placement on the DJ Mag Top 100 list, only a mere three months after playing their first international DJ gig, Blasterjaxx, recently completed its debut headline tour of North America. On the production front Blasterjaxx kicked off 2014 with releases including #1 Beatport smash “Mystica,” “Titan” (with Bad Dimes), “Astronaut” (with Ibranovski).

Dimitri Kechagias review: We all wonder what is going to happen when the unstopable super successful and rising to the top of the global EDM movement W&W, meet the chart-topping and explosive DJ duo Blasterjaxx in the studio. The result of their battle is the massive 'Rocket' which is destined to rock the Beatport Top 100, and reach the position number one within the next days because it totally deserves it. Rocket is a powerful and highly energetic Class A banger that is so tight and clean production which delivers what is promised; rough sequences followed by euphoric uplifting ones and back again to the harder parts. Rocket is an unimaginable ride that doesn't sound like anything else and doesn't imitate others or their own previous hits in order to be successful again. 'Rocket' is Hard House at its most earth shaking, so you better be prepared to sweat a lot on the dancefloor! It starts all chunky and bouncy until the Rocket explodes in the first section of tough drums and rough basslines and a massive build up towards the breakdown. The main melody appears, and you know that we are dealing with one of the best and biggest Trance riffs of 2014. The next part goes crazy with distorted synthy lead that sounds lik a rocket is flying towards it's target. Rough and tough tribal drums lead us on the second main breakdown. It starts really calm, but very soon the kick and the massive euphoric synthy lead comes in for the hands in the air climax. Short breakdown and then the track builds towards the last playful booming, vavooming and cracking drop that splashes energetic vibes all over the place! It actually needs a cool vocal sample screaming something like: Look up in the sky the Rocket is coming to YOU!  #PureGold Love IT
