In case you missed hard-hitting, yet still unbelievably melodic Psytrance, this one might just be for you.

Recently, a track caught our eyes — and our ears. We came across a tune that is as much of a belter as it is a little caress to the soul. We’re talking about Israeli DJ and producer Reality Test‘s take on HYBIT and duo Gproject‘s collaboration We Are One‘.

‘We Are One’

The original track from which Reality Test’s version stems is the result of the follow-up conjoint work of HYBIT (a MR.BLACK alias) and Gproject, which succeeded their 2021 single ‘The Hook‘. Rather than ordinary collaborations, the hits coming from this partnership have literal years of experience to back their endeavours.

On one side we have MR.BLACK. He’s a pioneer of the hybrid movement in Dance music, one that combines different subgenres to create new, exciting sounds. Two years ago, he launched a new imprint and alias titled HYBIT. The idea brings a hybrid of Psytrance and Big Room to the table. Both aliases, HYBIT and MR.BLACK, work together to complement and challenge each other.

On the other side of the spectrum, enter Gproject. They are a duo consisting of Liron and Roy Gindi, a married couple who have learnt to translate their feelings into music. They believe it is a way to capture the special moments in life. Gproject combines the underground with the mainstream, bringing yet another example of hybrid music to the table.

Breaking star Reality Test has had a busy schedule lately. From signing records on Vini Vici‘s Alteza Records to touring the world delighting crowds with her style, she’s one of the most exciting names to lead the Psytrance scene in Israel, a country known worldwide for the quality and craft of said genre of EDM.

The Remix

True to the original, the remix kicks off with a healthy dose of Classic Trance melody and progression, before building the tension that will ultimately resolve on a strong, hard-hitting drop, comprised of the iconic kick and galloping bass combo. Dance the night away while you enjoy the progressive addition of elements to the base rhythm.

Back to the basics, the break that soothes the hearts of many brings that old-school Trance vibe back, making clever use of pads, arpeggios, and even textures that remind us of the ’95 sound of acts like Ayla and the OG DJ Tiësto. Following that same line, the drop that’s about to come doesn’t forget about the chord progression, adapting the analogue bass to a melodic pattern. There’s something about blending the power of a Psytrance beat and melody that makes Reality Test’s mix really stand out.

Teamworx and Yam Refaeli Join Forces on Heartfelt Single ‘Until We’re Falling Down’

Teamworx Yam Refaeli 1024x576 1

In a remarkable fusion of creativity and technology, a collaborative initiative has emerged, bringing together five individuals from diverse artistic backgrounds to create a poignant musical experience. The team includes the dynamic DJ duo and producers, Teamworx (Ben Azoulay and Saar Lagziel), the renowned singer/songwriter Yam Rafaeli (X-Factor Israel finalist), and the visionary project leaders, Tamir Yeshayahu and Idan Shakorka.

Their journey took a unique and exciting turn as they delved into the creation of a song that transcends conventional boundaries. Leveraging the power of AI video technology, they artfully reconstructed the events of a tragic massacre, weaving together a narrative that seeks to leave a lasting impact.

The accompanying video is not for the faint-hearted, as the combination of evocative visuals and a compelling storyline ensures that no eye remains dry. The creators acknowledge that not everyone may be able to watch the entire clip due to its emotional intensity.

The genesis of the song lies in heartfelt conversations with survivors and extensive research across various networks. The lyrics encapsulate a range of emotions, from profound sadness and anger to a resilient hope that authentically reflects the human experience in the face of tragedy.

Beyond being a mere composition, the song holds a profound purpose—to inspire people to sing, dance, and engage with the accompanying video. The vision is to spread this musical tribute to dance floors across the globe, fostering awareness and creating a lasting memorial for friends lost on that fateful day.

At the heart of the song’s narrative are the stark events of October 7 at the Nova Festival. The lyrics vividly address a horrific massacre where over 300 attendees, seeking nothing but the joy of dancing peacefully, lost their lives at the hands of Hamas, a designated terrorist organization.

Yam Rafaeli’s impactful vocal delivery, combined with Teamworx’s masterful production, creates a connection that transcends the auditory experience. For those seeking a deeper connection, a compelling 3-minute video clip accompanies the audio, providing a visceral and emotional visual experience.

As the creators aim for the song to find its place in the playlists of renowned DJs and resonate across global dance floors, “Dance until we fall” stands as a powerful artistic endeavor—a tribute, a call to action, and a poignant reminder of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.

I can’t really begin this article without commending Fred again.. for his insane production and mixing skills. Ok that feels better… Fred Again.. brings out an unique blend of Baby Keem’s ‘South Africa’ and ‘Bullies’ to craft ‘leavemealone’. The Atlantic Records track is a nasty electro journey with Jungle influences and incredible melodies. The result is 3:43 minutes of pure goosebumps.

The song introduces a blend of Baby Keem’s original tracks in a masterful positioning, adding reverbs and stuttering that makes transitions seamless. The build up is as emotional as it is sick in the best way possible. It’s so good you just want to cry on the dancefloor as you keep dancing and your tears turn into joy. The hip hop elements fuse with the Electro and UK style in a very dynamic composition. Fred again.. really outdid himself with this one. The repitches and stutters are so well presented it is truly a Grammy-worthy situation.

The American Rapper is known for his role on the Black Panther soundtracks, as well as credit contributions for Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar. His free flowing style with heavy trap and bass influences made him the right candidate for the UK producer Fred again.. to ascertain his prowess and construct this masterpiece of a track.

Fred again.. and again?

The UK producer and DJ just gets better and better. He worked with Skrillex and Four Tet for ‘Rumble’. Besides, he produced happiness anthems like ‘Delilah (pull me out of this)’ Fred again.. is a force in this era. Alone this year, He managed to book an eight-night residency at the Shrine in LA. And, gave us three nights at Forrest Hills Stadium. Moreover, he is now a nominatee for Best Dance/Electronic Album at this year’s Grammy Awards for Actual Life 3 (January 1- September 9 2022). His ability to develop story like songs and albums that feel like intimate journal entries is such a beautiful ability.

Nevertheless, we present you ‘leavemealone’:
