With a global merger of sounds ranging from the Belgian duo Wolfpack’s boisterous big room, to the German influx of Jaxx & Vega’s racing house and R3spawn’s finessed electro, ‘Kalinka’ impressively draws together a stylistic production that will dominate livesets and playlists for the coming months. Launching off with a double-time beat that acts as the foundation for layers of rattling, punchy low-ends and shooting synths, a teaser of a melody comes in before the breakdown enlists an ever-increasing, speeding loop of horns project forth to make audiences stand to attention. Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike refine the track further, utilising their extensive knowledge of what works on the dancefloor to put the finishing gloss on this banger.
Reggae-inspired spits of vocal that countdown before an explosive eruption of big-room weaves between the punchy THEA and the racing – que guitar string riffs that add an element of surprise, accelerating before morphing into a leading key-driven melody that just belongs on a festival mainstage, ‘Kalinka’ morphs and evolves to reach a menacing, hardstyle conclusion that will leave appetites satisfied and wanting more.
Make sure you get your hands on the powerhouse of ‘Kalinka’, out now via Smash The House!
