The Gift (Mark Knight Remix) - Mike Mago

Mark Knight delivers a powerful, energetic club remix of Mike Mago's 'The Gift'; a perfect present in time for the holidays.The track opens up with a hard-hitting, fast-paced chord progression and ear pounding drum loop that would inject a massive fire on any dance floor. The song has an almost trance-like flow to it, with relentless beats and epic builds combined with that quintessential vocal breakdown that makes this one of the breakout dance tunes of the year. As the vocal certainly declares, this song gives you the gift of the beat and so much more. Usually we can go into some depth about the differences between the rework and original unfortunately, we couldn't find a original sample to work from. If anyone has even a snippet we'd love to have a listen and happily update the review of this track. Shoot us a quick note here in the comments or at our email address lamp@solvethispuzl.com.The Toolroom label head really delivers on this track and has been doing so for more years than I care to count. This legendary producer has continuously evolved his sound and the direction of his music always seems to align with what's fresh in the house genre. His release of 'The Return of Wolfy' certainly set a precedent this year as far as things to come out of the studio and here's hoping that 2015 will be even bigger for Mark Knight.Mike Mago founded BMKLTSCH RCRDS many years back, building a reputation out of his home town in Utrecht, Netherlands. After years of successful releases the producer shifted his focus to his own career and began releasing a series of heavy hitting tracks in early 2012. In 2013, after getting a lot of recognition and a signature from Blood Music for his EP 'The Beat' the release was delayed and so to fill the gap he began working on a new tune. This new project would soon become 'The Show' and be his breakout tune of the year; getting picked up by Spinnin' Records and racking up reviews from some the industries biggest and best. A dominant purveyor of Dutch house music for several years and known by his peers to always have the pulse on the latest hot, club tunes. It's no surprise then that his choice of collaborators came in the for of Mark Knight as the two most certainly share an affinity for curation of the best house music there is to offer. His mix from August on THUMP demonstrates how truly diverse and current his track selections are:Enjoy,MR PUZL
