THE REVIEW
Released at the end of last year, this beautiful piece by Martin Garrix and Jay Hardway was one of the biggest house music hits of 2014 (even reaching sixth place on the charts in Belgium, but of course, the two authors are of Dutch nationality).
Musically, it immediately appears remarkable and often haunting given the powerful bass lines that alternate with real volume surges, almost as if to live up to the song's title, wizard, meaning magician, and the magic in this track is truly abundant. It starts with a powerful and high-volume opening (usually these tracks have a more contained opening), leading to a captivating explosion (but often the volume drops, almost as if to highlight the remarkable bass) in just under four minutes of genuine house explosion, where the classic 4/4 meter tends not to repeat in a stubborn and compulsive manner, but rather enriches with never banal or predictable insights.
57 million views on YouTube show how fans of the genre immediately appreciated this work of the two Dutch DJs (and the video is also noteworthy, a true anthem to the joy of dance), and it's no coincidence that the recent work of eighteen-year-old Garrix, "Gold Skies EP," is already doing extremely well.
