Gui Boratto

Discovering music and more specifically, discovering songs that you really like is a fantastic thing. The feeling I get from finding a song that makes me just sit back and stop whatever I am doing is one of my happiest. I was roaming the internet looking for something new and came across Gui Boratto's 'No Turning Back'. There was something different about the song that I couldn't figure out. Maybe it was the never-before-heard sounds that my ears had just experienced but I played it another three times and this song was now a favorite. It has compiled inside of it, a number of instruments and sounds ranging from guitars to synths and bells, to piano, or to the melodic chorus.

Gui Boratto is a producer from Brazil who reminds me of Deadmau5. Not in looks or anything like that, but in the way of when I first found out about the mau5. His sound is something that you can't compare to anyone else and that's what I first noticed about Gui Boratto. The tech-electronic producer started his career in 2005 and released 'Chromophobia' in 2007. His most recent is 'Take My Breath Away' which was released back in March. I also think his album covers would make great posters.

Tiesto released a 19-track bombshell last week. So you can only guess what I am about to put up here.

I saw Deadmau5 at Lovevolution and if you have never seen him live, I highly stuggest you do before dying. He played a lot of his new stuff from 'Lack of a Better Name' but I was a bit disappointed that he decided no to spin 'To Play Us Out'. I've heard rumors that he doesn't own the song or some other nonsense but I doubt it.

and finally there's a remix of Heartbreaker that doesn't suck balls.

Tiesto breaks away from his normal Trance-like sound and shows us a new Electro/Techno/Pop side that I've never heard before from him. Will it be a success or failure? Time will tell. I personally love the cd and would recommend going out to purchase it.

Here are my favorites
