‘Choose Me II’ (Dubstep)
A dubstep game changer. ‘Choose Me II’ takes an ethereal vocal and layers over echoes of filtered French disco and euphoric trance washes, and underpins them with the warmth of the first sun at an all night rave. The rhythm track is impeccably produced, with a change before the breakdown to techier bass, cut backs and switches, which make this both a pure simplistic delight on first listen, while simultaneously being intricate to the very last beat. The sound of a new dawn.

‘Choose Me I’ (Electro-House)
The first of the ‘Choose Me’ tracks, this takes the ethereal vocal and keyboard riff and expands them into a four to the floor electro stomper. The incredible thing is that while all the elements from ‘Choose Me II’ are there, they both retain their own identity, with this version of the track definitely taking the soundscape into peak time hands in the air territory. Again, the production is simpler to casual listener with instant hooks pulling you in, while the intricacies in the track are there for those who like to dig a little deeper. When the results are this strong, deeper forays into the full array of the bpm spectrum for Xilent and less of a request and more of a duty.
