<Deep House> It goes without saying that Vinny Da Vinci is one of South Africa’s true DJ legends. If you fancy yourself even partly knowledgeable on the house scene over the past 15 years in this country you’ll have heard the name if not witnessed one of his DJ sets. Cited as a major influence […]
<Commercial Dance> When you’ve remixed the likes of Lady Gaga and Britney Spears I guess you’ve earned the kudos to pump out albums as often as Ryan Raddon (Kaskade) does.

We all felt it was a bit lame and dated with nothing new to offer other than the same old clichéd trance chords and stabs. Not surprisingly though they have dedicated a full remix album to it to […]
