Wolfgang Gartner feat. Medina – Overdose (Extended Club Mix)

7097401

The latest release off Ultra Records is from none other than Wolfgang Gartner. Known for his complextro tracks and epic live sets, Wolfgang’s new track featuring Medina on vocals is just what we can expect from the ‘boss’ himself. “Overdose” is a bit more mellow than most Wolfgang electro house tracks, having some beautiful singing from Medina and lower energy drops. However, the song still includes some of those harder elements that we’ve become used to in all of his tracks, as well as some skeptical lyrics that reference overdosing (OD) on drugs. Regardless, we love this track and we suggest for you all to give it a listen and support this amazing artist by grabbing it on Beatport below!

Wolfgang Gartner’s “Anaconda” his newest release on Ultra Music is a synth masterpiece; from the dirty, screeching wails to the bouncy, euphoric chords, Gartner has made a track that keeps on giving in the melodic department (and no doubt, the great punchy drum track doesn’t leave the rhythm section lacking either).

butch-clancy-bass-song

After circulating in the game for the past few years and producing up and down every genre, Butch Clancy has finally found his niche with trap music. Butch has always been an elite producer but trap music was his calling. It was the perfect way for him to implement his beautiful melodies with ripening bass to all be overpowered by a booming 808. With his rising success and noted high energy live set, he kept this track a secret for him to only play out live. With too much positive reaction and constant fan demand, Butch couldnt keep this track to himself any longer.His rework of Wolfgang Gartner’s “Shrunken Heads” is unconventional and much of its swagger can be attested to Clancy’s willingness to be unique. Heavy bass, high pitched bleeps, and meticulousdrum linesall contribute to the tracks overall quality. The release date has yet to be disclosed but check back soon for the official date!
