Ahh, it’s such a sad feeling when a new and good song’s preview ends just as you’re getting into it. That’s exactly what happened with Will Sparks’ new track “The Viking,” which isn’t released until April 19th. Keeping his usual dutch-y style, Sparks adds a little more grungy bass to the drop, and a bit more melody in the breakdown. Yet in his own special way is able to keep his unique sound, and somehow create the best synths and use them in the best fashion. Check out the preview below and make sure to get the single when it comes out! Cheers!

Daft Punk – Random Access Memories – The Collaborators: Giorgio Moroder

Where does one begin when speaking about the influence that Giorgio Moroder has had on dance music? His innovative techniques lead him to do things that others have never even considered. He was one of the first to ever produce dance music with an analog synthesizer and thus began to build a reputation for his quality work. Soon his legendary reputation caught up to him as he became a highly touted producer in the 70′s, making hits for a number of stars including Donna Summer. In this video, the legend speaks about his accomplishments and gives his take on Daft Punk. Watch as Giorgio Moroder praises the legendary duo in anticipation of their upcoming album release – Random Access Memories.

The video preview above should do plenty to get your heart racing, although you’ll have to wait until April 8th to fully satisfy your Henrix cravings.
