Saturday Spotlight 010: R3HAB – I NEED R3HAB 204
Welcome back to Saturday Spotlight 010! This week we have a mix packed with lots of energy from R3hab in I NEED R3HAB 204.
We start off with the Jenaux remix of “Crash” by Usher, which has the usual catchy vocals of Usher, and a funky guitar to go with it. The drop is strong, with a nice beat to carry the music, and an intense bass and rhythm to assist the melody. After that we have the DBN remix to “Your Love“, which uses nice synth stabs the get the listeners attention, then immediately launches this crazy bass that keeps the groove from the previous some going. But then the drop goes hard into this deep bass, really getting the energy going. Then he plays “Back To You” from Ryan Blyth and Duane Harden. This song has some low and spoken vocals going along well with the beat. The drop has mostly bass and beat in it. So far R3hab‘s theme is songs with a nice strong bass and a noticeable beat.
A little later “La Luna” is played, which has these interesting Spanish vocals, along with a type of flute sound playing the melody of the song. Even though this song still has that feel of bass, it is an interesting turn for the mix. Then R3hab plays “Flamingo” by Oliver Heldens, which is no surprise that is has this sick bass feel to it. As the drop hits, these nice synths plays chords that sort of fly around the rest of the music which is a very nice touch to the song and the mix. Later he drops his remix “This Is What You Came For“, which is sped up a bit from the original. The drop has a nice choice of drums, and a switch off between the original vocal cuts and a higher version.
“I Want You” is second to last in the mix. This song is new from Tiesto and Mike Williams and features a lot of different sounds. The intro has these nice sounds vocals that are cut up melodically. The drop has this sturdy synth that jumps around the music. It is definitely an energetic song for those large crowds. R3hab and Calvin Harris remix “How Deep Is Your Love” to finish the mix. The chorus is nice, but the drop explodes and the energy flies. The bass hits hard, the beat is strong, and synths strike so well.
My favorite song of the mix is the R3hab remix of “This Is What You Came For“. I love the energy that comes from it and those vocal cuts are just so good. This definitely a great mix from R3hab. There is some new stuff in here that you should definitely check out. Check back for more Saturday Spotlight and listen to I NEED R3HAB 204 below!
