Soulcast 'Someone Like Me'
From Italy comes this soulfully appealing
number that glides along sucking you in to its near-hypnotic sample bassline-driven rhythm and snaking synthlines.
Taking percussion from the Doobie Brothers (yes twice in one week!) this smacks of instant recognition, and so
automatically gives it a head start over the competition. No samples, just loads of inspired by reference
points that make this hauntingly beautiful instrumental number so damn irresistible. Then just when you though it
couldnt get any better theyve added a sexy female vocal to totally blow it out the water. Lyrically not the most
profound of messages but come Monday morning it'll still be ringing in your head after the weekend's manoeuvres, and
that ain't no bad thing. (LD) 5/5
DJ MAG
HOUSE
Soulcast 'Someone Like Me/One Off'
Stand by for
the latest stab at the club crossover market. Your guess at who's behind
Soulcast is as good as ours but suffice to say that 'Someone Like Me' has a
little something of current Axwell about it, big melodic chords leading the way
with keys, piano and a funky guitar lick to the fore, and going by the
production this is no rookie attempt. Where it does fall off a little, as is
often the case, is with the vocals. True, there aren't a lot to form much of an
opinion but what's there sounds too pop for proper club tastes and that's
probably where the instrumental comes in.

...
http://www.ssradiouk.com/index.php?id=1154
With
that Electro Sound being already big at the moment, this is doing the
business on the dance floors ...for sure!! ... With a fresh sexy almost Hed
Kandi / Tokyo Disco type of sound - the crowd reaction for this tune is
flawless - works really well, almost every time...
I was really looking
forward to the Vocal and Dub Vocal of this tune, so
will definitely be
getting more plays from me - thats for sure ....
Nice one mate - Keep up the
good work.

Stuart
Millar
Years ago few things excited DJs more than an elusive white label
arriving
on your doorstep with absolutely no promotional material to
accompany it and
no print on the vinyl to indicate anything about the track
whatsoever. The
reason being that with these tracks you have to take
the plunge and play
them totally on gut instinct with no notion of whether it
is a marketing
ploy from a major label or not. Nowadays I get sent a
lot of links
annonymously through the trusty email and in this digital age
there is a
danger of such records losing their magic as you don't have a
tangible piece
of plastic which can tear a club apart. Happily I can
report that the
crowds couldn't care less about the medium used and, after a
brief denial
perio when I first started using CDs, nor can I. Reactions
are most
important, and 'Everybody Dance' certainly generates one. A
guitar based
riff and an at-times Swedish, electro style bassline line drives
the track
along beautifully, and with a vocal mix I this this could be really
big.
