Re: Balearica Island - The return

It took me less than a minute to find an advert-free video ;)

Anyway, i liked it even though i'm not into trance, so it must be pretty good ;)

Thanks guys :D

I have no idea, I've only heard 1 of the other songs so far. :p

Oh. Maybe I should have searched for it then. I just found it on Armada's Facebook page. I prefer official videos tho, if Armada finds that one, they might force YouTube to remove it, which would cause a bit of problems in NSC. But thanks. :)

Re: Balearica Island - The return

Hahaha, the Armada ad music xD
Maybe the subliminal promotion for this that's been at the beginning of almost every Balearican entry until now will help this entry :p
It's pretty good, quite catchy... although, if I'm honest, I get tired pretty quickly of the same sorta trance we get with Armada music songs :oops: That's probably just me though xD And it's good that you stick to your defined style :mrgreen:
Good luck!

Oh, and if record labels do delete the videos entered, then it's not a problem for the host/mods to edit the video link, as long as our attention is drawn to it :D

Re: Balearica Island - In memory of the Loveparade

And Ørjan did better than expected. :D

Not much difference for the next entry when it comes to genres, still trance. But this is a special track, made by 3 of the giants in the trance scene. Armin van Buuren [NL], Paul Oakenfold [UK] and Paul van Dyk [DE] teamed up to make a trance anthem after the tragedy at the Loveparade in Duisburg earlier this year, where 21 people lost their lives. More info is in the YouTube description. RIP.

Re: Balearica Island - Hardstyle DNA - It's in your blood

Well, another semi final failure then. So the Balearica Island NSC committee have decided to go away from trance for a while. For NSC 62, it's back to the harder styles of electronic dance music.

First, here's the video:

DNA, or Hardstyle DNA which is the real name of the event, is the only pure hardstyle event in Norway, and even tho it's about 500 km from where I live, I've been there 3 times in the last 2 years. When I missed NSC 59, Hardstyle DNA was part of the reason, as it was the start of my vacation.

Da Tweekaz are the only Norwegian hardstyle producers to get signed on a major international label, first DJ's United, and recently Dirty Workz, where DNA is released. And unlike the 2 previous Norwegian entries from Balearica Island, who were both from the northern Da Tweekaz comes from the south of Norway.

Re: Balearica Island says hi to Scandinavia in NSC 63

Norwegian hardstyle did better than I had expected. :D

The next song is a bit different, it's house, made by the Russian duo Matisse & Sadko, and dedicated to Scandinavia. I think the "video" is just meant for promotion, but being Scandinavian, I just had to use it anyway, as it shows stuff that Scandinavia is famous for. Finland isn't really part of Scandinavia tho.

So here it is, Matisse & Sadko - Hi Scandinavia!

Re: Balearica Island - Withdrawing

Balearica Island won't be taking part in NSC 64. I was going to send Rihanna - S&M, and was waiting for the video to be released (which is happening tomorrow), but Cleoreantia beat me to it. And for personal reasons, I can't compete against that song...
