Broken Arrows by Avicii with Zac Brown | Music Monday Pick
Avicii made my Music Monday pick earlier this month. He’s back again with an uptempo mainstream dance track called “Broken Arrows” with vocal assistance by Zac Brown. This will be released officially to radio tomorrow but makes it as my Music Monday pick for 9/28/15.
Here’s a little secret about me: I’m a closet Zac Brown fan! I know his tracks don’t all make the best dance floor fillers but the guy can write a good song! Team him up with one of my favorite producers, Avicii, and you get Broken Arrows. I think it may be a bit too progressive of a track for Top 40 radio but I think with some decent remixes (that will be sure to come it), this could be one to surprise you. So far, this and Pure Grinding are my favorite tracks released from his latest album.
Music Monday Pick 9/3/15 | Pure Grinding by Avicii
This has been quite the start to the Fall season with a ton of potential dance floor fillers being released. Pure Grinding by Avicii makes it as my Music Monday pick for 9/3/15. It officially got released to radio a few weeks ago but still hasn’t caught on with the mainstream crowd…yet!
I’ve been a huge Avicii supporter ever since he put out Levels. One of the things I’ve loved about him is that he constantly is changing up his sound; not just album to album but song to song. This one is down in the 104 BPM range (a stark contrast from his 130 range club bangers that he is known for). He takes some of the chorus lyrics from “100% Pure Love” by Crystal Waters but that’s the only homage paid to that legendary track. This will be one of those underground songs that I will play at my shows but for it to be successful, it has to be placed perfectly at the right time of the night. Give it a listen! You think it has what it takes to climb on the Top 40 charts?
