Retrospect is a retro-style melodic, progressive
track with a bouncy bassline and big summer melodies.
Martin Villeneuve (MV) turns in a peak time electro-progressive
stormer, showcasing the melodies of the original, with plenty of
extra grit. Kris B & Nosmo take a more laid back approach, with techy
beats and bass, highlighting the acoustic guitar parts, sure to

getting major attention from Tiesto, Armin, Oakie and all
