Hi Guys & Dolls... Welcome to our last issue of the year and it certainly has been a strange one. It’s interesting to note how there have been universal shifts which a lot of us have felt. Our seasonal cover and theme throughout this magazine highlights the depths of our souls in the deep red also showing the glimmers of hope in the shining lights and stars. This month Mary and Tamara were thrilled to bump into artist Onuka after her tour. We are also delighted to be newly affiliated with South East Studios and One Click Mastering. Our sponsorship with Urban Pulse’s Walshy Fire event is reaching it’s climax on the day of this release, I would like to introduce Summer as our new Brand Ambassador in Mauritius who is representing us for this event too. We have been interviewed by Peecho this month as well. As the festive occasions approach, we wish that you share it with loved ones, enjoying all the smiles and good times to be had. In this issue, Sarah’s Thoughts turn to the year’s highlights in music including Fifth Harmony, Taylor Swift and the One Direction boys. Dancing to the beat of his heart, my soul is captivated. I share a some lyrics inspired by love. Steve reviews the year and also tells of his journey through difficult times, to then be enlightened by Coldplay’s ‘Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall”. I could feel the beat as part of my body, oozing all the positive vibes from every single part of my skin. On screen we take a look at some music in advertising as well as the ‘Y’ campaign which aims to inspire creative minds to follow their dreams. We nominate our songs of the year ready to take to the online polls where you’ll decide the winner, keep an eye on our socials in early December and vote for your favourite. We've got your festival guide, radio listings and music from Sarah Darling, Borderless, Ayeja, Gai Barone and Daya.

BEST OF MUSIC IN 2017 We made it through 2017! Thinking back, it went too fast, but we got some pretty great songs along the way. Here is a list of music I believe makes this year legendary. One Direction Members I find it quite amazing we got new music from every single member of One Direction, including Zayn Malik! And they are ALL successful! Name another boy band that can do that… I’ll wait. Harry Styles “Sign of the Times”, Niall Horan “Slow Hands”, Liam Payne “Strip that Down”, Louis Tomlinson feat. Bebe Rexha, Digital Farm Animals “Back to You” & Zayn feat. Sia “Dusk till Dawn.” Camila Cabello I wrote about her in an earlier issue of Audiation, and man I cannot stop obsessing over her! She is TOPPING the charts (something Fifth Harmony hasn’t done with singles), and she still hasn’t released a debut album yet. I cannot imagine the amount of pressure she is probably feeling considering the amount of success she’s had so far, but I know it is going to be AMAZING. Can’t wait for 2018! Fifth Harmony Their new sound and look! With Camila, they seemed like a band whose demographic were teeny-boppers who wear Ugg boots and leggings. Without Camila, they are sexy, daring, rebellious and relevant. I love this version Fifth Harmony, point blank and the period. Taylor Swift Honestly, her release of “Look What You Made Me Do” made me think her new album Reputation was going to be edgy, punk and electric, which is semi-typical for her to change genres in a new album. However, in my opinion it hasn’t lived up to that REPUTATION for me. Although very well written and produced, with songs like “New Year’s Day ” and “Call It What You Want,” it sounds like she is just confused. But somehow, it works. Cardi B I don’t want to say she is the new Nicki Minaj, but she definitely took her spotlight. “Bodak Yellow ” is crazy popular, and she’s featured in songs like “No Limit” and “MotorSport.” 12

Sam Hunt If you are a country music fan, you probably hear “Body Like a Backroad” in your sleep. It was played EVERY WHERE. Even on pop radio here in Chicago! Everyone loves a catchy tune. Kendrick Lamar Be humble. Sit down. Kendrick is one of those rappers that write inspirational messages in their songs, and promote good feelings. and My friend Brandon said “Man I wish my left stroke went viral,” So thanks Kendrick for the new goals for Brandon, thank you. If you haven’t yet, listen to his song “ Love,” I have it on as we speak. Ed Sheeran This man just knows music. And the fact he doesn’t think he’s talented? Stop it Sheeran, you are. There’s only one more basic mathematical symbol to title his next album, so let’s hope it won’t be the last. And let’s hope there will be another one! Miley Cyrus She is back to her southern-roots personality. I respect her for admitting she was going through a wild phase, and everyone changes, as mentioned in her song “Younger Now.” Imagine Dragons They are important, they inspire, and they want everyone to love each other. I dare you to listen to their new album "Evolve" without dancing. You won’t. Demi Lovato Not only did we get a new album, "Tell Me You Love Me ", but we also got a new documentary showcasing the truth in her past. It was real, raw, uncensored, and inspiring, After I watched it, I felt refreshed with life. It was such a strange feeling. Love this woman. BTS I don’t know much about them, but they HAD to be included in this article. If you saw their performance at the American Music Awards, you saw how much the girls in the audience were imploding. Heck, Ansel Elgort was even fangirling over them.

MY TOP 10 SINGLES OF 2017 1. Post Malone feat. 21 Savage “Rockstar” 2. Dua Lipa “New Rules” 3. Charlie Puth “Attention” 4. CNCO feat. Little Mix “Reggaeton Lento (Remix)” 5. Imagine Dragons “Thunder” 6. Camila Cabello feat Young Thug “Havana” 7. Maroon 5 “Lips on You” 8. Kane Brown “What Ifs” 9. G Eazy feat. ASAP Rocky and Cardi B “No Limit” 10. Miley Cyrus “Younger Now”

Cheers 2017. Thank you for being a year of music with positive and uniting messages.

Sarah's Thoughts

Lost Dancing to the beat of his heart, my soul is captivated Like a moth to a flame Drawn into his gaze He pulls me in And I'm lost Scared to breathe A fragile moment Just him and me I ache Lost in him Feeling the low vibrations from his lips, I surrender The wonder that is his mind, another world, another time, another... 16

I could not miss that one! The last issue for 2017. Time flies so rapidly that opportunities to sit down and reflect over the past events are scarce. 2017 has been a tiring and at some points I felt completely drained. My spiritual journey and learning helped me through these tough times. According to a friend of mine there has been lot of energy shifts which have impacted on many, but hopefully 2018 will yield better days. Besides, through meditation I regained peace and the will to move ahead, it did not suffice. The need to voice out (almost yelling) my feelings eased the process. I remember one moment I could not bear this pressure no more. I could not describe how I was feeling, forcibly getting confused and distraught. There is that Coldplay's song â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Every Teardrop Is A Waterfallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that boosted my inner vibes, chased away the negativity and settled positivity to its maximum. I could feel the beat as part of my body, oozing all the positive vibes from every single part of my skin. I was bathing in light and no more battling with those dark thoughts. They just vanished! I was like dancing in the car with volume pumped up to the maximum. It was pure bliss! Finally, the festive seasons are near and for sure I know that the Christmas mood with brighten our days. The carols, the decoration and festive smiles with warm-hearted hugs will chase away those dark memories. For those still struggling, hold on and fight for your life as better days are ahead. Never back down on trials; keep faith. I wish you all the best for the coming year, love to all!

MY SONG OF THE YEAR Dua Lipa - Voodoo “I wake up with it on my mind every morning. Plus it’s quite an unknown track for her and I don’t follow sheep.” Rokuro

Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You “It is catchy, makes people moving like a bit of dancing without actually willing to do so.” Mary "It is the song that I, and many others, instantly took a liking too. It is fun, memorable and timeless. It unites the world. On my travels, this was the soundtrack regardless of language barriers and new meetings, we all were brought together with this one song. " Ruby

Pentatonix ft Jennifer Hudson - How Great Thou Art "It’s my favourite hymnal. I feel like through the year, rough and good times, at some point, we all needed to look up and remember that someone up there loves you and is there for you always." David

Camila Cabello - Havana “It is DIFFERENT. It is fun, Latin and connected to her culture. Music industry people told her that the song wasn't going to succeed on radio and the charts, and that people were not going to understand and look how much she is proving them wrong. She was the underdog taking a big risk leaving Fifth Harmony and it PAID OFF! Havana is top of the charts! I think it is a great beginning for Cabello's solo career, and makes everyone excited to hear more.” Sarah

4th Project - Taking Me Over “It is a gem.” Andy 22

www.AudationMagazine.com

Luis Fonsi ft Daddy Yankee - Despacito “It is the top song I have heard in so many places that it seemed that people really enjoyed it, as original or remix by Justin Bieber. It sounds as a virus affecting as much people as it can at the disco, in a public transport, as a ringtone, in a cafe, at the beach, in a taxi... Personally, I'm not a fan of this song but it happens that I hear it from everywhere. Being a big boss I would definitely add it to the chart because of it’s popularity.” Tamara “It brings the right ambience to every mood” Ashna

Jain - Makeba “She is French singing in English about Mama Africa and that somehow reminding us that music has no boundaries. Plus the style is nicely mixed. This world needs this kind of initiative to discover, learn, acquire and blend music style where none other factors are able to bring this world together.” Steve

Camelphat - Cola “This track captivated the whole of the underground. S track that caressed the underground and appealed to people of a more comercial nature. I saw this track dropped at events to see the whole party sing in unison. Myself and my daughter alike would be caught singing the words to this. By far the tune of 2017.” Cessle

Post Malone - Fall Apart “It describes what it's like to love someone and they continue to hurt you and cause you to fall apart.” Jessie

James Hype ft Kelli-Leigh - More Than Friends “It brings a happy feel to my day each time. The track was my summer closing song. It popped up everywhere: festivals, the gym and on the Spotify playlist.” Malachi

ADVERT: I Saw It First, AW17 MUSIC: Jorja Smith X Preditah - On My Mind A sexy showcase of the fashion collection. The track compliments this with a sweet and light style. The full song is lovely and bumpy with a feel good vibe set, the video brings out the love for UKG with an urban look..

ADVERT: I Saw It First, Cindy Kimberlyl MUSIC: Atlas Knox - Do It Seductive and glam looks for the festive seasons. The song instantly grabs you with that daring vocal. The full song holds a sunshine flavour whilst the vocal section remains addictive. 27

Mabel ft Kojo Funds - Finders Keepers

Fascinating vocals and a hot EDM drop.

A feelgood, sensual atmosphere.

Selena Gomez & Marshmello Wolves

Reminiscent of Eminem, but with his own style on this emotive piece. The counterbalance of the rap and smoother sections is really nice.

NF - Let You Down

CHARTED

Jason Derulo & French Montana - Tip Toe

A cheeky and playful little number. 30

A lot of reworks around this year, but this has an interesting flavour to it.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Larger Than Lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by Nikhil Prakash is a strong and bold track. The atmospheric break also presents a searching vocal dropping into a dance number. An artist who never disappoints and continues to push the envelope is Nikhil Prakash. Back on InfraProgressive with his latest and greatest track 'Larger Than Life'. Nikhil once again serves up another lush progressive trance cut in his much loved signature sound.

‘Winter Wonderland’ is the new seasonal album from Sarah Darling. This is a beautiful compilation with well-known festive songs and is the perfect pairing for the upcoming celebrations. Sarah Darling’s voice is stunning. The compositions hold a classic warmth and delight. Each exceptional rendition imparts a little bit of magic to our hearts. The Nashville based singer-songwriter, Sarah Darling, already heralded as one of country music’s breakout performers and an elite vocalist in the US, has her sights set on the UK. After studio three albums Sarah will release her Christmas album ‘Winter Wonderland’ November 17 2017.

‘Ricochet’ by Tantrum Desire ft Laura Bayston is intense. The intro is especially intriguing with a slow progression, then it drops into the lively main DnB section. Love the variations of the vocals. Ricochet features the vocals of Laura Bayston, who last linked with Tantrum Desire on the big-room thunderclap of their track Underground. Once again, she delivers a soaring, emotive performance that draws us into the music over triphoppy atmospheric vibes and a hands-inthe-air chord sequence. And then, underpinning it all, is a subtle arpeggio, which guides us through the harmonic changes and pulls us upwards until we’re dropped into a sea of bass. www.soundcloud.com/ techniquerecordings

A lively trancer!

Tribal flavour.

‘One’ by BORDERLESS is the one album you need with a range of different and thought-provoking moods. Each delicately crafted element tells a story. The album features the enchantment of ’Cloud Surfing’, vibrance of ‘Winter’, intensity of ‘Where Nobody Knows Us’, intrigue of ‘Two Worlds’ and enlightenment of ‘Uncertain Colours’. There is an amazing juxtaposition in a the emotions throughout, really interesting to listen to. If we were to get the most stubborn of haters to join the side of dance music, there’s only one album that springs to mind. The brainchild of rising star BORDERLESS, ‘One’ is brimming with fifteen songs that defy genres for breakfast and radiates vibes so insanely addictive none can say no. An enchanting mixture of progressive, ambient and all-around sonic beauty, ‘One’ is the next step in dance music evolution. www.danielwanrooy.com 35

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Rocket Punchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by Jordan Suckley holds is a high octane energy shot! Dark chords & deep bass! www.damaged-records.com

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We Can Have It Allâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by Ayeja ft Karina Nistal is a wonderfully vibrant and soulful song. The voice is lovely and there is the element of added surprise in the latino break section. Austin Leeds presents a deeper, chilled remix whilst Jaytor takes it down a level with a bass edit. Ayeja represent something truly refreshing in music. With a combination of disco house and tech house accompanied by smooth yet infectious vocals, these musicians have productions that make dance floors swoon. www.symphonicdistribution.com

‘Lumina’ by Trilucid is a really nice piece to lose yourself to with deep moments and pulsing beats. For the final release of 2017 label, A&R Phil Martyn is delighted to welcome back Trilucid (aka Andy MacDougall and Hilton Caswell), with their track Lumina, a brilliant example of progressive house, and a testament to why Trilucid is in such high demand currently. Trilucid’s unique take on progressive house has seen them gain broad DJ support and chart success across a stream of huge progressive labels, and continue their residency at The Gallery at Ministry of Sound in London. We think this is a fitting way to end the year and fits perfectly with the Perfecto Black sound. www.soundcloud.com/perfecto-records-fluoro 39

INSANE HOUSE DESCRIBES THE ‘PROJECTION EP’ TO BE ENERGETIC WITH EXPLOSIVE WRAPAROUND PERCUSSION. A STEADY FOUNDATION IS LAID WITH THE RHYTHMIC BEATS, WHILST THE ATMOSPHERE AND SUBTLE DEVELOPMENTS IN EACH TRACK AMPLIFIES THE DARK ATTRACTION. WWW.AWJRECORDINGS.COM

www.AudationMagazine.com

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Rattlesnakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by Harry Square vs. Sols & Sean Truby is a killer dance track. The main tune remains a constant as the energy levels grow and excite. Rounding out a stellar year, both Harry Square and Solis & Sean Truby join forces for this truly epic outing on Interstate Recordings. The culmination of their efforts is as you'd expect, massive in every way, as they deliver 'Rattlesnake'. Fusing that much loved tech sound from Harry Square, with those signature, epic melodies we've come to expect from Solis & Sean Truby, 'Rattlesnake' will deliver the fire to any club environment. On the flip, rising stars Burak & Emre inject their much loved big room sound into the track and serve up a killer alternative to complete the package. www.infrasonicrecordings.com 41

‘Shiny’ by Gai Barone is a really cool creation. The beats have retro connotations with a power 80s / funky sound. The drop introduces melodic movements and a distorted vocal. You’d have to have been living under a rock for the last 2 years to be unaware of the shockwaves which Gai Barone has sent through the ranks of the progressive scene, his unique sound has the support of everybody from Sasha to Solarstone, from Hernan Cattaneo to Aly & Fila. ‘Shiny’ is gleaned from the track-list of Pure Trance Vol. 6 and it is the perfect example of why Gai is the man on everybody’s lips when it comes to progressive trance, progressive house, call it what you will. The track delivers it’s message via jagged synth lines, emotive chord changes and a spattering of crystalline arpeggiators. The break is perfect late night club material, cavernous reverbs and twisted all-enveloping filters erupt into a glorious payoff. This is the Italian progressive master at his finest. www.puretrance.com
