This track is so massive.  I must admit, back when I was first hearing about Calvin Harris, I held my own reservations. But after actually hearing his catchy as shit production skills, it was inevitable.  I was hooked.  You might remember the Roisin Murphy track that went up here not too long ago. (pop-disco-fire)

Here’s what I’m talking about. A trip down epic string synth lane with Calvin Harris’ version of The Hours – “See the Light”. It starts with that whimsical toy synth then jumps into the harmonized staccato but THEN FINALLY….. the MAD WILD roto-esque big-room synth chorus drops bombs.  All held down by such a solid bassline that would make Randy Jackson bring back his jheri curl.

BONUSSSSS:
This track is so money.  Just wait ’til it breaks down into the piano buildup. Tommy Sparks by Yuksek, I am lost without you.
