Thread Voxel charges dancefloors and emotions with “Electric Hold On”

Thread Voxel’s new single, “Electric Hold On,” is filled with irresistible emotions. With this jolting release, the artist returns to the late 2000s and early 2010s, when dance music was felt. For Thread Voxel, it’s about capturing that high. From that first shimmering synth swell at the start of ‘Electric Hold On,” this is music stipulating bringing back the emotional euphoria that was once the staple of club culture. The song is a trip, heart-racing sprint, and arms-wide catharsis. Picture dim-lit warehouses, hands in the air, sweat on the walls. That kind of energy.

Built atop a base of big emotional builds and build-ups with super-sized adrenalizing drops, Thread Voxel walks that fine line between the sentimental and the spectacular to perfection. The builds are patient, deliberate, and downright breathless. Then they’re followed by the drops driving, pulsing, relentless to which you have to submit to the rhythm. It’s a memory jogger with a modern engine. And what’s most impressive is how “Electric Hold On” is an unabashedly retro-worshipping track, but it’s the furthest thing from a gimmick. There’s a polish to this here, a glossy, 2025-ready sound design that allows this track to feel new while keeping it firmly rooted in the now.

The production sparkles with meticulousness but never sounds over digitized. Thread Voxel is hitting that sweet spot between old and new, combining the emotional promise of old-school EDM with the fearless swagger of today’s musical panorama. At a time when much of the world is falling in love with the minimalist mood board, “Electric Hold On” dares to be big, loud, and heart-filled, and it works. Whether you’re a long-time fan of that golden dance era or a recent listener new to discovering its magic, “Electric Hold On” is a statement.

Cheryl Craigie reimagines “What’s Going On” through a classic soul lens

Some songs belong to an era, and others keep talking to every generation. Cheryl Craigie’s cover of “What’s Going On“ is a prime example of the latter, imbuing a classic soul sensibility into a song whose themes of compassion, understanding, unity, and concern for others are as relevant today as ever.

Cheryl Craigie is an independent singer, songwriter, and musician, and she has a strong artistic purpose with this release. She does Marvin Gaye’s beloved original justice while letting the timeless message sing in her own voice. Craigie’s approach is to speak to the need for kindness and human connection.

“What’s Going On“ is rooted in a timeless identity that is soulful and classic in style, and emotionally it’s about reflection and empathy. This approach relies on the vocal performance, which injects a unique element that helps magnify the song’s bigger message. The production does not detract from the themes that make the song so long-lasting, but rather supports the release by reinforcing its classic character.

What’s particularly interesting about Cheryl Craigie’s release is the balance she strikes between respecting the source material and asserting her own artistic presence. She knows the power of a song already part of music history and uses her interpretation to reconnect listeners with its core ideas. For Craigie, “What’s Going On” is a manifestation of an artist in love with music, with emotional and social weight, and of using her voice to carry the ageless soul message forward.

With “Who Am I Now” Intaluks explores identity, healing, and renewal

“Who Am I Now” is the Intaluks’ method of shifting the atmospheric emotion, an introspective melodic trance on loss, identity, healing, and the hard work of rebuilding when life takes an unexpected turn. The musical direction is a slow emotional journey, starting in darkness and gradually opening to hope and renewal.

This production frames that journey with expressive male vocals, emotional piano, and trance textures. “Who Am I Now” leaves its mark in the feel department through progression and atmosphere, not with a dramatic festival-type drop. The arrangement gives the song a reflective feel but still maintains the forward momentum of melodic trance.

The male delivery lends a human presence to the themes of uncertainty and self-reconstruction in the song’s vocals. The track tells of an inner journey, accompanied by the piano, the cinematic production, and the experience of confronting a changed reality, asking yourself who you are now, and slowly finding the strength to move forward.

Rather than relying on spectacle, Intaluks focuses on emotional development, letting the song’s mood build organically rather than through a traditional climax. The result is a trance piece so cinematic it feels as much about reflection as it does about forward motion, connecting electronic atmosphere with a highly personal theme. In “Who Am I Now,” Intaluks offers a release defined by transition rather than closure. The sound is its greatest triumph, reflecting that journey and making darkness the beginning of a brighter artistic path.
