Out on December 20th via Armada, Ukrainian techno singer Korolova and UK group Eynka team forces on the massive trance-inspired tune, “Coming On Strong.”
Considered by many as an underground trance anthem, Signum and Scott Mac’s Armada-released 1999 original of “Coming On Strong” was a standard in dance music through the “90s and early 2000s.” Rising artists Korolova and Eynka reworked the track as a potent cinematic melodic techno classic twenty-25 years after it first came out.
The pair improve the original with their legendary, floating vocals, modern production methods, and a threatening, jagged center synth that twists, bulges, and darts wildly. It is already showing to be a head-turning dancefloor essential, picked up so far by Adam Bayer, Agents of Time, Miss Monique, Paradoks, Ilario Alicante & Enai.
Who are the artists? Korolova and Egynka
Ukrainian producer/DJ Korolova has become well-known over just three years as one of the main melodic techno performers to see. Her interesting DJ sets are in demand worldwide; this year alone, she will be playing over 100 shows over 50 countries. She ranked #60 in this year’s DJ Mag Top 100 DJs list and enjoys a whopping 170 million YouTube views and 70 million streams including the single “Be Strong” (32M streaming). If that’s not enough, she performed Tomorrowland’s much sought-after main stage in July, sold out her Captive Soul show—which included Eynka—at KOKO in London in October, and has shared the stage with David Guetta, Vintage Culture, Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, and many more.
London-based group Eynka produces rich, dramatic soundscapes spanning the domains of melodic techno and expressive electronica. Comprising brothers Chris and Dave Hall as well as lifetime buddy Joshua Field, they produce very moving and cinematic electronic music. Renowned for their intricately layered sound, they have recorded on Diynamic, Cercle, and Stress Records and toured legendary venues including Hï Ibiza and Ministry of Sound. Egynka’s music has had a big influence in the melodic techno movement with tunes backed by BBC Radio 1 and partnerships with CamelPhat and Anyma. They initially performed their new hybrid live presentation on the road this year at famous locations including Ibiza’s Ushuaïa (listen to the set here).
Out on December 20th on Armada, “Coming On Strong” is a late ’90s trance smash deftly translated for a modern techno audience.
