As well as producing his own tracks, Calvin has been responsible for some big production on dance, pop and urban tracks for other artists over the past 10+ years. Randomly selected, we’re going to put two tracks against each other and what better way to start the first one than Kylie vs Dizzee? Vote for your favourite now!





For both songs, Calvin was involved in producing, mixing and writing them. Holiday reached #1 in 2009 and In My Arms reached #10 in 2008.

Holiday is infinitely better, I even prefer it over Bonkers (and at that all of Dizzie’s other dance releases)

In My Arms is good but Holiday will always go down well in a club laugh.gif

In My Arms.
Not Kylies, best single but is enjoyable.

Holiday is also a good song but not the best on offer from Dizzee Rascal.

In My Arms is a good bop but I much prefer ‘Holiday’. That drop at the end is everything!

I don't like Holiday as a song but the production is swell, particularly the final phase.

Kylie and Calvin worked together at the wrong time.
I think at a different time, both together, could have came up with something that could have been much bigger than In My Arms.

'Holiday' is rather poor.

Holiday is a bit too 80s for me. Obviously it's a classic, but I prefer modern music. I always liked In Your Arms too.
