BuzzJack Music Forum _ Dance _ Don Diablo - Future

Posted by: danG 9th February 2018, 03:37 PM

One of the biggest names in future house, Don Diablo releases his third studio album 'Future' today (his first since 2008, and his first two aren't even on Spotify so this may as well be his first lol), with vocal features from Nina Nesbitt, Calum Scott, Betty Who and less relevant people. It follows his 2017 compilation 'Past.Present.Future' and remix album 'Reconstructions'.

Quite enjoyed the singles so far particularly 'Don't Let Go' so I'll probably take a listen sometime this week.

Tracklist:
1. "Back to Us" (featuring Mike Waters) 3:00
2. "Everybody's Somebody" (featuring Bully Songs) 3:18
3. "Put It on for Me" (featuring Nina Nesbitt) 3:23
4. "Give Me Love" (featuring Calum Scott) 3:28
5. "Higher" (featuring Betty Who) 3:00
6. "Take Her Place" (featuring Arizona) 3:29
7. "Head Up" (featuring James Newman) 3:11
8. "Bright Skies (The Bit U Know)" (featuring Miles Graham) 3:37
9. "Found You" (featuring Bully Songs) 3:09
10. "Reflections" 4:33
11. "You Can't Change Me" 3:07
12. "Don't Let Go" (featuring Holly Winter) 3:12
13. "Killer" (featuring Dave Thomas Junior) 4:07
14. "People Say" (featuring Paije) 3:08
15. "Satellites" 3:30
16. "Echoes" 3:56

Yesss at this getting a thread, was thinking of making one, this album is so so great and really shows why Don is the king of Future house rn, all of the songs are like at least 6/10 although i kinda wish he went a bit harder/ a bit more experimental with some songs as it does get a little bit Same-y. So many highlights on this album, although Satellites is an immediate standout, would never have seen Don coming out with drum n bass ohmy.gif Definitely recommend listening to this if you liked the singles, just don’t expect it to be all hard Future house

Will check it out at some point but for me he has never been able to top My Window.

I've listened to it now so here's some thoughts.

'Give Me Love' is one of the best on the album, surprisingly Calum Scott is actually good for something!1
I appreciate him trying to do drum n' bass but the vocal in 'Satellites' is quite off-putting so I won't be going back to that one.
That Adamski cover is completely unnecessary and 'Echoes' is dull.
The album is too long and it does get very samey which doesn't work for an hour long album. I'd cut the following for a strong cohesive 10-track album.

8. "Bright Skies (The Bit U Know)" (featuring Miles Graham) 3:37
9. "Found You" (featuring Bully Songs) 3:09
10. "Reflections" 4:33
13. "Killer" (featuring Dave Thomas Junior) 4:07
15. "Satellites" 3:30
16. "Echoes" 3:56

Music videos for 'Everybody's Somebody' and 'Higher'




Surprised he's seemingly moving on already, unless 'Believe' is going to get added to 'Future'.

and here's Don Diablo in space

He's been filming a video today with Calum Scott for Give Me Love!

Urgh probably my least fave producer in dance. Can't stand his washing machine music.

I find his music a bit bland tbh. His remixes are some of the best out there but his own music is crap in comparison

Just heard 'Give Me Love' and I really love it. wub.gif Sounds like a hit too so I would very much welcome it becoming one. .

'Anthem (We Love House Music)' will be released tomorrow



sounds like another banger from him!!

New one titled 'No Good' released in collaboration with Zonderling today. And yes it's yet another Prodigy sample, still a banger tho.

'Heaven To Me' feat. Alex Clare


sounds decent.

New one is good but I can’t help but feel like Don is just releasing the same song over and over...
