DallasK (pronounced “dallas, -kay”) and I go way back. Okay, maybe I’ve never met the guy, but I’ve kept him on my radar for almost a decade now which is an eternity in the music industry–most everyone is big today and gone tomorrow. The first original track of his that I can remember downloading is “Jupiter” which released sometime in 2011. Since then, DallasK has been building a strong portfolio and steadily evolving his vibe. His early songs and remixes were very four-on-the-floor with some techno elements. He’s had some big collaborations with TiĆ«sto such as “Your Love” and “Show Me,” the latter I think is pretty solid. Unfortunately it seems that these spotlights haven’t landed him as big of a spot as he’d like as a premier electronic producer. Despite this, he’s still making excellent music.
“Looking for Your Love” is not only a great song, but a good example of the type of music he’s making these days. He’s decided to start doing his own vocals which move his music from concerty instrumentals to more like dance anthems. Unfortunately songs cross genre boundaries quite often and this song I’d probably classify as electronic/dance, but you can dance to anything, which is why I don’t like using it as a music genre. As a result, I’m going to tag this as “electronic” for the time being. That classification ends up serving as a catchall for songs in my database I can’t slot into another category, but whatever.
As a bit of a softer entry in the Arcane[Discord] portfolio, I have to fall back on calling this a dance anthem again. I think it would do well in any house party assuming there are people willing to hit the floor. The prominent bass line on 4/4 time will help even the most rhythm-lacking dance novice flail on time. All jokes aside, it’s a great song which can easily appeal to tons of different music lovers.
