Max Vangeli & AN21 - People of the Night

The long awaited album from Max Vangeli and AN21 has finally been released. Lots of mixed reviews coming out, but I think these guys deserve more credit. Its easy to attribute their exposure to the fact that AN21 is Steve Angello's brother, but that really detracts from the fact these guys make pretty good productions. I absolutely love Max & AN21's remix of Ellie Goulding's Starry Eyed and Prodigy's Smack My Bitch Up.

The album is chalked full of collaborations. On the title track, they join hands with Tiesto.

Congorock most famously was introduced to the clan with his remix of SHM's One. He collaborated with the duo for Lost:
 So when I first heard this track, I really didn't understand the title. Why bombs over capitals? Is this about war? I don't think so...anyway, the boys enlist the amazing vocals of Julie McKnight for this one. She was once married to Soul/R&B artist Brian McKnight, and has appeared on such tracks as Finally, Diamond Life, and David Guetta's "How Soon is Now." She is amazing, and does the track justice.  This track was released earlier this year, and features a collaboration with their label boss Steve Angello  http://jackhadagroove.blogspot.ca/2012/05/an21-max-vangeli-vs-steve-angello-h8ers.html
For Nightfall, they are joined by UK producer Michael Woods.
 The track "Fresh Start" seems to be missing from their SoundCloud, and the track Whisper is posted twice. I think it was just an oversight.
I really like this one. Its probably my favorite from the album. Its not a big room anthem, but more of a night closer. They previewed the track more than a year ago, and have since made some adjustments. I will admit I liked the original better but its still an awesome, haunting track. Features the vocals of MC/rapper/lyricist Example.
Moguai's big burst onto the scene was with his Fatboy Slim Remix of "Push the Tempo." He contributes to the synth heavy "Brunette"
Kim Fai is no stranger to SIZE, having released Era/Supernova on the label. He joins the boys on "Story"
This one features Rudy Sandapa, the Australian vocalist who also goes by the moniker Ruben Haze and frequently collaborates with fellow Aussie Dirty South. His most notable tracks are In the Air (TV Rock), Open Your Heart, Let it Go, We Are, and most recently, on Henrik B's Leave a Light On http://jackhadagroove.blogspot.ca/2012/04/henrik-b-leave-light-on.html. He lends his vocals to "This Far"
The album was released on SIZE records on September 4th, 2012.
