His eurobeat remixes are just awesome especially ones centered around boy bands. To start off with, just listen to this remix of My Love by Westlife.
I love the original and this remix is just as good. However, I find Akyra remixes to be far superior to the original songs of another boy band. That band being One Direction. Don't believe me? Here, listen to this.
Not convinced? Here's another one.
Now for anyone here who happens to be a 1D fan I'm not dissing you or the original songs. In all fairness they're not horrible, but in my opinion they lack energy. You see, I grew up with the Backstreet Boys back in the late 90s and the early 2000s along with their rivals *NSYNC. What made them so popular is their music always had some sort of energy that you got you motivated, whether it was a energetic dancing one or a softer romantic one. With boy bands today, I don't feel any of that whenever I listen to their music. Now if the boy bands today of today did their music eurobeat style, as you see above, I could totally get into them because these remixes gives the songs the energy that the originals are severely lacking. But again, that's just my taste in music. I don't expect everyone to agree or understand that. So to close out, here's a couple more from this guy.
I have to admit, I was reluctant to listen to this one because I've come to really despise Hip-Hop and I didn't believe that it mix well with Eurobeat. However, this remix proved me wrong and you know what? If Hip-Hop was a little more like this I could appreciate it more. And last but not least.
What more can I say? It's Gangnam Style meets Eurobeat! And it's awesome! | ||||||||||

Ahh cool! I know a guy named Cashew, and Hainam through soundcloud that are close by Malaysia... a lot of neat talent's coming out from there! I totally agree, after giving them all a listen the Westlife track is a great listen! | ||

He made a eurobeat remix of I Wanna Dance with Somebody for my bf. It's an awesome track. Listen to it! [ Post made via Mobile Device ] |

Sadly...he's been into photography over the past year or so. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] |
