Afrojack & Bobby Burns - Bridge (Original Mix)

Afrojack's first big release of the year is Bridge, with Bobby Burns. I really like this track, because I was starting to get sick of Afrojack's Clap 'n' Bass style, which he was using on every track he played. Despite saying that, the music he produces is usually quite good. 


The problem with artists that get popular is that all of a sudden people will start layering every track they make with compliments, simply because so-and-so was on the track, even if the track was average at best. Instead of judging each individual track on its merits, people will judge a track based on the fact that Afrojack produced it. 


While I realise that its natural to have certain expectations from artists we like, it's a shame that too often hits are made simply because of the name of the artist, rather than the song itself. In many ways it's the same with a designer brand; even though you might really like a brand, doesn't mean you have to support every piece of apparel they produce, because undoubtedly some of them will be rubbish. 


Anyways, no Clap 'n' Bass on this one, and no vocals either, just 7 minutes of good sound. Enjoy.
