“Go” is the Winning Hand: A Big Room tune with great vocals, melodic variations, and energetic bass
• 2015 vibes in the main drop
• Strong vocal performance to valorize the breakdown
• Excellent melodic switch in the second half
“Go” by Winning Team is a standout Big Room track that hits all the right notes, blending great vocals, melodic shifts, and energetic bass to create a captivating piece of dance music. As a long-time fan of the Finnish team, I’ve come to expect high-quality underground tracks from them, and “Go” does not disappoint. With their unique collective sound, you can always feel the different creative minds at play, and it’s clear that each member’s perspective has shaped this track into something really special.
The tune follows a pretty traditional Big Room formula, one that will feel familiar to fans of Afrojack’s 2014 sound. It starts with a melodic breakdown, featuring a catchy vocal that draws you in, and then transitions into an Electro House drop that has just the right amount of anticlimax to keep the listener on their toes. What I really love is how the track doesn’t rush into its next drop. Instead, it builds naturally toward the melodic Big Room finale, which is the perfect payoff for the energy that’s been building up.
The first drop, with its Electro House vibes, is definitely a crowd-pleaser, but it’s not the most groundbreaking thing you’ll hear. If you’ve heard “Locked & Loaded (Hardwell Edit)” or other similar tracks, you’ll recognize the pattern. It works, no doubt, but it can feel a bit heavy if used too much. So, Winning Team smartly switches it up for the second drop, taking a more Progressive route. This shift brings a fresh balance to the track: it’s energetic but also smooth and refined, which is a great contrast to the intensity of the first drop. It’s impressive how they made this transition feel natural, not forced at all.
And I have to mention the breakdown. It’s where the track really shines. The vocal is simply gorgeous, adding an emotional layer that’s often missing in Big Room tunes. This kind of vocal work really sets “Go” apart from the pack.
On paper, “Go” might look like a textbook Big Room anthem, but in practice, it’s much more than that. It checks all the boxes: catchy, energetic, melodic, and well-produced, making it a fantastic example of what a modern Big Room track should sound like.
