After collaborating with a spectrum of diverse vocalists of many colors and genres, including Kelis, Ne-Yo, Example, and Florence + the Machine, Calvin Harris is back to commanding the mic, relinquishing production prerogative to Dutch companion Nicky Romero. The result? A two-faced progressive house monstrosity—half savage, half subdued—worthy of it’s metallic, magnetic title.
Following suit of element-inspired song titling (i.e. David Guetta feat. Sia’s “Titanium”), Nicky Romero solidifies his superiority over the broadened progressive house playing field that now contains countless dabblers of progressive electro fusion with “Iron“. Given how much energy the man can pressurize into 6 minute time frames, it’s no surprise the Dutch artist would assign the name of the most globally produced metal to one of his tracks. As an instrumental, “Iron” is a highly reactive track. Add Calvin Harris’ perfectly able vocals as a catalyst to the reaction and the product is an entirely new compound that fits proper Protocol on Nicky Romero’s rising label imprint.
