Martin Garrix & Troye Sivan Unite Forces on Electropop Anthem “There For You”

Australian singer/actor Troye Sivan burst onto the music scene with his innocent-sounding yet anthemic vocals in powerhouse breakbeat-tinged hits such as his “Wild” and “Youth” singles in 2015. It seems a natural progression for him to pair up with Dutch EDM/pop super producer Martin Garrix who has loudly been building his own music portfolio with very noteworthy collabs in the pop and dance music spaces including everyone from world-class DJ/producers and fellow Dutchmen Tiesto and Afrojack to American R&B/electropop songstress Bebe Rexha.

The polished Kraftwerkian synthpop electronica of Garrix on the 2017 single, “There For You,” indeed provides an ideal space for Sivan’s sincere vocal melodrama to shine. “Last year took a toll on me but I made it with you next to me...around the world and back again...I hope you're waiting at the end,” emotes Sivan with passion and confidence yet still humbly retaining qualities of innocence, insecurity and introspection. Meanwhile Garrix manufactures his industrious electronic pop that merges smoothly with Sivan’s silky voice.

“There For You” majestically ebbs and flows as the song's verses and chorus ride calmly over its dubstep-influenced soundscape. It's breakbeat bravado and vocal solitude fusing nicely together here for a very up-for-it EDM light track nobly promoting solidarity and being there for someone through thick and thin. It's a message for the ages that's often sung about. “There For Me” polishes it off though and gives it a new sheen in 2017 with two artists whose stars continue to rise.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
