Doug Loch’s New Single ‘Dark Storm’ Is A Progressive Masterstroke

Doug Loch’s Dark Storm is a striking dive into the deeper, more cinematic corners of progressive house and melodic techno. There’s a tangible sense of drama pulsing through every beat, from the emotionally charged chord progression to the carefully sculpted textures. It’s a track that doesn’t just ask for attention—it demands it.

What sets Dark Storm apart is its spontaneity and raw inspiration. Written during a late-night session at Sydney’s Liveschool, the main riff feels instinctive yet deliberate, anchoring the track with a kind of melodic magnetism. The use of a field-recorded wave adds an organic touch that bridges the gap between nature and machine, softening the digital edges just enough to pull the listener deeper in.

The Danny Bonnici remix is the icing on the cake—bringing a seasoned, crowd-tested energy that’s already made waves on Hernan Cattaneo’s stage. As the most dancefloor-focused track in Loch’s catalog, Dark Storm feels like both an arrival and an evolution. It’s music made for motion, crafted with soul.
