Cosmic Gate – ‘Your Mind’

R3HAB x GATTÜSO – ‘Creep’
R3HAB and GATTÜSO team up on their new collaborative version of ‘Creep’ — a cover of one of Radiohead’s most iconic tracks — redone with a vocal big-room house vibe.

PLS&TY – ‘High (fear. Tima)’
“I think the essence of the track is really what drives the PLS&TY project as a whole — staying above all of the negativity and noise, and promoting ‘good vibes’ and happiness. I really enjoy Tima Dee’s vocal performance on this track (‘High’), and believe her voice really captures the uplifting spirit and energy that also embody the instrumental.”

Sidny x Chaix – ‘Someone New’
Written to channel the dark, cold mood one goes through when dealing with an unexpected breakup — ‘Someone New’ emphasizes the anti-drop: build everything up, then pull it all away for a super minimal, head nodding drop. Oftentimes, it’s common to experience a fluctuation in emotions when coming out of a relationship. Sidny and Chaix’s ‘Someone New’ describes that series of after effects.
Shaun Frank x Alicia Moffet – ‘On Your Mind’
“The vocals are really fun on this record, and I wanted to do something with a classic house sound but with a modern twist — something almost Motown inspired. I actually started by making a slow old school funk style beat, and then sampled that and produced the song around it. Alicia Moffett really made the song come to life, the texture of her voice matches perfectly with the vibe I was going for. Very excited for the world to hear it (‘On Your Mind’)!”
