Tritonal – Ginsu (Original Mix) [Preview]
Tritonal move into 2015 with major momentum and 3 Billboard Dance Top 10s in their rearview.

Putting a modern twist on the themes of their past work, "Ginsu" introduces a super-charged and razor sharp melody into the pair's first club-focused cut in over a year.
Pierce Fulton – Kuaga (Original Mix) [Preview]
The multi-faceted Pierce Fulton never ceases to surprise. Following up his experimental midtempo track “As You Were” and official remix duties for Above and Beyond on “Sticky Fingers,” the Brooklyn-based production phenom rejoins the CR2 Records family for the “Kuaga/Noon Gun” EP. A two-track masterclass in top notch electronica, Fulton’s first preview comes in the form of “Kuaga,” a sample driven piece that conjures up nostalgia for the days when electro reigned supreme. Built on a framework of filter cuts and gritty synth stabs, that track has already seen support from Above & Beyond, W&W, Nicky Romero and more.

Bobina releases official video for ‘For Who I Am”
Taken from his pan-genre 'Same Difference' long-player, here comes the next single testimony from Russian electronic dance don Bobina. Following the orchestra-driven euphoria of 'Sacramentum', the trance-noir of uber-deep 'Basque The Dog' and the infectious house elevation of 'Miami Echoes', he expands the album's range again. Featuring the vocals of the infinitely talented Ana Criado, here comes the much anticipated 'For Who I Am'. Kicking off 'For Who I Am's single release, Bobina himself has expanded the album's original into a stunning mood-fused Extended version. With the intro's long held sweeping notes setting its tone, he laces it masterfully with pianoforte lines and the deep LFO throb of its bassline. Having previously sung on releases by some of electronic music's biggest names (W&W, Markus Schulz Armin van Buuren and Alex M.O.R.P.H. being just a few), Holland's Ana Criado sweeps the track floor-bound. With its moving theme of unfulfilled love providing its emotional core, Bobina brings the steel, with an incising leadline, which takes the track out of the dark and dazzlingly into the light.
