It’s here - the first Chapter of Cosmic Gate’s new dual album release drops onto stores and streams today. Following the release of their ‘20 Years – Forward Ever, Backward Never’ LP in 2019, the GRAMMY nominated duo are again set to challenge the conventional thinking of what Cosmic Gate ‘are’.

Right on cue, August 27 saw the musical mark of high-summer return, and ready to soundtrack peak season with three more sunrise-portraying mixes!

On August 20, Cosmic Gate will release the first stage of their hotly anticipated new artist album. Trailed throughout the early parts of 2021 by vanguard single releases and stunning live streams, ‘MOSAIIK’ will platform nine sensational cuts from the GRAMMY-nominated duo.

Given its ‘Chapter 1’ prefix, at least something of what was to follow could be divined. With Mr. Fleming playing most of its cards chest-close though, the track’s arcane meaning still had a whole lotta unknown to it.

When it comes to premium music-compilation series, there are few better indicators of merit than hitting double digits. Prizes, praises and plaudits all have their place, but in the realm of mixcomp, nothing beats enduring popularity.

It’s been seven years - and some long ones at that - since Solarstone last designed and constructed an ‘Electronic Architecture’. While ‘EAs’ 1 thru ‘3' maintained a regular release pulse, with each year that followed 2014, the series’ absence has been felt ever more acutely.

Illustrating former Flashover Recordings lynchpin Celwin Frenzen’s label vision further this month, Gundamea (aka German duo Stoneface & Terminal) return, bringing us the ethereally spellbinding ‘Back For More’.

With their Miami Best Of 2020 set taking just three months to become the group’s most popular YouTube upload to date (over 2.2 Million views and counting!), livestream culture’s now second nature to Cosmic Gate.

The gateway to May sees VII turn loose ‘Dusk Till Dawn’ – the label’s hotly anticipated fourth double disc music comp.

The latest remix to come from the DJ/producer is a certified rinser that is primed for dancefloors the world over. Monumental in all aspects, the tune is sure to be yet another hit in Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren, and Sander van Doorn’s back-catalogs.

What exactly John 00 Fleming has in ‘21-store is currently known to one person and one person only, but today we get a glimpse at least of what’s on his studio-mind.

Cosmic Gate’s Miami Open Skies set will be broadcast as an online exclusive event and will not be available on demand afterwards, so make sure you don’t miss this!

Scorchin’s future is now! From the rapidly upcoming to their late spring/early summer speaker-delighters to-be, it’s all here, ready for you now.

The biggest trance festival in the world, A State of Trance (ASOT), has reached a monumental milestone and is celebrating reaching 1000 episodes of the worldwide hit radio show.

Over the album’s passage both life’s lifts & dips are explored, always beautifully, regularly with heart-on-sleeve honesty and with an eloquence unmistakably born of intelligent music making.
