Cosmic Gate present their new single "Calm Down" on the Black Hole imprint. The boys team up with the lovely Emma Hewitt performing the vocals.

"Calm Down" is the follow up to Cosmic Gate's previous single, the collaboration with U.S. indie singer/songwriter Cary Brothers, entitled "Wake Your Mind". With a new Extended Mix and remixes by scene-darlings Tritonal and DBN, the single package became an instant hit in the clubs and venues all over the world. This time the new "Calm Down" once again defines the massive Cosmic Gate sound that doesn't shy away from rough tech-trance drum- and synth programming, all the while delivering the best possible backing track for Emma Hewitt's haunting vocals. DJs will be thrilled to check out the killer break while their audience sings along on the dance floor in anticipation for the beats to return; submerged in a touching arrangement with state of the art classical strings.

The remix package secures powerful, big room renditions from Ost & Meyer, Omnia and a stunning Chillout Mix by Zetandel; six massive cuts perfect for every given live set.

Cosmic Gate's career boasts 5 artist albums and with more than 30 singles, 50 remixes, 4 Back 2 Back mix-compilations, a 1000+ international gigs and millions of thrilled fans, it is clear why Cosmic Gate belongs to the absolute world top acts in electronic dance music (EDM). Powered by their hugely received albums, club-rocking singles including "Be Your Sound", "The Theme", "Not Enough Time", "F.A.V." and scene-defining classics like "Fire Wire" and "Exploration of Space" their spot in EDM's hall of fame has been secured. 


Dimitri Kechagias review: The excellent trance dj and production duo Cosmic Gate are back after securing a very high placement within the dj mag Top 100 djs list with their new exceptional collaboration with Emma Hewitt who is of course the finest and most expressive voice currently in the EDM world. Calm Down is not only a complete lyrically and musically song but is a powerful dynamic club shaking anthem as well. Its great to see quality coming on the dancefloor. Their extended mix is progressive tech trance with superb synths, melodramatic strings and the airy fairy voice of the lovely Emma. Black Hole recordings ensure that the release gets the best remix treatment and here we go with the package that will surprise you pleasantly. First of all the is superb Omnia remix that is an absolute club banger that will get peak time position in your set without thinking about it. Progressive big room euphoric trance ready to move thousands of clubbers. Solid, full on and so rich with sound layers production that  supports Emma Hewitt voice to shine and cast a spell on you as you will sing a long the lyrics for sure. Top melodic theme to die for on the usual and beloved Omnia well known style that will rock the global sound systems this cold and rainy Autumn days and nights. It sounds like a number 1 at the beatport trance chart in my opinion. 
 Ost & Meyer well known for progressive trance beauties deliver something on their usual playful and crossover sound that even progressive house djs will find useful too. Chunky beats, bubbly basslines, twisted and glitzy parts and on top the ethereal voice of Emma giving you endless unstoppable goosebumps. Piano in the breakdown and cool effects on the cool voice offer to the track a sense of being in another magical place. Top big room riff is introduced too to lead us on the full on main section that works as the perfect climax. Lastly 
Zetandel Chillout Mix is the perfect excuse for some moments of tranquil relaxation in the work, in your car or for those lazy Sunday afternoons. Let the music change you! Love IT!
