After being the voice of 2012's anthem 'Concrete Angel,' Christina Novelli and Craig Connelly's new collaboration 'Black Hole' is full of moody undertones about the dangers of diving head first into new love, but twists and turns into an uplifting trance anthem full of clubby dance vibes. Out now on Garuda Music, the release of 'Black Hole' is joined by the official music video that can be viewed here.
With Christina's powerful vocals and Craig's thoughtful approach to production, 'Black Hole' is reminiscent of the old school raver days of 138 BPM, kandy kids and underground dance clubs, but with a modern twist that uniquely pushes today's sound forward. A guitar riff plays off the track's storytelling of being caught between following your heart or listening to your brain, and the yearning lyrics will resonate with anyone who's ever been in that position. But where 'Black Hole' tugs on your heartstrings, its catchy groove and sing-a-long spirit will bring a smile to the face of even the most hardened trancefamily member.
As head of A&R at Garuda Music, Craig Connelly is the name behind chart-topping tracks such as 'Like Whatever,' 'Absolute Electric,' 'Robot Wars,' and 'Manchester AM.' He has remixed for Tritonal ('Everafter'), Gareth Emery ('Concrete Angel') and John B. (Connected) and played alongside the world's top DJs at Ministry of Sound, Sankeys, The Warehouse and Space Miami. Christina Novelli became known as the breakout singer-songwriter from last year who racked up over 15 million views for the 'Concrete Angel' music video. Fresh off her first US tour, Christina has upcoming collaborations in the pipeline with Armin van Buuren, Dash Berlin, and Judge Jules, along with a Gareth Emery sequel.
Nominated as Future Favorite on episode #615 of Armin van Buuren's A State of Trance radio show, 'Black Hole' proves that the future shines bright for Craig Connelly and Christina Novelli.
Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the biggest vocal trance anthems has landed. The top record label Garuda Music headed by the lovely superstar Gareth Emery presents the massive anthem Black Hole. Craig Connely collaborates with the exceptional singer Christina Novelli for what it seems to be the vocal trance anthem of 2013. The production is the finest you can get and the track will especially welcomed from the pure trance fanatics. Some people claim that the classic uplifting trance sound has gone but unfortunately for them trance is alive and kicking. Black Hole is a powerful, dynamic, energetic uplifting 135 BPM trancer with driving basslines to the maximum and on top of course the incredible voice of Christina who sings the deep, meaningful, melancholic vocals. The breakdown is so atmospheric and chilly that will give you instantly goosebumps. When the huge synths are unleashed expect to get shivers from head to toe. Hands will be in the air and happy faces all over the place. It will remind you classic trance tracks from producers like Rank 1 for example. It's so massive that sometimes words can not easily describe the rush you feel when you hear it. Lets hope this type of trance tracks will come more often as we are all hungry and very thursty for pure vocal trance mega burners like this one. Highly recommended. Love IT!
