EP #1

* Kyau & Albert - Do You Still Know (Joseph Areas Dirty Rock Mix) [Trance] *

'Do You Still Know' was a favourite album song for reviewers and fans, but with 89 BPM original speed extremely hard to turn into a proper club track. Joseph Areas did an awesome remix job here! Early support from Armin van Buuren and Above & Beyond (A&B's Tony McGuinness: “Fat!“).



* Kyau & Albert - At Any Time (Togglehead Remix) [Progressive House] *

Fedde Le Grand was the first who discovered this young Canadian talent and released a Togglehead remix of his track 'Rockin' N' Rollin' in mid 2013. Kyau & Albert loved this remix so much and hired Togglehead to remix 'At Any Time'. He delivered an energetic masterpiece!



* Kyau & Albert - The One (PingPong Remix) [Deep House] *

Boy/Girl duo PingPong is known for their deep melodic sound and growing stars within the German scene. Recently got attention for their bootleg for 'Snowflakes' by White Apple Tree (official release in the US currently planned).



Dimitri Kechagias review: Kyau & Albert are considered to be pioneers within the EDM scene distingushed from their high quality productions and consistency in quality and uniqueness rather than following trends and delivering the same worn out sound. Their latest album proves that Kyau & Albert even after so many years in the music scene they have incredible music to offer and they have open ears and mind to move forward and experiment. It's time for the long awaited remixes album and the first EP is now released revealing the jewels that should be part of your dj collection. First of all the well known Joseph Areas put his magic on Do You Still Know and service a powerful big room progressive trancer with electro slamming fat basslines, tough rocking pumping beats and superb dubstep sequence in the breakdown that work like a treat with the very emotional vocals. The climax is full on euphoric trance with the massive synths and the shocking beats delivering the ultimate uplifting feel good sonic heaven.   At Any Time is remixed in perfection from Togglehead who service a very powerful full on, no holes barred banging, booming and shaking version with heavily distorted rioting basslines and Godzilla feet size beats. The breakdown is quite long and melodic with the vocal staying in the background and the attention placed more on the euphoric synths. The drop is devastating as it carries on the same style as it started so you know that festival crowds will love it big time. Last but not least the 10 minutes remix is delivered by PingPong who present their deep emotional tech house version of The One with ambient like intro and velvet like deep basslines and cool chunky beats. When you hear this remix you can even think because of the melodies that is actually deep moody trance as well. Highly recommended EP. Looking forward for the 2nd EP. Love iT
