Alex Sonata & TheRio release ‘Mantra’, out now on Anjunabeats.
Hailing from Scotland and Italy, production duo Alex Sonata & TheRio have rapidly ascended in the global trance scene. The pair first teamed up in 2018; after several collaborations, they made it official in 2020, and Alex Sonata & TheRio was born. They've released a string of explosive club tracks on Anjunabeats including 'Breath Of The Wild', 'Cala Luna', 'Time' and 'Are We Dreaming', and performed at Creamfields and Group Therapy Weekender London last year.
This year, the duo remixed ‘Equal’ from Andrew Bayer’s fourth studio album ‘Duality’, which climbed to #10 in the Beatport Trance (Main Floor) chart. The pair’s latest track, ‘Mantra’, has been hammered by Above & Beyond live of late, including at their headline performance at Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas this May, and at one of the final shows at legendary London institution Printworks.
Following on from sold-out shows at the Royal Dockyards London and The Nautilus Miami over the past year, expect to see Alex Sonata & TheRio at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy Weekender festivities at The Gorge on July 21-23, Anjunabeats Rising Summer Social in London and Anjunabeats Outdoors Montreal.
