If there’s one month that electronic music eyes are most fixed on Ibiza, it’s August … and Cosmic Gate’s are no exception! Sending hot season’s mercury that much higher, Nic & Bossi have teamed up with the island’s Amàre Beach Hotel Ibiza in Cala De Bou. Renowned for some of the most eye-catching backdrops La Isla Blanca has to offer, CG this week performed an emotionally stirring sundown set from the resort’s rooftop.
Music-wise, naturally it’s no ordinary livestream either, rather one that’s an-hour-and-a-half packed with upcoming CG releases, exclusive first-listens, new Wake Your Mind Records material and remix premieres aplenty!
Foremost amongst those is the new single ‘Trifecta’, itself a ‘trifecta’ between Nic, Bossi and distinguished Canadian producer Arnej. Their trio’s first reteaming since ‘Sometimes They Come Back For More’ a dozen years ago, the track’s a brooding, pulsing, propellant slice of tech, that’s all set to roll across late summer floors. That goes on release Aug 9, but you can put ears to ‘Trifecta’ this very minute, via the Amàre Beach Ibiza Livestream, link for which is here. And once that’s got you in the mood, there’s plenty more summer 2024 CG festival action to check, not least their performance at Parookaville, which can be found hereabouts!

[item value="10"]Cosmic Gate & Arnej - Trifecta [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Cosmic Gate remain for years at the forefront of electronic dance music scene by always being forward thinking and progressive in its true sense of the word. By always experimenting introducing new elements and delivering unforgettable sonic adventures to their fanbase. Now is the well known and beloved Arnej unleash the stunning Trifecta. This is 130 BPM mainstage proglifting banger with superb electro touched basslines, pounding drums, pulsating kicks and exceptional atmospheric strings and synths leading to the stunning long breakdown when the cool melodic slowly and gradually erupts out of nowhere and bangs hard in an explosive way. Melody that will recall some of their most classic tracks bringing some waves of cool nostalgia. Driving melodic anthemic and firestorming Trifecta is one of these tracks that people will notice and add it in their collection too. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
