Gareth Emery and Ashley Wallbridge are getting mentioned in the same breath more often than not these days, and for good reason. Since starting their collaborative journey with the unmistakable ‘Mansion’, the pair have refined, polished and perfected their in-studio synergy with unreal devotion, racking up numerous successful collaborations (e.g. ‘DUI’, ‘CVNT5’) and, of course, running their Garuda label together. Now, fresh from working their collective magic on stage, the Brits strengthen their partnership with a mighty and expansive body of work that proudly bears a hallmark of present-day relevance: ‘Kingdom United’. 



Hoping to unite the world – and more specifically the U.K. – in times of political divide and uncertainty, Gareth Emery and Ashley Wallbridge’s ‘Kingdom United’ shines like a lone ray of sunshine through a thick layers of clouds. Backed by a loving recognition and support for their home country, the album sees the dance music icons energize their already lethal team-up with no less than fourteen amazing songs, ranging from title track ‘Kingdom United’ and the viral smash ‘CVNT5’ to brand-new cuts such as ‘Lionheart’ (feat. PollyAnna)’, 'Never Before' (feat. Jonathan Mendelsohn) and ‘Amber Sun’. Meant to empower, enchant and create awareness, it’s albums like these that truly bridge the gap between worlds, allowing for connections to be made between individuals and peers through one common denominator: melodic music that brings people together.
Gareth Emery and Ashley Wallbridge: “‘Kingdom United’ is an album that works equally well played live or at home with friends and a cup of tea. Wherever people choose to listen, we’re sure they’re going to love it!”

Marking the first release on Gareth Emery and Ashley Wallbridge’s revamped Garuda imprint, Darude unveils his anticipated collaboration ‘Surrender’ alongside Ashley Wallbridge and rising talent FOUX. With a rich label history honing a catalogue of releases from the likes of Ferry Corsten and Above & Beyond, Darude introduces the revamped label with a signature Trance offering.
  
With Gareth Emery and Ashley Wallbridge premiering the track and revamp on Armin van Buuren’s legendary A State of Trance radio show on February 1st, ‘Surrender’s’ euphoric melodies and irresistible vocals align both Darude and Ashley Wallbridge’s styles for maximum dancefloor impact.  

After becoming a staple for pushing forward rising talent along with the scene’s finest, Garuda returns with a completely reimagined label ahead of their 10th anniversary in 2019. Now led by both Gareth Emery and Ashley Wallbridge, the ‘Nu’ vision for the avant-garde imprint looks to bring fresh, dynamic material to the platform starting with a powerful opening offering from Darude. 

With previous Garuda events featuring guests such as Markus Schulz, Above & Beyond, Sander Van Doorn and Ferry Corsten, the labels international diary of events looks set to reach exciting new dimensions starting with exclusive club nights on the label’s home turf, the UK in February, whilst building upon their esteemed collection of compilations and artist albums from Garuda veterans. 
Touching on the release, Darude stated "Having been a fan of the Garuda sound, like, half trance, but not afraid to go outside of it, too, I’m very happy to become associated with the brand as well. I’m excited to have the first release on the newly revamped label and having heard other stuff that’s coming out soon, too, it’s all good news for dance music fans in general! "
After a year which has taken Darude across the likes of Tomorrowland (Belgium) and Emmaboda Festival (Sweden), as well as wealth of shows across the US, Australia, New Zealand and beyond, his tour profile continues to expand with a ‘Surrender’ tour through the US over the next few months, giving fans multiple chances to hear the new Garuda offering on the dancefloor!

 [item value="10"]Darude & Ashley Wallbridge feat. Foux - Surrender[/item]
 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Darude & Ashley Wallbridge combine their creativity to deliver the superb vocal trance smasher  Surrender feat. Foux. The track is melodic proglifting trance at its very best with that energetic melodic pumping clubby trance sound with fat pulsating basslines, thumping drums, sharp kicks, driving arrangement and rough groove. The melodies are very touching and able to crawl under your skin and uplift you without trying too hard.The vocal performance and the lyrics have depth and aesthetic class so you will totally transcended into the story Foux describes. Great track to start the new I hope trancier era for Garuda. #PureGold Love IT[/content]
