William Daniel Review: [review top="1"] [item value="10"]Modeā & Bryan Kearney - Ready to Fly [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"] Modeā and Bryan Kearney arrive on Musical Freedom with Ready To Fly, a track that feels more like a signal flare for where trance is headed. Built on towering melodic instincts, it unfolds with a sense of poise, the kind that grips you early and refuses to loosen its hold. The breakdown leans into a beautifully suspended vocal, almost weightless, while a broad, luminous lead line stretches across the mix, tightening the emotional pull with every passing phrase. When the drop finally lands, it surges. There is power here, certainly, but it is guided by emotion rather than brute force. The production is polished, carrying a fluid, modern sheen that allows its emotional core to shine through without distraction. It is that balance between scale and sensitivity that gives the track its lasting impact. What stands out most is the chemistry. Kearney’s driving intensity meets Modeā’s melodic finesse in a way that feels instinctive. Together they carve out a sound that feels contemporary without chasing trends, confident in its identity whilst pushing the genre forward. This is exactly the kind of record that defines trance in 2026. It is expansive, emotive, and unafraid to reach for something greater. With figures like Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren & John O Callaghan continuing to spotlight this evolving sound, Ready To Fly has all the makings of a global smash, the sort of production that flirts from festival main stages to late night headphones without losing a shred of its magik.

Tiësto has officially released his highly anticipated new single, ‘Beautiful Places’, featuring the ethereal vocals of Brieanna Grace. Dropping today via Musical Freedom, the track marks a significant milestone as the second official single of his high profile rebrand back into the world of trance.
Following the momentum of ‘Bring Me To Life’, this latest release confirms that the Dutch icon is moving full steam ahead with his new sonic direction. For those who have been following his ‘Prismatic’ radio show or caught his recent live performances, the melody will feel like a familiar friend. Tiësto has been teasing ‘Beautiful Places’ in his sets for months, most notably debuting it during his headline trance performance at Dreamstate SoCal last November.
What makes ‘Beautiful Places’ stand out is its ability to feel fresh while paying homage to the genre that built Tiësto’s legacy. Unlike some of his more commercial recent works that can occasionally feel formulaic, this track feels genuinely unique. The sound choices are impeccable, blending modern production crispness with the soaring, emotional builds that define classic trance.
The collaboration with Brieanna Grace is a masterstroke. Her evocative lyricism and intricate vocal delivery provide the perfect emotional anchor for the track’s driving energy. This is a core piece of the puzzle for Tiësto’s upcoming trance focused album, successfully bridging the gap between his legendary past and the future of the genre.
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Tiësto’s collaboration with Brieanna Grace on “Beautiful Places” stands as an exemplary showcase of modern trance production, delivering a track that is both technically sophisticated and deeply moving. From the very first moments, the rhythm and groove are meticulously structured to engage listeners and dancers alike. The driving kick and bassline create a sense of propulsion that underpins the entire composition, offering a solid foundation for the melodic elements to unfold. The energy flow is carefully maintained through nuanced layering, and the groove evolves organically, ensuring that the track sustains momentum without ever feeling repetitive. The melodic hooks and harmonic layers are a standout feature, with lush pads and arpeggiated synths interweaving to form a rich harmonic tapestry. The main melody achieves a rare duality: it is both euphoric and tinged with a haunting depth, resonating emotionally without veering into predictability. Transitions and build-ups are executed with surgical precision, utilizing automation and filter sweeps to generate anticipation before each drop. These moments are not merely functional but emotionally charged, intensifying the audience’s experience and making each release of energy cathartic and memorable. Sound design and production quality demonstrate Tiësto’s mastery of modern studio techniques. Every element sits perfectly in the mix, with a remarkable dynamic range that preserves both the impact of the peaks and the subtlety of the quieter passages. Spatial design is particularly noteworthy; reverbs and delays are sculpted to create an immersive, three-dimensional soundstage that envelops the listener, enhancing the track’s transportive quality. Originality in the arrangement is evident, as Tiësto balances classic trance motifs with contemporary production flourishes. The track avoids formulaic tendencies, instead offering unique phrasing and unexpected structural turns that keep the listener engaged throughout. The emotional resonance of the track is amplified by Brieanna Grace’s ethereal vocal performance, whose delivery is both tender and powerful. Her lyrics, imbued with hope and introspection, serve as the emotional anchor of the piece, and their integration into the instrumental landscape is seamless. Scientifically, music of this nature has been shown to positively influence mental health and wellness; studies indicate that euphoric and harmonically rich music can stimulate dopamine release, promote emotional regulation, and reduce stress levels (Thoma et al., 2013; Koelsch, 2014). For fitness and wellness classes, “Beautiful Places” offers a perfect blend of steady BPM consistency and uplifting melodic energy, making it ideal for enhancing motivation during cardiovascular or yoga flow sessions. The track’s dynamic energy also aligns well with research on music-induced exercise adherence, as rhythmic entrainment can improve perceived exertion and enjoyment (Karageorghis & Priest, 2012). Beyond its technical brilliance, “Beautiful Places” demonstrates Tiësto’s enduring artistic identity and his ability to create music that resonates across contexts—from festival main stages to personal wellness routines. Its cohesion and storytelling ensure that each musical phrase contributes to an overarching journey, while its club and festival suitability is beyond question given its strategic drops and euphoric peaks. The result is a track that not only captivates audiences but also offers measurable positive effects on human well-being, cementing its status as an instant classic in Tiësto’s evolving catalog. #PureGold Loveit[/content]

Dutch producer Sam Feldt and L.A.'s Benny Bridges bring us their new future rave track, 'Dance With Somebody'. Feldt, famed for his melodic house style, gives a new spin on Bridges' 2019 hit of the same name which samples Whitney Houston's legendary track. The record is Feldt's first strictly festival track and its release is thanks to it becoming a fan-favorite moment during the DJ-turned-producer's sets.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Sam Feldt x Benny Bridges collaborate for the ultimate future rave and highly energetic mainstage banger Dance With Somebody. The vocal sample taken from Whitney's iconic track really works well within the punchy basslines, pounding drums, rough kicks and huge distorted rave style synthy stabs to blow the speakers and unite millions of dance lovers worldwide. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
** EARLY SUPPORT FROM: TIESTO, MARTIN GARRIX, ARMIN VAN BUUREN, NICKY ROMERO, FERRY CORSTEN, ABOVE & BEYOND & MORE **
22 years after conquering the world, ‘Flight 643’ still gets the party going. However - Hel:sløwed felt it could use a bit of a rub. A perfect showcase of that #lowtempohighenergy hashtag the boys keep talking about, this revamp adds depth and substance to the original, upping the tension until it all unfolds into pure, absolute madness. Without a second thought after hearing the very first version, Tiësto signed it to AFTR:HRS / Musical Freedom – putting one of his biggest classics into the safe hands of Hel:sløwed. Now is the time for Hel:sløwed to take you on board - prepare for take-off.
It’s the sound the electronic dance scene didn’t know they needed, but now that Misja Helsloot and Michael de Kooker have showcased their take on ‘low tempo, high energy’ for the past 12 months, it’s pretty clear it’s here to stay – to much appraise. The staggering 5 million Spotify plays and an endless list of A-list support cross-genre they’ve clocked up since their debut is made of highlights such as ‘In Silence’ (ft. That Girl), ‘Like A Ghost’(ft. Ava Silver), ‘Flashed’ and ‘Drifting Apart’(ft. Cari). Besides the originals, Hel:sløwed has reworked and owned one of the biggest dance classics in history; Grooveyard’s ‘Mary Go Wild’. With that one still doing its rounds on the leading dance floors today, another one’s ready for impact. Buckle up, cause this is Tiësto’s ‘Flight 643’ as you’ve never heard it before.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]The quickly rising Hel:sløwed with excellent releases on Armada and top remix of the classic Mary Go Wild return with their own rework of the Tiesto golden classic Flight 643. Tiesto approved it and signed it to his label and if you check it out you can easily understand why. The track moves in the deep melodic trance territory with progressive house infusions too. Deep brooding atmospheric basslines, chunky grooves, smooth kicks and cool percussion while on top great synths, heavenly female voices and warm atmosphere carry you up and away. The breakdown is dark and mysterious with hints of the well known riffs of the original. The climax continues the monumental trip by turning the intense classic into a slower but still euphoric gem targeting the peak time of any deeper type of trance set. The guys manage to make the original on their own by keeping its authentic essence. #PureGold Love IT[/content]
Tiësto has officially released his long-awaited album, Drive - the crowning achievement that celebrates the latest period of Tiësto’s career. Drive is Tiësto’s first conceptual album since Kaleidoscope in 2009, it’s visual component paying homage to his life-long fascination of Formula 1 racing. The art is inspired by the 2004 Monaco Grand Prix, where a $430,000 diamond affixed to the front of a racecar disappeared forever – a tale that sets the album’s tone of sophisticated glitz and intrigue.
Also released today alongside the album is the official album DJ mix.
“I am so beyond excited for this project to be out in the world!” said Tiësto. “This album is something anyone can enjoy on the dancefloor, in the gym, on a car ride, anywhere or anytime you are looking for incredible sonics and energy. Seeing how much everyone is loving the string of singles has been incredible, and it was amazing putting the full album all together.”
Drive showcases the sleek and sexy sound that’s become Tiësto’s signature. Lead single "The Business" (2X PLATINUM) has already amassed over 1.7 billion streams worldwide, and the album features even more hits. Named for the perpetual momentum of his creative calling and the physical movement his work continues to inspire, the album also includes multi-million streaming worldwide hit singles “Don’t Be Shy” with Karol G (GOLD CERTIFIED), “The Motto with Ava Max (PLATINUM),” “Hot In It (With Charli XCX),” “10:35” with Tate McRae (quickly approaching gold status) and “All Nighter” which together have a combination of over 4.4 billion global streams. Drive’s new music video for “All Nighter” follows a string of videos from the previously released tracks directed by Christian Breslauer, Hannah Lux Davis and Courtney Phillips, which combined have amassed 775 million views.
Tiësto hosted a cutting-edge, first of it’s kind 3D listening experience in Los Angeles where those who attended got lost in the remarkable experience that revolutionized the way fans interact with live music. The captivating visuals alongside fresh music from Tiësto took over the internet with fans + VIPs sharing their experience.
Musically, the concept album details an epic night out, certainly an experience Tiësto understands better than most. This nightlife voyage begins with “All Nighter” a call to arms for the madness to come. Ava Max then encourages listeners to “drop a few bills and pop a few champagne bottles” on “The Motto” before the evening shifts into full gear with the clock striking “10:35.” It’s then time to hit the dance floor and get down to “The Business”. This party then welcomes vocal guests A Boogie “Chills (LA Hills)”, Charli XCX “Hot In It”, The Black Eyed Peas “Pump It Louder” and Karol G “Don’t Be Shy”, with the vibe then shifting into house music that will make you fall in love on the dancefloor on “I’d Bet”, and the alluring afterhours feel of “Back Around.” The LP closes with “Lay Low,” the one to play at dawn when all you want is to live the night over again. Drive makes the thrill of the dancefloor available whenever, and wherever, listeners turn it on.
Tiësto is no stranger to pushing boundaries, and Drive promises to be no exception. With its innovative production, genre-defying collaborations, and infectious hooks, the album cements Tiësto's status as one of the most influential artists in electronic music today.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Tiësto releases always great tracks that manage to stay in the verge of pop and electronic. For Lay Low what makes it to stand out is the choir chorus that really stand out and stays in your head. The distorted male vocal works really well to keep the focus of the audience and make it great to sing a long. Great relaxing balearic melody upon pulsating basslines and punchy kicks. Now the package becomes complete with the additional remixes. Argy provides the dreamy melody deep progressive house with excellent drive and cinematic atmosphere with big synthy hook in the breakdown and cool euphoric climax. He uses only the choir vocal and is great for those who want less vocals. His own VIP remix is larger than life version with tougher basslines, only the children choir voices and fantastic climax when he replays the main melody with that rave distorted synthy lead perfect for mainstage performances. Finally Nick Strand x Mio provide the softer pop dance friendly version with deeper moody bassline, balearic summery sunkissed sounds and the male vocal without any distortion sounding really cool indeed. Excellent single from the one and only Tiësto. #PureGold Love IT [/content]

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Tiësto is a true entertainer with focus on making happy his devoted audience. His label Musical Freedom releases bangers non stop and now the owner himself reveals the awesome Can U Dance (To My Beat). The vocals are well known and sampled many times.

Released on his own Musical Freedom label, it's a raving piece of music, building up energy from the start with cool kicks and heavy bass. Then, the party ignites with a huge melody, dark and infectious, making sure the crowd will go crazy. Peaktime music, played to bits this summer on festival mainstages by both Tiësto and Hardwell.

Legendary DJ/Producer Tiësto has unveiled his brand new edit of ‘BOOM’, teaming up with rap superstar Gucci Mane to form a potent floor-filling mix of his 2017 track of the same name. Out now on Musical Freedom/PM:AM Recordings listen to “BOOM” here.
Long admired as the man at the forefront of electronic dance music’s rise in popularity, the Musical Freedom label owner brings a heavy bass feel to the production, teaming up with Sevenn, as Gucci - a headliner at 2017’s Coachella Festival - laces the release with his fast-bars, and wittily lyricised flow.
“My track “BOOM” is already a massive club hit, and I figured that it still had some room to grow with the right feature. I’ve always liked Gucci’s flow and music, so I approached him and he was down! This particular collaboration came together organically” says Tiësto. “What I’ve learned about teaming up with other artists is that everyone’s ear is different and everyone has their unique approach to working with a track. I know my sound very well, which can make collaborations difficult because I’m not willing to compromise my style. But, when my collaborations work, they really work. This track is an example of that.”
This cross-genre collaboration comes after the original track’s massive success, garnering over 100M streams worldwide and widely recognized as one of the most supported tracks among DJs in 2017. As a sign of things to come, ‘BOOM’ kicks off what promises to be a hallmark year for the dance music icon. In addition to the music, Tiësto has announced several major tour dates for 2018, including February shows at Festival Hall in Melbourne and Hordern Pavilion in Sydney, as well as a massive day-long event for Steel Yard London in May. Tickets are on sale now.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]On My Way is the brand new single by the superstar DJ and producer Tiësto that features Bright Sparks. The track is simply magnificent feel good euphoric deep house at its best. Sparkling grooves, organic drum programming, summery guitar riffs, dreamy strings, and of course excellent mouthwatering trumpet riffs in the drop that remind you Kungs style and bring that happy atmosphere with its irresistible rhythm. The vocal is memorable with lyrics that you can easily digest with the word radio pop anthem written all over it. When winter days look darker and a ray of sunlight appears behind the clouds certainly you feel like playing On My Way on repeat mode. #PureGold Love IT[/content]
