Nordic dance duo aname and Danish singer-songwriter Lydmor collaborate on ‘Peaceful Avenues’, out now on Anjunabeats.

The collaborative work of Marcus Schössow and Thomas Sagstad reached its latest apex last year with their debut album ‘Beautiful World’, a record that the pair have envisioned since first meeting over two decades ago. Following on from solo work with the likes of Swedish House Mafia, Axwell /\ Ingrosso and Kaskade over the last ten years, the duo’s debut album is the latest milestone in their expansive discographies.

Originally featured as part of ‘Beautiful World’, ‘Peaceful Avenues’ is renowned as one of the biggest moments in aname’s set lists. Now, the anthemic track now sees its own release alongside multiple new mixes.

'Peaceful Avenues’ (Unplugged) sees Lydmor deliver a slow and emotional rendition of the popular track from a grand piano in Above & Beyond's studio. Also included in the release are a shorter edit of the original, as well as a full piano 'Unplugged' Instrumental Mix. Fans can expect to see behind-the-scenes footage of the recording process to be posted on aname and Lydmor’s social and YouTube channels in the coming weeks.

aname are currently on their worldwide Beautiful World Tour with upcoming shows in the USA, Canada, Hong Kong, Europe and more for any fans looking to see 'Peaceful Avenues' played out live in a city near them. Tickets on sale now (www.anamemusic.com/tour).

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]aname & Lydmor collaboration Peaceful Avenues is absolutely timeless classic and it is pretty sure that this track will age like the good old wine. The simplicity and the awesome touching performance of the so simple and involving lyrics that can even make u cry in the brilliant unplugged mix is definitely the loudest proof of how amazing this track is and that will become another stellar classic for the Anjunabeats family. The superb extended mix included will be played again in the clubs with fantastic pulsating basslines, big distorted like synthy stabs and excellent climax that seems to work so perfect to even offer some uplifting moments that dancefloors will adore big time. #PureGold Love IT[/content]

BRKLYN & Mariah McManus' 'Can't Get Enough' saw the US-duo launched further into the limelight with a widely-well received dose of their expertly crafted Progressive House sound - with the Original still seeing extensive DJ support and international radio airplay, the results of the far-reaching WAVO Remix Competition have come in...

Opening up their heartfelt record to the masses, BRKLYN & Mariah McManus' Original saw remix attempts covering all corners imaginable; from Dubstep to Hardcore, Electro to Trance, all bases were covered. Sifting through the submissions BRKLYN selected two favourites; Infuse & Bradley Allan, to be released through Enhanced, and here there are.

Infuse took BRKLYN & Mariah McManus' Original and beefed up it's emotive appeal with swelling atmospherics, sun-kissed synth leads and deftly placed guitar plucks throughout. Transforming 'Can't Get Enough' into a whole new, festival ready beast Infuse's rendition reworks Mariah McManus' vocals into a powerful new Progressive House version.

Bradley Allan's experimental, chopped up remix totally switches up 'Can't Get Enough' into a playful, building and emotive journey, filled with rippling chords, cavernous basslines and feel-good energy.

Tying off the release, BRKLYN teamed up once again with Mariah McManus' on a mind-blowing 'Unplugged' version stripping back 'Can't Get Enough' to its very core and extracting every last ounce from those heartfelt lyrics to culminate into a beautifully apt ending to a wide-reaching remix release.

'Can't Get Enough' returns but not as you'd expect, these are the Remixes.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]It's always great pleasure to receive remix packages from Enhanced because you have to expect the unexpected. On the latest track Can't Get Enough there are 3 great new versions. Firstly is the unplugged version perfect to play in chill out sets after the hard beats when the crowd needs to relax and reflect on how good was the night. Emotional and touching unplugged version with that indie rock touch that give it extra dynamism and live organic feel. Bradley Allan Remix moves in and out of dubstep and trap with distorted basslines, punchy break beats and distorted synths that create a very groove smooth but still energetic enough to dance along with it. The real deal here is the Infuse Remix. This is Swedish progressive house at its best with pulsating driving basslines,bouncy thumping drums and great breakdown with guitar riffs, piano chords and cinematic strings that is melancholic and tripping out while the climax is full on mainstage festival euphoria with uplifting synths raising the hair from your back. This is a hit for the summer! #PureGold Love It [/content]
