For any diehard progressive house and trance fans the name Gai Barone is certainly a well known one.

 His productions on Afterglow, Coldharbour and Hope this past year were absolutely spectacular. Gai's popular 'Healing' and 'Magnetic' radioshows have also displayed his excellent skills as a DJ and music programmer. Gai's first release of the year marks the long awaited debut of Carsten Million's new Hyline Music imprint which is sure to be one of the most talked about labels throughout 2011.

 'Samothrace' has got the label off to a blazing start and comes with remixes from Relaunch and Raf Fender. Gai's original has a bubbly, well shaped, character-laden bassline that sits beneath some very fresh sounds, really unique melodic lines and killer bells. This is a unique piece of dance music, original sounding and intelligent but still has that dancefloor friendly element that should rock any club. The real brilliance of tracks with so much depth like this one is you can listen to them several times over and still discover new things and your dancefloor will as well!

Relaunch was one of the most pleasant surprises of 2010 as he quickly made a name for himself with top notch tracks on Jetlag and he appears to be set for big things this year on Hyline Music. Relaunch has added a much more driving, straight forward progressive vibe and with the general quirkiness of the original it's a great direction to go. The signature warm and full bottom end that Relaunch has become so loved for is there in all its pulsating glory. Crisp percussion and razor sharp synths drive the track and give it a ton of bounce and dancefloor energy. It's an excellent alternative to Gai's already amazing original and it should rock most progressive dancefloors with ease!

Not to be outdone Raf Fender closes the package out with a more playful melodic progressive version with lovely dancing keys and warm chords. The hypnotic keys really make the track and the chords work perfectly over them. A massive breakdown with epic overtones only adds to the largeness as the track drops back in for a spectacular finale. A killer first release for Hyline Music. And we know there is much more to come! :) Support from: Jerome Isma-Ae, Sandra Collins, Serge Devant, Eelke Kleijn, Fady Ferraye, Noel Sanger, Monaque, Egostereo, Luke Porter, Solarity and more!
