Nearing the end of his monumental $1 million House for Hunger charity tour, Avicii now has his sights firmly set on the summer festival circuit. First on his hit list? Tomorrowland of course! After a truly historic headline set on the Saturday main stage last year, he just couldnât resist returning to the greatest party on the planet!
As with every new edition, brand new stage designs and creative site concepts are well underway, and the blueprints are RIDICULOUS⦠Coupled with a drip-fed line-up already including legends such as David Guetta, Calvin Harris, Fatboy Slim, Carl Cox, Alesso, Jamie Jones, John Digweed and of course Avicii, just one thing is certain - 2012âs instalment is set to outdo last yearâs in every conceivable way.

GET IN! Sign Swedish Wonder Duo CAZZETTE!
Swedish youngsters Alexander Björklund and Sebastien Furrer – AKA dub-house duo sensation “Cazzette” – were taken under the wing of Ash Pournouri and At Night Management in 2011. Ever since this master-partnership was forged just a few months ago, they’ve quite literally taken the world of EDM by storm….
With no less than 6 colossal remixes in the same amount of months for some of the year’s biggest tracks – including “Save The World” (Swedish House Mafia) and “Titanium” (David Guetta ft. Sia) – the pair have set the blogosphere ablaze with each and every production topping the Hype Machine charts without hesitation. Having been named by multiple publications as THE act to watch out for in 2012, Get In! are now proud to announce their first collaboration of the year with Cazzette and, once again, with At Night Management.
At the tender ages of 18 and 21, Cazzette are two of the youngest producers and performers in the game. Joining an emerging group of young superstars they’ve already completed their first North American tour alongside close friend Avicii including a support performance at his record-breaking New Years Eve party in New York. As we move into 2012, the Young Swedes are preparing their debut single for release as well as locking down key appearances across the globe, including a main stage slot at Ultra Music Festival!
A FOURTH tour of the States is on the horizon as well as major appearances at key festivals over the summer months. For now, feast your eyes on their epic recap of Pier 94 on New Years Eve and prepare yourselves for the madness that is about to come. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Cazzette.

EDDIE THONEICK TEAMS UP WITH ERICK MORILLO AND SKIN FOR HUGE NEW TRACK ‘IF THIS AIN’T LOVE’ - OUT ON VALENTINE’S DAY
With legendary Skunk Anansie singer Skin taking control of the vocal line, and the undisputable touch of label boss Erick Morillo and regular partner in crime Eddie Thoneick on production duty, Subliminal’s springtime big hitter ‘If This Ain’t Love’ receives its official release – rather appropriately – on Valentine’s Day.
A heady combination of dance floor dynamite and raunchy, sex infused rock, the track continues the winning pairing of Morillo and Thoneick, whose previous collaborations ‘Live Your Life’ and ‘Stronger’ dominated global airwaves and taste-maker charts across 2010 and 2011.
From the outset, ‘If This Ain’t Love’ is in a class of its own. The unmistakable voice of Skin provides an almost ethereal, euphoric dynamic against Morillo and Thoneick’s pumping house set-up. Soaring across thundering guitar riffs and uplifting piano chords, the singer’s emotive performance lifts the track higher and higher as the beats caress the bass lines underneath her.
The Sympho Nympho mix puts a more prominent dance edge on the track, with Erick, Harry Romero and Jose Nunez flexing their more-than-considerable musical muscles, perfecting the original with enough energy to rock the biggest rooms, stadiums and festivals on the planet.
The video is set in a futuristic world, with dazzling visuals; ever-iconic Skin is bought to life by the power of music under the watchful eyes of computerized masters Morillo and Thoneick.
Erick Morillo & Eddie Thoneick ft. Skin – ‘If This Ain’t Love’ is released on February 14th 2012 on Subliminal Records worldwide.

They just do. Not. Stop. Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike launch straight into 2012 with possibly their biggest track to date, the immense, sweeping, awe-inspiring Momentum, alongside friend and fellow producer Regi.
Like being doused in pure dance floor gold, Momentum rushes across every inch of your body as build-ups of warm, lush instrumental layers saturate your senses from every angle. Synths, guitars, organ chords, swelling crescendos of strings, low, thrumming bass lines – simple yet so majestic and perfectly crafted, the Belgian brethren defy you not to throw your arms in the air and let go of everything you know. Enveloping you in a three-dimensional dynamic of sound, Momentum carries you through a euphoric experience of instinctive production talent.
Momentum is released on February 14th through Smash The House on Beatport. But if you can’t wait till then, put on your headphones, crank up the volume and listen to our exclusive video preview.
