Compilation features....
I'm happy to announce two huge compilation features this summer. First Judge Jules picked up my track "Sunchaser" for his Ibiza compilation "Judgment Sundays 2008" which contains the biggest tunes on his club nights in "Eden" on Ibiza. This compilation was released last month on the famous imprint "Ministry Of Sound".....
Second feature is the massive German dance album "Dream Dance vol. 48" which is released by the giant Sony BMG. Perfect Blue was the track featured, the compilation sells ten thousands of copies and is also promoted through TV in Germany. Release date is set to the 11th of July.....
Radio show....
On the 9th of July I'm starting my brand new radio show on afterhours.fm called "Threshold" which will be broadcasted every second Wednesday of the month at 10pm CET. The show will be one hour long and feature both upfront tracks, and old gems. Be prepared for a quality mix!....
