Tritonal acquired Enhanced Music in 2013. They had many vital works on Enhanced, but the critically acclaimed Metamorphic EP trilogy may be the most important. Metamorphic featured fan favorites, ‘Follow Me Home’ and ‘Now or Never.’

‘Now or Never’ broke into the top five on Billboard’s Airplay Dance Chart. Three other tracks, ‘Anchor,’ ‘Colors,’ and ‘Untouchable’ also charted in the top 5.

Tritonal’s connection with their fans has ensured that their music resonates with them, whether musical purists or mass crowds. Their successful formula has three components:

  1. compelling songwriting
  2. innovative productions
  3. exuberant performances

With every release, Tritonal transcends their previous works. In March 2013, they released their EP Metamorphic I, which included the progressive house tracks, ‘Bullet That Saved Me,’ ‘Bring Me Home,’ and ‘Deep Into Black.’ In May 2013, Tritonal announced the Metamorphic Tour phase 1 dates.

Emotional Dance Music Duo Kyau and Albert

Emotional dance music duo Kyau and Albert formed their partnership in 1996. Ralph Kyau started his electronic music career in 1990 spinning his tracks in underground techno parties. He released his first album, ‘Modulation Experiments’ in 1993. Ralph founded Harmony Recordings record label in 1994 with DJ Shandy. Their first signed artist was Mirco de Govia. As a result, Ralph met Steven, who was also experimenting with electronic music production.

Through 1995, they realized they both had similar interests in music and went on to perform live as a duo. These live performances naturally led them to form ‘Kyau vs. Albert’ in 1996. They released their first single, ‘Let Me In.’

By March 1997, they combined their studios and formed the record label ‘Euphonic.’ Ronski Speed and Sonorous were their first signed artists.

They continued producing music and performing live which built their foundation in their native Germany. Their work caught the attention of Paul van Dyk who invited them for an interview on his radio show in 2001. The increased exposure led to more of their music charting and to even more performances.

In 2006, they modified their name to ‘Kyau and Albert.’ The name change did not adversely affect them. In 2007, Euphonic celebrated its Tenth Anniversary.

They released the romantic album, ‘Nights Awake’ on February 25, 2013. One fan described the album as

very romantic, optimistic and full of life

Kyau & Albert promoted the album with their Nights Awake Tour, which landed in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on August 2, 2013.

Miami DJ Louis Dee

Miami DJ Louis Dee is a staple in the Miami house music club scene. Through hard work and dedication, he has become one of the most sought-after house music DJs in South Beach. He established his reputation in 1999 at Tantra’s sexy Monday night parties. He went on to spin at Mokai, Pink Room, Bamboo, SET, Dream, Aero Bar, Spaziohero, Voyage, Level, Crobar, Karu & Y, Eden Terrace at Nocturnal, and the Shore Club.

Born in Queens, New York, Louis was exposed to the birth of hip-hop and house music in the ’80s in his teenage years. He honed his DJ craft in high school, practicing on turntables, building his playlists, and refining his techniques. During his education, he realized his passion was house music. As a result of the epiphany, he focused his energies on electronic music. He went on to opening sets at Chaos for Sweet Peach and Stephan Luke. He later moved to Miami where, as they say, the rest is history.

Louis still returns to his home New York to spin at Pink Elephant, Guest House, and Body. He even makes his way to the Century Room in Toronto, and Petra in Mexico City. He’s brought house music to Tokyo and Aruba too.
