“Flute” – New World Sound & Thomas Newson
A 50-second preview was unveiled prior to the official release hyping the video as a tantalising teaser for the track, which already hit #1 in the ADE Buzz Chart. The ID left everybody under the impression it was a new collab from W&W and Blasterjaxx. Originally keeping the artists a secret Spinnin’ revealed genius behind the track was New World Sound and Thomas Newson.

“G.I.P.S.Y.” – Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike vs Boostedkids
Only 1 week after winning the Beatport award for “Artist of the Year” and “Single of the Year” with the monstrous release of ‘Mammoth’, the Belgian superstar DJ’s Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike teamed up with upcoming Italian duo Boostedkids to introduce ‘G.I.P.S.Y.’.

There was absolutely no let up in the tempo coming from Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. After a sensational five Beatport #1’s in 2013 alone, the Belgian superstars got ready to let rip it up with their latest hit single ‘Stampede’.

“Pallaroid” – Thomas Newson
Already racking a considerable output of cutting edge newcomers, Revealed Recordings had another secret weapon up its sleeve for 2013.
