Their Group Therapy Weekender London festival takes place at Dockyards London in September, with a sold-out Los Angeles show to mark Group Therapy 500 and appearances at Creamfields, EDC Orlando, EH1 Festival, and more also in the diary. Marty’s tones fit the track perfectly, reminding us that a step into the unknown, might just be putting your best foot forward.” – Above & Beyond Above & Beyond’s extensive touring schedule rolls throughout summer 2022 and into autumn. With the uncertainty of the last few years, it reared its head again and ‘Chains’ was born. “‘Jump and the net will appear,’ a fleeting remark from a colleague of Tony’s at Warner Records has always percolated during songwriting. The Sunderland singer-songwriter is the voice of Above & Beyond’s ‘Tightrope’, ‘Flying By Candlelight’ and ‘Gratitude’. The song accompanies the opening credits to the sleeper hit Netflix documentary, ’Sunderland ’Till I Die’. More commonly found performing under the moniker The Lake Poets, Marty Longstaff rose to prominence with the moving acoustic ballad ‘Shipyards’. ‘Chains’ was one of two Above & Beyond original productions to appear on their Anjunabeats Volume 16 compilation, alongside ‘Projection’.

Further, ‘Blame’s official music video won’t be far behind and there are already rumblings that a full re-airing of the Miami Open Skies set will take place in the (none too distant!) future. Now, if you’re licking a mental wound over a miss of the Miami Open Skies events, hey, all’s not lost! Featuring a rather special guest dropping by, the show’s aftermovie has gone online, and is accessible through Cosmic Gate’s YouTube. With ‘Blame’ as its lead single and an eye on an early summer release, ‘MOSAIIK’ – their eleventh long-player – will bring even more ‘forward ever backward never’ to our Cosmic cosmos.
‘Blame’ wasn’t the only unboxing Nic & Bossi did during the Miami’s Open Skies show, with an end-of-set reveal that a new Cosmic Gate album was in the advanced stages of production. I can’t wait to share it with the world!” They’ve produced an amazing deep sound that truly reflects the mood of our times. I’m so happy this song has landed with Cosmic Gate. We endlessly spin in this social media “mill” and it’s so hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. It’s a sad situation, but I always ask myself: do we really need what we want, as nowadays others influence most of our desires.
On the striking lyrics that lie at the heart of ‘Blame’s story, Diana Miro said: “I wrote this song when one of my friends was struggling with plans – again – not coming to life. Marked out with dramatically drawn strings, pulsing percs, twisted synths and sub-bass-boom, over seven mood-brooding minutes, the track moves emotively from simmer to sear. Given lyrical & vocal smoulder by singer/songwriter Diana Miro, it finds Nic & Bossi bringing music with a more introspective edge. A CD edition set will follow with the release of the upcoming MOSAIIK Chapter 2.Premiered during their Miami Open Skies livestream last weekend, GRAMMY-nominated electronic music act Cosmic Gate’s first 2021 single arrives on streaming platforms and stores today.

Spanning nine dynamic tracks, MOSAIIK Chapter One includes the recent releases, “Blame” featuring the soulful vocals of Diana Miro, and “ Feel It” a club-focused dance release reverberating raw emotion.
