Trance duo Alex Sonata & TheRio present their fourth official release on Anjunabeats, ‘Cala Luna / The Real Thing’.

Alex Sonata & TheRio will be familiar to dance fans through their output on Enhanced and Armada Music. The duo have been collaborating since 2018, garnering praise from the likes of Gareth Emery, Cosmic Gate and Armin Van Buuren. After many collaborations, the Scottish/Italian pairing decided to make it official in 2020, and Alex Sonata & TheRio was born. 

Following appearances at the official Group Therapy 450 warm-up and afterparties plus our Night Tales London residency, Alex Sonata & TheRio now have two new tracks to share. To celebrate this release, the duo will be streaming from Porto Flavia in Sardinia via the Anjunabeats YouTube and Twitch channels on June 10.

Alex Sonata & TheRio ‘Cala Luna / The Real Thing’ is out now in Anjunabeats.

To Nathan.
This single song will never capture the depths of our brotherhood - I just hope it acts as a bummer to those who think they can live life alone.

Hit "♥" and ↻ repost if you like it!

A remix I wrote for a close friend. It was such an incredible experience watching Thani and the UFO Funk Band record in the studio, and a complete honor I was asked to remix their work. 

I hope you enjoy the different style :)

Thani & UFO - This Darkness (feat. Morgan Wallace) (Taylor Thomas Remix)

An apple a _ay...

さようなら、ｏｌ＿ ｆｒｉｅｎ＿。

(Bonus Track) さようなら、ｏｌ＿ ｆｒｉｅｎ＿。

A song for the new world. 
No human is lesser and wealth is undeserved if it is not shared with a open, loving heart.

Thanks to Snarky Puppy, Michael League, and IndabaMusic for sharing the samples from Snarky Puppy's "Tarova", off their "Culcha Vulva" album - and a huge thank you to Ben Kean from layin' down the killin' solo per usual.


LYRICS
These days, they got me wondrin’
How much of the truth that they’ll be coverin’ up
If we Americans had ‘em suffer and…
Man… if my brethren reduced to some coloring books…
Backhanded compliments seeming a bit racial
but tasteful, under the guise of being playful
Then when do words become painful, even fatal?
Hateful slurs making the community unstable
It’s frightful; seein’ our kids—to our kids—
In the lunchroom no longer sayin’ things like, “Join our table!”
We don’t need another crusade, it’s ignorance
Begins with just a lack of restraint n’ ambivalence
Pickin’ on kids with the strange names
Givin’ ‘em nicknames with a shamin’ flame
Findin’ ‘em flicked in a ditch, nitwits findin’ ‘em inadequate:
pathetic! It’s tragic, innocent witnesses just let it slip
Innocence dropped when measures is drastic, nostalgia
Departure from the Samaritan when we deport ya, 
Then assault ya—world of the alphas
These stanzas is meant to transform our getup, ‘f only a little
What’s the answer?
 
This song won’t fix it, PC won’t rid it
I ain’t tryna pusha viewpoint on ya, so don’t panic
With these lyrics, tryna point out that we’re sick in character
Quick to manic at an unknown language ‘stead o’ talk’n to her;
Lady Wisdom’s got a lot to say before you start a fire, 
but we, “care too much, and don’t think enough”
And it’s said that great men are seldom over-scrupulous…
(sssssss) in the arrangement of their attire,
but I admire a sire that stands by ya, supplies ya
an entire mind of tradition redress
Let’s enrobe our minds in magnificent dress: refresh
New outfit, a habit of unconditional respect
Yes! Only givin’ the best and not keepin’ the rest
from the rest of the world; that’s a wealth unreserved
‘Cause we won’t deserve it if we make ‘em less
Don’t forget—in this life, on this earth—we’re all guests.

These days, they got me wondrin’
All the Pablo’s, the DeShawn’s, the Lebanese, the Syrians,
Demons carry on off-key but their delivery’s good
Don’t wanna go down as the bad guy in future history books
Ugh, lemme tell you something
An empire don’t stand on corpses
We’re supposed be an example
Without true love, we can’t go forward.

LYRICS
Seeing a grave at my feet, as I fall to my knees
Please, change the scene and release me from these…
Chains named inevitability and pain
At first sight, s’not black & white. Is it a waste…
…of time: tryn’ find what the words might convey?
Sometimes feels like your word is a bark/bite play.
Is it worth my light of day? Right away,
fight: betray my kinda way – gimme a sign, okay?

All of this is said and done

Gimme a sign you wanna spend a little time
Do you want me?

I see the same, but I also see a second coloring
Of late, mist’s unseen – true joy’s serene!
Golden streets, planets needing discovering 
Uncovering the galaxy’s greatest cuisine
But your latest routine has fate kiss’n the queen
Every moment fettered seals you into error
It’s better whenever you weather the pressure. Remember:
now or never, we can stand close forever, together.

Face to face
Feel you in my space
and you're pushin' in
You are.

Gimme a sign you wanna spend a little time
Do you want me?

Said & Done

LYRICS
彼女は以前踊った、「もう踊っていないさ」
そして君のオープンな手の陰で
僕は以前うずくまった 

あのね、徹夜していて、
日が差し上るのを見ているのは
最悪の気持ちだ

気楽なキラはキラキラとギラギラする
ええ、僕の尊いキラがキラー
君の「やっぱり」はめっちゃ痛いけど
君をがっかりさせたくないよ

(in English)
She used to dance (not anymore)
And in the shadow of your open arms
I used to cower

you see, being up all night
and seeing the sun rise
is the worst feeling

Carefree Kira dazzles sparklingly
Yeah, my precious Kira is a killer
Your “after all” really hurts, but…
I don’t wanna let you down
