Over the last 10 years Craig Connelly has firmly established his place amongst the Trance Elite. Three #1 selling albums including his latest Believe In Magic which turned into a global TRILOGY tour playing the best music from his repertoire to date, already selling out Exchange LA with the concept earlier in the year. 

The increase in Craig’s popularity has been reflected in his touring schedule as this year he is set to perform at some of the worlds biggest clubs and festivals including, Creamfields, Dreamstate SoCal, A State of Trance, Subculture Melbourne, Untold Festival and more.

The last eleven years in music production have been prolific to say the least for Craig Connelly, with 40+ Beatport Top 10 selling Trance productions to date including eleven number 1’s and remixes for Armin van Buuren, Gareth Emery, Ferry Corsten, Lange, Andy Moor, John O’Callaghan and Aly & Fila to top it all off and his Roxanne Emery collaboration ‘This Life’ adding to rotation on Sirius XM’s BPM channel, the biggest dance music station in North America

His #1 selling artist album ‘A Sharper Edge’ has featured some of 2020’s biggest Trance Records. So much so, he was the #7 most played artist on A State of Trance radio last year with Time Machine & All For Love  featuring in the ASOT Top 100. 

In 2021 Craig has continued where he left off last year. His own label imprint Higher Forces has returned with releases Don’t Panic and most recently a Beatport #1 and early front runner for Tune of the Year, Keep Me Believing with Megan McDuffee. 

His vocal collaboration with Christina Novelli ‘Black Hole’ hit number 1 on Beatport in just two days, was also voted by ASOT Radio show as the forth biggest track of the year and the official music video has over 15 million views on YouTube to date.

Welcome to the world of Symphonix! Music that still deserves to be called true Progressive Trance, featuring sea-deep atmospheres and heaps
of psychedelic stimulants but still being tidied up, laid back in terms of speed and kind of
“grown up” in its character. Grown up not without reason: The sound of Symphonix refers to
the producer’s large background in the Progressive Trance scene which reaches back to the
origin of this style in the late nineties. Starting with DJing under the moniker Montagu & Golkonda
and promoting their first Tshitraka parties back then, brothers Stephan und Sirko Wötanowski
rapidly became an essential ingredient of the young and blooming Progressive Trance scene.

Inspired by their numerous travels to the coloured dance floors of this planet they soon felt the
wish to express their deep passion for this music and its wonderful scene and people also in
the language of their own music. After making various nights of it in the studio and some
adventurous experiments in the sound laboratory in 2003 the first solid track with a forcing
bass line, exciting rhythm patterns and playful melodies grooved from the speakers:
Symphonix was born! Due to the mentioned long-year experience already the first tracks
distinguished them selves by a very high sophistication and professionalism and so it’s not
really a wonder that this live act got rapidly established as a reliable source for dance floor
euphoria and was invited to many parties and gathering around the globe.

While nowadays most of the classical Progressive Trance producers flirt with the ideas of
modern club music, Symphonix keep these experiments for their other project True Lies and
stay true to the original idea of this style. So their sound will send you to the deep spheres
of Trance and take you to these certain parallel dimensions that can be especially experienced
on the dance floor of a terrific festival while the sun is rising or during a warm, shiny day with
your friends at some outdoor event. Though very deep and mystic, their sound always keeps
a positive feeling that will produce a smile on your face by magic. Symphonix will keep up the
banner of Progressive Trance and remain a tried and tested name for lovers of this style!
