Bondi's finest, Hook N Sling, combines with Sweden's Karin Park for the most eagerly anticipated Axtone release of recent times (possibly ever).

There are certain records in the history of Axtone that have a quick path to release...others that take on a slightly longer journey. It's fair to say 'Tokyo By Night' sits firmly in the latter category, achieving cult status amongst Axtone fans worldwide.
 
Years in the making, the wait has been well worth it; with Axwell's remix leading the charge, proving once again that everyone else is simply following. Having taken on various incarnations in the production stage, one element remained a constant: the beguiling song, written by Hook N Sling and Karin Park.

In Hook N Sling (a.k.a. Anthony Maniscalco ... yes, it's one person!), Axtone welcome an act poised for big things in 2014, with this his first original release on the label after remixing Hard Rock Sofa's underground trailblazer 'Blow Up' back in 2011. Now LA based, Hook is perhaps best known for the singles, 'Take You Higher' with Goodwill, and 'Reason' with NERVO. His recent incendiary collaboration with Empire of the Sun, 'Celebrate', and remixes for Kaskade, Krewella and The Presets have exemplified his own brand of music with dance floor precision, artistic substance and mass appeal.

With Karin, an artist who is certainly ploughing her own path in electronic music with her album 'Highwire Poetry' due for release later this year, they have together crafted a timeless dance floor gem.

Higher Place (Afrojack Extended Remix) OUT NOW on Beatport: http://smarturl.it/HPAfrojackRemix_BP

Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike’s “Higher Place” ft. Ne-Yo was undoubtedly one of the biggest songs of 2015, and made true on the promise of its title by sending its makers to the #1 spot on DJMag’s top 100 list, cementing their position as the current most in demand artists in dance music. So, to sign off on this phenomenal year, electro house hero Afrojack has provided a stellar remix of the inimitable anthem, instilling an arena sized attitude into the already monumental tune. Catch it worldwide from December the 21st.

“Higher Place” has undergone the remix treatment numerous times already this year, with Bassjackers, Regi & Wolfpack, and Andrew Rayel all lending their unique talents to take the song in new directions, but few compare to the stratospheric ambition demonstrated in Afrojack’s effort. Comprised of pulsating beats, ethereal synth melodies and a stadium shaking guitar solo, Afrojack guides “Higher Place” through differing genres, radical ideas and further demonstrates his relentless ambition for greatness that landed him at #8 in this year’s DJmag top 100. 

The combination of Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike and Afrojack is certainly one to be reckoned with, a joining together of three of the most versatile, successful and forward thinking DJs working today - an idea effectively demonstrated in this track. With all three artists experiencing such a massive year, it comes as no surprise that the synergy between them has developed into such a brilliant track.
