UPFRONTBEATS

It was 20 years ago today (near enough) that SONO tore up the clubs with their über-hit KEEP CONTROL. With a glorious sense of timing, the electro-pop giants from Hamburg are back with a fantastic remix to mark the anniversary of the track’s #1 success on the Billboard Dance Charts.

The globally-renowned Ukrainian DJ and producer duo ARTBAT have done the honours this time around, boasting support from such DJ legends as Solomun, Tale Of Us, Pete Tong and Richie Hawtin, who regularly feature ARTBAT productions in their sets.

ARTBAT dominated 2019 on all fronts, and head into 2020 as one of the most exciting acts in house & techno. They were the highest selling artists on Beatport for the whole of last year, were Mixmag Stars for 2019, and recorded their debut Essential Mix for the legendary BBC Radio 1 in July. They also played live on Cercle at the top of Sugar Loaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro, with more than 5 million people having watched so far. All this means ARTBAT has become a synonym for driving, powerful and melodic techno.

Sono ‘ Keep Control (ARTBAT Remix) is out on 17.01.2020 through Kontor Records – stream, download & vinyl.
