Much has changed in the electronic music sphere since Cosmic Gate last minted a ‘Wake Your Mind Sessions’. It’s time in which Nic & Bossi jumped wholeheartedly into the livestreaming space, embracing the medium with a succession of visually captivating sundown shows from rooftops around Miami, NYC, Mexico, Bali and most recently Ibiza. So beloved did they become (New York‘s currently resting a 15 million views!) that fans began clamouring for both cross-platform streaming and a new instalment of ‘Wake Your Mind Sessions’! A natural solution had of course presented itself! Bringing all the auditory thrills of a Cosmic Gate performance direct to all channels, ‘005’ was a go!

So what’s on board!? Well, the double-disc-er is packed with music from the likes of Armin Van Buuren, Joris Voorn, Rivo, Like Mike, MAGNUS, AVIRA, Eelke Kleijn, Klur and many more. Naturally, the mix-comp’s also the foremost platform for studio-hot productions and on ‘005’ Cosmic Gate are all about that! Amongst its thirty-plus tracks are ‘Trifecta’ and ‘Only You’ (with Arnej and Susie Ledge respectively) – new CG anthems just waiting in the wings! You’ll also find box-fresh remix-revisions of recent singles ‘Brave’ and ‘Just The Beginning’, as well as the classic ‘The Drums’. Further in still, you’ll find Wake Your Mind Records premieres aplenty, hot off the desks of Daniel Wanrooy, Noah Shah, Luccio and others.

All this audio coalesces into a dazzlingly-mixed, twin-disc odyssey, that journeys through deep house, tech, tech-trance and melodic techno … and right back out the other side! It’s time for another ‘Sessions’ session, folks and right here’s where you’ll find it!

Disc 1’s opening moments are formed by the stripped back syncopation of Klur’s ‘High Above’, while moody, fused, drum-dramatics from Arnej, Dennis de Laat and Adrian Font, Paige x Jordan Arts latterly keep its temperature gauge equally cool. Vocal numbers are initially sparse, but when deployed, carry all the more punch through their paucity. Case in point Rivo’s heady revision of Armin and Sharon Den Adel’s ‘In And Out Of Love’ and Noah Shah’s equally potent ‘Look For Me’.

Clean, compelling rhythmics continue to forge the mix and it’s not until the likes of Scorz’s rework of ‘Just The Beginning’ and CG’s their most recent single, ‘Only You’ that melodic influences begin working their way in. Catalysed by Luccio’s ‘Unna’ and ‘JOI Part II’ from MAGNUS & Conor Ross, the 2024 remix of ‘Precious Heart’ from Tall Paul brings a fully pumping conclusion to Mix 1.

Opening disc 2 of ‘Wake Your Mind Sessions’ with ‘Eyes Open, Mind Free’ from AVIRA was too good an opportunity for CG to miss – so they didn’t! It steels a Teutonically techno-ish march on the Prydz/Angello riffing ‘Wheel Me Out’ from Ginchy, which in turn opens the door to more mainstage material from Like Mike, Estiva, Daniel Wanrooy and the just-unleashed Sean Tyas’ remix of ‘Blame’.

At the midpoint AVIRA’s back, this time alongside Joris Voorn, with the duo’s take on Eye Q’s classic, ‘The Orange Theme’, while Cosmic Gate gets spacier still with ‘Welcome to Orion’, courtesy of Eelke Kleijn. Maxim Lany views ‘The Drums’ through a techno lens, before Nic & Bossi bring the fifth ‘Sessions’ to a mighty head with their current floor-roar, ‘Trifecta’!

5 years in the waiting, making and cultivating, ‘Sessions 5’ (the 250th album release on Black Hole Recordings!) is out on September 4th. Find it through all good sales and streaming platforms here! [https://cosmicgate.lnk.to/wyms005]
