You’ve got to be quick to catch Markus Schulz. One minute he’s delivering you a dose of blistering hot tech-trance, the next he’s producing electrifying progressive under his Dakota alias.

Schulz has been on fire with his recent productions, latest track ‘Chinook’ winning rave reviews from all corners. ‘Johnny The Fox’ is the second release from Dakota’s hotly anticipated ‘Thoughts Become Things’ long player – and there’s no other word for it other than ‘killer’.

Relentless and driving from the word go, this is the award-winning Schulz at his very best. Compacted layers of synths and beats fly out of the speakers and onto the dance floor at sonic speed, increasing the energy towards an awe-inspiring, peak-time instrumental breakdown that should have you reaching well beyond the lasers.

Young upstarts Barnes and Heatcliff are bought in by Schulz for remix duty, underlining his personal mission to seek out and support upcoming talent through his own releases. Markus dropped the remix himself at Guvernment back in March and to say the place went through the roof is the understatement of the year. Taking the original progressive elements and threading a more ‘euphoric’ trance feel through them, the boys have come up with a winner all round.

‘Johnny The Fox’ by Dakota is out on June 15th on the Coldharbour Red label exclusively on www.beatport.com. For more information visit www.coldharbourrecordings.com. For all your essential Markus Schulz news, log on to www.markusschulz.com.
