Thirteen (Mod) [CD]

Dissident Music proudly presents Thirteen, a luminous collaboration between two veterans of the U.S. electronic underground: Sandra Collins and Micke. It seems almost pointless to try and cobble together some sort of introduction of Sandra, as few American DJs have been as influential to the development of progressive dance sounds worldwide. She is a foundational artist, widely renowned for her brilliant DJ sets, best-selling mix compilations and trend-setting releases. Micke, now a Dissident veteran, also boasts an impressive history in the underground dance scene, carving his path through the East Coast club circuit, earning residencies at iconic events like Buzz in DC before embarking on his journey as a producer and touring artist. Together, they deliver a track that captures the essence of summer-melodic, uplifting, and undeniably dance floor-ready. Modern and classic and timeless all at once - Thirteen is like a love letter to all those magic end-of-the-set moments we've celebrated through the years. Elevating the release further, Quivver-AKA John Graham, AKA Skanna, Tilt, and Space Manoeuvres (again, is a proper introduction really possible?) offers a remix that seamlessly blends his signature progressive house sound with pure summer fire for 2025. We've been fans for over 25 years and having John on Dissident is a huge honor, to say the least! His remix here shows why so many consider him to be one of the world's best producers of progressive and melodic electronic music. Completing the package, Kaspar Tasane, recently hailed as "one to watch" by Soundgarden resident Gustin, infuses Thirteen with his unique blend of elegance and drive. Drawing from his roots in Tallinn's electronic scene and his experiences performing across the U.S., Kaspar has been bringing the goods on track after track. With support from luminaries like Armin Van Buuren, Paul Oakenfold, and Hernan Cattaneo, Kaspar's musical future is bright, and his remix of Thirteen is no exception! We're beyond excited to bring this long-awaited project to you, and we hope you love it as much as we do!
