Lane 8 – Hold On feat. Fractures (Ben Böhmer Remix)

Lane 8’s Little By Little full length LP was released in January of 2018, merging the worlds of electronica, house and progressive into one super-genre. Named DJ Mag North America’s album of the year and praised by Forbes, Billboard, MIXMAG, 303 Magazine, CBS, October and more, Little By Little was not only a monumental step for Daniel Goldstein, but also the electronic community as a whole.

Now, almost seven months later, the LP is graced with a full remix pack featuring re-works from some of the most classical artists in the genre to some of its newest faces. Today, Ben Böhmer’s remix is released into the world. Tipping its hat to the most classical electronica like Boards of Canada and more, the remix is nostalgic and refreshing at the same time. Böhmer masterfully navigates around Fractures’ vocals sculpting out a rework that breathes new air into the single.

Notable remixes from the iconic Dirty South and the talented Tinlicker act as flagship edits while also providing a platform for up and comers like label-signees Anderholm, Avoure and Khaen.

2018 saw Lane 8 sell out San Francisco’s Warfield Theatre, Los Angeles’ Novo, Brooklyn Steel, London’s Phonox, and Amsterdam’s Melkweg among others. Goldstein now finds himself in the midst of Phase II of his Little By Little album tour, hitting secondary targets and taking his This Never Happened show concept far and wide.

As Goldstein prepares to unveil the next steps of his artistic journey, he handed the torch to some of electronica’s greatest to help propel the vision of Little By Little even further. With a — foundation and remixes from some of the greatest in the game, all signs point towards Little By Little Remixed being one of the most successful dance records of the year.

The first few months of 2016 have been an extremely productive time in the studio for me. after an exhausting year of the most intense touring i’ve ever done, i came home with a lot of new ideas and inspiration and finally had the time to sit and write and translate all the energy i had into actual music. i’m really proud of everything that came out of those sessions, and i can’t wait for you guys to hear it all. today, i’m really happy to share one of those new pieces, a remix I made for Icarus and AURORA’s beautiful song ‘Home’“. – Lane 8

Lane8PressPic2014small

Here’s the title track of Lane 8’s upcoming Suara EP, called “Midnight”.

Although Daniel Goldstein has been releasing most of his music on Anjunadeep thus far, he’s moving towards a more instrumental, clubby sound in his productions as of late and as such, his new EP is landing on Coyu’s Suara.

The title track is a long instrumental based around a very simple piano sequence. He first started jamming around with this idea back in March 2015 and fine-tuned it over the rest of last year. Out on January 18.

maribou

UK duo Chris Davids and Liam Ivory aka Maribou State released their debut album ‘Portraits’ earlier this summer to widespread international acclaim. Also fresh from a debut album is Anjunadeep’s Daniel Goldstein, better known as Lane 8, whose own album ‘Rise’ was “packed full of beautiful melodies and left-field pop moments” (Mixmag).

After hearing and falling in love with ‘Wallflower’, Daniel got in touch with Maribou State and asked to remix it – and here we present the result, a rolling dancefloor juggernaut layered with anthemic vocals, mournful strings and rumbling brass, rounded off with a huge low end groove.
