“I had heard a lot about Graham Candy and I knew that he is based in the same city as me, Berlin in Germany. When we were looking for new songs back in summer this year, I received a rough demo of ‘Real Love’ from Graham and I instantly thought – this HAS to be the next Thomas Gold single! So I started working on the production and went back and forth with Graham and his team for some tweaks, after which we got to the final version pretty quickly. I love the vibe of his voice and I wanted to go for a bit of a crossover sound with a bit of a housey vibe and there we are! Graham and I are both really excited for this one to come out!”, Gold says.
Thomas Gold has had a very successful 2018. Having recently shown the masses at Ultra Music Festival, Tomorrowland, Coachella and EDC Las Vegas who’s boss, the pop-dance Svengali accumulated over 50 million streams on Spotify alone with global smash hit “Magic”, strengthened his presence on the airwaves (in the U.S. as well as in the rest of the world) with many infectious singles, and turned heads on tour by bringing his energetic live performance to staple clubs and festival throughout the U.S. and Asia.
ABOUT THOMAS GOLD
Unheard of YouTube views, peppering Beatport’s Top 10, building a rep as a remixer to the stars and delivering stamina-soaked sets from the White Island to Governor’s Island…Thomas Gold has fast become clubbing’s G-force of nature. Since storming onto the scene and riding the crest of dance music’s re-taking over of the planet, the prolifically pedigreed German has emerged as a top shelf seizer of arenas, talked about the world over.
As a spinner with the most well-thumbed of passports, Gold’s upgrading from studio to stage stimulator, including the use of live drum lines and brass sections, has dominated the essentials of must-attend dance parties: the Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival, Coachella, Mysteryland and Tomorrowland.
After setting standards with releases on Armada, Toolroom, Spinnin’, and Steve Angello’s Size, Gold’s consistent hitting of dancefloor jackpots had Miami anthem ‘Sing2Me’, released on Axwell’s Axtone imprint, trilling its way to Beatport’s number one spot and becoming a cornerstone of Gold’s Essential Mix. Turning Adele’s ‘Set Fire to the Rain’ into a YouTube record breaker (like his number of Facebook followers, Gold has set counters to crazy), it stood as the jewel in a remix crown of popstars and peers.
