With 15 years as a DJ/Producer, Bodo Kaiser has played a key role in reviving the Swiss trance scene by creating event labels and bringing renowned artists to the country and earning support from top names like Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk and Above & Beyond. Bodo delivers everything from smooth progressive beats to darker sounds and he made a significant impact in the Polish and German club scenes with his rework of Mr. Philipps' "7th Day," reaching #8 on Trackitdown in 2010. His 2012 track "Caravan," featuring Sheri Pedigo, hit #25 on the same chart. His first release under his real name, "Beautiful Day," reached the Beatport Top 10 and was chosen as Abercrombie & Fitch's theme song for their Hong Kong flagship store opening. After returning in 2015 with a mix compilation and a rework of "Beautiful Day," Bodo collaborated with Ron van den Beuken in 2016 on "Rising Flute," which hit #5 on Beatport. This was followed by a breakthrough in 2017 when his EP reached the Top 10 and his tracks "Borderline" and "Vimana" gained support from top DJs like Above & Beyond and Giuseppe Ottaviani. 2 years later Bodo’s track "Tokyo" was voted Tune of the Week by listeners on Corsten's Countdown Radio Show.
With over twenty years in the music industry, singer-songwriter Sarah Howells has channeled her passion into her solo project, Bryde, which she started eight years ago. Howells formed her first band, JYLT, at age 10, later leading the main musical project, a band Paper Aeroplanes with Richard Llewellyn, whose 2015 album JOY was nominated for the Welsh Music Prize. For electronic music enthusiasts, Sarah Howells made her mark in the dance scene when DJ Lange featured her on the trance hit "Out of the Sky." She later teamed up with John O'Callaghan on the iconic track "Find Yourself," which has become a trance classic with over 27 million Spotify streams today! Since 2009, Sarah Howells has been delivering standout trance tracks and remains a key figure in the genre.
Black Hole Recordings is no stranger to Sarah Howells, but for Bodo Kaiser this collaboration marks his debut on the iconic label. The collaboration with Sarah Howells began when her manager contacted Bodo, who initially felt too busy to respond while finishing his album. Bodo returned to Sarah's demos weeks later and was instantly intrigued. He set his album aside to focus on the project, drawing inspiration from her fresh perspective. With support from his friend Rob on vocal production they polished “See For Miles”, seamlessly merging Sarah’s stunning vocals with Bodo’s studio prowess. Summer isn't over yet, and this track is sure to keep you dancing for months. It's available now on all streaming platforms—go give it a listen!
