The festival season and its associated energy may now be over, but Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings imprint is yet to let the landmark anthems stop flowing. After one of the label’s most prolific summer runs to date, Thomas Gold joins the trail of Revealed’s year of reckoning, making an unprecedented debut for the label after landmark releases for Axtone, Phazing and a whole host of high-caliber labels. As premiered at his titanic Governors Island performance in New York, “Colourblind” reunites the German heavyweight with Australian songstress Kate Elsworth, adding another big room powerhouse to Gold’s sizeable discography. Dropping off the heels of a solid run of instrumental hits for the label, the track sets an impressive precedent for vocal dance music within the modern market. Fusing huge big room energy with yet another unforgettable Elsworth topline, the track shows the lasting stamina of melodic dance music and how Thomas Gold is still pioneering the sound on his own unique merits. When Revealed Recordings lets loose a vocal anthem, it seldom passes quietly. Thomas Gold and Kate Elsworth’s latest is as greater testament to the talented duo as it is to their versatile streak of market dominance here in 2014.
