Quick to cement their status as favorites in the A State of Trance community, Crowd+Ctrl — lauded trance producer ReOrder and emerging Australian talent Jordan Tobias — fire off their most significant piece of collaborative output yet: 'Smoke & Mirrors'. Drawing from their firsthand experience with the debilitating noise and chaos that casts a shadow on modern times, their debut artist album showcases their musical synergy and innovative sound design across fourteen genre-transcending productions that tap into their unique self-dubbed “uplifting techno” style. With six previously unreleased tracks as well as collaborations with long-established artists such as Ferry Corsten, Super8 & Tab and Ruben de Ronde, 'Smoke & Mirrors' fearlessly explores the darker aspects of life in search of solace and purpose. It's a leap forward on both a personal and an artistic level, and one of such musical significance it will pave the way for the duo to leave their indelible mark on the world of electronic music for years to come.
