Remix NERVO & Hook N Sling's 'Reason'
THE BRIEF
When news broke that dance music’s most beautiful twins, NERVO were teaming up with fellow Aussie wunderkind Hook N Sling for a new track, people knew to brace themselves: a dancefloor anthem was on the rise.
Rife with emotive yet determined energy and soaked in that signature Hook N Sling charm, ‘Reason’ sets the tone ahead of an onslaught of vocal NERVO cuts.
In celebration of the release of their first single together, NERVO and Hook N Sling are inviting aspiring producers and DJs to submit their best remixes of ‘Reason’ for the opportunity to have it premiered on Spinnin' Records YouTube Channel.
ABOUT HOOK N SLING
What do Swedish House Mafia, Tiësto, Guetta, Kaskade, Oakenfold & Morillo have in common? They all love private jets and Hook N Sling. There is no denying that the eyes and ears of the world’s dance music fraternity are focused firmly on Hook N Sling in 2012. In just a few short years the man has gone from aspiring disc jockey to in-demand DJ, remixer and producer property. So what would one see watching the one to watch of late? A Hype Machine #1, gold-certified Belgian Top 5 and 6m+ YouTube views for his recent goosebump-inducing offering, “Take You Higher” (with Goodwill), his DMC Miami Buzz Chart-ing and Beatport Progressive top 10 single featuring Evermore, “Surrender” in July, and his #2 Beatport charting collaboration with the NERVO girls titled “Reason”, out now.
