D:Fuse and Mike Hiratzka tea m up to bring you Skyline Lounge – the first release on their new Lost Angeles Recordings label. A combination of electronic pop, smooth house music and downtempo rhythms, Skyline Lounge is a song-based album that transcends the transient nature of most club music.
Skyline Lounge is a project that came about with D:Fuse and Hiratzka’s desire to get out from under the strict confines of dance tracks and to move into more traditional song writing and production. “When we started writing the album we didn't put terms on anything. We just wrote and performed what sounded good to us; whether that be virtual synths or live instrumentation via drums, guitar, bass, or vocals. After a few songs we realized everything had a cohesive feel. To us it felt like a city rooftop at night. The energy of the city combined with the beauty of a skyline. That's where Skyline Lounge and the subsequent cover concept came from. Skyline Lounge also features a number of talented vocalists including DJ Rap (“The Power Of Love”), Delerium collaborator Kristy Thirsk (“Overkill”), Ceci Castelblanco (Perfection”), MC Flint (“Love it, Live It”) and Angel-A (“Breathe In”); and violinist Govinda (“I See Light.”)
