Emerging from relative obscurity in early 2007, in just a few short years Tritonal has become one of the most recognisable names on the modern trance and progressive world stage. Both exceptional talents in their own right, Chad Cisneros and Dave Reed formed a prolific music production partnership from opposite ends of the United States which exceeded all expectations and proved to be a creative match made in heaven.
Very few EDM artists today could lay claim to the kind of whirlwind success Tritonal has enjoyed since its inception. Within the very first year of united production, Tritonal’s remixes and original tracks were being pored over and supported by some of the most renowned and respected DJs in the world. Just three years later, the duo have released in excess of 100 original productions and remixes on labels such as Above & Beyond’s Anjunabeats, Ferry Corsten’s Flashover Recordings and Armin van Buuren’s Armada, as well as Enhanced and their new Enhanced sublabel Air Up There Recordings. In doing so they’ve cemented their position as America’s leading trance duo, and subsequently rocked Americas leading events – Electric Daisy Carnival, Spring Love Festival and Ultra Music Festival as well as touring the world with their Tritonal sound.
Piercing The Quiet is the culmination of two years of intense studio work, seeing Tritonal push their sound to the next level and the results are absolutely stunning.
Opening with the film score styled Poem Of Angels, it becomes instantly apparent that this is an album that will stand head and shoulders above the majority of trance long players. Songwriting being a key factor that has separated Tritonal from the masses, the duo have teamed up with long term release partner Cristina Soto to craft three new originals including the beautiful downtempo offerings “Everafter” and “Still With Me”, as well as a stunning update their breakthrough record “Piercing Quiet”. Further collaborations see Winter Kill’s singer Meredith Call on the gorgeous “Broken Down”, Fisher with the upbeat “Slave”, and relative newcomers Jeza, Jenry R and Bethany all providing outstanding performances to make this an album packed with memorable lyrics throughout, whilst peak time trancers in the form of “Ziziki”, “Retake” and “Murakami” will no doubt be ripping the roofs off nightclubs and festivals all summer long.
Released later this spring, the first single from the album “Lifted feat. Cristina Soto” will be released on February 14th at Beatport, complete with Club and Mat Zo mixes. (February 28th at all other stores).
Full track list and “Lifted feat. Cristina Soto” samples will be released next week.

I can tell they wrote this description. Its funny how full of themselves they sound when they write but they are actually nice guys in real life.
That being said, I may check this out, I personally think alot of their productions are good for uplifting trance (minus the vocals). Ive seen them live and they were pretty good (minus the vocals) as well.

The description is written by the label and not the boys. :)
Anyway, it's great to see and hear that people always speak so positively about their live performances. They seem to be quite extraordinary when it comes to interacting with the crowd and bringing some proper energy from the stage.
I'm personally very impressed with how they have moved since their debut in 2007 in terms of songwriting but even moreso in terms of understanding production and sound design.
I hope you'll find a few tunes on the album that will be fit to your liking.

Haha, it must always be the same label guys then :D never the less I have always found it funny and almost comic, but it got the point across well.
Yeah, they definitely come a long way since 07. Back then seeing them live was what first got me into trance :)
