After celebrating two decades at the very heart of the trance scene with their XX anniversary project, Super8 & Tab return with a fresh collaborative statement that feels both timeless and perfectly tuned for today’s floors. Teaming up with rising talent Awakend and vocalist Cartouche, Real lands on Flashover Recordings as a pristine, high-energy vocal trance gem.
Built around warm, uplifting piano chords and a driving yet elegant 128 bpm groove, Real instantly radiates that unmistakable Super8 & Tab euphoria. The production is clean and expansive, letting Cartouche’s soaring vocal sit front and center, delivering a sense of optimism that feels tailor-made for sun-drenched mainstages and hands-in-the-air moments. Awakend’s touch adds a modern polish, bridging classic trance emotion with contemporary clarity and punch.
There’s a confident simplicity to Real: no overcomplication, no unnecessary twists—just pure, honest trance energy executed by artists who know exactly how to make a crowd feel something. It’s the kind of track that reminds you why melodic uplift still matters, especially when delivered with this level of craftsmanship.
