Larrakin’s Breaking Love is a summer scorcher that is destined to catapult into a massive airwave and dancefloor smash! Already blowing up in Europe this package contains a mix style for every DJ and dancefloor. The Original is a bouncy electronica house anthem fused with catchy and seductive lyrics whilst on the remixes we have reworks by Zoutman who twists the track up to great effect and delivers a late nite session anthem.

Also on the package we have UWE Taubert injecting this into full frontal action. Next up we have the Subgroover also taking down the single on a more electrified late night set anthem. For more euphoric progressive minded we have the Meizo and Lenny Verro mixes and finally Koishii & Hush opting for the more trancier clubbier sound. Produced by Dutch duo Bob Sandee (aka Subgroover) & Brane Kovak (Brane Music) who bought hits by artists such as Central Seven, Crew 7, Topmodelz, and Kim Leoni to name a few.

The track is available to buy here or visit http://www.hibias.com for more information.
