In January, the group released its fourth album, Common Ground, which was received by open arms by fans worldwide.

     

    With faster internet connectivity, their radio show “Trance Around the World” could reach the whole world on their own terms. On 2012, they reached 30 million listeners. Every week. As their sound began to adapt to the arenas they already filled, the shows also grew to unmanageable monsters. In 2007, they ruled what might have been the world’s largest outdoor festival ever, at Barra Beach in Rio De Janerio, with an estimated one million participants. The new Common Ground album was ranked third in the American billboards, making the release of their most successful set of list placements so far.
