    Alok‘s CONTROVERSIA imprint has been on fire this summer, and they just dropped not one but two new singles hot off the press. First up is the Dutch producer Thomas Newson, who makes his stellar debut on the label with “Bad Girls.” The single is an upbeat vocal house gem that goes heavy on the groove, perfect for kicking off a fun night out. Following are two talented producers from Alok‘s native BrazilBruno Be, and ÜHÜ, both of whom have released on CONTROVERSIA this year. Their collaboration “Silence” takes a deeper sonic approach with moody melodies and a rolling bassline.
