Break Through the Silence is the second extended play (EP) by Dutch musician Martin Garrix, versus Matisse & Sadko.[1] It was released on 27 July 2015 by Spinnin' Records.[2]

Background

On 6 July 2015, "Dragon", the first single from Martin Garrix and Matisse & Sadko was released. Performed at several music festivals such as Ultra Music Festival. The video portrays a young female who has been cheated on. After circling a skating rink, the woman skates away from the rink taking alcohol from a liquor store. She then shows off her dance moves to a group of men before stealing their scooter and disappearing into the night. At the end of the video, "To be continued" is posted before fading to black.[3]

Mattise & Sadko wrote "Break Through the Silence" in 2012. In 2015 Martin did an edit of this song. Then it was released as their collaboration with the vocals from Pete Wilde.[citation needed]

Critical reception

Jackie Frere of Billboard states that "What the song lacks in lyrics it makes up in synths and epic bass drops".[3] Scott Lombardo from EDMTunes says "'Break Through The Silence' leans heavily on the epic vocals which start off the preview, but the progressive synths and subtle piano work kick."[4]
