[edit] Endless Summer
Endless Summer was released as the first single of the Siria project. When it was first released to DJ's in December 2004, it introduced the music style that would prove very successful for the Cascada project with Everytime We Touch in 2005. Initially, fans of Cascada assumed that the group had changed their name to Siria due to legal problems with the name Cascada (they had previously been called Cascade until another artist with the same name threatened a lawsuit), though it was soon understood that this was just a side project of Manuel Reuter (DJ Manian) and Natalie Horler, without Yanou.
[edit] I Will Believe It
In early 2005, Siria released "I Will Believe It" on the "Endless Summer/I Will Believe It" 12" single. There are two mixes of the song. The first is a Euro-Trance version, which is similar to DJ Manian and Natalie's other single "Reason" released by another one of their projects, Diamond. The other remix is the "Cascada Remix", which has a darker but similar style to the then-recently released Everytime We Touch. The U.S. release of the single comes with four mixes and is available through Marian Records, Inc.
[edit] Mislabelings
Siria's songs have often been mislabelled as Cascada songs, due to the fact that the styles are very similar, and the vocals are done by the same singer.
[edit] Siria's Future
With the immense success of the Cascada project in the United States, DJ Manian has announced that there are no planned Siria singles in the near future. For the time being, Cascada's similar sounding singles should be sufficient in filling up the absence of new Siria singles. However, "I Will Believe It" is seeing its first official release in the United States through Marian Records, Inc. The single is now available with 4 total mixes in all major retailers.
