Break Through the Silence is the second extended play (EP) from Dutch musician Martin Garrix.[1] The work was released on 27 July 2015 via 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.

Critical reception

Jackie Frere of Billboard.com 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]
