Hard Rock Sofa’s anthem “Rasputin” turns 4 years old

One of Axtone‘s most prominent offerings in history has come from former Russian powerduo Hard Rock Sofa, with the absolute groundbreaking release titled ‘ Rasputin’. The duo and its two members have come a long way so far, separating amicably to continue on with each of their solo projects. Former member Alexander now continues on under the name Shapov, while Denis currently maintains the long legacy of the Hard Rock Sofa name.

Tinged with electrifying acid synths, a spine-tingling melody, and possibly one of the most energetic buildups in dance music history, ‘Rasputin’ pays tribute to Grigori Rasputin, a historic Russian mystic, and likewise captivates every single listener by its spell.

The brilliant single has just celebrated its fourth anniversary, after being resident in countless DJ sets across the world, including some of the most revered acts such as the Swedish House Mafia, Sander van Doorn, and Alesso.

Pay tribute to one of house music’s most mystical tracks below and brace yourself for the epic nostalgia that comes along with it.
