With its third official release, The QR Network continues to define its place in the dance music landscape — this time with a heartfelt homage to the golden era of festival progressive. Out today, “Be My Love” is the latest offering from Pastland, produced by none other than Skytech and rising German talent TBR.
The track marks a return to the euphoric, melody-first sound that dominated stages during the 2010s, echoing the anthemic energy of Skytech’s landmark collaborations like “Tiger” with R3HAB & Fafaq, “Pillowfight” with Bassjackers, and “Kundalini” with Headhunterz — all staples of the Spinnin’ Records legacy. “Be My Love” channels that same spirit: soaring leads, festival-grade drops, and a nostalgic emotional pull, all packaged with modern production finesse. “Our goal with Pastland is to rekindle the atmosphere of classic festival moments and pair it with forward-thinking production,” says Christopher Lao, founder of The QR Network. “Skytech’s signature progressive flair, complemented by TBR’s youthful drive, made ‘Be My Love’ the perfect bridge between nostalgia and what’s next.”
While Skytech’s influence in the progressive and mainstage space is well-established, TBR represents a new wave of producers paying homage to the genre’s roots while pushing it forward. Already gaining attention for his precision and style, TBR’s releases on labels like Revealed Recordings and Rave Culture have caught the attention of big names, and his technical focus is no accident. In a 2018 interview, he explained:
“My DAW of choice is FL Studio. It is very easy to learn and never runs out of surprises. The one thing I could recommend for new producers is to spend as much time as possible working in FL Studio so that you can really master it.” “Be My Love” is a natural evolution for both Pastland and The QR Network. With a focus on melody, arrangement, and emotional storytelling through sound, it captures the heart of what big room and progressive house stood for — and what it can be again. This release also serves as a lead-in to the label’s upcoming single with SaberZ, due June 27, 2025, which will shift gears back into high-octane big room territory. Together, these releases reflect the label’s mission to showcase creativity from both rising names and industry veterans who helped build the genre’s foundation. “Be My Love” is now available on all major streaming platforms. Whether you're a longtime fan of Skytech's festival catalog or new to the sound Pastland is shaping, this track is a must-listen for summer 2025.
