"On a night out Clubbing in town the boys are attracted to the Titanic Bar (Ayia Napa) where the crowd are going crazy and the music is being played by DJ Trio-Jet (aged 19).
Conversations are struck up and soon the boys are all together in the DJ box and the late night crowd are now going even more mental.
Trio- Jet is invited to the studio to collaborate on some recording the next day and soon it becomes evident that this is a match made in Heaven (or Cyprus) and they are on the verge of creating a monster hit together.
The result is RAISE YOUR HANDS."
