I am trying to download the original mix of the hardstyle song named 'Vast Duality - United Again' which is the 2017 Sound of the Harder Stylez Anthem. The problem is even though it can be found on Spotify, it cannot be played for reasons which aren't clear to me (copyright issues?). I tried contacting the artist duo on Facebook and through EMail about the Spotify thing yet none of them have responded. Furthermore I cannot find the original mix anywhere else on the internet except a short rip off for HardstyleDNA's official YouTube channel.
I tried using VPN to fool Spotify of my Geo-location, switching between 15 different countries around the globe yet without success, including Norway (Home of Hardstyle DNA), Denmark and the Netherlands. Then I tried doing the same again but this time directly using zotify instead of my browser but unfortunately with no success.
I remember when this song first came out in 2017 it was playable alright through Spotify and specifically for this song I recorded my system audio using Audacity to rip better audio quality than ripping off YouTube haha. And yeah back then YouTube had many people uploading this song but those are all gone now (*Copyright fear intensifies*). Later I lost the audio file and was never able to recover it.

Finally, my hope is that some of you who read this know where to get the original mix. Either way, hope you have a great day and happy producing!

they have a lot of other music on spotify which have links you can click normally. They also have a soundcloud with lots of tracks and it isn't on there either. You could maybe find a copy using Slsk, if anywhere.

 

From what you say, perhaps there's a copyright infringement challenge on 'United Again' and, pending its satisfaction, Spotify can neither stream it and Vast Duality cannot discuss it?
