LA-based trio Cheat Codes is kicking off 2016 with their big room release “Say Goodbye.”

Out now on Thrive Music, “Say Goodbye” is the quintessential progressive house anthem fully equipped with lovesick lyrics and swelling synth builds.

Since forming last summer, Cheat Codes has powered onto the scene at turbo speed. After their breakout collaboration alongside Moguai “Hold On” garnered support from heavyweights like Danny Howard, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Nicky Romero, and Bingo Players, Cheat Codes solidified themselves as promising players in the progressive-pop game.

Their self-released, instrumentally-driven vocal opus “Follow You” has racked up 1.5 million Spotify plays since dropping in November, and most recently the three-piece supported The Chainsmokers on their fall North American tour. Purchase: via Thrive Music
