Because Of You

The vocals are just ravishing – Antonia sings but never screams and her voice fits perfectly with the rest of the tune which is brilliantly crafted by David Forbes. Unlike others, this tune doesn’t demand you dance, but rather persuades, cajoles and entices you to the dance floor. Stark example of what both genres – … Continue reading David Forbes feat. Antonia Lucas – Because Of You

Cygnes

Co-produced by Andy Duguid, this track is by far the best productions from Mr Sam. Sam once again proves masterful with his ability to create seemingly simple yet deceptively hypnotic and powerful soundscapes which work as good on the dance floor as they do on your couch.

To Forever

Rachael Starr on production + vocals here delivers an anthem of mammoth proportions. Moonbeam take the tune to a completely different level altogether with their trademark dark progressive and heavy industrial sound. Impeccable stuff guaranteed to take those on the dance floor for another banging trip.

Another Time

I was expecting 18th May of 2008 to be just another Sunday, just when out of nowhere she called me up and asked me to meet up and watch the sunset together. Not knowing what the day could have for me, I switched on the ignition and headed for where she was waiting for someone … Continue reading A/B Project – Another Time (Icone Remix)

People Come, People Go

A very lush and beautiful melody over a hovering bassline that makes for an enjoyable ride – especially early in the morning. Give it a listen and you will realise how easy it is to trigger those endorphins in you.

Undone

Undone is a contrast of emotions, vibes, rhythm, the ups and downs which you confront in the real world. It gives you a moment of happiness and hope that everything will be ready sometime, somewhere. This is just the start for the story. The rest is undone.

Catch A Fall

The best 4 Strings since “Take Me Away”

Does She Know Yet?

Max Graham at his best here with his fantastic production Does She Know Yet? Probably the most exciting progressive tune, this one is straight up from early last year. Contemporary, uplifting and progressive are the tags here. The synth work will trip the shit out of you!

Illumina

A rich atmospheric dark trancer with vapourising female vocals that smoulder with sensual emotions. As the track glides effortlessly along, you’re sure to get a trippy time on those late-night drives in the city. This awe-inspiring track might just be the reason for those goosebumps lately. And yes Maor is only 17.

In & Out

... this track is guaranteed to fill you with optimism

The Sunlight

A melody to kill for. Being anticipated since a long time as one of the biggest tunes of 2007, The Sunlight finally gets its release on Ferry’s Flashover Recordings. Listen to this tune countless times and you still won’t be able to find a single disappointing thing about it; it’s original, powerful, melodic and has that special … Continue reading Breakfast – The Sunlight

Spice Fire

Really hits the spot

A Promise

Perfect chill out track to warm your winter nights

Louder

... the sound and voice of my forever unspoken mind

Another You, Another Me

... hands in the air euphoria

At Night

An awesome Chill Out track whose lyrics completely reflect my persona – “I think I feel much better, at night”. The artist is Shakedown and the track is titled At Night. This is the kind of music you listen to when you just wanna relax on the couch all by yourself on a warm summer … Continue reading Shakedown – At Night (Afterlife Mix)

Cobra

The most intense & emotional melody ever produced, period. This innovative new trance belter happened to be out when I was going through a very special phase in my life. Cobra is melodic trance at it’s finest, flipped by a top-notch remix by First State. A very special one!

More Intensity

The tune takes you to Ibiza and keeps you there

Find

... exciting hands in the air feel

Popcorn

A staggeringly beautiful composition with meticulous attention to detail. When I first heard it, my mind was blown from start to finish. Extremely well-thought out textures and consistent arrangements make this an impeccable production. The thoroughly absorbing and multi-layered sonic atmospheres delve deep into the realms of vividly desolate panoramas. For me this is not only … Continue reading Koruption – Popcorn

Leaving Panic Behind

Having just got hold of Ferry Corsten’s new mix compilation Passport: Kingdom Of The Netherlands, I happened to hear the first track aptly titled Leaving Panic Behind. And what a fantastic piece of music it is. The tune is all over me and it’s just too good. Flash Brothers deliver a monster mix here. If … Continue reading Cassino & Laben – Leaving Panic Behind (Flash Brothers Remix)

Offshore

We were oh so naive and amazingly prone to loving beauty. We never needed the intrusive thickness of a dubstep snare drum. A nice and chilled breakbeat structure would simply do. Startlingly wonderful pads, the distinctive sound of that guitar riff, the longing for sunshine and seascapes, like being between sleep and realness – this … Continue reading Chicane – Offshore (Disco Citizens Remix)

Sound Of Love (Pa Pa Pa)

A hard dance number with sparkling female vocals, this track is rock-solid proof of the emerging commercial dance music scene in Germany. Dreamy, emotive, hard and raw; Sound Of Love is a 10 on 10 dance floor destroyer!

Reaching The Sky

Reaching The Sky is one of my favourite tunes of the year, and quite collectable (don’t let anyone tell you otherwise), particularly if you’re into a strain of contemporary dance music that brushes against academia, post-classical, systems music, and overarching abstraction, sometimes all at once (in a good way). Challenging listening to be sure, but … Continue reading Atomix – Reaching The Sky
