Tiësto - Ten Seconds Before Sunrise
as on 17th March, 2007

The God finally makes a major come back with "Ten Seconds Before Sunrise", the epic album opener of his new artist album. From silence a haunting wall of distortion fades in before giving away to a tough, throbbing beat. Glitchy noises, uplifting synths & ethnic vocal samples; all are well placed and well used to maximum effect. Indeed, trance couldn't be much better.

Signalrunners - Aria Epica [Bart Claessen Remix]
as on 20th January, 2007

Presenting the first anthem kick starting the year 2007 with a bang!
"Aria Epica" is the brainchild of Signalrunners and providing the mix here is Bart Claessen. The production is intense with one of the best heard atmospheric sounds which allow for a steady flow of the track. The breakdown adds in the dubbed echo of gorgeous melodies which start to fade in & out holding the track, and then a perfect detuned guitar riff breaks through. Fabulous!
