Award-nominated British producers Dave Whelan and Mike Di Scala, better known as Camelphat, showcase yet more growth since their last album Spiritual Milk that was filled with emotive lyrics, serene ambient sounds, and infectious basslines. This remix album however opens with a Fideles mix that gets drummy and percussive and very reminiscent to Plastikman's legendary "Spastilk". Oostil throws down an EDM inspired tech house banger mix of "In Your Eyes", while Tigerblind looks to old school rave and hardcore in its remix of "Compute". Lastly Dorian Kraft goes deep and progressive in his mix to "Embers". Keep chewing the Camelphat.
It's 2024 which means it's time pay your tributes to the trance Gods once again with some newly re-upped versions of Chicanes all-time classic "Offshore". Unquestionably one the the most important and influential trance productions of all time, this latest addition to the series brings with it an orchestral touch, with, first of all, the 'Symphonic Rehearsal mix' - baroque in its reverberation and as if kissed by some Deep Forest breaks of that French new age '90s sound. Secondly we get a pulsating DC Symphonic Rehearsal mix with its techno beat, progressive bassline and subtle dub tinges for a classical and reduced version that doesn't skimp on the original's divine string section. Such a release wouldn't be replete without the all time, seminal, original either.

Through the exploration of archival sounds, Orchid revives the essence of unadulterated musical expression, urging a return to a time when music was deeply emotive--a testament to passion and enjoyment in an era overshadowed by commercialization.
