Review: Hardcore trance heads know where to go when the true trance arrives, and Platipus' Archive 15 has landed. With a shared fidelity all round that does away with the stereo-typical sounds of notebook forest ravers jamming out of their auxiliary cables, beats by Union Jack delivers a hardcore acid sound next to the undeniable 909s and analogue synths of "Imagine". Simon Berry throws down a deep and melancholic number in "Black Rainbow" next to heavier and slow burning sessions by Torsten Fassbender in "Skuchayu" and "The System". And for that real high tempo '90s energy tip, look to a remastered version of Terra Ferma hit "Fire" or a slightly techier remake of Moogwai's "The Labyrinth". Stories upon stories of classic trance ideology.
