Review: This tasty collaboration has been on the cards for some time, following the massive success of 'Must Be Love' (where the pair were joined by BT, and Nadia Ali). With one of the scenes hottest and most promising names joins forces with the undisputed king of trance, the result was always going to be massive, and this is everything we could have hoped for. There is a real elegance and sophistication about 'Nehalennia' with the pair holding back on the obvious and keeping the focus on both beauty, and warmth. The production is punchy and everything from the bubbling melodies to the whispering vocal effects are finely tuned and instantly memorable. All elements build to that magical moment at the breakdown.. The first of many these two, we hope.
Review: The biggest trance DJ in the world drops his latest mega single on his own Armada label. Lifted from his latest artist album 'Mirage' and featuring Adam Young of Owl City fame. 'Youtupia' is one of Armin's more commercial releases, clearly with radio play and crossover potential in mind. That's not to say it wont work in the clubs, as his finely tuned production and soaring melodies still shine bright. An impressive remix package comes from Michael Woods, Blake Jarrell, and Tocadisco.. Something for everyone!!
Review: It has been two years in the making, but the wait is very almost over as on the dawn of releasing his fifth studio album 'Intense', Armin presents the first single to be lifted from it. With an instant "Essential New Tune" on Pete Tongs radio show (no mean feat for a trance artist), if this is anything to go by, his sound is taking a housier direction. With a strong a radio friendly vocal at the forefront, coming from the brilliant Trevor Guthrie who's tone and delivery take this skyward. Where the Original has crossover in mind, the monstrous remix from golden boys W&W certainly doesn't.. its an outright bass heavy assault on the senses, made to destroy all in its path. There's also; Antillas & Dankann, Giuseppe Ottaviani, and some guy called David Guetta providing remixes... You don't need to be told, this is essential!
