Review: Denmark's number 1 trance export is one busy man, having just mixed the latest Anjunabeats Worldwide compilation and launched a new label 'AlwaysAlive' under the Enhanced banner. His latest single lands on the groups main label and acts as the follow-up to last years 'Sticks & Stones' alongside fellow Dane Philip Alpha. Built around monstrously big riffs that we have all come to expect and love... there's no questions why this man is rapidly climbing the likes of DJ Mag's Top100 poll. As if the Original wasn't enough, Willem De Roo lays down a killer shuffly prog mix for groovier climbs.
Review: RMXD is Armando 'Alpha 606' Martinez' second release on Interdimensional Transmissions and is the rather tardy follow up to 2008's Electronica Afro-Cubano. Flanked by high-profile remixers, Martinez does well to impress with "808 Trax". A linear drum track takes a ride through an inner city at night, the screeches, groans and howls of its nocturnal population kept under the surface by steely claps. Label owner BMG's take on "Armambo" is similarly inclined, this time with spacey undercurrents fusing with tight 808s. Erika's version of "We Leave Tonight" is a more understated deep techno track, while at the other end of the spectrum, Anthony Shakir turns "808 Trax" into a full-on, drum-heavy techno track that is more complex than a spaghetti junction at rush hour.
