What an incredible treat
we are getting from VISION SOUNDCARRIERS
with their newest offering from TRANCEMASTER
series. If you are into big room majestic TRANCE
sound you are about to explode. This one will blow your mind. Guaranteed!
When I got this double CD compilation, I already felt the chills of excitement.
The feeling that is always with me when I check each and every release
from this series. "Trancemaster 3008"
is one of the best TRANCE compilations that
are on the market right now and one of the best in this series. 22 full
length tunes on both CDs bring you the sound that touches every sense
of your body, delivers riveting layers of synth work and electrifying
electronica at it's best. It was a real pleasure for me to prepare the
sound sampler from this release in which I have put 12 tunes from both
CDs. Quite long sampler lasting almost 16 minutes, but I wanted to give
you as much sample possible to understand what kind of experience you
are getting. Among highlights of the first CD are "Moondust"
by JACOB & MENDEZ (brilliant majestic TRANCE
production with beautifully done bottom and textured to pefection melodic
line), "Storm Of Trance" by LOST
ANGELS (it starts rather generic, but blooms into magnificent TRANCE
club stormer), "Mind Yourself"
by CETROIT (an OPERA TRANCE with rich,
killer synths that are driving this fare to higher heights. Glorious throughout.),
"Nebuchan" by FRANK T.R.A.X.
(yet another glorious club TRANCE fare. The
beginning of the tune does not give you even slight idea what you will
be experiencing, but while it progresses, it unveils the true face) or
"Oriental Express" by STARSHINE
(starts as TECHNO/TRANCE fare in IBIZA style,
but not for long time. It grows into soaring marvel with dark, galloping
synths). The second CD is equally loaded with pounding TRANCE
to die for. Fans of OPERA TRANCE style will
be pleased with ROLLERBALL's "Albinoni"
tune featuring computerized and TRANCEsized
interpretation of one of the most famous work of XVII-XVIII century Italian
composer TOMASO ALBINONI: "Adaggio D-moll".
I love the original, and I am pretty stunned with this fast-paced "remake".
"Angel" by JEZPER SÖDERLUND
starts with TRIBAL intro featuring lotsa
drums and outgrows into majestic TRANCE.
The orchestration is breathtaking with music floating highs and lows on
synth boat. Listen to it with close eyes and your imgaination will go
wild. Dance to it, and get wild as well. Truly a beauty of it's own. Among
other marvels are "Bonny Portmore"
by CELTIC DREAMER feat. DOROTHY, "Everyone
Tears" by DI CARLO and of course the starting second
CD "Trancemaster Theme Requiem #1"
by JUSHI. Taken together you are getting not only a solid package
but an unltimate big room TRANCE sound you
could only dream of. All 22 tunes are plain great. This is the ultimate
CD for DJs playing TRANCE in clubs. Just
taking this double set CD would keep your dance floor in havoc for solid
two hours. If you are planning of buying ONE TRANCE
CD this year, this is just it! For now enjoy the music and rush to get
this CD, or you will be sorry you have missed it. |

I was so impressed with
the latest issue from TRANCEMASTER
that I have decided to look into other series from VISION
SOUNDCARRIERS called WORLD OF TRANCE.
The current volume 18 is actually quite old (released back in 2002),
but it didn't preclude me from checking it out. Both series cater to
club big room TRANCE sound, however WORLD
OF TRANCE is released less frequently (I hope volume 19 will
be out soon). You probably already heard several tunes featured on this
double CD compilation, however, what you are getting here are some hot
club-oriented mixes that are/were not available on other compilations.
The first CD starts with exquisite COSMIC GATE Mix of "God
Music" by DU MONDE. This one is a cool club-oriented
fare with killer synth line hook, dark male vocals and mood creator.
Among some interesting tunes that found their spot on the first CD is
"Lost In Dream" by MATANKA
a Johan Gielen project. This tune is featured in two versions (on first
CD as PUSH Transcendental Remix, and on the second CD as DJ Tandu Remix).
PUSH delivered truly epic mix with electrifying synth lines and
dark rumbling basslines. This beauty moves through mood change being
subtile at the very beginning than blooming into aggressive, full blown
TRANCE marvel. Among other great TRANCE
tunes on the first CD are "Sightless"
by FREEJACK, "7th Day"
by MR. PHILLIPS (you
simply cannot afford to miss presented here CJ STONE meets VOODOO &
SERANO Less Vocal Mix. This mix combines rather synth-driven style of
CJ STONE, with more progressive side represented by VOODOO and SERANO.
An awesome combination), "Godd"
by MARCO V etc. As you see many Dutch/Belgian projects featured
here warrant good TRANCE-experience. The
second CD continues with the TRANCE adventure.
The first track is well known "Lethal Industry"
by DJ TIËSTO that received additional treatment by CJ STONE.
I really like CJ STONE mixes, because they are adding the big room and
excitement feel. The original tune was excellent itself, but I find
this particular mix much more interesting. Next comes another known
tune "Fly Away" by DJ C7
in Extended, club-friendly version. "Summer
Sound System" by NATURE ONE INC starts a bit at psychodelic
route but it picks the right pace and atmosphere when it progresses.
There are many other great tunes such as "I
Won't Let You Down" by SUNFACTOR feat. EILEEN (futured
on may other comps such as Tunnel Trance Force or Future Trance) or
"Catalyst" by DJ CYGLAS
(this one is a speedy TRANCE with more
ACID side of it at least in part of the track) to name just few. Taken
together a good offering, not as strong as reviewed above TRANCEMASTER
3oo8, but maybe I am just spoiled too much. I still love
it though. For now enjoy the sound from this unmixed CD with sampler
featuring 11 tunes taken from both CDs.| Title:
IN TRANCE WE TRUST 008 - DJ Ton T.B. -reviewed
on 09/18/03 Label: 2003 In Trance We Trust / Black Hole Recording (Holland) Style: Trance Index #: ITWT 008CD |
|
| Review: | |
Another late review, but
I have received this next installement of IN
TRANCE WE TRUST series just couple of days ago. I did review
several of previous mixes released under this umbrella by such Dutch Djs
as DJ COR FIJNEMAN, MISJA HELSLOOT. Every volume features
TRANCE-oriented DJ Set. Reviewed today volume
8 released back in January 2003 features mix done by DJ TON T.B.
I haven't featured that much ouf of him under this name, but I am sure
if you are TRANCE and TECHNO
connoisseur, you should know him based on his THREE DRIVES project
and some mega tunes such as "Greece 2000",
"Sunset On Ibiza" or "Air
Traffic" to name the few. Just in September DJ TON T.B.
released his brand new single "Electronic Mulfunction".
Presented volume 8 is a good addition to the series with great selection
of music and smooth mixing technique. TRANCE
have many faces and the term is abused. Almost anything that's have goos
electronica and angelic synths is being called TRANCE
these days. Presented set features 15 tunes that are also loosly classified
as TRANCE. I said loosely, because you are
exposed to various moods, various strings, various feels, but all of them
have one common thing. It's a club sound. The mix starts with "009"
by CIRCULATION. Solid club production with pulsating beat and throbbing
synths. Perfect beginning for the set. This club experience continues
right on with follow ups such as "Traffic"
by JOKER JAM, "Atlantic Breeze"
by FLOOR DIVISIONS and so on. None of TRANCE here represents what
I called MAJESTIC, BIG ROOM, but rather intoxicitating club AFTEr HOURS,
IBIZA-style. Take a journey to DJ TON T.B. set through the sound sampler
featuring 8 tunes taken from this offering. Please keep
in mind that the original mixing was not retained. For more info about DJ TON T.B. visit his page at djtontb.com |

DJ NETWORX - Vol. 18
reviewed on 09/13/03 Label: 2003 Sony Music Media / Tunnel Records (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance Index #: 512 582 2 |
|
| Review: | |
Everytime when I get music
released on TUNNEL RECORDS I am having
a blast. In last few years DJ DEAN, a resident Tunnel Club DJ is
giving us an epitome of club sound unveiling trends and climates that
are present in German TECHNO scene. Newest
volume 18, from "DJ NETWORX"
is no different. DJ DEAN's selection of the music featured in this
double CD compilation is storming, pounding and exciting. You will encounter
electronica marvels that blur the lines between
TECHNO, HOUSE, TRANCE and also hits more
PROGRESSIVE/ACID side. The first CD starts
with beauty on it's own: "Sex On The Streets"
by SHAUN BAKER & MARC VAN LINDEN. It's galloping TRANCE
with floaty male vocals. It combines the beat, the hooks, the bassline
all together to one single screaming for more floor stomper. The temperature
is rising with more tunes following. Scintillating Extended Mix of "Human
Beings" by COSMIC GATE delivers geared to high-powered
big room pounder. Next tunes are shifting the mood into dark side of TECHNO
with lotsa of driving basslines and drums. Good examples are "Daytona
Beach" by STARSPLASH, or tunes by DJ SCOT PROJECT,
DJ MERLIN & NXP, DJ's DEAN partner in crime: DJ SHOKO,
DJ R. FISHBONE (his "Exploring"
in Blutonium Boy Hardstyle Mix delivers killer synth line hooks and mysterious,
deep sounding male vocals), WAVELINER vs. ROB MAYTH, LARS PALMAS
and others. This first CD is still more into TRANCE-side
though. For example "Dj Nation"
by UPLIFTING INC. brings together quite haunting TRANCE
styled synths and layered over electryfing bassline with blue-eye female
vocals. Seems that the TECHNO/TRANCE combo
dominates this compilation or at least it does in the first CD. The second
CD shifts more into HARD TECHNO style if
you will. No rest is allowed. True signature here are slamming bass drum
beats, throbbing bassline, sweeping synths and propulsive and in some
cases terryfing rhythms. It's psychodelic, it's infectious, it's pandemonic.
This darkside CD starts with "Ti Ta TNT"
by TNT, a dark production with rubbery bassline and psychodelic
feel. As I said you will have more of this punchy style on second CD with
follow up tunes by such projects as: DJ COONE, DA BOOTLEGERS, SMURREF,
DJ ZEMTEC and many others . That truly futuristic sound will continue
to the last tune on this CD. Taken together, yet another great trip to
more underground-oriented TECHNO/TRANCE sound
at it's best! In sound sampler I present 14 tunes taken from both
CDs to give you an idea of what to expect! Enjoy the sound. Get this compilation
directly from TUNNEL AMERICA and support
this trend of dance music here in the US. For now enjoy the sound.For more information on TUNNEL releases please visit: http://www.tunnelamerica.com |

HARDCLUB
reviewed on 09/13/03 Label: 2003 Sony Music Media / Tunnel Records (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance Index #: 513 376 2 |
|
| Review: | |
Yet another offering from
TUNNEL RECORDS courtesy of represented
here in the US TUNNEL
AMERICA. DJ DEAN is relentless in pursuing the higher state
of TRANCE showcases. As the title of this
release says: HARDCLUB, that is exactly
what it stands for. True club oriented HARD TECHNO
and HARD TRANCE for club mavens. Be prepared
for humulidating doses of bouncing basslines, heavy drums, tough progressive
rumblings, futuristic percussive beats. Your sanity is at stake. Truly
an awesome compilation for all of you who do want combo of mainstream
and underground sound in prolific mix by DJ DEAN. 40 tunes for
your entertainment are sported in this set. The first CD on the TRANCE
side starts with "Star" by PLAZMATEK.
Cutting-edge TECHNO/TRANCE hybrid here with
stuttered basslines and female vocals that add a majestic touch to this
club perk. Equally exciting is "Por qué
no" by MARTILLO VAGO with haunting TRANCE
feel filled by drifting synths and male speaking Spanish. This Spanish
touch is an interesting twist to overall already anthemic production.
Recently, some classic EURO are being revamped
into more aggressive electronica experience. Such treatment received chart
smash hit "Mr. Vain" by CULTURE
BEAT in "recall" version. If you never heard the original,
you probably will like that production, if you did, you will consider
this one as rather distorted tune that was simply vandalized. Neverthless,
it is still a winning trip for clubbers. The trip through TRANCE
world continues with so many good tunes, that it is almost impossible
to single them out. I personally liked such fares as "Way
To Heaven" by SAVON (an incredible blend of pulsating
synths over a bouncy basslines, with underlined textured female vocals),
"Feel 4 You" by THE MYSTERY
(you will encounter dreamy and lush sounding, filled with perpetuating
synths fireworks and solid melody line) or "On
The Beach" by TRANCE ANGELS (hypnotic and intense synth
action with energy level at strong steady pace) to name few. The second
CD flips to darker side of electronica with more pronounced beats and
heavy use of bass. It starts with PROGRESSIVE
BROOKLYN BOUNCE remix of "Promiseland"
by HYPETRAXX. As you can expect from BB lotsa of throbbing bass
drum kicks in here. They bleed into the next tune in line "Hardstyle
& Trance" by WAVELINER. Ultimate hard-hitting TECHNO/TRANCE
crossover. "Go Go Go" by JULIAN
DJ & DAVIDE SONAR is an intense production electronica with ACID-styled
basslines and electryfying waves of pulsating synths. Next comes "Tunnel
Hymn" by BALLANATION. It is pure energy TRANCE/TECHNO
fare with pumped up tempo. Definately a pick for the anthemic TRANCE
big rooms. There are much, much more on this CD. So be prepared to the
long lasting journey into mind-blowing music. All 40 tunes featured on
both CDs as I said are mixed by DJ DEAN. His mixes are good but
sporting crossfader as the major DJ tool. Some more sophisticated loops
and some jingles thrown here and there might give the mix more excitement.
I am presenting sound sampler with 14 tunes taken from both CDs.
Original mixing was not retained! Please order this compilation directly
from TUNNEL AMERICA. For now enjoy the music and get ready for a great
sound experienceFor more information on TUNNEL releases please visit: http://www.tunnelamerica.com |

I recently received this
compilation from California-based media company: KLEW MEDIA. Their
ambition is to become a leading full service media company integrating

music mega-mix created by three top Chicago-based: TO KOOL CHRIS, MARKSKI
and BOBBY D. Presented CD features for the first time all three
of these highly saught after DJs you can listen B96 Radio Station that

their own mixes lasting approximately 24 minutes each. An ultimate DANCE
party right in comfort of your very own home. I am sure most of you should
already be familiar with titles featured in this offering. They are not
new but they are truly hits. The point will be not to introduce you to
a new stuff but rather to give you a cool selection of dance music in
different genres in compact disc for you car or party. Take a pick. There

per each DJ set). I retained the original mixing, however I did shorten
the length of tunes in each mix. Check it out. I believe you can buy this

MANIECZKI - Ekwador Klubreviewed
on 8/26/03 Label: 2003 Hit'N'Hot (Poland) Style: Techno/House Index #: 0526065 |
|
| Review: | |
Several German labels are
associated with club scene. There are many examples such as KONTOR Records
(with Kontor Club) or TUNNEL Records (with Tunnel Club). Today let me
present you a release from Polish mega DANCE label emerging as Polish-forefront
record company Hit'N'Hot under the
wings of BMG. In presented DJ-mixed compilation "MANIECZKI
- Ekwador Klub". Ekwador Klub established in 1998 is located
in remote area of Poland in city Manieczki, yet this venue gains a lot
of attention and became a leading TECHNO
club in that country. DJ sets were presented there by such luminaries
of TECHNO such as WESTBAM, DR MOTTE, MARIO
LOPEZ, KOSMONOVA, 4 CLUBBERS, DJs@WORK to name the few. So, presented
compilation is a tribute to TECHNO sound
played in Ekwador with 15 tunes mixed by DJ KRIS. Seems that DJs
in Poland not just play the music but they are very interactive with the
dance floor. CD features a lot of "interruptions" by DJ KRIS
who tries to heat things up: screams, jingles etc. Music itself is very
good and I am sure that fans of club TECHNO
sound will have a good time to listen to this CD (not to mention doing
some serious dancing). Among 15 tunes are mostly European tunes however
there is a Polish POP-HOUSE fare featured
as the first one in the mix: "Hold Me Tonight"
by DJ ANY. This one truly reminds DANCE NATION in terms
of sound with textured melody line, infectious male vocal and happy synths.
If you like club oriented HOUSE you have
plenty of this style in fares like "Make Luv"
by MASTER FREAKZ, Italian BENNY BENASSI's "Satisfaction"
(electronic pandemonium of sexually aroused female vocal and some bored
to death male vocals both compiled into pounding stomper). You wanna more
"hardcore" innuendos? Sure. Hit "Orgasm"
by DJ MATYS. This is kinda interesting mash of uplifting TECHNO
with some bouncing basslines and mind-blowing TRANCE
synths. Very hot indeed! This TRANCE climate
bleeds to next fare "Only One"
by THE JUDGE. One will appreciate huge pulsating synths, soaring
basslines and electrifying male vocals in this killer club offering. Among
more knowns offerings are presented by DRUNKEYMONKEY, DJ BOOZYWOOZY
or KLUBBHEADS. Otherwise most of remaining tunes are rather less
known, yet definately worth of checking them out. CD closes dramatic big
room "Go" by DJ PRINCE + JUSTINE
K. So taken together it's an interesting club release for all of you
who got tired of mainstream sound and want to get an access to something
more club-oriented. Enjoy the sound sampler featuring 8 tunes taken from
this compilation. The original mix is not retained. Buy this CD to from

FERRY CORSTEN - World Tour - WASHINGTON reviewed
on 7/30/03 Label: 2003 Purple Eye Entertainment BV / Tsunami (Holland) Style: Trance Index #: CCD1518 |
|
| Review: | |
I am late with the review
of this compilation, but I had really hard time to do the sound sampler
because of the copy-protection this CD has. I was committed to present
you this release, because it is a stunning TRANCE trip at it's best. FERRY
CORSTEN after staying in mainstream of electronic sound for last 13 years
remains one of the top DJs and producers of this style. "World
Tour - Washington" is his second compilation from this
series featuring his worldwide appearance. This one presents his Washington,
DC DJ set. Truly mind blowing experience that touches every single nerve
of your body, stimulates you imagination and puts your mind into spiritual
bliss. A wonderful trip to big room TRANCE.
This is the club experience you hardly can forget. You gotta try this
CD playing loud on good audio-system. The effect is truly unforgettable.
The set features 15 tunes along with SYSTEM F (FERRY's pet
project) own "Spaceman". This fare
sports intoxicating synths that shine throughout the tune over a stomping
bottom built on diabolic strings and angelic female vocal incorporating
mystery and drama to the fare. A wonderful listening experience. FERRY's
set is truly loaded with uplifting [mostly instrumental] TRANCE
sound and unforgettable experience. "I am Alone"
by SUN DECADE features pumping beat and galloping synths topped
with intoxicating hooks. "Sweetest Dreams"
by CORDEROY in CORSTEN mix delivers massive big room, turbo
charged fare with DREAM feel represented
by piano section beautifully incorporated into synth's fireworks. "Free
Your Mind" by SAPPHIRCUT is massive crossover between
OPERA TRANCE and hypnotic TECHNO
with beautiful female vocals delivering angelic touch to this beauty.
All remaining fares are delivering equally potent sound with hard-charging
synths throughout slamming instrumentation. You will love the set. I prepared
sound sampler featuring 9 titles from this offering (the original Ferry's
mix was not retained). Enjoy the sound and buy this CD to support music
creators. If you want to buy this compilation or other great euro releases, visit http://www.europemusic.com |

Next release from a very
popular series MAD ABOUT THE BOY
at it's volume 10 is out. This milestone volume brings a winning composition
of best of contemporary KLONE releases with some "exclusives"
just for this set. If you are following this NRG
set you are into some surprises. Folks from KLONE decided to give some
"fresh up-to-date" EUROTRANCE
style treatment to several otherwise contemporary NRG
tunes. Some of these tunes are original some of them are remakes, all
remarkably well produced and ready to please dance floor. This "updated
sound" dominates on first CD.
High octane marvel is delivered by KLONE leading female vocalist
JO FRANCES in her "Brass In Pocket".
This is NRG fused with some interesting
TRANCE-alike strings. This CD features
also other artists such MASSIVE EGO vs. MISS DUSTY "O",
very popular KELLY, SLEAZESISTERS and newcomers PRIMERO.
Second CD flips into more POPish sound with interesting interpretation
of some classic fares. U2 huge "With
Or Without You" got a wonderful interpretation by KINKY
McGINTY or "Baker Street"
by LEIF BENJAMIN sporting galloping beat and updated melody line.
Among exclusive for this release tracks are "Naked
In The Rain" by PRIMERO, "Boys"
by DYNAMIX, "I Hear You Knocking"
by DUSTY 'O', "Loving Arms"
by KELLY and "Hold Me Now"
by MANTRONIX. Taken together if you like the NRG sound so characteristic
for this series, you will love this release. The music is party ready,
and I've already tried it with great success. You will dance to it,
but you also can listen to it. Yet another successful set from KLONE.
The sound sampler contains the mix of 8 tracks taken from both CDs.
Support KLONE and get this one directly from them! For now enjoy
the sound!| Title:
Tunnel Trance Force - Vol. 25
reviewed on 07/21/03 Label: 2003 Sony Music Media / Tunnel Records (Germany) Style: Techno/Trance Index #: 512 303 2 |
|
| Review: | |
Let me present you two releases
from German label TUNNEL RECORDS courtesy
of represented here in the US TUNNEL
AMERICA. Let me start with new volume (25) of their well crafted
and popular series: "Tunnel Trance Force".
No surprises. This volume delivers 36 tunes of high TRANCE
quality chosen and mixed by resident TUNNEL DJ DEAN. As usually
this double CD set is divided thematically. with the first CD entitled
"PURPLE POWER MIX", and
the second one entitled "YELLOW PARTY MIX".
Expect pumping electronic music. DJ DEAN usually prefers playing
HARD/PROGRESSIVE sound over other styles. No wonder why many mixes chosen
for the first CD has that feel. For instance first track: AXEL KONRAD's
Mix of "The End" by GROOVE COVERAGE
is very dark, speedy and filled with bass and pumping beats almost on
the edge of PROGRESSIVE HOUSE. Drums are
heavily used as well. While mostly HARD TRANCE
dominates the first CD you can find there also some mystical TRANCE
tunes like a massive "Trancenight Anthem 03"
by TRANCENIGHT ,"Question"
by ESS-EFF or "New Life" by DJ QUICKSILVER to
give you just few examples. Among cutting-edge HARD
TRANCE tunes are MEGARA vs. DJ LEE Remix of PULSEDRIVER's
own "Galaxy". Incredibly sexy where
pulsating synths, mesemerizing synthesizers and female vocal join forces
for a wickedly hypnotic ride. Speaking of hypnotic ride, equally exciting
is "Protect The Innocent" by THE
MATRIX. This pounding fare provides a driving force for your dance
floor. Following is "Metro" by
ULTRA SPIN. Yet another TRANCE slammer
with it's evil, layered synths gives an intense cushion for a pounding
bottom. Second CD brings us even closer to pulsating club dance floor
with many brilliant electronics now more powerful than ever. This set
starts with DJ DEAN's own remix of "Ready For
This?" by SPITFIRE. Begins as pounding DRUM'N'BASS
fare with galloping beats swirling later into magnificent HARD
TRANCE experience with a female vocals twist. Next comes LUCA
ANTOLINI courtesy of S.A.I.F.A.M. (yes! This Italian label famous
of extraordinary NRG sound is now into electronica).
If you like UNDERGROUND club sound this CD
will definately fit you. With tunes by WAVELINER, BOBBY V. ANGEL BEATS,
RAY CLARKE, ACCUFACE and others you will not go wrong. An ultimate
club experience if you will. In sound sampler you will find 16
tunes taken from both CDs. Original mixing was not retained! Enjoy the
sound and get this compilation directly from TUNNEL AMERICA showing your
support for the music and this website (YES! I am getting promo copies,
so if you want to hear more previews in the future better buy the album,
so they will keep supoorting EuroDanceHits.com). Thanks an enjoy the music.For more information on TUNNEL releases please visit: http://www.tunnelamerica.com |

HYPERTRANCE 01
reviewed on 07/21/03 Label: 2003 Sony Music Media /Tunnel Records (Germany) Style: Hard Trance Index #: 511 963 2 |
|
| Review: | |
Now time for the brand new series from TUNNEL
RECORDS. As HARD TRANCE and more
PROGRESSIVE sound is exploding in European
clubs, this new offering is especially dedicated to all of you who wants
to get into club atmosphere. I am late with the review (the CD was released
back in May), but it is worth to introduce it to you. The track listing
was picked up by DJ DEAN as well, but contrary to other major series
from TUNNEL RECORDS this set features UNMIXED tunes. It should be especially
handy for DJs who are looking for full length or extended hard to get
versions. Both CDs have their own intros and outros. You should be familiar
by now with many featured tunes, but let me remind you that the beauty
of the tunes are club or remixed versions that you might have hard time
to find anywhere else. So first CD features mega club hits like sexually
explicit "Suck my ..." by DICKHEADZ,
"The Frequency" by DJ DIGRESS
(this one remixed by DJ DEAN himself is a kicker landing on PROGRESSIVE/DRUM'N'BASS
teritory) and once again DJ DEAN's own "Protect
Your Ears", however in quite unique remix. This is hypnotic
and very industralized TECHNO version with
lotsa strings and tantalizing electronica experiences. Very, very different
from the original version. If you are into electronica driven sound you
are into a treat. There are much more hardstyle electronica in tha house.
"Hold Me Tonight" by ANGEL_ONE
was turned by HENNES & COLD into powerfully passionate and mesmerizing
dark kicker. Seven minutes of electronic experience that will drive any
dancefloor wild. Club Mix of "Down On The Streets"
by HEADSTORM is also an example of superb club tune that is dipping
red hot TECHNO into TRANCE-land
hard style. Second CD goes deeper in UNDERGROUND scene with "Back
To The BeatBox" by DJ SHOKO vs. GROUNDZERO. This sound
is definately for serious clubbers that do appreciate psychotic beats
and pandemonium of noise. The bass kicker such "Hard
Bass Extreme" by THE BEHOLDER & BALASTIC or "Bring
Me Ur Silence" by DJ ZEMTEC are perfect fit for PROGRESSIVE/INDUSTRIAL
club scene. Taken together you gonna have fun! I am providing you with
sound sampler featuring fragment of 10 tunes taken from both CDs. Enjoy
the sound and get this compilation to support quality club music! For more information on TUNNEL releases please visit: http://www.tunnelamerica.com |
