Ilya Deep & Jacco@Work – My Little Girl [LuPS Records] – Review

It is time for the first collab track between Ilya Deep and Jacco@Work. You can easliy hear who produced what in this track. Ilya took care of the atmospheric melodylines and Jacco took care for the beats and bassline and additonal fx’s. All together this leads to a unique blend of styles. Their team up turned out into a moody, melancholic but yet atmospheric prog house track with Tech House beats and crispy percussion.

The first remix comes from Fake Truth. His remix is not so average. It takes off with an eerie synthline and a lazy broken beat structure filled up with a deep slappy bassstab and swirlling bubbling sound fx’s. As the track moves forward the beats are turning into a more  4 to the floor structure to turn back again halfway the track into a breakbeatstructure during the breakdown of the track. At the end things are becoming more Tech Prog with a pounding dark groove. As said not an average track but surely a great chill out tune which adds some magic to the dancefloor as the end of the track brings back the full energy.

The second remix comes from Fiddler. He is rapidly making name and fame in the today scene with his more old school bassed prog house sound. This remix is no exception to that style. It kicks of with a bombastic groove with a wide soundscape filled up with some steady percussionlines. On top he placed the arpped synthlines and moody melodylines of the original to create an orchestral sound. This is a great after hour chill out track.

The last remix comes from Domased Electronica. After his very well received The Magic Of Candles release he now brings a huge remix of My Little Girl. It is admireable how Ladislav is capeable to keep up with the pace of delivering quality tunes. From the first note till the end his remix is breathing. A superb groove with a dark organstab as earcatcher combined with a bold deep warmbassline lies underneath a magical musical carpet of melodylines and ambient sounds. This remix goes deep and explores each corner of your human being. Surely when the very well found sample of a laughing young girl hits your speakers and Ladislav introduces a soulpiercing new fluteline which causes the goosebumps all over your body. This is true prog from the heart and a timeless masterpiece. Save the best for last so to speak!!!

AudioStorm – Hard Way EP [LuPS Records] – Review

AudioStorm returns to LuPS for the 150th release. Once again Ognjen Vukovic aka AudioStorm shows his talented in creating atmospheric but yet driving tracks. Hard Way is a perfect example of how versatile progressive music can be. AudioStorm managed to blend together a few styles in this track. A chugging techno groove in the background with on top long layers of mellow progsounds and a handfull of old school synthstabs, arps and fx’s. Hard Way is another great track which shows that AudioStorm is a name to keep an eye on.

First remix comes from Domased Electronica aka Ladislav Zajic. It is his debut track on LuPS and how. Domased Electronica delivers an impressive masterpiece with a huge swinging groove which has been stuffed up with lots of danceable percussion lines and elements. Ladislav also inserted a few new syntstabs which are really catchy. The breakdown section is just amazing and a true dancefloor filler. You simply can’t go wrong when dropping this remix.

The second remix comes from T-Dallas. Hailing from Greece Thanos Dallas hands over another storming remix of Hard Way. His remix contains a majestic prog house groove with that typical Greek emotional feeling and atmosphere. However this remix goes way deeper then the one from Domased Electronica. Besides that it just sneaks under your skin to stay there for quite some time.

The last remix comes from Viktor K. Viktor delivers a more classic prog house remix with a deep growling bassline which he combined with fragile pads and melodylines. The whole arrangement has been topped of with long reverbed stabs and bubbling arps and additional percussion elements.

Review of Quintax – Perspectus EP

Quintax is a side project of the much loved Styller aka Branislav Klinko who hails from Slovakia.

https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/c…

The first official Quintax production was the excellent remix of Michael, Levan and Stiven Rivic’s “Twilight” which was released in August. The mix was appropriately titled Quintax’s “Atmospheric Air” Remix becasue of it’s very airy and wispy sounding atmospheric elements. A truly great sound on that remix. His new single “Perspectus” for Mistique Music is of the same quality, a very tech-trance atmospheric vibe on the original, the galloping style beats really give the track alot of groove and the atmosphere has a lot of character with it’s ultra grainy feel. Absolute no cheese here at all, this is proper atmospheric, soulful trance music. You won’t here many tracks that fit this description nowadays. Well done!

The remixes are supplied by Mistique regulars Domased Electronica and Timewave. The Domased Electronica mix adds a slightly rougher and grungier edge to the bottom end and the melodic keys are a bit more prominent in this mix which does offer a nice variation on the already great Original Mix. The Timewave mix closes the package out and it’s got that signature Timewave sound that we all know and love, the squelchy, epic synth lines that give Timewaves productions so much energy are certainly there along with a big meaty bassline. Overall it has a slightly deeper vibe than some of his previous productions which is a nice change and shows some diversity. Overall this is a great package and it really is what proper trance music should sound like. If anyone remembers some of the old Planisphere productions the original mix here is of that quality.

Release date: September 7th, 2010
Progressive/Progressive

Original Mix
Quintax’s Original version here has that classic Mistiquemusic sound. Combining the deep, atmopspheric progressive with something that’s very very trancey. A deep, dark pounding beat works exceptionally well with the lush, dreamy melodic patterns.

Domased Electronica Remix
With the deep, pounding rawness of the original, Domased Electronica must have been itching to get on remix duties for this. He did. In massive style! Giving that bassline and beat a more massive sound (if that were possible), this remix will have the dance floor shaking in no time!!

Timewave Remix
Although Timewave is one of the latest additions to the Mistique ‘Exclusive Artists’ roster, it certainly feels as though he’s been part of the label for a long time. He has captured the hearts of many progressive lovers worldwide with his deep, progressive trance blend, and with Perspectus, he delivers once again. Lightening the mood somewhat, he uses his familiar trance like sound along with some dreamy, sumptuous harmonies.

02. Perspectus (Domased Electronica remix)
03. Perspectus (Timewave remix)

Review of Affective – Broken Mood EP

The ‘Broken Mood’ EP by Affective kicks off what is about to be a very hectic few months for Mistique Music.

https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/c…

With a release scheduled every 2 days for the month of September and October things are really heating up at Mistique headquarters! Affective’s ‘Broken Mood’ original has been floating around for a while now, appearing in some Eryo sets from as far back as April. It’s an amazing melodic progressive breaks track with lots of textures and atmosphere that all blend together very well. The tracks lead is a very effective guitar line that really adds to the soulful nature of the tune overall. There are also some very big mixes on the package from some of Mistique’s finest, Domased Electronica, The Stain and Kay-D all offer interpretations here. Being one Mistique`s premier artists Ladislav Zajic otherwise known as Domased Elecronica does what he does best here. Those trademark Slovakian stomping beats really give the track huge punch and great dancefloor sesnibility, coupled with lots of wispy atmospheres and subtle melodic touches we have another amazing remix from Domased Electronica. Next up The Stain takes things in a deeper vein and it has turned out brilliantly. Sultry deep grooves with great rhythms and a cool atmosphere make this one perfect for many dancefloors out there. Closing out the package is another legendary Mistique producer Kay-D. Kajdi Krisztián otherwise know as Kay-D has produced another amazing interpretation here. Bouncy beats, sultry female vocal pads, very soulful melodic lines, a classy sounding piano section and a truly memorable breakdown that is beautifully emotive. Amazing stuff from Kay-D and a great release from Mistique.
