Octagen vs MIDOR – Thesis (RENOISE Remix)
May 7th
Another new track in my Top 10 list is the RENOISE Remix of Octagen vs MIDOR – Thesis, which currently tops the Beatport trance charts ahead of Tritonal’s Piercing Quiet.
RENOISE adds a whole new sound and feel to the main melody which lasts during a long middle-break.
Tritonal feat. Cristina Sota – Piercing Quiet
May 7th
A new entry to my top 10 list this week, Tritonal have again released another stunning vocal track and it’s no surprise that already it’s #2 in the Beatport Trance charts.
The American duo have been with a number of releases this year such as Daybreak, Lunarium, Lights over Austin, Northern Aura and have continued their trend of uplifting vocal trance with ‘Piercing Quiet’, which has everything from excellent vocals from Cristina Sota to an uplifting melody.
Piercing Quiet has recently been released on Flashover Recordings on beatport
Jan Oostdyk – Out Of The Box (Tech Trance)
May 7th
Out of the Box by Jan Oostdyk is a superb uplifting tech trance track that has featured on episode 400 of Armin Van Buuren’s A state of trance radio show, Sied Van Riel played it during his set at Godskitchen Birmingham.
You can buy the track at Armada downloads
The intro builds into it’s peak, uplifting melody before the thrilling bassline kicks off again to get a dancefloor rocking.
Listen to the track below, as Sied Van Riel plays my former Track of the week ‘Breakfast – Remember’ before unleashing ‘Out of the Box’ at Godskitchen Birmingham.
Tune of the Week – Breakfast – Remember
Apr 27th
Tough one this week, a few trance tracks to decide over (mostly Reverse – Distant Destiny) but in the end I went with Breakfast’s new track – Remember. It has a similar sound to “The Sunlight” but it still has a different and uplifting melody and it’s sure to feature in a lot of mix-sets and radio shows, Sied Van Riel played it during his ASOT400 set at Godskitchen, Birmingham.
It’s out now on Flashover Recordings together with “After Midnight” but that’s a track I’m not very keen on.
Gareth Emery – Exposure/Metropolis
Apr 23rd

Gareth Emery is set to release another amazing double Trance EP – Exposure and Metropolis on Garuda Records. Exposure has had a lot of plays at gigs on the trance radio shows and looks set to be huge while Metropolis is equally as good and was the first track in his set at ASOT400 – Birmingham. Can’t wait ’til this gets a release around mid May.
Other good tracks from Gareth Emery: This is That, More than Anything, Another You Another Me (Vs Lange), Soul Symbol.
