Cape Town, South Africa -- for some, it's one of the most remote locations on earth, practically the stuff of legends. For Nate Raubenheimer, the tip of the southernmost African country is home. Armin van Buuren has said of the man, "Everything he touches turns to musical gold." Really, there can be no stronger endorsement, nor can there be a statement more accurate.

His is a classic tale -- inspired at the age of 8, it wasn't long before his life's journey led him to audio engineering school, and ultimately, to the largest festivals in the world. Protoculture's fans are filled with an almost feverish adoration, the kind of hard-earned reputation that only someone with genuine talent can enjoy. Success hasn't been all roses for the producer, however, as his hometown is one of the worst spots to travel from for an internationally touring DJ.

'Music Is More Than Mathematics' is an appropriate title for this exceptional album, and there's absolutely no formula for what Protoculture does. If "awesome" could be bottled into a jar, it would be this record. Finding better descriptors is as pointless as trying to compete with his musical talents. 
Even though each record radiates the artist behind the controls, Protoculture was able to attract talented producers, songwriters, and vocalists to help realize this record. Christian Burns, Johnny Yono, Max Graham, Jennifer Rene, and Tricia McTeague are some of the multitalented collaborators that made 'Music Is More Than Mathematics' possible, and their respective contributions seem to come at the precise time they're needed in this musical journey.

Certain albums defy conventional logic, and certain sounds are so transcendental that it's hard to see "trance" as anything but the right term. This is a special release, and one that covers as much territory as Protoculture's frequent trips around the globe.

Coming in the form of a phenomenal original and a progressive Paul Thomas & White-Akre Remix, Assaf's 'Sweet Sorrow' strikes a perfect balance between power and emotion. Spiked with a jaw-dropping melody and a build-up more stellar than the sun itself, this brand-new addition to the Armada Captivating catalog is that one track you've been searching for all this time.

The future of trance is in safe hands. Flag-bearers of the next generation of trance producers, we find Andrew Rayel and Bobina doing what they do best: make the crowds explode. ‘Sacramentum’ is the first of hopefully many more collaborations of the two future promises. 

These are exciting times for trance lovers. With the scene exploding in the US, Asia and many other territories in the world, it’s only a matter of time until the entire globe dances to the sounds of uplifting, the flows of melody and the bass of depth. One of the biggest discoveries in trance producer land is, without doubt, Moldovian producer Andrew Rayel. 

Warming up for his debut album, he teamed up with Russian mastermind Bobina. Together, they rise to great heights. ‘Sacramentum’ is the intricate affair that balances a spellbinding vocal sample with a mind-blowing melody and a pay-off that ’s so big, it’s going to be the highlight to any night out.
