Future Sound EP Vol. 27

Secret Haven

We all encounter moments that challenge who we are and who we might become. We stumble, we doubt, we fall - but within those moments lies the spark of transformation. It isn’t just change. It’s courage. It’s fire. And that same bravery is at the core of the twenty-second installment of Armin van Buuren’s annual year mix series: ‘A State of Trance Year Mix 2025 (Mixed by Armin van Buuren)’.

Opening with a powerful narration that sets the stage for transformation, this 113-track journey takes you through the sounds that breathe courage, reinvention, and unshakable energy. From uplifting anthems and emotive vocal tracks to driving, boundary-pushing tech-trance, the mix features productions from Armin van Buuren, Omnia, Above & Beyond, Cosmic Gate, Ferry Corsten, Giuseppe Ottaviani, and many more. Collaborations with artists such as Bon Jovi, Martin Garrix, KI/KI, Sam Gray, and Malou highlight the spirit of connection and reinvention, while tracks such as ‘Set Me Free (Rising Star Remix)’, ‘Put Your Bassline’, ‘Holding The Light’, ‘Marama (Moon & Stars)’, and ‘Missing Part Of Me’ demonstrate the power to transform moments into memories.

Whether through soaring melodies or relentless grooves, this mix invites you to take the leap, embrace the unknown, and let the music guide your own transformation. All together, in A State of Trance.

A State of Trance Year Mix 2025 [Preview]

Pre-order Voltaire EP now on Beatport: https://www.beatport.com/label/hope-recordings/235

Argentinian duo Analog Jungs make their debut on Hope Recordings with a sensational four-track EP. Breaking into the scene in 2015, Claudio Cornejo and Gustavo Ruartebring with them a rich progressive legacy from a country synonymous with the melodic side of house music. Already signed to some solid imprints such as Balkan Connection, Clinique Recordings, Dopamine Music and Or Two Strangers, Analog Jungs are well on their way to stardom.

The EP begins with the swaggering‘Voltaire’. 80s sensibilities and crisp production set this track apart and signal what’s to come. ‘Smiles’ follows from a deeper, subtly tribal place. More thoughtful than its wilder brother, this is perfect warm up material for the cooler floors.

‘Mission Capsule’ is an energetic, percussive groover. Pads drift in and out with a will of their own as the main synth hooks you in for the full ride. Rounding out the pack, ‘Iceman’ continues at pace. Warm, inviting pads marry with a woodblock-led percussive cushion as the breaks cools the tension before providing the all-important pay off.

Analog Jungs - Iceman (PREVIEW)

Returning to Sudbeat after the excellent ‘Human’ EP is Emi Galvan with three more dancefloor bombs in the form of the ‘Alfa Zeta’ EP.

Emi Galvan has blazed quite a trail within the progressive community over the last four years. It was 2015 that he became a significant blip on dance music’s radar with the excellent ‘Mexico Trip’ and ‘You Never’. DJ support from the upper echelons of the genre has cemented his position, and spurred him on to ever greater achievements.

‘Alfa Zeta’ opens with ominous chords as the shaker led percussion draws you in. In no rush to leave, the groove develops patiently; layering synths and melody aplomb. ‘Karma’ is more insistent. It’s Moroder-like bass drives forward with Bladerunner sweeps and Eastern keys adding mystery. Rounding out the pack is the uptempo ‘Trust’. Built around a repeating hook, crisp percussive layers and powerful pads energise and grow over time into a climatic peak time monster.

Release Date: 4 Feb 2019

Cream & Deep Fog - Iridium (Plus Thirty Remix)

Clubsonica Records begins their 2019 journey by welcoming Armandhe back to the label for a new EP. Previously known as Soluna, the Colombian artist adopted the Armandhe moniker with his ‘Sacred Heart/Ozadya' double a-side release from July of last year. A fresh start has only provided more creative energy for Armandhe who has continued to unite progressive music fans with his redolent creations. Now returning to his home label of Clubsonica, the Medellin resident presents his 'Inside the Music Box / While the Wolf's Away' EP alongside remixes from Paul Angelo & Don Argento and Jonnas B.

Beginning with ‘Inside the Music Box' Armandhe explores a deeper side of his studio repertoire. Free flowing from the outset, it's rippling low end provides a fluid energy while quirky hooks and timely effects fill in the framework. Stripping down into the main break, the musical narrative expands, opening a spiritual reservoir of glowing clusters and emotive chord changes, before effortlessly shifting energy into an evocative final act. 

The companion piece ‘While the Wolf's Away' follows a similar sonic ethos with its drummy tension and musical meanderings. Beginning with a warm, rolling groove the piece moves with discernible momentum, as layers of atmosphere and cascading themes converge in a perfect sonic marriage. As the second act evolves, striking electronics bring a melodic tension of sorts, dramatic and poignant in equal measure, they elevate the mood further before flowing beautifully into a rousing finale.

The first interpretation of ‘While the Wolf's Away' is provided by Paul Angelo & Don Argento who make their label debut here. The Cyprus based production team were undoubtedly one of 2018's fastest rising progressive house duos. Support from Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren came in waves and the duo's groovy, dance floor inspired take on the genre quickly became an irresistible trend. Now making their first and highly anticipated appearance on Clubsonica Paul & Don provide a stunning take on ‘While the Wolf's Away'. Dark and brooding from the outset, it's chugging cadence and ghostly motifs are immediately compelling. Indistinct vocals trail through the framework, elevating mood and tension throughout the break, before cascading tones and percussive flurries unite for an exhilarating apex and powerful drop. 

The release concludes with Jonnas B returning to the label and providing the second and final interpretation of ‘While the Wolf's Away'. A staple of Colombia's progressive underground for seven years the Medellin based artist has earned play and support from the world's biggest DJs, most notably Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren. Now making a welcome return to Clubsonica, Jonnas rounds out the release with a superb rendition of ‘While the Wolf's Away'. Shifting mood and tempo to a deeper place it's a piece which excels on rhythm and groove. Perfectly contoured, its thick slabs of bass power forward as intricate percussion, delicate arps and haunting atmospherics lead into the break. Like an ultrasonic wave, emotional energy rises across the eighty second centrepiece, eventually melting down to rolling drums and a sheet of white noise, perfectly setting up a magical dance floor moment. A spectacular remix from Jonnas which caps off another must have release from Clubsonica Records, who get 2019 off to an incredible start.
