Icedream Releases, Singles, Remixes

Pure, good old Uplifting from start to finish. A bit of a journey back to the roots of the Icedream signature sound.

Here it finally is, my latest Uplifting production "Rewind" - hope you enjoy! This is going to be my last Trance production in a long while for personal reasons.

It's been great to see all the support for Icedream and KPM throughout the last year, thank you so much for it! I'm going to spend less time with Trance music production and DJing overall in the coming time. I appreciate it if you understand the situation, and I look forward to the next time I can show some new music to you all. :)

Rewind (Original Mix)

Track 1 of "The Lost Tracks." This track originally was named "Sentimentality" but I decided to rename it and intended to rework this track. That never happened.

"The Lost Tracks" consists of yet unreleased tracks that haven't found their way to the finish line of the idea drawer or their implementation. Many of these tracks were actually intended to be reworked or expanded on in the coming time. Instead of locking them away, I decided to release these tracks in their current state in full-length, they would have otherwise gone unused in the future.

Not all of the tracks can be provided as FLAC since some of the project files went missing or corrupted and I can't rerender them. Some of them I had to touch up based on the already rendered WAV file.

Icedream - Horizon (Original Mix)

This is track 2 from "The Lost Tracks" called "Broken." This track never got developed beyond this version after I first played it in my guest mix for WDCR, I ended up using a lot of the stuff I implemented here in other tracks such as "I Need You" instead.

Track 3 from "The Lost Tracks" is another unfinished tune that went through various attempts on sound developments and name changes, originally "Virus" based on an instrument preset that was used in the first version, later turned to "Portal" based on its vaguely glitchy sound at the drop. This track started in 2015(!) and aside from using it in my last set before hiatus  - the HQ x Intricacy one - I really never shared this one.

Portal (Intro Mix)

Track 15 from "The Lost Tracks" never made it to a release on the label it was intended for. It originally started out in 2015 as a remix for a track made by Dreamy (where the name "Dare To Dream" would have come into play nicely), then turned into something a bit too far from my usual stuff at the time. It ended up being my very first truly "harder" Trance experiment after having already experimented with Tech Trance sounds with the Dive remix in 2014.

Dare To Dream (Original Mix)

Track 13 from "The Lost Tracks" is one of the productions that lasted throughout my slight transition between styles from 2015 to 2018. It never saw its own release as it had the same problem as "The Twist" with the drop just not having enough oomph. The rest of it is a shame to not share though.

Forces (Original Mix)

Returning with a new production after a long break, this is the newest Icedream banger: Energy-laden percussion, powerful synth and FX work with breakbeats to knock you off your socks!

Merry Christmas everyone! This is the gift I have this year for you. I didn't even get to playing this one in any of my sets yet but I worked hard to get this one out today, hope you enjoy and please share it all around!

The Dave Schiemann remix of Pillowfight has always been one of the more unique sounding tunes in my collection and was probably my introduction as a teenager to the weirder sounding side of Trance with its zips and zoops all across the track. I wonder what his tunes would sound like today if he did a comeback.

I decided to take this track and pull it into my realm of UplifTech craziness to give it that extra energy.

Five years ago, Neptune Project started a remix contest as part of the release of their "A Question Of Reality" album. The remix contest was specifically for one of the stand-out tracks on it, "Pulse," for anyone who wanted to participate. In the end, three winners and a few follow-ups were chosen that were supposed to get released on Mythology over two remix EPs. The second remix EP release however never happened, and my remix being part of the follow-ups was stuck in release limbo. As of this Saturday, that has changed: I was able to reach out to Dan and he gave me the green light to go ahead and share this track with you all directly!

This is the full length version of the remix from 2019. There was no shorter version of this track.

You know the deal. It's the last day before the actual scheduled Christmas giveaway. Another surprise tune that I have been sitting on for a long time without doing anything with it, and now you can have it! A dreamy, yet driving tune, and it definitely has its spikes and curves to be proud of.

This is the last track of the massive Christmas Giveaway 2019, the last Icedream original to be released this year. It's been a while since I got the more typical Icedream sound back into an actual full production, and it's finally time to get back to the roots with that.  This is my new track "Time Rift," hopefully you enjoy this one!

I don't think I will be able to make another massive giveaway like this one in the near future, but this year there were a lot of tunes I was just sitting on without a way to properly release them in a manner I would find acceptable. Now that these tracks made it out there, I think I can go back to doing the music stuff as usual. :)

Here's my remix of The Roc Project's classic tune "Never." Enjoy the fresh breeze of Icedream, especially right now amidst the chaotic times. (Vocals not necessarily the original ones, this is not an official remix, etc etc.)

I know this is a hard classic to top, and this is not really a remix that wants to top the Filterheadz remix that everyone knows and love. This is more of a tribute of mine to this track that has been following me ever since my childhood.

Icedream - Against All Odds [BXS007]

Free downloads throughout the whole December! Part 8/13.

I've been sitting on this one for quite a while, deciding on whether I want this to go to a label or not. I loved playing this one every time on stream. It has some of my finest effect works to date on it, has one of the best mixtures of modern Trance influences and melodies I could come up with so far. And the vocal inspired me on the direction I wanted to take with this track so much. I even involved the community in feedback for this track which I really don't do often. Things worked out in a way that I decided to go ahead and just throw this one in for this epic month of free downloads.

Here's my latest original work "I Need You." Hopefully you enjoy it!
