The trance world has been fortunate of late to be treated to a slew of releases from Armin, and this week we have yet another stunning production premiered on ASOT just a few weeks ago. Featuring the glorious topline of Ana Criado 'Suddenly Summer', as the title suggest will teleport you to the golden sands of Ibiza, as it gently warms the soul with delicate vocals, and mind-clearing melodies. The essence of this (as with many Armin tracks) is the core piano arrangement, which could stand up as a classical piece of work in its own right. Watch the eyes close and hands raise in the air as soon as you drop this one. Armin is well and truly back to his best, long may it continue!

PAUL VAN DYK & PIERRE PIENAAR – STRONGER TOGETHER 

Holiday flights are airborne, Ibiza’s floors are heaving, festival season’s in high gear and the weather, well, it seems to be done disgracing itself for now. Yes indeed, summer’s well and truly upon us. Something’s still amiss though and we reckon you’ve already put your finger on what that is! 

A hot-season embracing, see-you-down-the-front PvD floor-roar is what’s required and right on cue, everyone’s favourite trance vanguard drops one into July’s frame. (Didn’t seriously think he was going to leave you hanging, right?!) So break out yer summer clobber, lace up that clubbing rubber and get ready to have sun-season 2017 refined and thoroughly defined by the epic ‘Stronger Together’.

Without giving too much away, placing future talent in the spotlight will play a key part in Paul’s agenda over the next 12 months. That gets underway with his first side-by-side with the eminently gifted Pierre Pienaar. Through ‘Far Away’, and most recently ‘Higher State’, solo, Pierre’s already squared a number of sure-shot rockers into VANDIT’s net. Now the Namibian born-&-based producer is stepping up for his first PvD collab. 

Thematically, ‘Stronger Together’s centre of gravity remains close to the Spring-released uplifter ‘Touched By Heaven’. Instrumental to its core, Paul & Pierre construct a primetime-directed rhythm and tempo for the track. Those summertime sensibilities are writ 10ft large throughout, as the pair thread azure-ish harmonics, cursive synths and an absolute TKO of a mainline into its production. 

More lift than Boeing, greater thrust than Ferrari and purer summer sublimation than several rounds of mojitos, ‘Stronger Together’ is Trance to love on a cellular level. Best of all, it reaches Spotify and all good download shores today (21.07.17).

Above & Beyond’s first original collaboration single since 2010 (for those playing at home, that was ‘Anphonic’ with Kyau & Albert) sees the production powerhouse of Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness and Paavo Siljamäki link up with prolific San Franciscan, Spencer Brown.

‘Long Way From Home’ featuring the vocals of RBBTS (Anne Kalstrup & Hendrik Burkhard) is a gentle, melancholic wave of undulating melodies, underpinned by the quartet’s rounded, dancefloor-ready sound. Debuted at Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy 300 celebrations in Hong Kong, the song considers the experience of loneliness that besets many touring artists. Aptly, the first sketch of the track was laid down by Paavo and Spencer in a Melbourne hotel room - a very, very long way from home.

Says Paavo, “Both Spencer and myself know all too well what it's like being a touring musician.
Filled with totally amazing, high moments, but also lonely moments in hotel rooms far away from home. We'd both been travelling for hours feeling somewhat lost and lonely and ended up spending the day together talking about it all. Later that night, we found ourselves making a song about it all in a makeshift hotel room studio”

Spencer Brown has just finished a world tour with Above & Beyond, playing direct support to crowds across North America, Australasia and Europe. A star on the rise, Spencer is already a mainstay on Above & Beyond’s Anjunabeats imprint. The prolific 24 year old released his debut artist album, ‘Illusion Of Perfection’, on the label earlier this year.

Says Spencer, “ “Dream on little dreamer." A message that rung in my head after seeing Above & Beyond, as a fan, in 2014. After signing my music with Anjunabeats in 2016, our musical and personal relationship deepened. We’ve toured the world together. Now, we’ve penned this song - drawing deep from our hearts - about the crazy lives we lead.”

Road-tested and fine-tuned in front of sell-out crowds across Europe, ‘Long Way From Home’ feat. RBBTS is an early Christmas treat for Above & Beyond and Spencer Brown fans. Fans need not wait long for more. Both artists have packed schedules for the remainder of the year.

So, the wild ride continues. Thankfully, where there’s good friends and good music, you’re never that far from home.
