Art Of Trance - A Time Before Time (Torsten Fassbender Remix) PLATIPUS PREVIEW

1. Art Of Trance - Mariana [Original Mix]
2. Art Of Trance - Mariana [Torsten Fassbender Remix] 

After his autumnal ‘Walk In The Deer Park’, Simon Berry perseveres with his perennial pursuit of creating uncompromising, individualistic compositions. 

Plummeting to new depths and immersing us into the submarinal trench warfare of this latest creation … here is ‘Mariana’.

Commencing the prolonged oceanic descent of the Original mix, waves of modulating hydrophonic synthesis gently flow over the surging subsonic undercurrent with a relentless descent into the utopian abyss.

Veteran Berlin synth boffin and nautical naval gazer Torsten Fassbender takes the helm once again and charters a submersible solution. Cranking up the pressure to unfathomable depths, a tidal wave barrage of voluminous bass propels a vertical passage towards a deep backdrop of unworldly synchronised melodic synth sequences, unearthing beautifully exotic aquaflora and ear fauna, with what is quite possibly Torsten’s finest remix to date.

Indira Paganotto is an unstoppable force in the music industry right now. After a killer 8-week summer residency at Amnesia in Ibiza for Metamorfosi, with a weekly line up curated by Indira, she took ARTCORE around the world, as the label expands at a rapid rate with a global tour spanning into the first part of 2025.

ARTCORE's presence at ADE was unavoidable, with their brand takeover of the X BANK store for their new winter merchandise launch, it only makes sense they return with a  colossal new VA release in November. A total of 20 tracks and 23 artists, ARTCORE ADE 2025 Vol.1 will be released on the 7th November.

Whilst ARTCORE welcome back artists on the VA who have already released on the label  including ZESHIN, Giorgia Angiuli, and Gray Cosmo, the other 7 artists are brand new. Four  of them are from Brazil, including Dudiish, Henrique Camacho, duo Special M and Tijah &  Dang3r, alongside Israeli trance producer California Sunshine and Nikrom Nataraj representing a remote town in the Himalayas.

Dudiish introduces the 10-track VA with 'Carolina Hi Tech'. By sampling samba anthem 'Carolina, Carol Bela', the Santa Catarina native stylishly weaves flamenco strings with punishing drum patterns employing a series of unpredictable peaks and troughs throughout. A dramatic shift in atmosphere follows with a brand-new artist, Unicorn Blood with their very first release 'Wandering Star'. The enchanting ambience forged early on from melismatic vocals and far eastern instruments soon clash with an onslaught of tough percussion, making for a gloriously inventive piece that traverses contrasting musical cultures. ZESHIN, the alias of Pushmaster Discs head Mattia Trani, pulls no punches with 'Game Over'. Unrestrained but still methodical, the Italian live maestro whizzes together a vibrant concoction of sprightly synth patterns which bubble away to a restless vocal sample in an effervescence of psy-laced electronica. 

California Sunshine's 'Ascending Light' is a fine example of such. A mercurial track that features an offbeat amalgam of whirring trance melodies, bending guitar licks and ethereal pads to produce a mesmerising electronic composition. Henrique Camacho, who's noted for his hi-octane, hi-tech style, brings a tornado-like swirl of energy with his contribution 'Clear Your Mind'. Swelling with unorthodox textures, the track hurtles through measures of safari effects, sitar scales and aquatic bass. 

Italian, multi-instrumentalist Giorgia Angiuli makes a welcome return with her enchanting, vocal-led number 'Rising'. With a tightly woven bass and kick at its core, the track steers proceedings towards a darker dimension by way of echoing, atmospheric synths and astral pads. Sao Paulo duo Special M, who are revered for their chart-topping psych-trance, consistently set a high bar with their music and 'By My Side' is no exception. Tense and brooding from the get-go the beat burns with a white-hot intensity as drum rolls loop around warbling basslines and the MC's blistering lyrics. 

As the VA reaches its final third, Tijah & Dang3r are at the ready with 'Om Namah'. By incorporating this most prominent of Hindu mantras, the duo cultivates a bewitching dance cut backed by a stirring drum beat and brimming with rippling, electro-rock musicality. The supremely talented Gray Cosmos' offer up a killer progressive techno wonder with 'Oyebe'. The track initially creaks with suspense but the tension lifts following the inception of a Cherokee inspired vocal arrangement that rings out over a twinkling soundscape of cosmic chords. 

At the final juncture of yet another beautifully diverse ARTCORE journey is Nikom Nataraj with 'Dance of the Lord Shiva'. An undeniably anthemic closer, the track captivates with its crying guitar solo that shimmers atop a snappy back beat of kicks and drone effects.
