Some albums simply represent a pivotal point in the history of electronic dance music. One of those, is the legendary Chicane album of ‘Behind The Sun’. Officially released in 2000, carrying the unforgettable sounds of ‘Saltwater’, ‘Autumn Tactics’ and ‘Don’t Give Up’, it is one of those long-players that deserves a top spot in the collection of each music lover. 13 years later, the album sees the daylight once again, this time re-mastered though…and including a brand new, re-booted version of ‘Don’t Give Up’!  

According to Nick Bracegirdle, the mastermind behind Chicane, ‘Behind The Sun’ was a reflection of a year in the life of Chicane. Well there’s one thing to conclude from that: it was a very good year. Including collaborations with Bryan Adams, Maire Brennan, Justine Suissa and the classics of ‘No Ordinary Moment’, ‘Halcyon’ and ‘Overture’, ‘Behind The Sun’ shows us exactly how timeless Chicane’s music is.

Catalyst ‘The Chamber’  [PLATMU89]

1. Catalyst ‘The Chamber’ (Movements One to Three)
2. Catalyst ‘Seahorse’

Catalyst is the solo project of London based Mark Brogden who is the younger brother of Paul Brogden (POB / Union Jack).

Conceived over 22 years ago, ‘The Chamber’ was originally released in ’93 on Colin Faver’s influential label Rabbit City (early Aphex Twin / Spiral Tribe etc), after it was performed at the legendary Knowledge night at SW1 Club in London and featured on a mix tape by Sven Vath.

The Chamber is an evocation of an incredible journey that takes the mind through wonderful realms of science fiction, glimpsing on possibilities presented by advanced extra-terrestrial forms. Strong orchestration, fine control of synthesised sounds, intense arpeggios and pacy rhythms propel the listener forward through the three interconnecting movements and their internal passages. Experience the whole journey in this 21 minute electronic masterpiece.

Movements and their passages:

Movement One: Approach, aurora, marching, acceleration, grande hall
Movement Two: Electric data storm, data communique overload
Movement Three: Time, space, motion

Seahorse: Brush through the shallow warm tropical waters, air pockets bubbling up from the seabed and underwater plant-life gently sway. The expanse opens up and the seahorse is revealed in all it’s enigmatic glory.

Catalyst ‘The Chamber’ / ‘Seahorse’ is available on 19th Jan 2015 on Platipus Records.

Another fine atmospheric piece of craftsmanship from Simon Berry’s solo venture following on from ‘Humans’ in 2014.

Italy’s Gai Barone has has rightfully earned his place as one of the leading figures in the progressive house and trance scene and delivers one of his best remixes to date.

French born Rick Pier O’Neil, who now resides in Mexico delivers an equally blistering mix.

Pre-order + physical rewards available here: electronicopus.com/support/

The wait for BT's anticipated "Electronic Opus" album ends October 12th when it officially releases to the public. 14 beloved BT tracks have been reworked and reimagined into a fantastical exploration of classical arrangements, electronic dance frequencies, and experimental sound editing techniques. Thanks to the dedication and creativity of the production team at TanZ, conductor Eímear Noone, Milk & Honey Management, Tommy Tallarico, and BT, "Electronic Opus" signifies a shift in the way dance music and EDM will be perceived from here on out.

Art Of Trance ‘Octopus - The 2015 Remixes’  [PLATMU92]

1. Art Of Trance ‘Octopus’ (Gai Barone’s Gallery Remix)
2. Art Of Trance ‘Octopus’ (Perfect Stranger Remix)
3. Art Of Trance ‘Octopus’ (Rick Pier O’Neil Remix)
4. Art Of Trance ‘Octopus’ (Matt Holliday Remix)
5. Art Of Trance ‘Octopus’ (Gai Barone’s Smileodontic Remix)
6. Art Of Trance ‘Octopus’ (Original Mix Remastered)

Originally released back in ’95, ‘Octopus’ is one of Simon Berry’s strongest Art Of Trance releases to date. Later that year, it was remixed by R&S artist Capricorn (of 20Hz fame) and Man With No Name, so it seemed that after 20 years new remixes were surely justified.

Italy’s fast rising star Gai Barone has delivered quite possibly the finest remix he’s ever done with his Gallery Remix. Not only that, he decided to do a second remix for good measure.

Israel’s Yuli from Perfect Stranger serves up a very solid mix which stays closer to the original.

Frenchman, Rick Pier O’Neil returns with another sublime slice of sunrise.

Englishman, Matt Holliday offers a spacious and textured soundscape for his interpretation and is followed by a remastered version of the original.

Art Of Trance ‘Octopus - The 2015 Remixes’ is available on 30th November 2015 on Platipus Records exclusively from Beatport and from 14th Dec on all other portals.

"We Found Love" f/ Calvin Harris, Rihanna's newest track from her upcoming album available 11/21/11

We Found Love

Every once in a while an artist comes along who reminds you why you fell in love with music in the first place. When a singer can tap into that passion and effectively translate it into his music, it transcends time, genres, and cultures, making for true artistry. East Coast singer/songwriter Lee Wilson has such a passion. and his debut Dopewax single, presented by four-time Grammy Award nominee Kenny Dope, "Turn You Up" is a prime example. It's the lead single from Lee's highly anticipated album project which promises to quench one's thirst for quality. A crossover hybrid of many styles, not the least of which include House, Pop and R&B, this debut single is complete with lush vocals, hypnotizing harmonies, clean beats and plush chords, that would make even Pharrell smile. Lee Wilson's story is about to be told and we can't wait to share it with the world.

Fortune (Expanded Edition)

Sweet Love

Dear All,

I am very excited to share with you the first single from my forthcoming #EDM album on @Armadamusic. This song, a collaboration with Arty and Nadia, began several years ago in demo form when I emailed a rough track to Nadia. After several months of riffing back and forth on lyrical notes and counterpoint lines, I began the lengthy and arduous task of comping together a meaningful and poignant vocal. I often compare this process to pointillism in art. It takes an extraordinary amount of time, but in the end when it's worth it, it's well worth it.

This track then sat on my proverbial studio shelf for about 18months. During this time, one of the myriad of pieces I was composing was a 6/4 64 bpm orchestral composition that had these protracted movements of cello, vibraphone, metalaphone and handbells. It occurred to me, somewhere I think I have a vocal, in a related key and tempo / signature. I dug around on the server and bingo...dorian it was. Nadia's vocal was a near perfect fit and worked amazingly with some of the orchestral and small instrument (TBU style) orchestration.

Enter...Arty. At this time Arty and I had been talking over DM on Twitter about collaborating on a track together. I sent him both the vocal and orchestral things we'd written and he sent me back beautiful percolating and driving percussion, an incredible undulating tresillo ostinato synth line and a beautiful drop.

This part of the process began to culminate during this summer. As I was beginning to dig in to Trevor Wisharts brilliant new version of CDP. For those of you that don't know, CDP is a command based DSP programing language that calls opcodes and commands in either OSX terminal or DOS. I've been using it in both for many years but this track is the first time I've really gotten my hands dirty so to speak, on something as prominent as a vocal and Nadia's provided the perfect clay. After about 100+ hours of pure sound design, spectral blurring..distort repeating and the epic PSOW and modify brassage, you can hear the results of these sonic transformations throughout "Must be the Love", most notably at the very beginning. I for one have never heard anything like this.

More than anything, this is a beautiful and simple song that speaks directly to me, and I hope to you as well. After all, music is first and foremost a language to speak the unspoken directly from breathing life form to breathing life form.

Thanks for listening.
Always,
_BT

Give Me Love

This is the first composition on my summer release "If the Stars are Eternal, so are You and I". You can buy it on iTunes here : http://tinyurl.com/IfTheStarsAreEternal

This work, features some new convolution topology morphing ideas (executed in CDP) and hours of painstaking molecular level editing in the drop. It was worked on in 3 movements, similar to my working modality on This Binary Universe.

As it relates to the "drop". I'd like to refer you to the last 4 minutes of Mad Skillz Mic Check. That's 1999. *rests case your honor*

In digging around in some of these new FFT/Spectral/convolution ideologies, I've come up with some compelling new addendum's for both Stutter Edit and other unreleased technologies (with my software partners iZotope).

The video is a collaborative work with the pioneering Randy Halverson and Subtractive. I can't wait for you all to see this. Links below.
