Robert Lidstroem - Recitation

"Recitation", my breakthrough track in 2002-2003. Made quite a buzz with the help of Misja Helsloot and Armin van Buuren. Armin had the Misja Helsloot Remix as "Tune of the Week" 5 times in a row and opened his NYE gig in NY with it. It opened alot of doors to me. I got invited to play at clubs, free shots in the bars, hang out with ALOT of cool people. The "Original Mix" never made it onto the vinyl sadly, but had a life of its own through FTPs and Napster back then. The "Radio Edit" got used as a theme-track for a event called Tranceatlantic in Stockholm, Sweden. My biggest track to this point, now available for all of you to enjoy, legally!

Robert Lidstroem - Recitation (Original Mix)

"Tribute To Gorgeous Mix". In 2009 i decided to pay tributes to the best club me and my brother, @ericlidstroem ever visited. Club Gorgeous was actually named Club IN and was located in Copenhagen. But on Wednesdays, Club IN turned into Club Gorgeous, and it was heaven! 50 minute trainride from me in Sweden, we met people along the way, and it was always a blast! Me and my brother eventually got VIP-entrance to the club, and we were treated very well there, especially by a legend called Michael Splint and his then to be wife, Sasja.

Champagne would fall from the heavens and we went open to close more then once! This club had its haydays in 2001-2002 when trance-royalty like Armin van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Graham Gold, Cosmic Gate and many many more played there! And the atmosphere, it was crowded like, i dont know, and you could shake the DJs hand directly from the floor.

My humble tribute was a new take on my track Recitation, a little touch up. Not released, and it didnt make its way on to the internet much, it seems. But here it is! Enjoy!

Robert Lidstroem - Recitation (Tribute To Gorgeous Mix)

Another fairly unknown remix from 2003 by Paul Moelands (of Octagen and Re:Locate-fame!). I never knew this was made, even back in the day, but as i kept an eye out on the interwebs this came floating by. Its a proper great remix, by a really great producer. Paul went on to make huge tracks like Re:Locate - Waterfall and was a big name both for Galactive and Captivating (Armada), he also worked at Armada as Creative Director! Enjoy!

Robert Lidstroem - Recitation 2008 (Eric Lidstroem Nutid Remix)

"Recitation", my breakthrough track in 2002-2003. After a couple of months Recitation started to get remixes here and there. I had no part in deciding, i dont think any label was involved. People just made remixes and released online. As i now try to catalogue the releases/productions/remixes, i found this one again. Dont know much about Airforce, more than that he is a fellow Swedish, longtime, trance-producer.So if you see this feel free to contact me about the story behind the remix! Enjoy!

Robert Lidstroem - Recitation (Samuelzone Remix)

"Recitation", was actually all around in 2003! And what to do to gain more "roll"? Make a high-energy, 2min56sec Radio Edit, ofcourse! So i did! This was even kind of a "theme" for a promotional video by RotoR, a swedish eventcompany that had tranceevents at famed "Docklands" in Stockholm back in the day! See the video below!

Robert Lidstroem - Recitation (Radio Edit)

Can you say "breakthrough". This is the one, the magic, the holy grail! The Misja Helsloot Remix was commisioned by the label, for the single release. It has a slower, different vibe to it, but boy did it hit! I will be forever in debt to Misja for making this, and his connection to Armin did help! Thanks to official "Lidstroem Sound Republic"-archive-worker @ericlidstroem for digging out this quite impressive info:

"the Misja Helsloot remix of Robert track "Recitation" was featured in ASOT episode 083, 084, 085, 086, 087, 089, 095 and the Transa remix of "My Spirit" was featured in ASOT episode 113 (with Lange as a guest DJ). Also the Robert Lidstroem remix of my Sturmkraft track "Revolution" was featured in episode 95 (Misja Helsloot as a guest DJ)".

So without further ado! Play, share, download and.....

Enjoy!

Robert Lidstroem - Recitation (Misja Helsloot Remix)

Time for something fresh! Or a new take on an old classic, atleast! "Recitation" is sort of my middle name, since it was released in 2002, i havent been able to top it! Champagne would fall from the heavens, VIP-entry was a day-to-day-thing, rubbing elbows with Armin, Ferry, Marco, just another day in the office! Good times!

So this version...Its no secret that i've always been a huge admirer of Rank 1 and Piet & Benno. Their live-performances at Sensation 2001 and Trance Energy are the stuff of legends! This version just started as a joke back in august 2024, with the idea of "what if???". So i did just that! A pounding drum, clean off drumrolls, crashes, and swooshes! 

Imagine just having a sequencer and big frickin cutoff-knob! Thats about it! Now dont take this too seriously as its mostly just a humble homage to the legendary RANK 1!
