Out now on Above & Beyond’s iconic Anjunabeats imprint, ilan Bluestone's new studio album ‘Impulse’ is his most personal outing to date.

At the forefront of progressive and trance for almost a decade, Ilan creates high energy trance with heart and soul. From barnstorming festival favourites ’43’, ‘Spheres’ and ‘Let Me Know’, to modern updates of genre classics like System F’s ‘Out Of The Blue’, Armin van Buuren’s ‘In And Out Of Love’ and OceanLab’s ‘On A Good Day’ and ‘Satellite’, his emotional, song-drive approach to dance music has earned him eleven genre chart No.1’s on Beatport and a legion of fans around the world.

His debut artist album, 2018’s ’Scars’, emphatically showcased the Bluestone sound. Broadening his repertoire with elements of dubstep, chillout and funk, ‘Scars’ cemented Ilan’s place as a headline Anjunabeats artist, with DJ support from Tiesto, Ferry Corsten and Oliver Heldens. The album has hit over 30 million streams. His tireless work ethic has been rewarded with the opportunity to perform at marquee festivals and venues: Electric Daisy Carnival, Creamfields, Tomorrowland, The Hollywood Palladium, Brooklyn Mirage, Madison Square Garden.

Songwriting takes centre stage on ‘Impulse’ - love found and lost, attachment and disengagement. A cast of familiar players has joined ilan for his second artist album.

Giuseppe de Luca returns to the fold with five vocal contributions. The natural peak-time successor to hits like ‘Bigger Than Love’ and ‘Frozen Ground’, ‘Look At Me Now’ is a guitar-driven anthem about loss. ‘Hopeless Dreamer’ provides a dash of 80s synth wave, while album closer ‘Love Is A Drug’ - the album’s buoyant, final crescendo - discusses ideas of rebirth and rejuvenation. “Great track, turn the snare up”, was the feedback provided by founding member of New Order, Joy Division and Monaco, Peter Hook, who Ilan and Giuseppe cover on ‘What Do You Want From Me?’.

EL Waves returned to the studio to follow up the pair’s 2018 hits ‘Will We Remain?’ and ‘Mama Africa’. Their latest, entitled ‘Tonight’, is a trademark, uplifting Bluestone anthem. ‘Stranger To Your Love’ and ‘Love Not Lust’ - both about Ilan’s relationships - feature Ellen Smith of Shadowlarks, who contributed ‘Rival’ to Ilan’s debut LP.

‘Impulse’ welcomes new collaborators into the fold as well. ‘Stay’ introduces Laura Zay. It’s Ilan’s first drum and bass track inspired by the music of his youth. The haunting voice of Gabriel & Dresden’s ‘Dangerous Power’ and ‘Underwater’ and Pryda ‘Niton (The Reason)’, Jan Burton provides two cuts: ‘Rule The World’ and ‘Underneath Moonlit Canopy’. Gid Sidgwick, another fellow Brit, sings on ‘Paid For Love’, which explores the emotional costs of falling in love.

Completing the album are two tracks with Ilan’s best friend and long-time production partner Maor Levi. ‘Three Kings’, alongside OTIOT is a vicious club instrumental and featured heavily in Ilan’s club shows before lockdown. Finally, ‘Hold On’ pairs Ilan and Maor with double platinum-selling singer-songwriter Alex Clare, whose 2011 hit ’Too Close’ was a top 40 record in both the U.K. and the US.

ilan Bluestone's 'Impulse' is out now on Anjunabeats.

Nipika - A Thousand Miles Away [Synth Collective]

Amir Nazari - Your Back (Original Mix)

Lyrics

I wake to silence, cold and wide,
No thoughts to chase, no one to guide.
The mirror stares but doesn’t show
The part of me I used to know.

The world moves fast, it doesn't wait,
While I stand still and contemplate.
This hollow space I carry deep,
It follows me, it steals my sleep.

Loneliness — my quiet friend,
You never break, you never bend.
You speak in thoughts I never share,
You live in rooms that aren't there.
Loneliness — a silent sound,
A heavy echo underground.
Not absence, but a fading voice
That never gave me any choice.

I walk through crowds, but walk alone,
A hundred eyes, yet none have known.
The noise is loud, but I can't hear,
Just empty words and distant fear.

The mask I wear is wearing thin,
It hides the war I fight within.
I fake a smile, I play the part,
But shadows camp around my heart.

Loneliness — you stay too long,
You turn my silence into song.
You paint the walls a shade of gray,
And never quite just walk away.
Loneliness — a quiet war,
Fought behind a closing door.
Not pain, not peace, just endless drift,
A sinking stone, a missing lift.

Some say it's just a phase, a storm,
But storms at least can feel warm.
This is the cold that doesn’t melt,
The kind of truth that’s rarely felt.

The Mainside Project - Loneliness

Please love and pity my reworked track Goodboys & Nu Aspect & AVAION - Blindspot. The work in the original is powerful as it is, but I had to do this rework. Enjoy listening to it.

Johan Gielen - Balearic Reflection now available on Coldharbour.

Download/Stream: http://coldharbour.complete.me/balearicreflection

He has been a master of the craft for over two decades, and fewer have hit the sweet spot of interpreting the beauty and ambiance of Ibiza better at that time than trance don Johan Gielen. He adds another feather to his cap with the stunning Balearic Reflection.

It shouldn't have been much of a surprise that Markus Schulz deliberately sought out the Dutchman as the key component in mapping out his overall vision for In Search of Sunrise 16. And in doing so, we are delighted to have Johan present his first single on Coldharbour Recordings.

With all the hallmarks of beauty illuminated by the sun, Balearic Reflection's infectious vibes will make this a popular choice for many playlists and DJ sets throughout the final lap of this summer season. Ibiza may be only in our dreams this year, but Balearic Reflection, and its impact on In Search of Sunrise 16, will live long in the memory.
