Solid Stone - Surge/Topor Dual Release

Canadian producer Elias Barouche of the Solid Stone project has released 2 fresh tracks, Surge and Torpor from Re*Brand/Armada.  Both are intense progressive trance tracks that really showcase his sound.  He began his journey in 2010 with this project and has already received support from headliners such as Above and Beyond, as well as featured on Armin Van Buuren's "A State of Trance" podcast.  I am excited to see what he has to offer for us in the future.  I'd keep a close eye on this guy, as he going to be climbing the charts very soon.  Pick it up exclusively on Beatport today, and other outlets in early September.

Basto - BONNY (Original Mix)

If ever there was any doubt that the modern dance music scene was forgetting it's underground rave origins, Basto provides an emphatic reminder that filthy bass culture is alive and kicking like never before. Buoyed by the support of some of the world's most respected DJ's (David Guetta and Sander Van Doorn included), the Belgian continues his siege into the headphones of those who matter with his latest banger, BONNY.

Echoing his previous hit I Rave You, spun by everyone from Tiesto to Madeon this summer, BONNY erupts with a drop that is sure to send shockwaves through the genre. The build up, reminiscent of an electronic Irish folk dance, is a beautifully crafted juxtaposition to the relentlessly driven bass that ensues.

Basto's original fusion of classic trance build ups and energetic dubstep drops looks certain to challenge the established collective of top DJ's, ready to exploit any lethargy amongst those at the forefront of the current scene.

Ferry Corsten & Chicane - One Thousand Suns

  

One of the masters of Trance, Ferry Corsten has teamed up with Chicane and released a set from Modena Records called "One Thousand Suns" today.  The Dutch producer has been producing trance music since the late 90's and is still going strong.  For those who do not know, Chicane is a British electronic act that has also been delivering amazing performances since the 90's.  I couldn't think of a better mix for this production.  This latest track has an incredibly chill melody that takes you into another world, as well as epically smooth vocals to back it.  Today's release includes the original mix, their club edit, as well as 4 remixes.  If you are a fan of trance, you owe it to yourself to pick this one up.  Check out Corsten at his Facebook and Twitter pages.  I also highly recommend that you check out Chicane's social media profiles as well: Facebook and Twitter.

Porter Robinson - Spitfire (Bonus Remixes) [FREE DOWNLOAD]

Team OWSLA coming in hot this morning with a little pre-holiday gift for everyone — a free, bonus remix package for two of the tracks on Porter Robinson’s Spitfire. I’ve been (im)patiently awaiting the release of Lazy Rich’s heavy, energetic remix of “Vandalism” for the past four months, so this was quite a pleasant surprise. Dirtyloud also takes on “Vandalism,” putting a dark and gritty spin on the track by folding in some ferocious synths. Finally, Bjorn Akesson’s unexpectedly pitch-perfect trance reboot of “Spitfire” is lush and haunting and might be the darkhorse best in show. The Swedish up-and-comer deftly builds off of Porter’s chord progressions to create an innovative and tightly-produced remix that sounds utterly fresh and ready for ASOT or TATW. Frankly, it reminds me a lot of “Je Envie De Toi,” which is high praise. Who knew that the glitchy, vaguely sinister “Spitfire” could lend itself so well to trance?
