Binary Finary & Kris Maydak - Mainframe (Wrechiski Remix) [Preview]

Wrechiski is an up and coming producer from Brazil that is already being supported by the likes of W&W and Ferry Corsten. Myon & Shane 54 also just signed two tracks from him to their own record label, Ride recordings. This remix of Binary Finary & Kris Maydak's "Mainframe" was featured on the latest International Departures episode 200. The interesting mix between electro and progressive trance has caught many people's attention and it really is something special. I believe Wrechiski is someone to watch for in the future!

Craig Connelly & Christina Novelli - Black Hole (Jorn van Deynhoven Remix)

Jorn van Deynhoven has been producing some really great music recently, and he must be on the top of the world right now. Just a few hours ago, he track was selected by the fans of A State of Trance to be the anthem of A State of Trance 650. Don't get me wrong, that song is absolutely wonderful. However, it is his remix for Craig Connelly & Christina Novelli's "Black Hole" that I am writing about.

The half Dutch, half German producer puts his magic uplifting touch to an already wonderful summer trance tune. Jorn van Deynhoven does an incredible job with this remix by increasing the pace, and putting the emphasis on the chord progressions while also keeping the beautiful vocals of Christina Novelli. This track has already been recognized by numerous DJ's and is yet another awesome Jorn van Deynhoven production! Enjoy!

Andy Duguid featuring Jaren - 7even (Original Mix and Mark Sixma Remix)

If you haven't listened to "7even" then prepare for a very emotional uplifting trance track from Andy Duguid. The song features very powerful and elegiac vocals from Jaren alongside a great melody. If you don't know who the song is dedicated to, then prepare for even more emotion as it was released in honor of Olivia Downie: a 7-year old cancer victim who passed away last year. The track was featured on Above & Beyond's Group Therapy podcast as the record of the week due to the brilliance of the track and the moving story behind it.

Also included is Mark Sixma's remix. Although it isn't as crazy emotional as the original, it's a very solid trance track that should hopefully help to bring the mood back up.

Enjoy.

Matt Bukovski vs. Andy Elliass & Abys - Cheops (Original Mix)

This is a beautiful uplifting trance track that was played by Armin on ASOT 597. Matt Bukovski and Andy Elliass are not names that are usually heard in the EDM scene, but I liked the feel to this track as soon I heard it on ASOT. Enjoy!
