Its the Andrew K remix of V-Sag's 'Thespian' thats got everyone talking at the moment. We're big fans of the original but the remix takes it to new heights` a techy prog workout layered with sparkling keyboard riffs` stabs and ultra-warm bassline groove to go along with punchy drums. With added production input from Kasey Taylor you know this one's gonna be big.
The first Pure Substance release since signing their brand new UK distribution deal which has been getting a steady caning from both Hernan Cattaneo and Anthony Pappa. The original mix is deep synth-filled progressive with a catchy guitar riff and sexy chord overlays. On the remix is Kosmas Epsilon {Deep/Heavy Rotation/Hypemuzik} who brings his trademark driving beats and luscious sounds to the table.
Swift went quiet for some time but return with a vengence here with three absolutely essential tunes from V Sag` El Greco & Dj Tarkan. V Sag is first up with a deep druggy Tenaglia flavored progressive tune with slick percussion` dark bouncey throbbing bassline` druggy effects making you feel like you're falling into a K hole. If you're into the Spanish hypnotic house sound check in wiht Dj Tarkan's 'Ha Pardon' a big tune right now for Thomas Penton.
V Sag aka Vasilis Sagonis returns from his well received ep on the Swift imprint and teams up with fellow Greek producer Dpen for this release on David Gausa's & David Ferrero's Sutil imprint. 'Dark Inside' is as promised` dark and twisted very much like a Twisted or Magna or Beat Freak record with hard hitting tribal beats` trippy effected sounds and atmospherics and a late night drug fuelled vibe. Remix comes courtesy of Dariush (Yoshitoshi) who provides a funkier more progressive / electro flavored mix which gets deeper with awesome italo styled pads` bumping synth arpeggios and funky driving beats.
2 mixes of this bubbly trancer from Vincent De Moor whose previous productrions have graced labels such as XL and Deal. A side original mix has a sweet vocal from a very Kate Bush sounding singer called Divine and the B side features a purely instrumental mix.
Emerging out of relative obscurity` V Sag has taken the progressive and tribal worlds by storm. His recent releases on Sutil and Swift completely blew us away and Vasilis Sagonas once again completly blows our minds with 'The Cypriot Remixes'. First up V Sag takes on Native's 'Believe In Me' and drops a beautiful deep and pumping percussive progressive mix that uses the original vocal to amazing effect with dark effected pads jacking swinging beats and layer upon layer of awesome melodies and effects. On the flip V Sag reworks Andrew K & Simuch's 'Mar De Oro' into an ethereal progressive house anthem. WOW!

Vadim Zhukov is one of trance's rising talents. His pristine productions feature effervescent epic melodies` crisp clean beats and striking programming shines through the crop of banal mediocrity that is much of today's trance scene. Here Vadik returns with two such stellar productions that have been getting much airtime from the likes of Tiesto` Corsten and Van Dyk.

Label boss Valex drops this stunning reworking of Andy C/Origin Unknown's 'Valley Of The Shadows' which comes at you in a whole new light. Valex takes all the best samples and elements of the original and loads in more dark` twisted and downright evil synth sounds and fx all riding on the back of a pumping hard house beat. On the flip the track 'Marshons' samples the hook from Marmion's timeless 'Schoneborg' turning it into a blistering hard house anthem.
Valex can always be counted on to drop the bomb and they've done it once again with this fuel-injected slab of UK hard house pressure sporting a nasty remix from man of the moment Phil York {Hardtimez/Tranzlation}. The dark dirty original mix works up into a monster hoover frenzy that will not dissapoint. York's remix jacks the tempo up and comes at you HARD.
The new Nitrox label takes you back to the days when UK hard dance was fun` bouncy and full of energy. The original track is fueled by a Nick Sentience-bassline` sped up rave stabs and tight kicks plus a clever vocal sample that along with the hoovers gives this one an old school Tripoli Trax meets Tinrib vibe. Justin Bourne's remix is on the darker and techier side and will appeal to all lovers of that more evil sound!
Valex is back with a tuff new single thats currently tearing up the UK hard dance scent at the moment with confirmed support from Paul Glazby` Superfast Oz` Equinox and Anne Savage. The original uses big dirty stabs and a withering b-line to set the mood early on before adding gated fx` acid spurts and a massive energetic breakdown. Remixers Paul Janes & Ilogik dial up even more compression in their beats while adding some crazy stabs and riffs of their own.
