REVIEW: Daniel Lesden & Mekka - Aurora out on Borderline Music


Daniel Lesden has fast become an exciting name with a more psy-trance approach to his music, while still keeping elements of melodic, uplifting trance. His last appearance on the label saw him remixing Mac & Mondays awesome track Yoruba.

This time he teams up with JOOF Recordings regular Mekka to create Aurora, a monster of a progressive track which oozes the kind of style and quality seen in the late 90's early 00's from the (back then) progressive house genre.

Oh how times have changed!

We think you'll love this just as much as we do - its doesn't have a typical done to death riff, the build that everyone else is doing, or a boring stripped back drop. Its a builder, laden with quality and unique arrangement.

This is Borderline Music, this is Aurora!



Dimitri Kechagias review: At the nearby picturesque city of York is based Activa's label Borderline Music. The exceptional record label manage to stand out from the crowd and get high placements at the various download shops trance charts. The brand new release is an exceptional mixture of well produced psy trance with heavy doses of acid and magnificent melodic themes running through it. The result is the track Aurora by Daniel Lesden & Mekka. High class composition that can be played on melodic uplifting trance and psy trance sets alike. The psy kick and bassline is present along with various colourful euphoric sunny Ibiza styles synthy themes, airy pads and great atmosphere as well. The track has as a strong asset that it builds slowly and adds strong sound layers until to reach that climax that melodies and rough acid are working together to mesmerise the audience and win its attention. It's one of those tracks that can capture your imagination and is brave attempt to cross the forbidden boundaries between the two trance camps and bridge their separate worlds. In my opinion many influences in any track can benefit the final result and on this track it's easy to understand how much the variety of sounds and composition techniques have enhanced the mouthwatering final result that is Aurora. #PureGold Love It
