Following his experimental five-track Do Androids Dream EP earlier in the year, Anjunabeats innovator Andrew Bayer returns with another bold, artistic concept in his ‘Anamnesis Trilogy’.
Releasing a track every month from October through to the end of the year, Andrew Bayer’s ‘Anamnesis Trilogy’ is a return to the classics… reimagining past inspirations from trance and progressive’s golden eras and bringing them up to date with a 2015 twist in Bayer’s unique, inimitable style. Far from simple pastiches, though, they blend a timeless, lost sensibility with typically forward-thinking production and curveball twists.
A spine-tingling piano led production, ‘Celestial’ sees Andrew return to his melodic roots; an emotive composition that explores his love for slow burning progressive records.
Dimitri Kechagias review: If you ask me who I consider to be the most influential artist on Anjunabeats at the moment I will answer without doubts Andrew Bayer. We are dealing with a modern genious who loves so much what he does and he produces music that will pass easily the test of time. His brand new track Celestial is brilliant as he moves back to the melodic emotional arrangements that have the groove and amazing euphoric synthy themes to make you explode on the dancefloor. Celestial is based on chunky techy basslines, punchy pulsating grooves and superb sensitive and truly melancholic piano theme in the breakdown. So sad and deep that you are obliged to remember things from the past that can be a friend, a lover or family member that recently passed on the other side. The climax is totally different from the breakdown as the big epic classic trance synths are taking over the control of the track and provide the ultimate trance stimulation that will transfer you to the best days in Ibiza and beyond. Magnificent sounds coming from a superhuman. #PureGold Love It
"The Anamnesis Trilogy is all about reviving, reinterpreting and reimagining what I feel are classic - and lost - messages and motifs in trance and progressive. In this EDM-era, big room music has become obsessed with high impact, instant gratification and, to be honest, absolutely uninspiring and boring arrangements. I was listening back over my favourite trance and progressive records, and remembering when dance music was about a sense of journey and progression. Records where there was more than just a breakdown and Bro-DM drops... records where you sometimes moved across what felt like three different - and equally mind-expanding - records just to get the REAL moment in the track. The three records in the Anamnesis Trilogy are all inspired by this sensibility and era, but 2015 Bayer style." ~Andrew Bayer
