Kuala Lumpur natives Simon Lee & Alvin come to DS-R for the first time with the impressive 'Across The Sea' showcasing the Malaysian tastemaker's unique ability to merge euphoric hands-in-air vocals with tough, grinding Trance elements.
'Across The Sea' serves as an intriguing insight into Simon Lee & Alvin's perfectly balanced production style. Sitting between elegant, rippling chords and melodies, 'Across The Sea' features a delicate vocals all propelled by an energising bass line, gritty FX and searching atmospherics.
Tying up the release Andre Visior turns up the pace and injects his trademark driving sound into Simon Lee & Alvin's Original. Andre's increasingly popular name in the Trance scene turns out another superb rendition. Retaining the Original's emotive edge whilst injecting pace and drive, Andre's Remix is a perfect finish to an accomplished release.
Welcoming Simon Lee & Alvin to the label for the first time alongside Andre Visior, this is 'Across The Sea'.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]The original mix is a beautiful balearic proglifting beauty that flows and floats nicely but the trance legend Andre Visior who is on fire at the moment does his best and manage to impress us deeply with an unforgettable uplifting take.[/content]
