REVIEW: Markus Schulz - Digital Madness out on Coldharbour/Armada Music


1.Digital Madness (Original Mix)

Presenting the official anthem for Transmission 2011 - Digital Madness.

On the Saturday November 19th, inside the vast surround of the Czech capital’s O2 Arena, Transmission will once again reign. Long ranked as a world-class trance event, it will bring together clubbers and music lovers from the Czech Republic, Europe and far, far beyond. Providing the anthem absolute for the night and for the third year running, will be one of the world’s most accomplished electronic dance music producers…  Markus Schulz.

Celebrated for their high-concept events, the theme of this year’s Transmission is Digital Madness. On the Global DJ Broadcast World Tour episode from Ibiza in early September, Markus gave his auditory anthem for the event its radio premiere. ‘Digital Madness’ - the track is a heavy calibre stadium-sized hell-raiser, which dynamically pitch-bends, distorts and cranks the synths inexorably to a titan of a climax.


Digital Madness has gone on to become one of the highlights of Markus’ livesets - from his performance for DJ Mag’s Top 100 Awards at Passenger Terminal in Amsterdam; to the Escape from Wonderland extravaganza held near to Los Angeles. The track has also received radio support through Armin van Buuren’s A State of Trance and Corsten’s Countdown with Ferry Corsten.

Historically, Markus’ Transmission connections have run deep. He’s already recorded anthems for two previous events (‘The New World’ and last year’s ‘Future Cities’) and having played the last six Transmission years, he’s their resident in all but name. So taken was he by the city (and his on and off the decks experiences there) that in February of this year Markus’ based his annual city mix comp in Prague.
Come November 19th, ‘Digital Madness’ the track will resound around the 15,000-capacity 02 stadia, musically capturing and defining the visually and sonically spectacle that is Digital Madness.
                     
Prague: prepare to receive your incoming Transmission.


Dimitri Kechagias review: The master of the ceremony is back with another stunning big room release that is of course the theme of the Transmission parties. Markus Schulz  has massive impact in the progress of EDM music and  he even is the  one  that has pushed in the mainroom and on the big dancefloors the deep bassy progressive trance style. Now is back with another track for the big arenas ready to blow and explode right in your face. Digital Madness is a powerful emotional ride through dark basslines, driving tech trance beats and of course in the breakdown the large distorted ravey riff surfaces at the top to create total hysteria in any club area and festivals worldwide. When the main beat returns and that hook line plays you can imagine what the result will be.  Its of course so well produced that you will enjoy the tight and firm beats and the clean and sharp sounds. Markus thanks so much for offering us a wicked theme to finish off with style 2011.
