Planet earth makes an extra turn with the proggy power of Joseph Areas’ debut on AVA’s Blue label! He hits in with ‘Subtle Motion’ and ‘For An Instant’!

Based in Miami, American producer Joseph Areas is right at the beating heart of the US dance movement. But his beats stretch out far beyond the land of the supersized, as he stole the musical heart of AVA Recordings owner Andy Moor, and rocked his ‘Breaking The Silence Vol.2’ compilation with ‘Subtle Motion’.

After months of exclusivity, this contagious prog-trancer finally sees its releases. Subtle piano and strong vocal chops make ‘Subtle Motion’ a real stand-out track. ‘For An Instant’ rides that same deal, but takes you in with a playful, sturdy sound of warm, waving melody and thick, pounding bass. 


Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the finest trance labels from UK is of course AVA recordings headed by the talented Andy Moor who takes care of the high quality output that wins the playlists of the trance djs worldwide. Now the top USA producer Joseph Areas is about to bring shivers all over your unsuspected bodies with his double tracker   Subtle Motion / For An Instant both working for the inside and outside of the human body. Subtle Motion is a bazooka's size proglifting trancer that combines the best worlds of progressive, electro, tech, and dream trance in one package. Its rhythm is impossible to resist particularly its  catalytic feel good effect upon your senses.  The way that the choped vocals are combined with the electro trance beats, the huge synths and the soothing piano melody is noteworthy and for that reason I guess there so much interest and hype around this top track. The much in demand package is completed with the equally absorbing and mesmerizing For An Instant. It sounds more minimal and cheeky but it comes in full effect in its breakdown that the gigantic synthy melody is unleashed along with the female vocal chops that build the tension that is  released and healed on the main big room clubby  part. Top release to finish of 2011 in great style. Love IT!
