This place takes me
Gravity pulls me down and breaks me
Need to pick my feet up of the floor
This taste consumes me
It makes me feel all that I could be
Again and again I need it more

Bright lights blind me
They focus on my anxiety
Trying hard not to come undone
I won't explain why my fates changing paths again
Please be still my aching heart

So take your hands and cover me
Lead to me to a place where I can be
Take this heart, believe in me
Lead me to a place where I can breath

   
 Dimitri Kechagias review: Amsterdam Trance records is one of the finest vocal trance labels with hit after hit and with great artists collaborating with some of the most beautiful voices in trance. Xtigma well known for his well produced trance tracks collaborates with the sweet and fragile voice of Sarah Russell for the anthemic Take Your Hand. As always the release comes with a fat remix package including the brightest new trance stars in the scene. The Original mix is a solid pumping uplifting trancer with balearic style melodies and  Sarah winning the admiration of many with her  performance that simply stands out. Summer Mix is a tribal progressive trancer with tough percussion,  rough basslines, twinkle style melodies on top and great feel good distorted vocal lines that come to add in the whole uplifting euphoric atmosphere. The breakdown reveals a huge piano melody, great synths that Take You by the hand and introduce you to the magical sacred world of trance. The always  great talent Spark7 reshapes the original with his progressive trance style that he uses deep basslines, driving energetic basslines,vocal lines, blissful melodies and bubbly beats. You just press play and let your heart go boom with it. Spark 7 at its best once again with a breakdown that will be hard to leave you untouched. Last but not least the successful producer Michael Badal turns the original into his own unique brand of progressive trance that is travelling, dreamy and very danceable at the same time. Big hair raising synthy lead will drive everybody crazy dancing and feeling the love for trance on any summer dancefloor. Pure quality material from Amsterdam Trance Records that is a classic already! Love IT!
