REVIEW: Solarstone with Giuseppe Ottaviani - Falcons out on Black Hole

1. Solarstone Extended Mix
2. John O’Callaghan Mix
3. Giuseppe Ottaviani OnAir Edit
4. Video Edit

Chasing hard on the heels of ‘Fireisland’s runaway floor success, Solarstone is straight back onto the single frontlines this month. True to form, his next opus again comes hard-locked to his #PureTrance mandate. This time out he’s been sharing studio space with another established master of the sound, Italy’s Giuseppe Ottaviani. The result is the EDM ebullience of ‘Falcons’.

Since his third studio album began penetrating the EDM consciousness in the spring, ‘Pure’s tracklist has brought a scene-stabilizing rush of audio, that’s been embraced by the trance Cognoscenti.

‘Fireisland’, ‘Pure’ and ‘The Spell’ have all spelt floor uproar, but the gear is about to shift up once again!

With its bold, thundering drums, accelerating bass and fluent sub-melodies, ‘Falcons’ sets out its stall. Using exhilarated note & chord progressions and pulse-quickening transitions, minute-on-minute Richard and Giuseppe stoke its Big Room atmosphere. Then, just when you think it can’t get any bigger, they deploy ‘Falcons’ angelic female harmonic and deal-sealing up-rushing mainline.

Working its remix angles, there’s another fully badged trance purist standing by to retool. John O’Callaghan zeroes in with bulldozing beats and sky-raking synths, bringing it, at the top of the drop, to a euphoric climactic conclusion.

Giuseppe Ottaviani’s Live Edit mix and the Video 2 version complete the package and the fourth single from ‘Pure’ is ready to ride summer out in suitably bombastic style.

                                  




Dimitri Kechagias review: Trance is for sure  the music style that loves freedom and the trance tracks offer the impression to the listener that he/she is flying without moving. Solarstone teams up with Giuseppe Ottaviani for the uplifting trance collaboration of the year. From the one side  Rich "Solarstone", the high quality producer/dj and radio host who has the ability to compose very strong pure trance melodic themes and on the other Giuseppe Ottaviani, the Italian sound wizard who delivers powerful trance anthems that become instant classics. When these real legends and beloved figures in the trance scene collaborate you can expect only the highest quality outcome and the truth without exaggeration is that they manage to leave us speechless. The package includes 3 great versions. The Solarstone pure remix is a massive uplifting trancer of the highest quality with powerful beats, energetic body moving driving basslines and multiple soul moving melodic layers that create a colourful soundscape that is pure audiopleasure to listen and dance along or fly with it. John OO Calaghan delivers the harder approach to the original with tough banging drum beats, rough kicks, smashing basslines that can make you dizzy and acid overtones adding that darker underground edge associated with JOC style. Last but not least Giuseppe Ottaviani delivers his version that is pure epic uplifting trance at its best with lighter smoother approach but equally energetic and powerful as we love to get it from GO. Looking forward to enjoy them both live at the Solarstone Pure event as part of  Full On Ferry's event at ADE. I feel like flying please don't disturb me now. Love iT!
