REVIEW: Akira Kayosa & Hugh Tolland - Muriwai (incl Max Graham Remix) out on Subculture/Armada Music

1-Original mix
2-Max Graham remix
 
Fusing their sounds since 2010, UK producers Akira Kayosa and Hugh Tolland found balance in another production of excellence. ‘Muriwai’ is the uplifting affair that’ll be done justice on the dance floor.
 
Two years ago, UK’s Russell Ogden, better known as Akira Kayosa, hooked up with Glasgow-based producer Hugh Tolland. Sharing a passion for the melodic works and relentless energy of trance, their collabs were – one by one – highlights for the nightly hours and daylight dreamers. ‘Muriwai’ is no different. It’s got that strong build-up, breathtaking break and lively character, making it a perfect fit for the Subculture label.

Canada’s Max Graham, ever a fan of the deep, proggy side of trance, unveils a powerful, intriguing remix of ‘Muriwai’. Dark at first, but bursting with light, uplifting prog-trance later, this is a perfect tune to get the crowd going for a long night ahead. 
 
                                      
Dimitri Kechagias review: Subculture is your trusted source of real underground trance tracks that shine with quality and are released only if JOC approves and you know that he is not easy to satisfy as John searches only for the best and original tracks. The brand new release comes from the hands of Akira Kayosa & Hugh Tolland who consider to be of the finest producers in UK. Muriwai is a stunning feel good uplifting trancer that follows  the rules of the good solid euphoric trance based mainly in the strength of the main theme that is fantastic and instantly attention grabbing. Without experimentation and with just focus on the flawless production that takes you for a journey is definitely a winner for any uplifting trance set. The awesome Max Graham transforms the original into the progressive trance beauty you can only expect to get from the legend that is Max of course.  Big booming basslines, electro influences and tribal drums lead the track to its breakdown that is atmospheric and dreamy as we wanted to be with big epic distorted synthy lead that will drive the track to the hands in the air bouncing and shaking main part that works as the finest crescendo moment. Maximum trance power from Max Graham. Balanced production with underground feel to it. Top package, not to be missed. Love iT!
