Pure Thrust was originally released in 2002 on the late Alphamagic's 'Difuse Records' imprint, where it quickly became one of the biggest selling and most talked about and played records, featuring a stunning remix from Italian duo Nu NRG. British legend Eddie Halliwell and Germany's Paul van Dyk and Cosmic Gate were among the first to support this tune. Their version brought an innovative new sound previously unheard in the trance community and established the nowadays greatly used sidechain effect, which was first heard on french house productions. This tune set the path for Nu NRG's rise to stardom.

Six years later, this must-have classic was first time re-released with all new, as well as, lost remixes. Pure Thrust, originally produced by Franky Fonell, Chris Reece and Dave Joy recieved an update by UK's Chris & Matt Kidd/Rob “Activa” Stevenson aka 'Substate', London based 'Olly Perris' and Namibia's own trance legend 'P.H.A.T.T.'.

10 years later, we're very proud to present this ultimate collection including an all new slamming Hard Trance remix by UK's 'Liam Wilson', included on the #4 (peak) of the 'Official Swiss Compilation Charts' smash 'Street Parade - Official Trance 2012 (mixed by Dave Joy & DJ Madwave). 


                                         

Dimitri Kechagias review: Some trance tracks survive as long as trance music survives through the years. The big uplifting trance sound is coming back for sure as even Armin van Buuren in his ASOT party will dedicate a whole stage on the harder uplifting trance sound. It seems that is time the massive Pure Thrust to strike back for the 10 years anniversary edition with all the huge mixes included plus the brand new Liam Wilson remix that I'm going to write some words about. Liam is a trusted force in the uplifting trance field and on this fantastic classic shows his skills on how to turn everything and anything in his own tough uplifting full on euphoric trance. This is Pure Trance without complications ready to blow your mind and shocks without any obligation to sound trendy and flashy. Liam delivers a high quality stomper that is so powerful, energetic and dynamic that you don't feel nothing more after hearing it on the club. The breakdown reveals the great female spoken vocal sample and that unforgettable synthy lead that is hands in the air, closed eyes and flying and flowing to the 7th skies. The absolute sonic escape into the colourful and beautiful world of trance. Great idea to bring it back for action. Check the classic remixes included that you can easily drop today and sound modern and fresh. Love iT!
