1.Modus Operandi (Original Mix)
Back from never gone, is the Swedish talent of Airbase. His unmistakable and unrivalled ways of grasping the right melody return on the sure-shot that is ‘Modus Operandi’.
You don’t need to be an expert to know that this tune, the official follow-up to ‘Uppercut’, will become a highlight to many a trance fan. Its mind-blowing piano break, strong build-up and the sheer impact of its climax make ‘Modus Operandi’ another classic-to-be.
Another jewel, finding a warm home on the A State of Trance label.
Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the most important figures in the development of modern trance culture is of course Jasper aka Airbase. He was one of the founders of the fantastic meeting point of all the trancers trance.nu and he has in his back catalogue classics that will be re-released in the future with new remixes without doubts. His latest release is coming like his previous single on ASOT record label and as you can imagine it has already the support of the Dutch King of Trance Armin van Buuren. Its called Modus Operandi and in my opinion is what real, pure and clean cut trance sound should be all about. Superb composition that flows so nicely that make you float upon its bouncy beats, the deep and haunting basslines, the wah wah wah style trance voices, the warm strings and melancholic pianos. Modus Operandi is more about the strong melodic themes and the beautiful progression of the various elements rather than offering cheep gimmicks and sound effects to cheat the crowd and give them immediate satisfaction. Modus Operandi is about emotion, lust and passion for pure trance music that wins you with its cinematic atmosphere and the hidden audio pleasures that offers to its listeners. Instrumentals are great but we wait for the next vocal smash from Airbase, let's hope will come soon. Peak time mayhem is guaranteed. Love iT!
