Since its original release earlier this year, Aruna's 'Reason To Believe' has gone on to be a stand out vocal for 2013. Now this sensational release returns with no less than 6 fresh new remixes to please any listener.
Having already received support from global megastar Tiesto & Armin van Buuren, the Paris Blohm remix of 'Reason To Believe' really is all that. Hot off his first original release with Enhanced - 'Lost In Me' - Paris Blohm injects a colossal amount of energy into his festival built drop whilst preserving Aruna's ethereal vocal. The future is bright for this young American talent!
Having made a huge impact with his remix of Juventa's 'Move Into Light', Toby Hedges teams up this time with High 5 for a punchy and melodic trance remix. From the heartfelt breakdown to the spine tingling drop, this duo has given this track a new dimension that it deserves. Support from Armin van Buuren on ASOT and Above & Beyond on ABGT!
Up next on remix duties is up and coming electronic producer - Fractal. Making a big name for himself in the scene with his ever-so-hard-to-categorise productions and collaborations with none other than BT, he provides some fresh and twisted beats while keeping the mix just as melodic as the original. Cleverly cutting Aruna's delicate vocals and using them to make his own approach to 'Reason To Believe', the Fractal remix makes for an excellent alternative to the Original.
Stars of Enhanced Progressive, Speed Limits have been recruited to give their own take of Aruna's anthem. No strangers to making beautiful melodies, this duo do just that. Accompanying their celestial sounding breakdown is a filtered kick drum which evolves into animated and summery lead. Another exquisite production from progressive outfit, Speed Limits.
Next in line to rework Steve Kaetzel's original mix is no other than Aruna herself. Having received a film scoring and electronic music production major at Berklee College of Music, Aruna displays yet again her diverse talents. The Aruna Chill Out Mix is the perfect blend of ambient sounds and melodies tailor-made for lazy Sundays. A remarkable piece of work from one of Enhanced's brightest stars!
Last, but absolutely not least on this collection of remixes is Aruna's very own live Red Room Sessions Acoustic Mix, a response to years of popular demand for a studio recording of her infamous unplugged Red Room Sessions videos. This is a one take live recording of Aruna tinkling the ivories – it’s beautiful, perfect and a fitting conclusion to this release.
6 outstanding remixes in one release. A gem for any Enhanced fan and a tribute to the multi-talented Aruna!
Dimitri Kechagias review: The beloved singer Aruna who is working with the best djs & producers around the world presents the remix package of her hit single Reason To Believe. Aruna songs tell stories and describe situations that anyone can feel affected from them and this song is not an exception. The remix package will widen the appeal of the track. First of all Fractal remix is named as Glitch Hop or someone else can name it dubstep. Full on heavy bass focused version with plenty of distortion and immense energy combined with Aruna's performance. Its very cinematic version that will appeal to many. Aruna Chill Out mix is a wonderful relaxing version perfect for those "I need a break" moments. Let her voice guide you late at night. Red Room Accoustic mix offers you glimpse to Aruna's vocal abilities without effects with just her bare naked voice and piano. The USA EDM fans will find impossible not to get excited with Paris Blohm remix. With rough electro inspired basslines, pumping jumping beats and energy to the maximum is simply mindblowing mainstage style anthem with sugar sweet melodic breaks and hard drops so enjoy the ride. The two versions that touch me the most comes from Toby Hedges & High 5 who provide the melodic deep progressive trouse version with excellent sound texture of deep haunting basslines, pumping techy housey beats, soothing breakdown and euphoric hands in the air climax perfect to raise the roof in the club and let your inhibitions go away. Speed Limits are coming last with an awesome version that is the most effective and absolutely mouthwatering. Deep pounding basslines, bubbly beats, warm orchestral strings with dreamy heavenly breakdown and full on melodic climax to raise the roof! Top remix package to raise the profile of Aruna! We Love HER!
