REVIEW: Majai - Code (Original and Vocal mix) out on Hardwired

Majai consists of Mark Kruger and Anna Sennikova. The pair met in 2001 in Washington DC and discovering their mutual drive and passion for electronic music formed the group shortly afterwards. Anna is a classically trained musician with a degree in audio engineering and Mark first cut his teeth with a successful Djing career while later progressing into Song writing and Production.

Their first single ‘Lightwave’ released in 2007 received major support from the A-list elite including Tiesto & Armin Van Buuren and their previous releases have had regular support by Above & Beyond, Markus Schulz, Paul Van Dyk + more Freshly cooked out of the Majai studio new production ‘Code’ truly encapsulates the current Majai sound with its rhythmic drum patterns unlocking a groove filled body shaking bassline which decrypts subtle synth work.

The breakdown is the definition of epic with emotive pads and stadium sounding leads which compliment
Anna’s delicate vocal perfectly making this another sure fire steal from the Hardwired production vaults.

A song about the challenge and excitement of romance. Often times we are on separate planes like Robots and Humans; Only to cross and meet at a moment in time.

Lyrics:
Daylight flashes, the night runs away..
The morning sun doesn't rise..
Two worlds crashing, everything is grey..
The hidden code in your eyes.

Why can't we talk about the love I know you want from me?
Silent thoughts drown me out.
But i can't read you you're still empty.
Everything that we had is in doubt.
Your perfect still eyes they whisper words I fear to hear now.
Hitting me like winter ice.
A code so cold I don't want to break it.
Love too far, love left hanging.

Dimitri Kechagias review:  The exceptional duo Majai will always be remembered from their classic Lightwave. They finish off 2013 in great style with their magnificent track Code. If you read the lyrics published along this review you will easily understand that their words are deep and meaningful trying to encode and decode love that is so simple but so hard emotion to fully understand when it happens and why it appears with certain people. Their production values are really high  and you can expect a really beautiful balearic progressive trancer that is colourful, highly enjoyable and very danceable of course. Chunky groovy bubbly beats, driving energetic basslines, warm strings and undeniable groove. The playful synthy melody comes to the surface with big bang and drive us nicely in the calming soothing breakdown that blissful melodies become the perfect soundbed for the female vocals to shine and crawl under our skin and talk straight with your heart. The huge synthy riffs are revealed and everything is ready for the climax to happen. Full on euphoric hands in the air drop with superb vocals on top to sing a long and make you easily identify with the lyrics and recognise your personal experience to them. Of course if you would like to concentrate on the melodic content the original version without the vocals will become your favourite.Personally is hard to imagine this track without the delicate vocals.Love iT
