Paul Oakenfold’s Trance Mission album – due for release in the Spring will feature fresh and exciting cover versions of ten of Oakenfold’s all time favourite trance records.
The first single on Perfecto Fluoro from the album is Paul’s driving remake of one of the most recognisable riffs of all time in electronic music.
Mixmag voted “Best Tune Ever” in 2001 and BBC Radio 1 listener voted best dance track of the last 20 years in 2011 there have been countless remixes of “Café Del Mar” over the years but few have covered this seminal title till now.
“After making more of a big room, new school trance sounding remake of “Toca Me” for Perfecto I knew when it came to Café del Mar I wanted to take things in the fluoro direction. The riff just begs you too. And since that was always the plan I also knew I wanted key Fluoro names remixing it as well so got Activa, Angry Man and Peetu S – who are all backbone contributors to the label to stamp their signature style on their versions. This is a touch peak time package for proper trance fans. Every time I’ve played this out in the last few months the place has just gone off. It’s nice to resent the track in a different, kind of GOA Trance themed style.”
Four unique takes on Paul Oakenfold’s cover of what is arguably the biggest trance record of all time.
This is the second chapter in the Trance Mission story.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Paul Oakenfold is without doubts one of the most influential and innovative dj and trance producer of all times as well. His labels Perfecto records & Perfecto Fluoro are responsible for some of the hottest anthems of all times. You can imagine what happens when the legend himself put his hand on Energy 52's Cafe Del Mar first released on the historic trance label EYE Q from Frankfurt. Paul is a magician when he goes into the studio and he does what he knows best as he delivers his powerful energetic prime time uplifting version with excellent breakdown that allows the big riff to develop in full and excite the crowd to the maximum. Its one of those tracks that has an emotional impact with its balearic infused melody and energise the clubs straight away. The remix package is the finest that you can ask for with the best names from the label. First of all is the fantastic Activa who goes for his deep neo prog trance style that stays faithful to the original track and particularly the breakdown with the well known melody that builds up nicely and decisively and explodes out of proportion at the end is simply magical. With balearic and psy trance infusions is definitely a remix that shows how capable producer is Activa. Angry Man as it seems will never stop to be angry so he service the harder trance version that combines elements of tech and psy trance along with euphoric in order to bring an unforgettable club experience. Pumping energetic firestorming breathtaking version that adds some darkness and moodiness in the colourful well known riff. Last but not least the so amazing Peetu S service his powerbanging tech trance meets psy meets uplifting trance version that includes many twists and turns and cool pitch changes in the riff that will always raise the hair from your neck and will always move thousands of club lovers worldwide. Exceptional package that this classic really deserves to shine again from the underground. #PureGold Love iT
