Together, two guys called Chris have collaborated for their first co-op release for Germany's VANDIT Recordings. As individual producers, the Berlin-based producers have worked on music for a number of frontline artists, Afrojack and Thomas Gold being but a couple. A means to a stylistic end, 'Telling Tales' sees them cumulatively reach musical pastures new.
With the release the pair collectively step out of their respective comfort zones to fuse a new sound, one that draws percentile inspirations from the fields of classic house, trance and the progressive. 'Telling Tales' synthesizes dramatic, striking orchestral hits, chiming organs & piano lines and zooming FX. Built around a dynamic trance-end tempo, it alternates between big emotional drops and floor elating lifts.
Accompanying the release of 'Telling Tales' comes its extraordinary, mesmerizing video for the single. Shot on location in the town they call home, you can check its absorbing visuals.
The release comes with a fantasic prog house remix by Sebastian Krieg.
Dimitri Kechagias review: The legendary record label Vandit records has lined up for the trance family some stunning releases for March just some weeks ahead from Miami Winter Music Conference. The next highly anticipated release comes actually from the home town of Vandit records that is Berlin the cultural capital of Europe. Chris Bekker & Chris Montana well known in the progressive house circuit deliver their amazing mesmerising production called Telling Stories. The original mix is a great hybrid of epic progressive house with progressive trance. The result is the perfect transition from the prog house selections in your set to the melodic progressive trance ones. Its driving, energetic with positive optimistic piano melody that stay in the corridors of your mind for ages. You just press play and let your mind, body and soul enjoy the music ride that is colourful, inspiring, sparkling and absolutely feel good to the maximum. When you hear tracks like this one in a club you can not stop your feet tapping, you mouth humming and your ears absorbing every single sound layer used. Modern Trance Perfection is what you get for very sure. For those who would like to play a much more straight forward progressive house version the fantastic Sebastian Krieg is on board and he delivers a magnificent version that starts quite deep with plenty of bass until to reach the breakdown that the main melodic themes are revealed and slowly the track is beefing up towards the massive hands in the air climax. When the beat strikes back better let all the inhibitions and fear go away and allow yourself to enjoy the massive sound storm that will push negativity away and will send you to outerspace for sure. #PureGold Love iT
