1. Force Majeure - Out Of My Mind (Xtigma Remix)
2. The Realm - Lost In Space (The Madison Remix)
3. The Realm - Lost In Space (The Space Brothers Remix)
This double remix release takes Force Majeure and The Realm to intoxicating new dimensions, imbuing these tracks with fresh new ideas.
Xtigma’s one of the new breed of producers who rose up fair and square, gaining early attention as a winner of a remix competition for Paul van Dyk, and he’s steadily worked his way up with big releases ever since.
The Madison’s name is constantly placed alongside top quality, progressive/trance releases, and his skillful creation is joined by UK progressive trance duo The Space Brothers’ dubby revamp of ‘Lost In Space’.
Dimitri Kechagias review: ARVAS / Armada Music presents an exceptional package that updates in the best possible way 2 magnificent side projects of Ricky Simmonds and Stephen Jones well known as Space Brothers or Lustral or Force Majeure or The Realm. The characteristic of all these projects is that not only the music component is very strong but also the lyrics are inspirational and elevate the listener to a higher level. First of all is Force Majeure with Out Of My Mind remixed by Xtigma Remix. This upcoming trance producer does his best to make current and modern the original in true big room trance direction. Techy drums, punchy driving basslines, very strong synthy melody running on top and heartfelt pianos are combined perfectly with sweet female vocals that sounds like a goddess from another world is singing them. The revelation of the fireworks rave style synthy lead is the perfect moment to let all the inhibitions go and dance and jump along. Euphoric but with dark edges is an excellent translation of the original. The Realm's beauty Lost In Space is remixed by the Russian The Madison who manage to establish himself as one to watch and always his name signals quality and must check releases. He recreates the original in his well known style with chunky crunchy groovy beats, electro kissed basslines, epic strings and melodic synths combined perfectly with the very interesting theatrical male vocal that invite us to feel like being Lost In Space. Exceptional breakdown with violins and balearic guitar that will travel your senses to IBIZA without return ticket. If you search for proglifting trancer that will keep the dancefloor boiling and preparing them in the finest way for the big tunes don't miss this beauty that shines. For the chill out / lounge style fans Lost In Space is remixed in magnificent tripping chill out way by The Space Brothers themselves. Just relax for a while and feel the superb percussion, airy pads, warm strings and classical music themes with the fantastic male vocals transforming your life into an endless galaxy with endless possibilities and unexplored challenges. It reminds me the trip hop sound of Bristol with Tricky & Portishead, It is such an excellent idea to remix those beautiful trance anthems from the past! #PureGold Love iT
