REVIEW: Ferry Tayle feat. Poppy - The Way Back Home (Remixes) out on Always Alive

Following the stunning Original Mix which has just been released, 'The Way Back Home' now gets what it deserves with a jam packed remix EP of no less than five unique takes on Ferry Tayle's magical tune.

To kick off the EP is a Club Mix; a high energy peak time trancer, fit for uplifting mainstages around the world. Featuring an orchestral breakdown, Poppy's emotive vocals are married in harmony to the music.

Now becoming a staple name in Trance DJ's CD wallets is Dan Stone with an incredible uplifting alternative. Adjusting the beat design and showing off his production finesse, Stone delivers yet again a powerful and euphoric uplifter.

Following his debut release on DS-R 'Forsaken' - Monoverse is back to show off his remixing skills. Masterfully manipulating both Ferry's melodies and Poppy's vocals, Monoverse manages to make 'The Way Back Home' his own in this stunning Remix.

Our fourth Remix comes courtesy of British DJ / producer Matt Bowdidge. This high octane rendition provides the listener with energy fuelled acids as well as an emotional breakdown of elaborate piano riffs and warm synth pads.

Last but not least is a Remix from New World. This more progressive take on the track is an excellent way to round off a collection of first class remixes.

An absolute must-have EP for fans of Ferry Tayle and Always Alive Recordings!











Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the biggest euphoric vocal trance anthems for 2014 so far is the magnificent Ferry Tayle track The Way Back Home featuring on vocal duties the sweet Poppy. The original package was huge success and no Always Alive presents the fat remix package that five new versions to  choose from and play more than once this beauty in your dj set. First of all is the Club mix that is of course the banging uplifting euphoric trance rework from Ferry Tayle that is pure uplifting trance at its very best. Huge tough drums, driving slamming basslines,colourful melodies and stunning breakdown that highlight the vocal abilities from Poppy who simply touch your heart straight way. This is what we call uplifting trance at its most classic, beloved and trusted style. The fantastic Dan Stone is on remix duties and his version follows the Pure Uplifting Trance sound that is driving, powerful, euphoric with slightly aggressive bassline that sounds rougher. Dan as we know by now is a true magician and his version utilise the original piano melody, the uplifting synths and Poppy' performance in order to deliver a memorable sonic experience that will be remembered for days after leaving the dancefloor. For the progressive trance lovers Monoverse delivers the playful neo progressive trance style that applies deeper darker basslines, chunky groovy housey kicks and sunny summery synthy leads on top. Also Monoverse introduces brand new melodies and synthy hooks as he tries to make the result even more emotional and heartbreaking. Matt Bowdidge comes next who does what he knows best and that is to service the UK Trance style with acid overtones, heavy dark energetic basslines and the fantastic vocals and mesmerising electronic synthy hooks on top. Fantastic breakdown with prominent application of the piano melody that highlight the emotional intensity that our character that Poppy sings about pass through. The climax is full on hands in the air in truly pleasurable and euphoric hair raising style that will blow your senses. Finally  New World brings to the table the proglifting trance version that is floating and smooth with deep driving basslines and energetic kick while on  top the excellent vocal becomes the focus point of it! The huge synthy lead comes to the forefront to raise the hair from your back like being in front of a Concorde aircraft turbine. The climax is epic and delivers the goods to those who were waiting for a pay off moment that is melodic, feelgood and keeps the party juices flowing! It is such a wonderful track that deserves such a huge remix package! #PureGold Love iT
