Dimitri Kechagias review: The summer of 2014 is definitely the summer of Deep House and Italy that has great tradition in house music presents an excellent project that is destined to become one of the biggest records of the summer/autumn 2014. Time Square collaborate with the fantastic Xavier Rudd who has heavenly gifted voice and established stunning talent for the beauty Follow The Sun. Amazing inspiring lyrics, spiritual atmosphere, warm guitar melody, electronic influences and acoustic organic instruments merged to produce that mindblowing result that will make you definitely more peaceful and bring that state of mind that you will appreciate the good things in life and  cherish the moment. The package has fantastic remixes that deep house / tech house djs will adore to play and spread the good vibes of this wonderful composition. First of all the Western Disco remix is magnificent dreamy deep house meets electronic music track with great atmosphere and of course warmth, tenderness, honestly, purity and optimism. Superb grooves, deep basslines, cinematic strings and of course fantastic danceable rhythm with that tribal ethnic feel to it! The Western Disco super dub mix is a brilliant 7 minutes long journey with hypnotic groove, warm and tender melodies, great application of the vocals in the background and fantastic climax that becomes a bit more aggressive and dynamic perfect for peak time plays in your Ibiza dj sets. XOXO & Daniele Petronelli is an even more minimal deep tech house version that allows the guitar theme to come at the forefront and the drum beat to stay at the background. Calming, dreamy, smooth and peaceful remix with excellent sound design and magical dreamy soundscapes! The package includes the radio friendly Black Box remixes! It would be so cool to listen again soon the classic Ride on Time by Black Box. It deserves to come back with new mixes! #PureGold Let's be peace and love on earth and don't forget Make Love & Not War! Love IT
