REVIEW: John O'Callaghan & Jennifer Rene - Games incl music video on Subculture

Subculture label boss John O'Callaghan teams up with trance songstress Jennifer Rene to bring you a real uplifting vocal gem, with "Games".

Rene’s delicate emotive vocal is underpinned effortlessly by JOC’s sublime melodic undertones and precise production, which transforms “Games” into a high-ranking uplifting vocal Trancer.

As an artist who is firing on all cylinders at the moment, Standerwick strikes trance gold with a remix that encapsulates the very best in emotive peak-time Trance.

With major support from Armin Van Buuren who has already featured it on the 'A State Of Trance Ushuaia' compilation; "Games" is set to become another vocal anthem for JOC and Rene.

Dimitri Kechagias review: Subculture continues to grow and delivers amazing trance anthems that will remain in your mind and soul for many days after getting exposed to them on your favourite trance radio show or beloved trance night. The label owner  John O'Callaghan collaborates with the exceptional singer  Jennifer Rene for the fantastic vocal trance gem Games. The Original mix is moving on the well known and established by now John O'Callaghan style that balances between  the euphoric and at the same time is underground minded and very credible indeed. The emotional breakdown caters to highlight Jennifer's fantastic performance and the very sensitive and fragile themes enhance even more the ability of her voice to raise the hair from our back and make us feel a little bit moved and uplifted. The classic trance synths that recall Ibiza trance anthems from the past lead the track to the full on and straight forward euphoric climax that works as the resolution on the tension described on Jennifer's incredible voice. John O'Callaghan at its best! 


Standerwick remix on this release is definitely a major winner that will be appreciated dearly for every single trance fan.  The track is an energetic straight forward uplifting trance banger with driving energetic basslines, pulsating pumping kicks and emotional synths that become the perfect soundbed for the stunning Jennifer Rene to unveil her powerful highly sensitive and deeply emotional vocals. The breakdown is high class and atmospheric as you are accustomed to wait from the very able hands of Standerwick who does magic and cast a spell on us with romantic melancholic piano chords, airy pads and warm strings. It is like watching Jennifer Rene performing the track live  playing in the piano, this so heartfelt theme that can touch your soul straight away. Excellent lyrics supported by top sound design that highlight her strength and nicely lead us on the full on hands in the air euphoric colourful energetic peak time climax. If you search for high class vocals and energetic underground sounding uplifting trancer don't miss this beauty that is destined to reach n1 at beatport trance chart! #PureGold Love IT
