The first preview track from Armin van Buuren’s 'A State of Trance at Ushuaïa, Ibiza 2014' compilation, Mark Sixma brought a timeless classic into 2014.
To say Sixma’s been crushing it lately would be an understatement, and with this release, he further establishes himself as one of the best of the moment.
Dimitri Kechagias review: The 5 times number 1 dj of the world and one of the most busy music industry moguls Armin van Buuren presents his new compilation concept that is called obviously A State Of Trance Ibiza 2014 At Ushuaia that is of course the new home of his ASOT parties in the Island of magic dreams and endless summer fun. Two great CD's packed with the freshest trance anthems and many exclusives as well. One of them that is offered as instant gratification item when you order the compilation is also released on Armind as single. The exceptional dj & producer with countless beatport trance hits Mark Sixma presents his own take of Barber's Adagio For Strings well known from William Orbit, Ferry Corsten, Tiesto, Paul Oakenfold in his Trance Mission CD. Mark is unstoppable force in the trance scene and anything he touches turn into gold so definitely this smiling Dutchman has the Midas touch no doubt. His version targets the mainstage sets of the summer festivals with very rough and tough kick, hardstyle aggressive bassline and super danceable rhythm while on top he adds cool vocal sample as well. He builds anticipation wonderfully towards the main section with harder tribal grooves, rough basslines and some hints of the main well known melody. The breakdown is the place that he reveals the classical music theme that instantly raises the hair from your back and you feel slowly your body lifted from the ground. The climax includes the pulsating pounding foundation while on top the classic theme is recreated with rave style distorted synthy lead that is supported further with more euphoric strings and synths in order to bring the ultimate chaos on the dancefloor. Adagio For Strings proves that will last eternally and we hope soon Armin van Buuren to remix it as well in his Gaia style! #PureGold Love iT
The album is now available for pre-order here.
