Played by Ruben de Ronde at 'A State of Trance 650: New Horizons' in Buenos Aires, ‘Finding Peace’ is a piano-infused, melodic and serene beauty.
Joined by the more energetic ‘Remode’ (supported by Armin van Buuren in A State of Trance), this EP places musicality at the forefront. Orchestrated instruments, vibrant chords, and crystal clear emotions are what Danny Chen does best.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Danny Chen in his soundcloud page mentions: "Trying to learn everyday and have fun making music!". His brilliant productions prove so far that he is more than able to succeed on that and he has the support of djs like Armin van Buuren and Ruben de Ronde by his side as well. His latest release on Ruben's de Ronde label Statement recordings includes two fantastic warm and dreamy progressive trance sounds of the highest quality with strong melodies that stand out and arrangement that keeps evolving and involving your mind, body and soul. Finding Piece opens the proceedings. Deep haunting brooding basslines are combined with chunky rolling drums while on top heavenly like voices added as well. The various synthy plucks warm the atmosphere even more with emotional melodic themes absorbing your inner self. The breakdown is dominated from the sensitive peaceful piano chords that carry away your senses and for some minutes enhance your inner piece. The build up towards the climax is intense with huge euphoric synths and heavenly female voices that bring the track to its massive crescendo moment in the climax that is warm, tender, flowing and floating and absolutely mouthwatering. The second track Remode moves on the same direction by being slighty more upfront and banging. Chunky wonky techy groove, energetic electro infused basslines and superb blissful atmosphere in the breakdown with plenty of colourful synths while the main one is quite more aggressive with rockish edge. This big room melody drives the track to its full on hands in the air euphoric climax that is magical, dreamy and very danceable and dynamic at the same time. Two quality productions from Danny Chen who is the very promising artist and stands out on Statement recordings. #PureGold Love It
