Dimitri Kechagias review: Mondo records is the top record label from London headed by the trance legend and film scores composer Darren Tate. The latest release comes from the hands of the newcomer Edward South and is called Wonderland. If you adore the current sound of Above & Beyond and you don't mind the mixture of trance and progressive house influences then you are you are going to enjoy this well polished and highly infectious anthem. Edward applies the pulsating pumping bassline and the chunky wonky groove along with variety of synthy layers on top that manage to hypnotise the listener and lift his spirit. The breakdown is the moment that the so magical piano melody comes at the very front and becomes the focus point. Dreamy, melancholic and super perfect to drift your mind away and feel the warmth of sounds. The massive epic synthy riffs are unleashed to bring mayhem and increase intensity. The build up is coming with a massive drum roll effect and his energetic climax arrives for that full on in your face hands in the air experience packed with uplifting synths, epic strings and electro infused basslines that push your adrenaline level to its limits. Very well produced with great memorable theme so you certainly got a very descent release to consider. #PureGold Love IT
