You want coolly enigmatic trance-progressive with a just as coolly enigmatic sideline in track title-intrigue? Well look no further, VANDIT are delivering it direct to your music collection / listening-list!
Last year the significantly darker cut of August’s ‘Cthulhu’ & October’s ‘Kurai’ resounded through trance’s netherworld with their array of hook-you-in, mood-ish sounds.
With the 2015-starting gun fired, Germany’s Marcus Schleickmann & Phillpp Leske continue to track that sonic arc with the every-bit-as-gripping ‘Tama’.
Here at VANDIT, we’re starting to wonder whether there’s some coded message or other being delivered to us, title-by-title, piece-by-piece by those Extravagance SL boys! ‘Tama’ (Filipino for ‘right’, lest you wanted the latest piece of their ‘puzzle’) hotfoots it on the heels of last year’s ‘Cthulhu’ & ‘Kurai’.
The track is their third auditory invitation to trance’s darker side… Heavy drum-thump, mood inducing FX, deliciously indistinct vocoded vocals and Richter-scale registering bass all conspire on ‘Tama’ for mass effect!
About Extravagance SL: Phillpp Leske & Marcus Schleickmann have been rocking any number of spots with their tracks for close to five years now. Their studio outings are no strangers to the discographies of labels like FENology & Tool Tracks and most recently VANDIT. They are also regular visitors to the tracklists of shows like A State Of Trance (where ‘Nightshift’ became a notable Tune of the Week) and the review pages of the dance media including DJ Times, Raveline & DJ Mag.

Dimitri Kechagias review: If you ask any trance fan which record labels come straight away to his mind one of those that he will mention you is definitely Vandit records. The beloved record label from Berlin brings only the highest class releases from wide variety of artists from all over the globe. Vandit records is not just a label. It is a recognisable style that people refer to describe the sound they like. If you were thinking Vandit records sound as homogeneous and one single thing better think again. Vandit records in 2014 has proved that is an openminded label that represents what is great in trance music. 2015 starts with a big bang and the excellent release Tama by the one and only ExtravaganceSL. The ultra hot duo deliver what is termed dark moody progressive trance. The cold and psy trance infused sound that was associated with Markus Schulz before his decision to change and move to big room trance. Of course ExtravaganceSL put their own spin and creativity on that mysterious sound and upon the haunting bassline add their very strong piano melody that is warm, dreamy and tripping out. The understated industrial synths, the distorted vocals in the breakdown and the chopped vocal samples keep the vibe and groove going! Floating sonic experience that guides you to a mysterious underworld. Tama will get many plays in the coming months for sure. 100% PureDarkChocolate Trance! Love It
