With their first ever release on ASOT, Canberra & Astrid Suryanto came up with a haunting vocal masterpiece. This is a fresh-sounding tune with plenty of that old-school emotion that brought the trance genre to world recognition so many years ago.
The Mike Saint-Jules remix definitely adds something special to the table, kicking the intensity up ever higher! By receiving support from Armin van Buuren on his latest A State Of Trance 2015 compilation ‘UP’ is a must have for your collection.

Dimitri Kechagias review: ASOT recordings is at the forefront of trance scene delivering exceptional music that stands out from the crowd. The latest release handpicked by Armin van Buuren is the collaboration between Canberra and the singer Astrid Suryanto. The track UP is a brilliant futuristic sci-fi infused progressive vocal trancer that combine strong chunky drums, electrified basslines and strong melodic dreamy melodies. The vocal is absolutely mindblowing and gives you goosebumps instantly. We hope to see Astrid performing on many trance tracks in the future. Emotional performance with dynamism and spiritual force as we love our vocal trance to be. The breakdown includes even dubstep sequence before the climax comes in with euphoric synths and driving basslines for the ultimate trance experience. Mike Saint-Jules is on great shape at the moment and he transforms the melodic original into the mainstage euphoric trancer that you were waiting for! Tougher pounding drums, electrified sharp and punchy basslines, colourful euphoric synthy hooks and great application of the vocal that remains rather understated in the background as Mike favours the beats, the bass and the incredible melody. Ferocious vicious aggressive trance that has sweet melodic edge as well. #PureGold Love It
