REVIEW: Alex Kraig - Power Station out on VANDIT records


Likely a new name to many, Canada’s Alex Kraig signs in with a nothing-less-than-extraordinary debut for VANDIT.

Up top, ‘Power Station’ is sonic styled from classic progressive house/trance sounds & techniques. Warm, halcyon synths, evocating bleeps, slo-mo breaks and incredible key changes instil the track with a thrilling atmosphere.

Down below though, the prog mould gets smashed! Sasha on steroids, Digweed with deltoids, the Canadian wunderkind’s production rumbles and then rocks with all that titular ‘Power’!
Take DJ Mag’s advice and: “whatever you do this month, don’t miss out on this”!



Dimitri Kechagias review: The pioneer of electronic music Paul van Dyk from Berlin invites you to appreciate the new talent Alex Kraig who does his best to impress your ears and make you shout loud that this simply amazing. Power Station is not your average trance track. It is rather energetic but with certain progressive avant garde edge that makes you notice it straight away. Pumping pulsating basslines, edgy techy wobbly groove and brilliant breakbeat meets electro section in the breakdown that will travel your mind to many beautiful places with the awesome cinematic strings and the lovely melodies. Driving energetic trancer with some 80's vintage synths, aggressive raw electro infused basslines and depth that you don't find easily in trance productions nowadays. Mindboggling fluorescent experience #PureGold Love It
