REVIEW: Gaia - Inyathi out on Armind / Armada Music



Oh, what a meteoric rise it's been. Supported by a number of timeless, highly-acclaimed, and devastating tracks, the mysterious cloaked duo known only as 'Gaia' managed to convert so many of the Trance enthusiasts to their way of thinking, their way of life, and their way of music. But although such a legacy must be cherished, that doesn't mean one cannot strengthen it any further.

Hand-picked by Armin van Buuren himself to be the first instant gratification of his mint 'A State Of Trance 2016' compilation, 'Inyathi' leads the charge on the rest of the global crowds in an attempt to reel them in to its side with stomping beats and soul-nourishing melodies. What started with '4 Elements' and saw its fire re-lit through 'Tuvan' picked up pace through magical creations such as 'Empire Of Hearts' and 'Carnation', only to continue the rampage through 'Inyathi'. Expect a true dance floor stampede whenever this one hits.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Gaia is one of the most loveable trance side project of Armin van Buuren and as always the tracks under this name are high class from start to finish. Inyathi is a superb electro trancer with chunky techy grooves, pulsating basslines and massive uplifting synths that recall the classics by MIKE Push. The breakdown is long and atmospheric with classic gated female voices and relaxing production until the big climax comes in and leads the track to its full on hands in the air climax that will please any new and older trance family member. Its modern futuristic but with grounded feet on the classics of the genre. #PureGold Love it[/content]
