REVIEW: Aruna - What If (Remixes) out on Enhanced recordings


ARUNA's chart-storming hit from earlier this year returns to Enhanced in three new guises showcasing three very different approaches from some of the scene's rising talents.

First up Rodrigo Deem brings his established Progressive Trance style to ARUNA's evocative Original in a sublimely produced journey through rising chords, crisp bass and exquisitely layered FX. Showcasing ARUNA's ever-powerful vocal delivery in a brilliantly euphoric new light.

Next up Hungarian producer Mike Dyne puts together a brilliantly building, festival-ready Progressive House rendition featuring booming basslines, surging chords and delicate touches throughout to result in a brilliant harmonious merging of ARUNA's sublime vocals and evocative energy.

Tying off the release, UK producer Richard Caddock serves up an imaginative genre-defying Electronica version merging an impressive array of styles. Tough bass accompanies trap-influenced pads to result in a total transformation of ARUNA's vocals to result in an entirely fresh euphoric sentiment throughout.

ARUNA's return to Enhanced gets reworked by three incredibly impressive producers - this is the 'What If' remixes.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]The beloved singer Aruna who is considered to have one of the most emotional and highly touching voices returns with the exquisite remix package of her latest smash What If. Richard Caddock Remix is moving in and out of trap with superb distorted basslines, wobbly slow jam grooves, heartfelt sugar sweet atmosphere and great uplifting synths along with cinematic strings making it perfect for soundtrack of TV series or film. Mike Dyne provides the uplifting progressive house remix ready for the mainstage sets. Pumping basslines, punchy rough grooves and big euphoric synthy stabs along with electronic melodies and sensitive strings that support Aruna's performance to shine and stand out. Last but not least Rodrigo Deem Remix is a sparkling fast forward thinking progressive trance version with pulsating basslines, heavy sharp drums, feel good sunkissed synths and Aruna's voice offer us hope and encouragement to move forward even when everything look moody and sad. Ibiza Trance at it's best. Great remixes for a top single. #PureGold Love It[/content]
