REVIEW: Genix - 6 AM Saint & Maheno out on Anjunabeats

10.0
Overall Score

Showing no signs of slowing down his prolific production streak which has included the likes of ‘Orca’ and ‘Olympus’ in recent months, Damion Houchen a.k.a Genix returns with another striking double A-side.

Doing the damage on his recent stop overs in Texas and Miami as part of the Anjunabeats North American tour, ‘6 Am Saint’ bookends a vintage trance breakdown with Damion’s trademark bass heavy groove.

A progressive leaning track with a touch of the 90s in the synth heavy riff, ‘Maheno’ is a sought after ID from Damion’s ABGT guest mix back in September.

Genix - 6 AM Saint & Maheno10

Summary

Genix is consistent talent with mature proglifting trance sound with complex structure and incredibly detailed arrangement. 6 AM Saint is a slamming anthem with huge bouncy electro groove along with big pulsating bassline with incredible breakdown that consists of eatherial voices combined with nice piano chords with certain old school flavour. The build up is intense and will uplift you from the ground. The climax is rough and spooky and focused on the bass rather on melodies. Second tune Maheno is moving on the same direction of wobbly chunky electro progressive combined with high-nrg synthy lines that slowly build the tension until to reach the Anjunaesque breakdown. It contains heavenly ethnic voices combined with feel good synthy hooks that is impossible not to get that big wide smile in your face when you listen to them. The climax is full on and headbanging perfect for that mainstage set that you want to drop something truly sparkling and inspiring. #ThisIsTrance #PureGold Love IT
