REVIEW: Apaches - Opium out on AERYS Records / Armada


Packed with acid-infused basslines and Goa-flavored melodies, Apaches' label debut has got to be one of the most addictive cuts on AERYS to date. Transitioning from the shrieking arpeggios into a melody that gets you high on life, this cut makes entire crowds lose their minds. Trance fans, this is your 'Opium'.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Apaches is coming on AERYS with modern futuristic ravestatic psy tech trancer that will definitely create a havoc on any trancefloor. Opium is a solid well arranged piece of energetic trance with psy trance razor sharp basslines, techy drums, acid overtones and mesmerizing breakdown that calms before the storm that is coming on the full on hands in the air climax. It starts all tech trance and rough and continues with dark uplifting synths and concludes on the same psy trance style. It will appeal to wide variety of audience with open mind and courage to jump all night long. Energy Drinks anyone? #PureGold Love iT[/content]
