REVIEW: Kolonie - Falling Skies / Crystal Tears out on Statement Recordings

8.4
Overall Score


 No matter how you look at it, the debut release of Kolonie on Statement! is the epitome of all things Progressive. Through 'Falling Skies' and 'Crystal Tears', they brandish everything from desirable melodies to drop-dead gorgeous arpeggios and stunning atmospheres, all culminating in two songs that give the Eric Prydzs of this world a run for their money. The result of their no-holds-barred approach to music, these two tracks will reshape the world of music as we know it.

Summary

Kolonie brings two very nice progressive trance tracks on Statement. Falling Skies and Crystal Tears are ambitious melodic progressive trance with sweet colorful synths, deep pulsating basslines, rolling drums and anthemic strings. Eric Prydz and ARTY influences are evident and the tracks manage to capture the listener who keep him dancing either with hands in the air or with closed eyes as both are hypnotic and super spacey. Love IT
