Whilst ‘Watch The World’ was electrifying airwaves & delighting fans last spring, it was also having another, altogether subtle side effect. Intentionally or otherwise, it was bringing about a shift in the understanding of who Markus Schulz, the musician, is.
Working in stylistic areas new, penning & co-penning many of the tracks’ lyrics and delivering an entire disc’s worth of acoustic versions were just some of the ways in which ‘WTW’ challenged the Schulz perception chamber. Bringing that development to its natural conclusion this October, Markus signs off on his most transformative long-player to date with its criterion edition.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]The anticipation for the release of the Deluxe edition of Markus Schulz's Watch The World is increasing and in our hands 4 of the top new remixes included in the package. Firstly is the beloved Gai Barone. The Italian master takes us by the hand and transforms Waiting into a magical deep haunting journey with rolling basslines, driving atmosphere and understated colorful synths along with distorted vocals. As always Gai's tracks is sonic experience not to be missed with its attention to detail and rich sound textures. I Hear You Calling featuring CAYO is remixed into deep melodic slightly tropical house beauty by JackLNDN who does his best to impress. Deep grooves, sunkissed melodies, xylophone themes and warm and tender summery atmosphere. The well known Destiny featuring Delacey is transformed from Solid Stone into a mouthwatering deep melodic progressive track perfect to warm up trance sets or to get plays from classic prog house heroes. The fantastic vocal sounds great within the spacious environment of sparkling electronic synths and serious inspiring atmosphere. Lastly on this sampler Summer Dream featuring Mia Koo is remixed by We Rabbitz who service the stunning feel good mainstage friendly trap banger that has dynamic basslines and warm atmosphere ready for radio support. #PureGold Love it [/content]
