REVIEW: Shinovi - Prologue EP out on Who's Afraid Of 138?!


Shinovi's 'Prologue EP' is carnage in fourfold. From 'Feel The Drums' and 'Lory's Mansion' to 'Neverending Dream' and 'Run Or Stay', the Dutchmen's brand-new offering to Who's Afraid Of 138?! is powerful, energetic and impervious on all fronts, sure to amplify any Trance fan's night out.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Shinovi deliver his best productions until now on his Prologue EP. The 4 tracks included are varied and effective on any uplifting or psy trance environment.'Feel The Drums' is an incredible record that packs tones of energy with heavy hard hitting tribal drums, psy trance basslines and cool dark vocal samples merged with moody synth in order to bring mayhem.  Lory's Mansion is an interesting uplifting psy trance production with strong synthy hook that can bring a lot of energy. It sounds perfect for the middle part of the set rather being the peak time choice. Run Or Stay is fantastic vocal hybrid of euphoric trance and psy trance with brilliant female vocal line and suspenseful synthy hook that will uplift you straight away.  Lastly Neverending Dream is what I hear as classic dark psy tech trancer with spoken vocal with naughty references. The breakdown is moody and haunting while the main part is rough and ferocious with certain tribal edge. It's mindblowing, not to be missed. #PureGold Love It [/content]
