REVIEW: Ferry Corsten & Eric Lumiere - Something To Believe In incl. Saad Ayub out on Flashover Recordings


Something To Believe In features a breathtaking vocal by Eric Lumiere, which is the centre of the track. With the original being the more laidback and progressive render of the single, Saad Ayub takes the vocal to another level with a more trance anthem infused riff taking the attention.

Supported by Ferry Corsten, Myon, Andrew Rayel, Alexander Popov, Saad Ayub, Paul van Dyk, DIM3NSION, Manuel Le Saux, Judge Jules, The Thrillseekers, Kyau & Albert, MIKE Push, Talla 2XLC, Mike Saint-Jules, Betsie Larkin, Sander van Doorn, DJ Feel, Nifra, Super 8 & Tab, Driftmoon, Johan Gielen, Anske & more

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Blueprint by Ferry Corsten was definitely one of the best trance album for 2017. His single Something To Believe In is absolutely mouthwatering with its laidback arrangement of simple but effective pulsating basslines, chunky drums, percussion and cool melodramatic strings along with piano chords and strong synthy lines. The vocal is as always magical but stays understated and sounds like coming from an old phone line. The climax plays the cool main theme with simple synthy lines travelling your mind to faraway places. If this quite techy sound is not your cup of tea go straight away to Saad Ayub remix who respects the melodramatic atmosphere of the original and he just add tougher pulsating basslines, electro touched grooves, larger sounding synthy plucks and application of the vocal from the first part rather than keeping it as surprise factor in the breakdown. The climax is euphoric and anthemic but in subtle esoteric direction. Great vocal trance inside from Ferry who is simply legend on his own right and much loved and respected. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
