REVIEW: Alex Larichev - Way Back out on Interplay / Armada Music

9.5
Overall Score

From the floor-cracking bass to the high-octane sound sets, Alex Larichev's 'Way Back' is a club stomper in its final form. Made to wreak havoc across the world, this cut is so monumentally powerful you won't be the same ever again.

Alex Larichev - Way Back9

Summary

Way Back by Alex Larichev on Interplay is a very interesting hybrid of big room with psy tech trance. The main section has heavy basslines, thundercrushing drums and psy infused grooves while the breakdown has distorted warped synthy hooks to blow your mind leading to the very short euphoric section and then finishing off with psy trance outro. It had the potential to be truly big but the execution is not as to the point as it should be for my taste in trance. Check IT
