10.0
Two legends combine to create a true trance track in What Defines Us.
Sonic Element whose productions are revered among many in the scene, not least by those who have followed Borderline since its inception.
Slipstream, an alias of George Winkworth has had some of the most defining trance tracks of all time; Fiji and Voyager II, which are both on each end of the ‘commercial’ spectrum. Fiji breaking through into the mainstream and Voyager II being a stand out track from Gatecrasher’s DiscoTech compilation and becoming so hard to find that vinyl copies were being exchanged for as much as £45!
As you would expect, What Defines Us is a perfect blend of both producer's sounds and writing styles.

Summary
Slipstream & Sonic Element combine their forces to provide us the superb slice of real purified and absolutely magical trance beauty What Defines Us on Activa's resurrected record label Bordeline. The track has the right pace, drive and the excellent synthy layers to keep the dancefloor pumping along with acid overtones and cool effects. The breakdown is long and teasing with impressive humble but still very elevating classic Ibiza style trance melody that slowly uplift and when the beat strikes back everything sound so complete and perfect to have the flight of your life. Borderline delivers so far impressive tracks that respect the listener and follow the classic trance vibe that the melody drives the track without being overloaded with layers to complicate your listening experience. #PureGold Love iT10.0
