ALBUM: Mike EFEX - Collected: Volume One out on Coldharbour Recordings


 Highlighting a selection of his most significant contributions to Coldharbour Recordings, Mike EFEX presents the opening offering from his Collected series; including the previously unreleased Orbiter and dub version of Lights.

A continuous beacon of quality across both trance and techno for well over a decade, it's only appropriate to reflect and shine a light on the reasons why Mike EFEX is one of Coldharbour Recordings' most beloved artists.

His In Search of Sunrise entries in Midnight Colours, Evolution and remix of Lange's Angel Falls are included, along with melodic techno offerings Shadow & Flame and Visions in the Dark. And for euphoric techno lovers, Monsters is complimented by the fast-tracked Orbiter, as well as the dub mix of Lights, which previously was made exclusively for Markus Schulz's live sets.

[item value="10"]Mike EFEX - Collected: Volume One [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Mike EFEX is one of the most significant artists of the darker techno oriented trance sound on Coldharbour Black. Some of his finest moments are included on Collected: Volume One. If you are from another planet and it happens not to know yet this incredible talent just take some moments to enjoy some of the tracks included in this album. Powerful energetic driving basslines, thumping metallic drums, techy kicks, rough synths, dystopian atmosphere, melancholic strings and melodies and superb arrangement that delivers unforgettable moments on the dancefloor! You close your eyes and dance hypnotised transferred to planet Mike EFEX. I don't want to choose for you as I'm big admirer of his work and I recommend this album very much!#PureGold Love IT[/content]
