Trance Review: Andrew Rayel – The Prophet out 17/1/2025 on Dreamstate Records

 


Trance stalwart Andrew Rayel is stepping up with his debut label appearance on Dreamstate Records with his adrenaline-rushing single "The Prophet."

Andrew Rayel is the crown jewel of the Moldova dance scene, lovingly nicknamed as the "modern-day Mozart," after obsessing over orchestral music and becoming a classically trained pianist during his formative years, he went on to apply those tools to create one of the most celebrated catalogs in trance music. He's making his debut on Dreamstate Records with his new single.

"The Prophet" is a high-octane trance offering brimming with wonder, building around a spoken-word vocal loop about creationism that is reinforced with soaring arpeggios, ethereal pads, lashing synth leads, croaking stabs, thunderous kicks, and a peak-time propulsive drive. As a regular fixture on Dreamstate lineups around the world, the world-renowned sensation is gearing up for a stellar performance at Dreamstate Europe.

[item value="10"]Andrew Rayel – The Prophet [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"] Andrew Rayel, a highly acclaimed trance artist, has consistently delivered exceptional tracks. His performances and radio shows have garnered significant influence, and his labels consistently release impressive music. Andrew Rayel’s latest track, “The Prophet,” is an energetic 136 BPM power trance anthem. The track features stunning metallic basslines, razor-sharp kicks, and raw percussion, skillfully crafted to form the foundation of this future favorite. A cool spoken vocal sample adds a futuristic touch, culminating in an explosive breakdown with a euphoric ravey synthy hook that will linger in the mind for days. The climax builds to an ultimate euphoric trance experience, maintaining a subtle darkness and moodiness. Imagine thousands of clubbers dancing frenetically to this infectious monster tune. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
