Dimitris Kechagias Review:

Farius - Clear Mind10

Summary

Farius has released the exceptional album “Synapse” on Enhanced Music, and now on FSOE, he unveils his uplifting trance side, demonstrating his versatility in crafting a diverse range of euphoric and colorful sounds. His 135 BPM future trance anthem, “Clear Mind,” stands as a remarkable production that fearlessly embraces the purest forms of uplifting trance, incorporating elements of classic 90s trance to create an exhilarating experience. “Clear Mind” is a straightforward and impactful track with a clear and direct sound and arrangement, devoid of unnecessary surprises. However, it is complemented by heartfelt melodies that serve as a cathartic release, healing emotional wounds and fostering a sense of clarity. The track is characterized by pulsating basslines, thumping drums, energetic kicks, and a powerful sound that evokes a sense of movement and elevation.

10.0

Overall Score

The breakdown section features sunkissed and carefree melodies with a touch of melancholy, leading to a carefully composed climax with a diverse array of synthy plucks and a superb female vocal that elevates the listener and builds to a crescendo. The track concludes with a balearic optimistic sound that effectively sets the tone for the new year with a resounding bang. #PureGold Love IT
