 Crashing onto the scene with 'Awakening' and the soul searching 'Dawn Of The Dark', we are delighted to welcome the very talented Rem-X onto HTE for the first time, with yet another emotive hard trancer for 2022. A rich palette of sounds from Rem here, 'Wandering Mind' should go down a treat for those into the sounds of Alphazone, Jon The Baptist, S.H.O.K.K. and mysterious HT vibes - Belter!

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Rem-X service another hard trance slice that will please the fans of the genre for sure. His track Wandering Mind has the tough punchy bass in your face sound plus metallic kicks and acid layers to enhance its raw and twisted sound. The synthy riff used is very powerful and will lift your senses straight away with cool heavenly trance voices. Suspense, intensity and big surprise on how this banger develops after the long and cinematic teasing and turning breakdown, it will keep clubbers focused on it from the start to the last beat as the thunderous synthy allowed to dominate the big climax! #PureBassPower Love IT[/content]

Malaysia's Yusef Kifah has made a big impression on the label already, with hard assaults 'Evolution' and 'Hallucinate' rockin the Beatport charts, compilation requests and worldwide playlist inclusions. Side-stepping over to our red uplifting division, Yusef drops the aggression levels this time, engaging epic staccato synths, clever melody edits, plus a whole cauldron of dark noises, cool fx and dance-floor friendly elements.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Hard Trance Europe is one of the leading labels of the harder sounds and now the upcoming producer Yusef Kifah returns with his stunning Intrinsic. The basslines is hard and edgy, the kick and the drums are fat and banging while on top anthemic synthy hooks are added to give the track to its euphoric feel. The climax is powerful and unstoppable as you wish to be with that synthy stabs preparing you for the perfect time of your life on the dancefloor! Euphoric and furius for sure.

'Nick The Kid feat The Nameless Girl - Bright Light is one my favourite tracks right now! Summer 2013

KUTSKI (Radio 1) on Nick The Kid
''One of the true legends of the dance scene'



Tracklisting and comments by Nick The Kid
1. Alex Di Stefano - My Shadow - In Trance We Trust 
Sometimes you hear a track and you just know it will be one of the biggest releases of the year, a tidal wave of sound, just love all the elements used and overall energy, a real masterpiece and perfect for an opener. 

2. Conductor & The Cowboy - Feeling This Way (Bryan Kearney & Adam Ellis Remix) - CDR
Being a Koolwaters regular back in the 90’s this production from resident/promoter Marc Vedo is etched on my mind. This rework really captures all the magic of the original, but is of course a lot more playable in the current climate. Saying that, I did cheekily close my set at Judgement Sundays, Ibiza a few years back with the original and it simply ook the roof off.  Those vocals will never get old. (for me anyway!). 

3. SolarStone & Scott Bond - Red Line Highway (Factor B's Extended Back To The Future Remix) - Armada 
Big fan of Factor B’s work, this classic rework is of course an absolute monster! I hands-down love it over the original. 

4. Solis & Sean Truby - Skin Deep - STANDERWICK Remix - Infrasonic 
Going back a few years, this was by far my favourite vocal-trance production from 2014. The lead synth is also outstanding on this. Always gets a great reaction in my sets. 

5. Lost Tribe - Gamemaster (The Sixth Sense remix) - CDR 
No introduction needed here, a classic in anyone’s books. Killer reworking here from Sixth Sense for 2018 and a nice powerful alternative to the original. It’s a free download too. 

6. Nick The Kid, RDK - Light Follows Darkness - Discover 
Probably my favourite track that I’ve had signed to Discover, really pleased with the sound and energy we captured on this. A melting pot of styles that happened to work on the day, proud of this one and always fun to work with Rich RDK. 

7. Nick The Kid & RDK - Flight Path  - HTE Recordings 
Currently charting on the download stores, a more current track from us on my own label HTE, the reactions have been simply amazing from the DJs. Plus, my last house where we wrote it was right next to Heathrow Airport, hence the title - a nice reminder of a great house and housemates too ;-) 

8. Nick The Kid & Louk - Dreams (Wavetraxx Remix) - HTE Recordings 
Dreams which I co-wrote with Louk was my first ever proper vinyl signing in 2004, exciting times back then! If you’d told me 13 years later I would be re-releasing it on my own label via Black Hole Distribution, with fresh remixes from S.H.O.K.K, Wavetraxx & Tempestarii, I’d have said you’d done too many speckled love-hearts!. Absolutely love the emotion Wavetraxx has added with this new version, looking forward to the reactions on all mixes in March. 

9. Ali Wilson & Chris North - Wanna Play - Luca Antolini & Andrea Montorsi Remix - HTE Recordings 
Coming soon on HTE, I thought I’d throw in a world exclusive from the label. This remix from the biggest names in Italian Hard Trance has got some huge crossover potential. I love how these guys always come up with a more futuristic direction in their Hard Trance productions without losing their existing appeal. This is dynamite! 

10. Nick The Kid & Jake Nicholls - The Looking Glass - HTE Recordings 
Last year Jake and I wanted to join the Bonzai 25 Year celebrations, a label that was very influential to both of us in the beginning. Sadly Bonzai aren’t releasing classic sounding material these days. (We did try of course lol), Instead I commissioned Baby Doc to do a 90’s style remix and we released the project for a bit of fun on HTE. It’s currently in promo and the reactions have really put a smile on our faces. It was really cool to work on a track purely for nostalgia’s sake. 

11. Lab4 & Nick The Kid - Stranger Things - HTE Recordings
Massive fan of Lab4 from back in the day, always tried to book them for my event Hindsight, but sadly it never came off for one reason or another. This year I finally made the booking happen and we also collaborated on a track together. So a double win and one off the bucket list. A great mix of both our styles on this and a fitting way to end the mix I reckon at 145! :-)

First impressions count right? So, for our first release on Hard Trance Europe via Black Hole Recordings, we have employed not one but two of the european trance scene’s most seasoned and respected producers on this epic double header EP. Both Space Raven and Wavetraxx are responsible for a myriad of epic melodies over the last two decades, whether under their own names or the countless aliases adopted - classic and memorable hooks are what both of these guys do best!

Told In A Whisper brings classic hard trance elements smack bang into 2017 with modern production techniques combined with raw uplifting energy, these tracks took no second listens during the A&R process and were an easy choice to begin the HTE journey with.

Wavetraxx ’s mix effortlessly drives home that end of the night euphoria with it’s glockenspiel-esque interlude, powerful synth structures and high octane drive right from the of!f! Space Raven’s take on things follows suit of his recently crafted uplifting masterpieces and will certainly have the uplifting trance community salivating for some time to come.

 [item value="10"]Space Raven vs. Wavetraxx - Told In A Whisper[/item]
 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Space Raven vs. Wavetraxx combine their unbeatable forces for Told In A Whisper. Two amazing trance legends bring beautiful melodies merged with heavy basslines, rough punchy drums and excellent energy that will move not only mountains but whole continents. Both versions included are perfectly produced with that dirty underground hard rave trance flavour in them. You simply press play and you enjoy the fast and furious ride upon the pink clouds and the excellent melody that will relax before the coming of the storm. Equally enjoyable and most importantly effective both tracks bring hard trance back and personally I'm super happy to see all these legends back. #PureGold Love iT[/content]

Hot on the heels of our first release comes ‘DA CAPO’ which translates nicely into ‘New Beginning’, an apt working title for our fresh on the shelf label at Black Hole.

We are more than excited to present Swiss legend S.H.O.K.K into the fold with a track that we feel encompasses magical elements from the golden era of hard trance, alongside some more futuristic sounds to drive things forward! If you are a fan of seminal S.H.O.K.K classics, you certainly won’t be disappointed here!

S.H.O.K.K - Da Capo (Ali Wilson’s Tech Remix) - HTE

Ali Wilson who can usually be found releasing across the spectrum on labels such as Vandit, Black Hole, Garuda and Ying Yang (to name just a few), lends his inimitable tech flavour to HTE and opens this track up to an even wider audience. With a heavy nod to the past, Ali delivers a summertime weapon very much in the same vein as when Carl Cox tipped him as his favourite producer of the year, a few years back!

Global release date: 24.07.2017

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Hard Trance Europe unite the hard trance fanatics under the same roof with quality events. Now they present their own record label with fantastic tunes. The second release is De Capo by S.H.O.K.K. who knows how to shock big time. His track adopts a very playful tough driving bassline that will make you wiggle and jump a little bit. The melody is euphoric with sunkissed balearic touches perfect to raise mind, body and soul. The climax is full on and bass cranking as you wish to be so hold on tight and enjoy the ride. The beloved Ali Wilson transforms the track into a bouncy full on proglifting tech trancer with smashing drums, wobbly basslines and tribal groove. The breakdown is long and teasing with euphoric themes followed by techy climax that is bass focused. The second breakdown is shorter and leads to the uplifting melodic crescendo moment that will make many trancers cry with joy and happiness. Top notch package. #PureGold Love it [/content]
