Bang into 2019 and DT8 Project return with a brand new EP featuring two enormous cuts - The Edge and Million Ways.

The Edge is a no holds barred, nu-skool, uplifting trance standard with sublime vocal and strings whilst Million Ways is a super cool, haunting & deeper progressive, sample looped vocal cut.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]One of the most significant figures in the trance scene from London, UK is the beloved Darren Tate. His exceptional project DT8 Project returns with the massive Leave It All Behind vol2 that includes the tracks The Edge and Million Ways. The Edge is a magnificent slice of high class eclectic uplifting trance with pulsating driving basslines, pounding drums and on top cinematic strings, melancholic synthy stabs and magical breakdown with haunting sad piano theme followed by slowly rising hi-nrg synthy riffs leading to the hands in the air climax that ensure to lift you from the ground without any cheesy elements insight. Classy and atmospheric as trance should be for sure. Million Ways is smooth warm up style of track with chunky grooves, bouncy drums, dark synthy stabs, cinematic strings and truly warm sounds perfect to listen at home or in a club environment with slight touch of balearic infusions too. #PureGold Love IT [/content]

The eponymous lead track, ‘Leave It All Behind’ features the flawless vocals of Danielle Rowe, best known for her 2003 Poloroid trance classic ‘So Damn Beautiful’. It’s addictive melody, goose bump inducing chords and empowering lyrics inviting you to embrace the future make this as euphoric dance floor club track you can’t help dancing too.

Late at Night takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions. It begins gently with Richard Walter’s emotive and haunting vocals before Darren’s dramatic chords start building the energy and tension until to reaches a melancholy yet deeply uplifting climax. The result is a perfect end-of-night track which will send shivers down your spine.

Finally, Counting the Stars draws on elements of liquid drum & bass has a more chilled and enchanting vibe and with wistful top line provided by upcoming London based singer-songwriter Sasha Brown over an uplifting melody.

 [item value="10"]DT8 Project - Leave It All Behind EP[/item]
 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]DT8 Project aka Darren Tate is back on Maelstrom with his colorful epic trance Leave It All Behind EP. It contains 5 tracks to choose from and 3 of them are excellent versions of Leave It All Behind. Darren Tate club mix is a flowing travelling production with pulsating bass, pumping drums, spanky kicks and superb classic strings with cinematic edge plus huge synths that come to highlight the melodramatic touch on the singers performance that is simply classy and heartfelt to the maximum. Original club mix is even deeper groovier smooth with bubbly basslines and punchy groove while on top the vocal and the psy trance infused synths are added along with breakbeat section in the breakdown. Late At Night is a magical melodic proglifting trancer with memorable synthy hook running on top of the pumping groove while the male vocal and the lyrics are absolutely stunning supported by classy strings and synthy hooks with that classic trance touch. Lastly Counting The Stars is the chill out moment of the package with breaks and old school broken drum n bass grooves while on top piano chords, warm strings, luscious sound design and superb female vocal. This is trance EP as it should be done. #PureGold Love IT  [/content]

 [item value="10"]Quake & Rob Tissera - The Day Will Come (Nicholson Remix)[/item]
 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]The stunning uplifting euphoric vocal trancer by Quake & Rob Tissera entitled The Day Will Come returns full on hard uplifting trance style by the man of the moment Nicholson who delivered already an ace remix for the stunning Dreams by Quench. For this remix he follows his usual arrangement of hard hitting rough basslines, stomping ferocious drums, thick kicks and of course huge epic synths and anthemic emotional strings to contemplate and support the emotional attachment with the always brilliant and optimistic female vocal that shines with quality and diva style performance. The breakdown will built anticipation and the climax will bring the earthquake to please and satisfy any highly energized trancer older and younger alike. #PureGold Love iT[/content]
