Having started 2013 with the loud bang that was ‘Apache’, the road is cleared for more Fisherman & Hawkins brilliance. Their latest smash ‘Gold’ tells us one thing; these Dutchies never fail to deliver.

A solid feature in the Beatport Trance Top 3 for weeks, as well as a quick rise in the Main Chart. ‘Apache’ was, and is, the biggest trance tune to hit early 2013. Though still hammered by the big jocks, Fisherman & Hawkins are all set with some new ammo.

‘Gold’ is the shiny new tune that wipes out the cold winter feel and welcomes a warm, proggy flow. Armed with a tight sets of pounding bass, seductive synths and feel-good melody, this one’s all set for the Miami season.

South Korean producers Kago Pengchi & Alexan make their debut on Trance All Stars Records with the uplifting trancer called Sagarmatha. On remix duties we have no one other than Philippe El Sisi to boost things a little bit up like we are used from him. As second remix we have Antony Waldhorn to deliver a guitar mix for some extra emotional sweetness. Kago Pengchi & Alexan – Sagarmatha (Philippe El Sisi Remix)

Egyptian DJ & Producer Philippe El Sisi has been in many tracklists from top DJ's around the globe. This remix of Sagarmatha for instance has recently played by Armin van Buuren in ASOT 598. A steady kick , fresh percussion and a driving bass line are the key elements from Philippe and are once again present in this remix of his. Adding an extra electric guitar to the classic break down has been a big surprise for me, but it worked out nicely though. Like the original mix this climax has a lot of energy as well, and fans of Philippe will definitely loving this! Proper uplifting remix by this excellent producer!

Lence & Pluton present their debut single “Native Home” on the In Trance We Trust imprint.

The act Lence & Pluton is in fact a project of two independent musicians united by only one purpose - to bring Ukrainian music product to new heights. Allergic to monotony, their goal is to always create a sound that varies from track to track, all the while keeping a close eye on sound quality. Lence & Pluton like to mix melody styles, based on the drive and emotion of trance music. When playing live as DJs, the two producers mix tracks in such a fashion that they deliver the audience a set that they consider "a cocktail of musicians that know the trends in the dance industry". Supported by Tiësto, Markus Schulz, Rank1, Aly & Fila, Sean Tyas, Dash Berlin, Richard Durand, Pedro del Mar and many others, Lence & Pluton have released their output on Armada, Echelon, Unearthed, Redux and now present their debut on the In Trance We Trust imprint.

“Native Home” is a straight up trance slammer that follows in the footsteps of the unique sound currently coming from the Ukraine. With plenty of cosmic and deeply touching synth programming, Lence & Pluton have created a gem with a certain kind of gusto that may refer to what the title stands for: their native country. True to their motto, “Native Home” is far from monotonous and will soon find its way to a sparkling, all night live set.

After a period of silence, it’s now time for Thomas Bronzwaer to kill it. He makes his grand return at the A State of Trance label and with the double E.P. of ‘Proteus’ shows to never have lost his touch for quality trance!

For Dutchman Thomas Bronzwaer, there’s ever been a silver lining on the horizon. His early classics ‘Collider’, ‘Certitude’ and ‘Titan’ helped him built a steady reputation as one of EDM’s most promising producer talents. Praised by the DJ elite and loved by the crowd, his productions always share that unique glow. That same glow can be found on ‘Proteus’ and ‘Coherence’, the first Thomas Bronzwaer originals in 2 years!

An intricate maze of utterly balanced bass, kick and melody kick starts the energetic and intriguing tune of ‘Proteus’, as where ‘Coherence’ is much more stripped down and aims for the proggy side of things. Awash with a deep groove and a funky rhythm, this is exactly what makes separates a Bronzwaer tune from anyone else’s.

After 15 years of exploring musical boundaries and establishing himself as one of the most innovative electronic music producers today, Andy Moor will finally release his long-awaited debut album Zero Point One on July 6.

Zero Point One is packed with 18 thought-provoking, original tracks and each one offers a unique glimpse into the creative process of a self-proclaimed perfectionist. From deep, mysterious ambient to melodic trance and vocal melodies, across the spectrum to rocking break beats and the thick bass of progressive, Andy Moor has fused his beloved sound into a complete package of timeless productions.

"I felt like the number 'zero point one' was equivalent to the process of making this album," says Andy. "It's an intriguing number because it is so small, yet so much bigger than zero. I had been writing the album for many years, but as I was nearing the end, I decided to scrap the older tracks and start over with new ones. So this version of the album contains tracks made in the last six months, despite the entire process taking years."

The wait will be well worth it for fans anticipating new sounds from the Grammy-nominated producer and DJ. Zero Point One features collaborations with some of the most recognizable vocalists and producers in EDM, including Meredith Call, Sue McLaren, Betsie Larkin, Carrie Skipper, Ashley Wallbridge and Orkidea. Sure to be treasured for years to come, Andy believes that with every listen, a new appreciation and context for the music will emerge.

"I feel my music normally takes a few listens to fully appreciate. Reflect on the album from a different perspective and you'll have a different understanding each time," he says.

As the mastermind behind so many of today's biggest classics, Andy Moor has delivered a work of art that can only come from years of passion and fans will be craving "Moor" music after wearing out their speakers from keeping Zero Point One on repeat.
