SIT 177 Matt Mancid - Ad Astra

 


Matt Mancid - Ad Astra (SIT 177)

Released on Friday 11th December 2020

Stories In Trance present SIT 177 in the form of this quality two track offering - Ad Astra by Matt Mancid, including the Original and Vaali remix.

Headlining is the Original Mix. German producer Matt Mancid follows up his excellent recent remix of Craig London's Avalanche (SIT 175) with his first original track on SIT since 2013. Uplifting and emotive, Matt blends all the aspects of his diverse production style to create this euphoric masterclass. Dynamically structured and ever evolving, this is a showcase of expertly crafted melodic and atmospheric elements all combining to deliver an energetic and emotive piece of trance.

On remix duty we have Vaali with yet another truly unique interpretation of an original. Vaali follows on from his recent Double A-sided single Aura / Lost (SIT 176) with this genuinely sensational remix. This time out Vaali offers up things in a more uplifting style than his recent work and it delivers with some effect! He adds his own inimitable production finesse to the fineries of the original, along with beautiful atmosphere and a brilliant structure, and it all adds up to a truly superb track. Another exceptional addition to Vaali's immense discography, and surely a late contender for 2020's tune of the year!

Another release that once again shows why Stories In Trance is the most diverse and individual label in trance. Always driven by the ideals that we started out with set alongside our unparalleled attention to detail, we encourage freedom of expression from all involved in our projects. The end result is pure, undiluted creativity. Because of this, and above all, we are proud to put them out there.

SIT 176 Vaali - Aura / Lost

 

Vaali - Aura / Lost (SIT 176)

Released on Friday 13th November 2020

For your consideration, we present the latest release from Stories In Trance in the shape of SIT 176 - here is Vaali with the double A-sided single Aura / Lost.

Arthur Valiev, under his familiar and well regarded Vaali alias follows on from his most recent work - his superb original Mirage (SIT 174, which was supported by Solarstone) - and carries on his top form here with these fantastic productions. Headlining the release is Aura and in keeping with all Arthur's work it shows off his immense production technique and wide range of abilities. Arthur knows how to create great melodies and here the fabulous lead is expertly layered over beautiful atmospherics and a properly dynamic structure that, as we now expect from Vaali productions, is engaging right from the start. 

In the other half of this potent double A-side we find Lost, which like Aura showcases a wide spectrum of Vaali's production finesse. Another fine track, but with a slightly different feel to Aura, yet still retaining all the qualities of Vaali's more progressive sound.

Another release that once again shows why Stories In Trance is the most diverse and individual label in trance. Always driven by the ideals that we started out with and our ever keen attention to detail, we encourage freedom of expression from all involved in our projects. The end result is pure, undiluted creativity. Because of this, and above all, we are proud to put them out there.

SIT 174 Vaali - Mirage (Supported By Solarstone In Pure Trance Radio 250)

 


Vaali - Mirage (SIT 174) 
(Supported By Solarstone In Pure Trance Radio 250)
Released 17th July 2020

Stories In Trance present to you SIT 174 by Vaali with the two track single Mirage. The Original Mix was supported by Solarstone In Pure Trance Radio 250 on 12th August.

Heading the release is, as is proper, the original mix. Arthur Valiev, under his familiar and well regarded Vaali alias follows on from his most recent work - a superb remix of SNDWV's Tucana (SIT 173) - and carries on his top form here with this fantastic production. Much like all Arthur's work this track shows off his immense production technique and wide range of abilities. Arthur knows how to create great melodies and here the fabulous lead is backed up expertly by richly textured atmosphere, beautiful vocal layering and an ever evolving structure that, like all Vaali productions, is engaging right from the start. As supported by Solarstone In Pure Trance Radio 250.

The other half of this potent release is the Soundwave Progressive Remix. Italian producer Adrian Iamandei (under his Soundwave alias) follows on from his last original on SIT - Tucana (SIT 173) - with this superb remix. He expertly blends a euphoric and atmospheric feel, brilliantly balancing the lead melody with beautiful layering and potent percussive elements. Another fantastic reinterpretation from Adrian to add to his genuinely impressive discography of originals and remixes on SIT.

Yet another release that once again shows why Stories In Trance is the most diverse and individual label in trance. Always driven by the ideals that we started out with and our ever keen attention to detail, we encourage freedom of expression from all involved in our projects. The end result is pure, undiluted creativity. Because of this, and above all, we are proud to put them out there.
