Following last years Cyber Sunshine single and Vantage Point EP, plus the formers expansion into a Deluxe Remix Pack EP just this Spring, trusty Dutch trance traders Match Box are miraculously back with their fourth consecutive glistening Goddezz release. This time, its a double offering whose boundless celestial charm again centres around the star we owe it all to: think of High En3rgy as the sunset daydream and Clints remix the sunrise epiphany. Spanning 8 minutes and 7 seconds that slip by all too soon, High En3rgy is a lucent, dreamlike journey not easily forgotten. Layering a faintly melancholic and hauntingly simple melody over a nonetheless pulsating bassline, it accomplishes something rare: an emotive marrying of the wistful and the rousing. The effect is a plucky, heartening sound that walks a tightrope between nostalgic reflection and enduring anticipation. Its delicate yet driving - the gorgeous sonic expression of a sunset daydream that could leave you leaning either way. Whether you emerge from that musing trance with a lump in your throat or a fire in your belly, Clints remix is the impossibly ideal next step. Faithfully refracting its originators sound whilst instantly supercharging the mood from spirited to high-spirited, its giddy rhythm and buoyant-turned-bouncy beat inject pure, immediate, perhaps emergency enlivenment. Its more than fun, playful or invigorating: its irresistibly, heroically stirring - and once its sunrise synths come scorching over the horizon, youre passing through gleeful exhilaration into sublime elation, with no hope of holding back any tears.
In early 2023, rave acolytes Match Box nourished us with their euphoric jungle exploration Cyber Sunshine. Later on, rumors of secret mixes from Dylan Forbes, Angel Dlite & Eoin DJ began to surface with this bountiful release Goddezz gathers these floating spirits into a whole for the first time accompanied by an illuminating new Dutch Sunset club mix from Match Box.
