Luke Terry (Borderline, Digital Society, Suanda) takes the deep & poignant 'Rust' and gives it a shiny uplift for the Pure Trance 10 compilation. Rethinking the original's melancholic layers may have been daunting to some, but Newcastle's finest was unperturbed & the track works incredibly well at a jaunty 135 bpm, glittering arpeggios aplenty raise the spirits, and the beautiful lead melody steals the show. Fabulous. www.instagram.com/richsolarstone www.twitter.com/richsolarstone www.facebook.com/solarstone www.instagram.com/superfrogsaves www.twitter.com/superfrogsaves www.facebook.com/superfrogsaves www.instagram.com/luketerry www.twitter.com/luketerry www.facebook.com/luketerrymusic
Two UK producers team up for the fabulous 'Classic Dreams', a 128bpm trip into the sound of progressive and expressive trance music. The original mix is a tapestry of delicate melodies, absorbing emotive pads and riffs aplenty - all the best bits of trance music at a relaxed bpm. Solarstone's Stripped Retouch does exactly as the title describes; stripping the track layers back to a deeper, heads-down state - focusing on the groove and key hypnotic elements for an intensive workout on the dancefloor. www.facebook.com/Bridgertrance www.twitter.com/Bridgertrance www.instagram.com/bridgertrancemusic
Every fan who knows their trance history is aware of Paul Moelands aka Octagen - Re:Locate with an extensive discography that goes back to 2003 on labels like Black Hole, Galactive & Fundamental. Less instantly familiar is Simon Anthony (Amsterdam Trance, Molekular Sounds) but together they are a formidable team. The 138 bpm 'Storm Clouds' has hints of the early noughties to it with its Chicane-esque plucks, offbeat bass line, gated claps and Balearic vibes – and these are all great, but even greater is the simple but effective melody unveiled at the break – this is pure & positive trance music that will put smiles all over the dancefloor. www.instagram.com/octagen www.instagram.com/_simon.anthony_
Macker (a.k.a. Chris MacDonald) returns to Pure Trance for the first time since 2021's Lost in Space with this exquisite +9-minute serving of 130 bpm deep, trance music. Arrakis has been a staple of Solarstone's DJ sets for over 12 months and never fails to lock in the dancefloor with its hypnotic loops and grooves, building tension & holding back its payload for a glorious post-break release. Scott Cameron follows up last year's 112 single with a charming 135 bpm remix of Arrakis that escalates the energy along with the BPM. With crisp percussion, twittering acid, a general upping of the ante and an engaging, non-generic arrangement Scott's remix really hits the spot.

Originally released on Serious in 2000, this classic from Adam Pracy a.k.a. The Conductor & The Cowboy was a huge hit back at the millennium & now it returns via Pure Trance with a bundle of fabulous new remixes - this is the 3rd and final remix pack from Pure Trance. We kick off with another of Enigma State's fantastic retro-style productions, which theoretically would mean that his remix should sound as if it were one of the remixes released in 2000. This 138 bpm +9-minute epic is brilliantly done with an intricate and clearly well-thought-out arrangement that introduces many new elements whilst staying faithful to the original. We also have a handy Dub for those long, strobe-fuelled nights. Chris Nycon ups the ante to 142bpm with his psy-tinged, acidically gurgling, zappy-kick-propelled thumper of a remix that surprisingly breaks to some lovely pianos before dropping into a gated-synth-fest with a wicked vibe about it. Finally, and rounding off this series of remixes, is a gorgeous chill-out revision by Magdelayna a.k.a. Adam Rodziewicz, a chap who has been passionately remixing classic trance tracks in his 'Chilled Out Euphoria' style since the mid 2000s and he clearly loves Feeling This Way - as he does it proper justice. It's been a pleasure issuing this series of remixes of such a wonderful record, and we thank Adam Pracy for trusting Pure Trance with this task.
