Featured on Armin van Buuren’s weekly radio show A State of Trance episode 389, the vocalist for the hit songs Iio – Rapture and Crash and Burn is back for another hit.  In terms of a vocal trance track, the vocals mesh very well with Andy Moor’s amazing basslines, and the two synergize to make each other better.  In terms of overall production quality, a very high quality track — in Andy Moor quality standards, very average/slightly below average.  That statement in itself should go to show why Moor is one of the most talented producers today.  Either way though, it’s definitely catchy and worth a listen.

Overall Score: 8/10

Cosmic Gate ft. Emma Hewitt – Not Enough Time (Club Mix)

The old days where Cosmic Gate would pound out clubs with deafening hard trance and tech trance are long over.  We here at Trance Dance Music considered Cosmic Gate one of our favorite artists for pure dance music back then, but have been forced a few years ago to re-evaluate our position on them.  Their sound has definitely changed, but they still make some quality tracks that are a joy to listen to.  Luckily, this is one of them.  This track also debuted in a State of Trance 389.  Layered with both chilling and relaxing ambiance, the vocals integrate very well with the rest of the song as well.  This is definitely a track to grab and check out, superior by far to the slower and repetitive nature of the Andy Dugoid remix.  After all, this is the Trance Dance Music blog, not the slow and stationary music blog.

Overall Score: 8.5/10
