Epiphany of Sound is back with Sounds from Robert Nickson, Scott Bond, Rinaly, Mojashi, Manuel le Saux and others. Also I dug out the classic Departure by Dave202 which has been a massive tune back then!
The next Epiphany of Sound is here! Now I can reinstall some new tunes, though most of them are not from 2019. But I had to play them either way since the beats, the melodies, the synths, the atmosphere is epic! There’s a somehow psychedelic remix by Ciaran McAuley, which also features uplifting elements, there’s Miroslav Vrlik with his massive style, there’s ReOrder featuring male vocals or the reworks of We Control The Sunlight and Mind of the Wonderful. They all had to be included and add up to a pretty powerful episode!
The anniversary episode is finally here! I started the Epiphany of Sound podcast in 2013 and back then it was a great step to professionalize my work. I produced the opening and the soundbits to brand my podcast and build it around the more powerful nuances in Trance. I’ve had some really great episodes I like to listen to once in a while and over at hearthis or Mixcloud you can really listen to all the episodes!
The anniversary episode focusses on tracks I haven’t played often enough or that I can’t stop to play. Sometimes they’re from the second row of successful tracks, not the top played tracks in the genre, but that’s what I love about them! Some of them are from the pre-Epiphany of Sound era, which is pretty long ago in regard of such a quick industry. The name list is too long to reproduce it here: Daniel Kandi, Ferry Tayle, Ferry Corsten, DNS Project, Suncatcher, 7 Skies, Temple One, Giuseppe Ottaviani, John O’Callaghan…nearly every track in here is a classic!
Thus you shouldn’t hesitate and get this 2 hour mix playing! Press play and enjoy!
Epiphany of Sound is back within very few days! This episode is full of floating melodies, not so much the powerful Trance hooks you hear sometimes. I love those aethereal pads, some plucks or pointing pianos from the likes of Ferry Tayle, Suncatcher, Alessandra Roncone or Johan Gielen.
The „classic“ is of Andain’s Promises which has been reworked by Chris Schweizer last year. Still a great tune!
This time Epiphany of Sound features progressive tunes nearly to half time and turns to the more uplifting ones later. Also, I didn’t include any vocal tunes this time which is rare, but I love vocals and promise you will hear some of them next time! Most of the tunes have been released in 2018 already, but I also promise I will play more new music in the next episode.
For the classic I picked an Andy Blueman remix. The iconic producer made a remix of Neal Scarborough’s Kanya back in 2010 which is nearly 10 years ago. Where have the years gone? Anyway this couldn’t be spared and so it wraps up this episode!
The latest installment of Epiphany of Sound explores some not too big names, who have but released on bigger labels. Have you heard of Rituraj Upadhyay, of Aleksey Gunichev & DreamLife or Volmax? Not too well known, but they really deliver melodies from heaven. I threw in some Cold Rush, Steve Allen and Phillippe el Sisi and voilá here’s around an hour of uplifting music!
Slowly I’m getting back on track with „Epiphany of Sound“ mixing more and more regularly. Here is episode 96 with some back catalogue tunes from 2018 still which can’t be missed. It’s Driftmoon, Phillip J, Solarstone, Tranzvission, Manuel Roca and others which present super saw melodies and driving beats! For the classic moment I rediscovered Alex M.O.R.P.H.’s New Horizons and loved how Mike Shiver remixed it. Just awesome music!
Having the yearmixes published I’m going to unheard sounds on Epiphany of Sound again. Dmitry Cooper opens this time with a melodic piano track and others follow with beautiful melodies. Of course I included some tunes that were part of my yearmix 2018! But the finisher is reserved for Andy Blueman’s classic Nyctalopia which is a tune from 2007!
In 2017 I presented a best of the remakes that were produced in 2016, but I never took the time to do that for 2017. With 2018 gone I now grabbed all the remakes from 2017 and 2018 to mix a set with all of them for 2 years in a row. There are so many classics remade, which sometimes seems obsolete but other times is a real plus in modern sets. Sometimes even the original artists give their tracks a retouch like Steve Helstrip (The Thrillseekers) one of his greatest productions „Affinity“. Nitrous Oxide’s „Follow You“ is even so popular that it got two remakes in this mix. Prepare for some sweet melodies!
