2004: “The Summer Anthem”!

Cooler · **Posted:** Sun Apr 18, 2004 8:17 pm

Well, I’ve just made a list with tracks I know or think could become this year’s biggest summer anthem. Give me your thoughts about me list and/or tell me your own list!

Above & Beyond feat. Zoe Johnston – No One On Earth (Incl. remixes by Gabriel & Dresden, Above & Beyond and Smith & Pledger)
Comment: every remix these guys make always gain lots of spupport, and with their second “own” production coming up with interesting remixes, this track is born to sell a lot of copies. The vocals in this track is very nice (and special), and the progressive touch makes it well even more original.

Aly & Fila – Spirit Of KA (Incl. remixes by Markus Schulz and Positive Way(s))
Comment: new production from the quiet tranceduo from Egypt. This production includes two very interesting versions; one of them by German/American master Markus Schulz.

Armin van Buuren - Untitled (Incl. Solid Globe Remix)
Comment: Armin always delivers top stuff, and with a Solid Globe remix coming up, I’m sure this track will do some heavy damage on the dancefloors.

Astura – Cassiopeia/? (the B-side is still untitled)
Comment: the follow up to “Orion’s Belt” from the great Swiss producer Andy Prinz, I’m quite sure that these two tracks will be supported by lots of premier DJ’s.

Diver & Ace – It’s Not Over Now (Incl. remixes by Sunstroke, Solid Slide, Astura vs. Timeok and Greenhead)
Comment: to be released on the new established label Offshore Music, with four remixes from four great producers, this track can’t fail.

Empyreal Sun – From Dark To Light
Comment: the follow up to “Twisted Reality” that did great on the floors all over Europe. The new track from this excellent Swedish producer has already gained support from another Swedish producer/DJ, Andreas Lindell.

Envio – Love Poison
Comment: a much more energic track than Ashkan’s previous production, but still with the massive guitar melody. Signed to Armada, and all their releases sell 000000(much).

MAC J – Nightware/Womaniser
Comment: expect all Rank 1 productions to sound massive, and these two tracks will be no exception.

Mat Silver vs. Tony Burt – Untitled (Incl. M.O.R.P.H. Remix)
Comment: the follow up to the massive track “Ultimate Wave. Hard as always from these two excellent hard-trance producers, but not that HARD, and with a M.O.R.P.H. remix coming up, I’m very sure that Above The Sky will sell lots of copies of this one.

Matt Hardwick vs. Smith & Pledger – Connected
Comment: OMG what a beautiful track; with a melody and vocals that blow your heart & mind totally away.

Matti Laamanen – Obsession
Comment: uplifting as always, and reminds me of his remix of “Feelings”.

M.I.D.O.R. & Six4Eight – Mirage (incl. remixes by Headset and MK-S vs. Nickson Remix)
Comment: these guys have done a lot of great productions since their first real breakthrew with “Cloud City” (together with DJ Precision). This release includes a very interesting remix by two of the best upcoming producers in tranceland nowadays. This track has a great summer feeling, that makes you feel the like being on a sunny beach.

Pulser – Cloudwalking 2004 (Incl. The Thrillseekers Remix)
Comment: another “rework” of an old classic. I’m quite sure this track will sell a lot and sound great as well.

Re: Locate – Hurricane/? (don’t remember the name of the B-side)
Comment: the follow up to one of the biggest tracks last year (this year aswell) “Waterfall” this production is born to be a massive floorkiller.

Ronski Speed – E.O.S.
Comment: the last productions from this excellent German producer, with a beautiful melody so good that you almost fall alsleep this track is born to become a HIT.

Signum – The TimeLord
Comment: a more progressive oiriented production from two of the most appreciated producers in trancemusic (what so ever). Since it’s signed to Armada, I’m sure it will sell a lot.

Solar Stone – Speak In Symphaty (Incl. remixes by Plastic Angel and Mike Shiver)
Comment: two new versions of another “old” track. This time from Afterglow owner Elef himself and Swedish Michael “Mike” Shiver, this track will bring you in the right summer mood.

The Thrillseekers – Synaesthesia 2004 (Incl. remixes by Steve “himself” and Pulser)
Comment: one of the most talk-about tracks this year. This orignal track was one that seriously got me into trance, and I’m sure the new versions don’t destroy the incredible melody from the original version.

definitely some good picks. I'm interested in hearing the new Sonorous single (last sunday i think its called). Pulser - Square One should be nice too.

All good tunes, I wouldn't call them ALL summer anthems. Some are going to be instant classics.

Id say No One On Earth will be a summer choon.

And the others are kinda like "I cant wait to get them, but they wont be ANTHEMS" does that make sense?

But I will be playing them all lol
peace
