Release Notes
==========================================================================
"On both the singles and mix-comp front, Sied van Riel's juice to
produce has shown no signs of abating over the last six months. With the
momentum flowing, he's gotten together with US singer-songwriter Alicia
Madison for a thoroughbred release that's going to give summer one
almighty lift! Alongside the stellar Original Mix, 'Gravity's gravities
are reinforced by a contingent of high-grade European remixes, with the
likes of Sneijder, David Forbes and Bastian Salbart dropping
trance-translations. Also on board are remakes from the other side of
the pond, with house king Jose Nu±ez and Chicago duo Stephano & Torio
giving 'Gravity' yet more pull.
The intro of Sied's Original mix engages the prog-drive, setting up an
atmospheric, moodily powerful transit to the drop and the vocals of
Alicia Madison. She mirrors that theme to a tee, with introspective
verses, which - backed by the Riel one's surging riffs - finally lift
the chorus to its big conclusion.
With a string of A-list attention-grabbing singles, the impact of
Gdansk's Bastian Salbart has been sizeable over the last six months.
That fine work continues with a remix of 'Gravity that's tough when it
needs to be, atmospheric & emotive when it wants to be, but works the
floor like a mutha from first beat till last!
David Forbes' Full On Mix ups the BPM count to peak-hour speed,
deepening the drums and letting the B-lines run wild. In the drop he
masses the pads, bringing heart, soul & yet further implication to
Alicia's vocals, before tying it all off with a force multiplier of a
mainline.
Preparing to hit another remix home run, it might be time to notch that
safety harness a little tighter as Sneijder approaches the plate. The
man on the vocal majority of Planet Trance's lips at the moment, he
primes his mix with tough, ripping beats and the looped and echoed
harmonics of Alicia's tones. Suffusing the break with evocative
savannah-ish chords, he finally recouples the 303, re-engages the synths
and with no small amount of sonic bombast sends his remix of 'Gravity'
clean out of the park!
Trance interpretations locked, Black Hole has ensured that floors of
other natures are equally well serviced. Making a rarer appearance these
day, house is the feeling on Subliminal legend Jose Nu±ez, remap.
Funkily rolling drums, skipping, open hi-hats, Disclosure-ish sub-bass,
EQ with IQ and full effect FX has his mix make short work of more
groove-orientated floors.
Last but by no means least in this most epic of remix line-ups comes the
pairing of Joe Christofano & Victor Comforte a.k.a. DJs Sephano & Torio.
Hot off the back of their remix of Tiδsto's 'Just Be' earlier in the
year, they deliver 'Gravity' comparably fine festival-ism thrills and
spills of the electro/prog-house variety.
You've seen the movie, now hear the track! A true force of nature,
'Gravity' gravitates to dancefloors this July."
