Artist: Robert Burian Label: Tetsuo Genre: Trance (Tech Trance)

Talla 2XLC's Tetsuo label strike pure gold with their 4th release which sees Robert Burian serving up a menacing, tough tech-trancer, steering away from the label's uplifting direction. This is pure dancefloor material and guaranteed to do the damage. Essential!

Artist: Riley & Durrant Label: Nu Breed Music Genre: Trance (Progressive)

Having dominated the UK Trance scene for many years, Riley & Durrant now unveil their latest offering and with it a slight change in direction. Built around razor sharp beats and a shuffling groove, Remote Control drives along at peak-time pace. Purposeful yet subtle the 'heads down' vibe of the track sets things up perfectly for a tension filled and atmospheric breakdown.

Artist: Bobina Label: Maelstrom Records Genre: Trance (Progressive)

Russian trance superstar Bobina issues his superb debut album on UK trance major Maelstrom, previously home to the likes of Tiesto, Sander Van Doorn and Cosmic Gate. All tracks are highly worth checking out and reek of pure quality. Essential!

Artist: Gambas & Alvaro Label: Trak Music Genre: Trance (Electro, Euro, Tech House, Vocal)

Bumpy crossover beats from Gambas and Alvaro. Soaring side-chained synths lead the charge with this quirky and very well produced party piece from Austria. Big room electro tech house that'll fit into any performance.

Artist: Life In Streams Label: Subtraxx Recordings Genre: Trance (Progressive)

Miika Kuisma's Subtraxx Recordings return with their 31st release courtesy of Life In Streams. This is a slightly more progressive affair than the label's usual uplifting trance but this oozes quality from every musical oriface. One of the standout releases of 2008 so far.

Artist: SANTIAGO NINO Label: Neuroscience Deep Genre: Trance (Progressive)

Already pre-released on the Neuroscience WMC compilation and now available as a single + also featured on Airwave's Summer Euphoria compilation, it's fair to say this record has been fairly hyped and thankfully it lives right up to that. Emotive progressive music.

Artist: Mark Lynch Label: Camouflage Genre: Trance (Uplifting)

Camouflage are back with their 89th release courtesy of Mark Lynch, who turns in one of the label's biggest tracks to date! 'Paraglide' is so smooth it's as if someone has been over it with a Gillette. Highly polished and thoroughly recommended!

Artist: Jason Mac Layne Label: Bonzai Basics Genre: Trance (Tech Trance)

Bonzai take you back to basics with the launch of this new offshoot label and they serve up an absolute cracker with the first release! Sounding not unlike the work of Marcel Woods & Sander Van Doorn, this is banging tech-trance of the highest calibre.

Artist: Paul Harrison Label: Ocean Drive Records Genre: Trance (Uplifting)

Paul Harrison is the latest artist to be profiled by the up and coming Ocean Drive label and he impresses with this fantastic uplifting trancer. Bringing back memories of '99 this is pure hands-in-the-air material and sure to do the damage when dropped.

Artist: Leon Bolier Presents LWB Label: Captured Music Genre: Trance (Progressive, Uplifting)

Artist: Greg Downey Label: Discover Dark Genre: Trance (Tech Trance)

ANTHEM ALERT! Grade A by name and nature! The latest from Greg Downey is probably his darkest, dubbiest to date but still with that inherent ultra-large warhead aimed at the dancefloors. We've tested this on our office big system and it passes all of the rave tests. Recommended!
