<span style="background-color: white; color: #979797; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Rank 1 have been in resurgent state of late, first redefining the term ‘epic’ with their 13 minute numeric odyssey ’13-11-11’, then wow-ing with the avant-garde sound-garden that was ‘Freudenrausch’. The press have been impressed (a Tune of the Month a-piece from dance publications DJ Mag & MIXMAG); the a-list DJ elite keener still, using the tracks to send rafters flying in all four corners of the globe. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Now the Dutch duo have done what some had given up hope that they’d ever do, delivering a new century, root-&-branch reworking of the track many see as their most recognisable hour…</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><a href="http://t.ymlp263.net/uewuyaaauhsseakaueanaeubyjj/click.php" style="font-family: inherit;" target="_blank">Pick Up Rank 1 - Airwave (21st Century Mix) here</a><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The track that started it all is back! A decade and a half since it first assailed clubs speakers, electrified radio waves and scaled charts, the tune that became near synonymous with the halcyon days of ID&T’s equally as legendary Trance Energy events returns.</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Debuting in 40 different international territories in its first year alone, it is perhaps the most under-remixed classic trancer of all time. If ‘Airwave’ is coming to you as one of your fondest of fond club memories, this remix takes the heart & essence of the Original version and warps it 15 years forward for a consummately next-gen rework. If it’s coming to you as a new proposition, well then we envy you – to be in your shoes right now!</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A release most cherished by Rank 1, the pairing of Piet Bervoets & Benno de Goeij have long held out on giving the nod to new third party remixes, acknowledging the profusion of bootlegs, and holding off from reworking the track themselves… At least until now!</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For the 15th anniversary the pair have finally given ‘Airwave’ its incredible 21th Century rephrase. Kicking off with its hallmark, deeply resonant LFO, modulating sub-riffs and acute and echoing timbale percussion, it begins the slow release soar of its mile-wide chords and pads. Taking the mainline from one century to the next, Rank 1 underpin the original lead with a strident toughened sub-sound, sending the riff up for days and finally bringing about a cataclysmic club-floor effect.</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Complexly produced with their trademark minutiae attention to every ratchet of the riff, flex of the FX trigger, kick of the drum and soar of the synth, ‘Airwave’ is poised to dominate another summer.</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>

last together untill the kick and rolling bass annihilate the peaceful nature
of the track and carry all the shattered sounds through the first part of the
track. The shock wave eventually stops at the breakdown where everything is
starting to build over from scratch in peaceful harmony. „Don't Forget To
Remember” to check for yourself what happens later.</span><span lang="PL"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="PL" style="font-family: inherit;">The
Polish dude Carlo Calabro, after his recent appearance on Marco V's In Charge
Recordings, takes the next step and releases a brand new track on Be Yourself
Music's High Contrast Recordings imprint. Paradoxically entitled ‘Loudest
Silence’ can be undoubtedly described as a meeting point of a few dance music
genres. It lies somewhere between trance, progressive house (talking about the
real one) and techno (a little bit of it inside as well).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="PL" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="PL">There's
really a lot happening inside. The Loudest Silence starts with a driving,
acid-alike arpeggio which is accompanied by an also driving but groovy bass.
When the first part's constant progression reaches its peak, it ends
unexpectedly to make room for more atmospheric, gentle tones. The plot that
follows the breakdown also offers something totally different than previous
chapters. We are not going to spoil the fun and let you check out the rest by
yourself.</span><span lang="PL"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Following his successful collaboration ‘Freudenrausch’ with the renowned <b>Rank 1 </b>on<b> High Contrast </b>in March, the global trance producer is back on the label<b> </b>to release his euphoric two track EP, and looks set to make serious waves around the world, further proving himself a force to be reckoned with.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Dennis Sheperd is a man in high demand, his productions <span style="color: black;">played by the trance elite the world over including <b>Tiësto</b>, <b>Paul Van Dyk</b>, and <b>Ferry Corsten</b> to name a few. His remix skills have been sought after by the likes of </span><b>Armin van Buuren</b>, <b>Gareth Emery</b> and <b>Above & Beyond</b>, and with the launch of his new record label, <b>‘A Tribute To Life’ </b>later this year, plus a second artist album also in the pipeline, the Berlin-based tastemaker has firmly secured his name within the upper echelons of top dance producers.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">The first track on the EP, ‘<b>We Are Who We Are’</b> sends the listener on a compelling journey of synth-heavy build ups delivering a mind-blowing experience once the bass drops and evolving into a skilfully layered, melodic masterpiece. <u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 22px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Starting off with an atmospheric instrumental, the second track <b>‘Sofia’</b> jumps straight in with a pounding and resonant drum bass, taken over by a punchy acid lead line to deliver a distinctive and powerful production. Inspired by Dennis’s time in Bulgaria, ‘Sofia’ is a tribute to his Bulgarian fans who he considers some of the best in the world! With the track named after the capital itself, Dennis returns to Sofia on<span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1337140590" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">17 May</span></span> for a backbreaking 7 hour set at the city’s well known <b>Cosmo Club</b>, which also follows an appearance at <b><span style="color: black;">A State Of Trance 600</span></b><span style="color: black;"> at <b>Arena Armeec</b>, alongside Armin van Buuren, Dash Berlin, and Ferry Corsten last year.<u></u><u></u></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Tipped to be yet another big release from the undeniably gifted producer, the <b>‘We Are Who We Are/Sofia’</b> EP is a mesmerising, hook laden paragon, which will – in no doubt – be tearing up trance dancefloors across the world.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

some months ago Bastian Salbart went on a musical adventure, and it looks like
it's not going to end just like that. Quite the opposite actually. It's getting
more and more interesting with every release! This brand new piece of music
shows us that the young Polish fella is capable of delivering and evolving his
sound.<o:p></o:p></span></span></em></div>

<div class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: justify;">
<em><span lang="PL"><span style="font-family: inherit;">„Krush”
is Bastian's next cutting edge release with live instruments inside. He
secretly teamed up with an electric guitarist to show us that such great result
can be achieved when classic and electronic oriented minds start working
together.<o:p></o:p></span></span></em></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><em><span lang="PL">The track itself is leaded by meaty synth, strong
enough to slash the air at any party, but yet smooth enough when listened to in
a cosy environment. Also the breakdown seems to be one of a kind. Electric
guitar riffs, vocal bits, the unexpected drop, which, like a sound of ticking
clock embelished with atmospheric strings, proclaims another approach of the
impact. Again, Bastian Salbart delivers a perfectly balanced tune, written
carefully with attention to detail. It's difficult to guess which way his sound
will travel, but one thing's for sure - it will be quality and outstanding.
Stay tuned for more.</span></em><span lang="PL"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Rank 1 & Dennis Sheperd Team Up 'Freudenrausch'

<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<span style="font-size: 16px;">Last year audio acrobats Rank 1 tore up electronic music's rulebook with their 13-minute epic '13.11.11'. 'Elements of Nature' meanwhile bagged awards aplenty, snagging a MIXMAG Tune of the Month and landing the Dutch duo with a #5 position on Trancefix's Tracks of the 2013 rundown.<br /><br />For Germany's Dennis Sheperd, the remixes of his biggest tune to date 'Fallen Angel' dropped on High Contrast Recordings in 2013 garnering huge support from the trance elite and following the success of his debut mix-comp & artist album 'A Tribute To Life'. Poised with the latter's 2014 follow-up, Dennis Sheperd is set to rock the year from start to finish. </span></div>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; width: 680px;"><tbody>

Lest you not be familiar, 'freude' equals 'joy', 'rausch' means 'noisy intoxication' and in the collective pursuit of club floor feelgood-ery, Piet, Benno & Dennis have created an electronic music cocktail never heard before!<br />
<br />
.............<br />
<br />
Put three men with a long history of doin' dance different in a studio together and the results were never going to be proverbial.<br />
<br />
On 'Freudenrausch' Rank 1 & Sheperd take two shots of electro and generous dashes of bassy squelch, before mixing in a long with trancfied sub-riffs and filtered techno sequences. Spilling boundless energy into its production, they hit the studio's 'blend' button<em>hard</em>! As the trio unleash classically cut house pianos and uplifting, thrill-filled synth exhilaration into their mix, 'joy' is the objective and as 'Freudenrausch' ascends to its pyroclastic, ecstatic conclusion that's exactly what it delivers!</td></tr>

Rank 1 & Dennis Sheperd Team Up 'Freudenrausch'

RANK 1 - 13.11.11

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-align: center; text-autospace: none;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Rank 1 singles are gems every bit as much through their scarcity
as their ability to send floors supernova. When the Dutch pairing of Benno de
Goeij & Piet Bervoets have something to say studio-side though, it's always
worth listening to. 2013 has already brought the thrilling sonic compulsion of
M.I.K.E. collaboration 'Elements of Life' and the
big-room-boom/title-says-it-all 'Floorlifter'.<br />
<br />
Now though prepare for one of the most extraordinary, atypical, riveting, downright
brilliant recordings you'll hear this year. '13.11.11' is its name… it's BPM,
runtime and its release date, all rolled into one. High concept, huh!?<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

‘13.11.11’ drops back, initiating a beautifully crafted Vangelis-esque analogue

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;">Described <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">by DJ Mag in their 9/10 review as having “<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">micro-mix-comp</i>”</b> properties, in its own time ‘13.11.11’ swirls
the atmosphere deep - minute by charismatic minute working its way towards its
next jaw-drop sequence. Around the 9<sup>th</sup> minute mark, Rank 1 instils a
savannah-like atmosphere to the track, enacted by its angelic indolent flute-led
riff. Once again though, with perfectly measured pace, they begin to draw the
euphoria back in. Raising the tension sky-high they gift ‘13.11.11’ its final
uplifting Gotcha moment!</span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"> <br />
