Progressive Trance at its finest, ladies and gentlemen.
The Digital Drift boys have done it again. What once started as an innocent collaboration between longtime pals Nitrous Oxide and Simon Gregory, worked so well that they ended up making a new alias for their conjoint releases. A common ground for both, the Digital Drift project has represented the solidification of a core and iconic sound in the Progressive Trance scene, finally addressed.
What I mean to say is, being this the nth track I come across produced by them as a duo, I’ve finally been able to find that Progressive Trance sound everyone loved some years ago, and that the industry suddenly left behind to replace it with a sort of Peak-Time Techno, and then Melodic Techno hybrid. Even Classic Trance came back before anyone dared mop the dust off ye ole reliable Prog Trance.
And I’m so glad Simon and Chris have not only revived this iconic sound but have also perfected it beyond limits. And how wouldn’t they? While Chris has been a veteran and pillar of Trance for close to 20 years, Simon has been at the very front of the genre for years, working closely with the guys at Mondo records, and landing Anjunabeats deals, among others.
‘Alone’
Digital Drift’s latest just came out today. ‘Alone’ just saw the light of day via FSOE Argento, and it’s carrying sizable momentum from the last weeks. Dan Stone, Argento label head, spun it a few weeks ago on his show, and after that came double support from Above & Beyond on their Group Therapy radioshow, back-to-back.
Dark and powerful, ‘Alone’ is a track that pairs the best of the energy Progressive is known for, with the melody and heartfelt emotion of Trance.
