Above & Beyond - 1001 download free

Great review, I echo this sentiment also.A&B have given up on listening to their fans as they have landed themselves with a fan base who are generally lacking in historical knowledge (and respect) of Trance and EDM in general, they come from a commercial scene that goes against the original A&B mantra of "producing high quality Trance music".This track is ok, it's got some vague elements of yesteryear but it's hardly A&B returning to their roots; this is Progressive Trance 2.0 and a very average track in general lacking that cutting edge they used to be so well-known for.A.I is probably the perfect example of A&B post 2012; Electro-Trance with a hint of Prog House. These guys were pioneers of classical-based uplifting Trance, their discography has some absolute classics but this is long-gone unfortunately. Hope is not all lost folks; if you want well produced Trance then look away from anything on the Anjunabeats label. Artists like Daniel Kandi with his Always Alive Recordings has kept the uplifting scene and Anjuna-esque mantra 'Alive', there are many other labels to look into but this is your best start.1001: 2.5/5
