Skywell returns to Stories In Trance for our 89th release with the three track single Awakening.
First things first, we start with the Original. Swedish producer Skywell (Jonas Skyldeberg) made his production debut with his brilliant track Gothenburg (SIT #84) and then turned his hand to a remix with awesome results: his sublime remix of Grey Cloud (SIT #85). Now back with his second original Awakening, Jonas expertly uses the fine lead melody amidst some stunning layering and effects, which come together brilliantly in this creative and well polished tune. We won't tell you what this track should remind you of or what feelings it should evoke, as the listener it's up to you to make this track personal however that may be, but there is no doubt that it is a superb piece of trance.
Two excellent remixes back up the Original mix and the first comes from none other than Airborne Angel. Gustaf Westin is back on remix duties for his friend and compatriot Jonas after his remix of Gothenburg (SIT #84). As usual his amazing production skills are on full show as he crafts a unique interpretation of the lead melody into a remix that stands up there with the very best. Bespoke. Beautiful. Pure Brilliance. We expect nothing less from Airborne Angel. A must have for everyone who loves trance.
The final track on this release is the Vaali Remix. Russian producer Vaali (Arthur Valiev) made his production debut with his fabulous track My City (SIT #81) and after being inspired when hearing Jens Jakob's Euphorica he requested the opportunity to remix the track, the end result was the staggering remix that featured on Grey Cloud/Euphorica (SIT #85). Once again Vaali shows his undoubted talents with this immense remix; short, succinct yet well defined, using all the assets of the original infused with Vaali's trademark production quality all add up to a truly great interpretation.
With this release Stories In Trance shows once again why it is the most diverse and individual label in trance. Always driven by the ideals that we started out with and our ever keen attention to detail, we encourage freedom of expression from all involved in our projects. The end result is pure, undiluted creativity. Because of this, and above all, we are proud to put them out there.

SIT 88 Max Stealthy - It's A Matter Of Time.
Check out all the tracks on the album with this link:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJGMi1MzV44
Released on Monday 23rd December 2013.
Stories In Trance are truly proud to give to you SIT 88 by Max Stealthy with his debut album 'It's A Matter Of Time'.
After nearly four years, Stories In trance offer up our first artist album and it's from one of the most important and influential producers on our label- Poland's Max ‘Stealthy’ Szalko.
Max’s productions beautifully combine strong lead melodies with pace and power, but he has the ability to offer up a wide range of styles with trance, and this is perfectly demonstrated with the quality and diversity on this 10 track album. After making his debut on SIT in the autumn of 2011 with his sublime Charge EP (SIT #14) Max has produced many great originals and remixes and has played a definitive part in some of our most notable releases to date.
Titled 'It's A Matter Of Time' this reflects over 3 years in the making and features a selection of his best tracks from his previous releases as well as some new productions written especially for this album. In our opinion this album is one of the most impressive we have seen for some time, and feel that quality comes from the fact that all the previously released tracks have been featured on some very strong releases and the new tracks have been created purposely to sit alongside the finest of his previous work. There is no album filler tracks on 'It's A Matter Of Time' and we think that makes it one of the very best EDM artist albums in many a year.
Max has and continues to be one of the most significant producers on Stories In Trance and it is truly a pleasure to put out this fantastic album that features ten pieces of trance excellence.

SIT 87 Craig London - Drop Zone
SIT 87 Craig London - Drop Zone
Released on Monday 16th December 2013.
Stories In Trance are pleased to offer up SIT 87 by Craig London with the three track single Drop Zone.
As is now tradition, firstly we have the original mix. Craig's career to date has seen him make several impressive appearances with us with some fine remixes, most recently his fantastic version of Fly Away (SIT #86) which was preceded by his debut originals with the Double A-Sided Single Footprints and The Colour Of Gold. Once again Craig is on top form showcasing his vast talents, and this time he gives us a more energetic and powerful original. The excellent lead melody is backed up by driving mids and powerful bass- all the hallmarks of a big room stormer. Craig has had an excellent 2013 and in our opinion is one of the best new producers in the scene, so look out for plenty more from him coming soon.
Up second we have Max Stealthy's version. Max has been a key player on Stories In Trance for some years now, and has an extensive list of tracks and remixes with us, most recently his brilliant version of Ignite (SIT #82). Max has built himself a potent reputation with his consistent production prowess and once again he serves up a truly great track, expertly evolving the great lead melody, backed with fantastic effects, depth and driving mids. Max's production technique continues to go from strength to strength showing yet more innovation and imagination. A great remix to add to his fantastic discography.
The third and final part of Drop Zone comes from Dutchman Locus (Walter Lootens). Locus made a fantastic debut on Stories In Trance with his remix of White Poison (SIT #57) and followed that with his earth shattering version of Heavenly Delight (SIT #73). After a little breather, he returns in emphatic fashion with another fine remix: a short, concise rethink that is packed with energy and power, expertly using the lead to great effect. Locus really is an exciting and promising young producer who we have no doubt will bring lots more creativity to trance in the future.

SIT 86 Thunderwolf Featuring Elizabeth Tseng - Fly Away
Released on Monday 9th December 2013.
Stories In Trance proudly present SIT 86 by Thunderwolf Featuring Elizabeth Tseng with the three track single Fly Away.
As usual, first up is the original. Stories In Trance is committed to showcasing the very best trance from all over the globe and this time it's the fourth outing for Taiwanese newcomer Thunderwolf (Tseng Chih Young) and his third track featuring the vocals of his sister Elizabeth Tseng. Fly Away is an energetic and uplifting track that expertly uses the superb vocals to add a fantastic dimension to the piece. Fabulously crafted, this is another fine production from this highly talented artist.
The first of two remixes comes from Stories In Trance legend Derrick Meyer who brings his unique style to create this superb version. Being one of the USA's best uplifting trance producers, Derrick's back catalogue with us is vast and equally great with his last outing - his remix of Euphorica (SIT #78) - being a perfect illustration of his exceptional talent. This is Derrick’s first vocal project, but once again he delivers the goods with his usual production excellence. His unmistakable melodic dynamics and expertly polished layering (something ever present and always greatly impressive in Derrick's work) all amount to a brilliant and truly bespoke track.
Up third is Craig London's remix. Craig's career to date has seen him make several impressive appearances with us with some fine remixes, more recently his fantastic version of Ignite (SIT #82) which was followed by his debut original on Stories In Trance, the Double A-Sided Single Footprints and The Colour Of Gold (SIT #83). Once again Craig is on top form showcasing his vast talents, taking all the best bits from the original and combining that with his now trademark style, this is a remix that really hits the sweet spot. Craig has had an excellent 2013 and in our opinion is one of the best new producers in the EDM scene, so look out for plenty more from him coming soon.

SIT 85 Jens Jakob - Grey Cloud / Euphorica
Released on Monday 18th November 2013.
Stories In Trance proudly offer up SIT 85 by Jens Jakob with the three track single Grey Cloud / Euphorica.
Jens made his debut on SIT with his fantastic track Euphorica (SIT #78) and is back at his best again with Grey Cloud. Much like Euphorica this track has a great lead melody and plenty of energy, power and emotion. This is a real piece of uplifting trance gold and a truly standout track.
Up next we have the Skywell remix of Grey Cloud. Swedish producer Skywell made his production debut with his brilliant track Gothenburg (SIT #84) and turns his hand to a remix with awesome results. He expertly uses the lead melody with some stunning layering and effects which come together brilliantly in this creative and well polished remix. A superb track from a very talented new artist.
The final track on this release is the Vaali Intro Remix of Jens's first offering on Stories In Trance- Euphorica. Russian producer Vaali (Arthur Valiev) made his production debut with his fabulous track My City (SIT #81) and after being inspired when hearing Euphorica he requested the opportunity to remix the track. The end product is a beautiful, wonderful piece of trance: an immense interpretation of the original with production technique second to none. The intro alone is astounding and it all adds up to one of the most imaginative tracks of the year.
Stories In Trance aims to uncover the most talented and imaginative new producers and team up with some of the more established names in the scene to work together in evolving the sound. This release sticks firmly to our philosophy of showcasing a diverse range of sounds within trance and we hope you'll enjoy the variety of imagination and creativity on offer in this release.

SIT 84 Skywell - Gothenburg
SIT 84 Skywell - Gothenburg
Released on Monday 4th November 2013.
Stories In Trance are delighted to give to you SIT 84 by Skywell with the three track single Gothenburg.
It's time for another debut from a very promising new producer, Swedish artist Skywell (AKA Jonas Skyldeberg). Jonas is friends with Stories In Trance hero and fellow Swede Airborne Angel (Gustaf Westin) who recommended him to join us at SIT. His first production named in honour of his home city Gothenburg is one for him to be proud of. Superb production techniques fitting of a far more experienced producer are in evidence from start to finish in this energetic and powerful big room trancer which is highlighted by the truly fantastic lead melody. Jonas has undoubted talent and this track is a really impressive piece of work, look out for plenty more from him on Stories In Trance very soon.
Two excellent remixes back up the original mix and the first comes from none other than Airborne Angel. This time he is back on remix duties after his most recent of many originals with us, Star (SIT #68). It's hard to know how to describe yet another stunning track from Sweden's finest as he has gone all out for his friend’s debut release. As usual his amazing production skills are on full show as he crafts a unique interpretation of the lead melody into a remix that stands up there with the very best. A must have for everyone who loves trance.
The final part of this fabulous release comes from SIT's own Triumvirate with their remix. This follows their most recent offering, the immense rethink of The Jewel That Was Ours (SIT #70) and once again they showcase all that is great about trance. After hours of playing around with the lead melody and the other parts of the remix pack they have come up with a truly bespoke remix made on equipment befitting a pop star. Plenty of creativity and years of trance listening experience aided by our priceless sound engineer and all around musical genius Dan Garton's expertise all add up to a piece of music we are mighty proud of. There are so many component parts of this track it's impossible to pick out the main ones, it's best just to say that the track is engaging from the first second to the last, ever evolving, surprising and encompassing all the best bits of trance; put that all together and you get something that must be heard by any and all trance enthusiasts.
In summation Gothenburg is a package that can rival any trance release from the digital age that perfectly illustrates the vast, diverse and superbly defined sounds that SIT endeavour to promote.

SIT 81 Vaali - My City.

Here we have the 81st release on Stories In Trance in the shape of this excellent debut by Vaali with the three track single My City.

A fantastic introduction to the scene by a very talented young artist.
The first of the two remixes comes from Vadim Zvegintsev & Aleksander Oholov under their more familiar Sanglare guise, hot off the back of their last original track UP! under their new Invision alias which was the headline track on the Triptych EP (SIT #76). Once again they show why they're held in such high regard with us at SIT with a truly stunning remix using the fine lead melody set against deep, rich mids and bass. These guys really know how to produce big room trance! A standout track that is sure to be a big hit with DJ's and trance fans alike.
The final track on this release is from Bionique (Aleksandr Voloshin) with his first solo project for us which follows his superb debut release on Stories In Trance alongside Solarnight with Heavenly Delight (SIT #73). He gives us a perfect example of his abilities with this fabulous remix; the great lead melody is backed up with an accomplished production flavour which combined with the subtle layering make this terrific track from a very promising producer.
Stories In Trance aims to uncover the most talented and imaginative new producers and team up with some of the more established names in the scene to work together in evolving the sound. This release sticks firmly to our philosophy of showcasing a diverse range of sounds within trance and we hope you'll enjoy the variety of imagination and creativity on offer in this release.

SIT 80 Cosmic Doors - White Muse
SIT 80 Cosmic Doors - White Muse
Released on Monday 30th September 2013.
Stories In Trance continues to showcase the very best that trance has to offer, and here we proudly present our 80th release, this time brought to us by Cosmic Doors with the three track single White Muse.
As is customary, we start with the Original. Cosmic Doors - Italians Alexander One (Petrone Carmelo) and Davide Battista (Gabriele Stefanini)- make their long awaited follow up to their first original with us, the unforgettable Oblique (SIT #33). They have made several outstanding appearances for Stories In Trance, most recently their brilliant remix of Thunderwolf’s We Love Trance (SIT #77). Once again they are on top form serving up this superb track. Power, pace and energy added to a big room lead come together in a production of the highest quality. Nothing less than brilliant; as one would expect from such a talented duo.
The first remix comes from Frenchman Jonathan Araldi under his now familiar French Skies alias. After his debut on Stories In Trance in the shape of The Wings Of A Dream (SIT #58) he has contributed several fine remixes, the most recent being his two contrasting versions of Thunderwolf’s This Is Our Life (SIT #75). This powerful adaptation features the subtly tweaked lead melody whilst expertly weaving in additional aspects from the original’s texture to create a pure, energetic interpretation with a feel of its own. This is a perfect illustration of what to expect from French Skies and why we are delighted to continue our association with him on Stories In Trance.
The final version comes from Thunderwolf with his first official remix. Taiwanese newcomer Thunderwolf (Tseng Chih Young) recently made his bow on SIT with three immense originals, the most recent of those been the seminal China Spring (SIT #79). This time he turns his talents toward a remix and the outcome is impressive. Excellent layering, fantastic production techniques and a creative use of the lead melody all make this a memorable and standout production. Look out for plenty more from this very exciting producer on Stories In Trance in the future.

SIT 78 Jens Jakob - Euphorica
Released on Monday 9th September 2013.
Stories In Trance present SIT 78 by Jens Jakob with the three track single Euphorica.
Jens Jakob makes his debut with us but to date has an extensive production career spanning tracks and remixes on labels such as Beyond Recordings, Undervise, Dirt, Lies & Audio Recordings, TFB, Muziek Colours, Mixtunes, Tohoku Recordings, OSS, Spaced Out Recordings and Nu Communicate. Jens gives us a truly fine track with a brilliant lead melody, backed up with powerful and energetic mids and potent low end drive. A fantastic slice of pure trance that takes its place alongside some of the best of 2013 to date.
The first remix comes from Stories In Trance legend Derrick Meyer who brings his distinct style to craft this superb version. Being one of the USA's best uplifting trance producers, Derrick's back catalogue with us is vast and equally great with his last remix of Heavenly Delight (SIT #73) being a perfect illustration of his exceptional talent. Once again he delivers the goods adding his usual production excellence to the unmistakable melodic dynamics and expertly polished layering - something ever present and always greatly impressive in Derrick's work, which all amount to a brilliant and truly bespoke track.
The third version comes in the shape of another debut and it's with great pride we are pleased to offer Michele Cecchi's remix. We have been big fans of Michele's work for some time so we were delighted to get him on board with us. His production career to date spans appearances on labels Trance All Stars, Bonzai, Nile Tunes Recordings, Linger, Diverted and his longstanding involvement with the Neuroscience and E Musica stable. With this awesome remix he shows why he is so highly regarded within the trance scene. Great use of the lead backed up with all the production class you would expect from a producer of this pedigree. An immense remix and the perfect way to round out another release we at Stories In Trance are proud to offer up.

SIT 75 Thunderwolf Featuring Elizabeth Tseng - This Is Our Life
Released on Monday 29th July 2013.
Stories In Trance is proud to present our 75th release; we give you Thunderwolf featuring Elizabeth Tseng with the four track single This Is Our Life.
As usual, first we offer up the original. Stories In Trance is committed to showcasing the very best trance from all over the globe, and this time we unearth a gem in the shape of Taiwanese newcomer Thunderwolf (Tseng Chih Young). And it's a family affair, with his extremely talented sister Elizabeth Tseng on vocals: together they give us what is to be one of the best tracks of the year, the fantastic This Is Our Life. Excellent layering, a brilliant lead melody backed up with a warm feel and flavour all perfectly complimented by the beautifully stunning vocals, this track can stand up there with the very best vocal tracks from the last few years. This Is Our Life is an absolute must have for all trance fans and DJ's alike. Look out for plenty more from this very exciting producer on SIT in the coming weeks and months.
The first remix comes from Sweden's Ico (John Eriksson). His excellent early productions brought him to our attention last year so we were delighted to get him on board with his first remix for Stories In Trance, the superlative reinterpretation of Triumvirate's The Persistence Of Memory (SIT #60) and he backed that up with his truly fantastic remix of spArk's Moments (SIT #66). Ico delivers an energetic, uplifting and emotional trancer with which he sublimely weaves the beautiful vocals into an all round uplifting powerhouse of a track. We feel Ico is certainly one of trance's best up and coming producers so keep a close eye on his future creations.
The third and fourth adaptations come from Frenchman Jonathan Araldi under his now familiar French Skies alias. After his debut on Stories In Trance in the shape of The Wings Of A Dream (SIT #58) he then followed this with his first remix for us, delivering a fantastic reinterpretation of Triumvirate's epic The Persistence Of Memory (SIT#60), his two remixes of David Surok's Avalon (SIT #62) and most recently his remix of Airborne Angel's Star (SIT #68). Firstly we have his remix version, and this powerful track cuts straight to the chase. Featuring the subtly tweaked lead melody whilst expertly weaving additional aspects from the original including the amazing vocals into the mix, Jonathan creates a pure, energetic interpretation. Then we have his Progressive remix, taking this version down a different route focusing more on the vocal and melodic elements of the track. Two standout remixes that are a must have addition to any uplifting/progressive set or mix. This is a perfect illustration of what to expect from French Skies and why we are delighted to continue showcasing him on Stories In Trance.

Welcome to the 74th release on Stories In Trance, and this time out we give you Simza with the three track single Ann.
Ukrainian newcomer Simza (Leonid Prodanov) is just starting out in his production career and with Ann he makes a fine entrance onto the scene. A superb and engaging track from the very start with an infectious lead that is backed with defined yet subtle mids creating a deliciously rich feel, this is a standout piece of proglifting trance. A sure fire hit with any DJ or trance fan alike.
The first remix comes from Englishman Craig London. Craig's career to date has seen him make an immense arrival on the scene in the shape of his original The Traveler on Where Music Lives Digital which brought him to our attention, so we were delighted when we got him on board with us with his epic remix of Hammer (SIT #63).

Craig perfectly shows his undoubted talents with this remix and why we should all keep an eye on this very promising producer in the future.
Up second we have Max Stealthy's version. Max has an extensive list of tracks and remixes with us, most recently his stunning remix of Sakiva's Hammer (The Remixes) (SIT #69) and his double A-Sided single Flyin Red / Time To Cry (SIT #67). Once again he serves up a truly brilliant track but this time in a beautifully concentrated little package, expertly crafted with a great lead melody backed with fantastic effects, depth and mids. Max's production technique continues to go from strength to strength showing yet more innovation and imagination with this 'Mini' remix.

Max has an extensive list of tracks and remixes with us, most recently his stunning remix of Sakiva's Hammer (The Remixes) (SIT #69) and his double A-Sided single Flyin Red / Time To Cry (SIT #67). Once again he serves up a truly brilliant track but this time in a beautifully concentrated little package, expertly crafted with a great lead melody backed with fantastic effects, depth and mids. Max's production technique continues to go from strength to strength showing yet more innovation and imagination with this 'Mini' remix. What this lacks in length it makes up for in pure excellence; a great remix to add to his fantastic discography.

SIT 71 David Surok - Breeze/Tornado
Released on Monday 1st July 2013.
This is the 71st release on Stories In Trance. We proudly present David Surok with the double A-Side Breeze / Tornado.
David Surok made an immediate impression with his first ever release Sunset / Sunrise (SIT #47) in November 2012.

Yet more fantastic productions from a very exciting new producer, and two fine further additions to his impressive catalogue of work.
The first of the two remixes comes from Konstantin Svilev with his version of Breeze. Konstantin made his debut for Stories In Trance on our Endeavour EP (SIT #51) with City and backed that up with his remixes of Four Points' Bridgestone (SIT #52), Lev Rubel's Share Your Moment (SIT #61) and a brilliant remix of Sakiva's Hammer (SIT #69).

Released on Monday 24th June 2013.
Stories In Trance are delighted to present SIT 70 by Konstantin Svilev with the five track double A-sided single The Jewel That Was Ours / Colours.
Up first is the original mix of The Jewel That Was Ours. Konstantin made his debut for Stories In Trance on our Endeavour EP (SIT #51) with City and backed that up with his remixes of Four Points' Bridgestone (SIT #52), Lev Rubel's Share Your Moment (SIT #61) and Sakiva's Hammer (SIT #69) in addition to his first solo release - Exit (SIT #56). He is at his best again with this energetic and ever progressing original. A great lead is backed with fantastic atmosphere, excellent mids and subtle yet unmistakable percussion all combining beautifully into this wonderful track. Undoubtedly inspired by the Belgian trance sound of the late 90's and early 2000's, be sure to check out more of Konstantin's work with us in 2013.
Secondly we have the Triumvirate Recut.

Gripping from second one until the very end with an abundance of pace, power, energy, emotion and soul, this can stand up there with the best. A perfect addition to any set or mix and without a doubt a real stand out piece of work.
Next up we have David Surok's remix. David is building an impressive catalogue of tracks and remixes with us after his debut in the autumn of 2012. His excellent fourth original Avalon (SIT #62) was his most recent outing with us and he is back on remixing duties again in fine style. Expertly using parts of the original with his now trademark percussion and layering, combined with the always evident purpose and energy this is yet another indication of why we hold David in the regard we do at Stories In Trance. Another fine piece of work from a really exciting young producer.
Konstantin's second original on this double A-side is Colours. This track is an excellent combination of subtlety and energy. Potent atmospheric touches are expertly backed up with his now trademark percussive elements and the powerful and techy lead. When a producer of real talent can infuse all these elements as well as Konstantin demonstrates in Colours it surely adds up to yet another winning package.
The final part of this quintet comes in the shape of another debut on Stories In Trance, this time from upcoming Italian producer Frank Dattilo. To date, Frank has made appearances on Addicted2Bass and if he continues to show the promise he displays in this remix he will go a long way in the scene.

SIT 66 spArk Featuring Kirsty Richardson - Moments
SIT 66 spArk Featuring Kirsty Richardson - Moments
Released on Monday 13th May 2013.
Stories In Trance proudly present SIT 66 and our very first vocal track. We give you spArk featuring Kirsty Richardson with the fantastic four track single Moments.
spArk has become a major contributor to Stories In Trance and made a fine debut with his original track Clouds Come (SIT #17) in January 2012. Proving that was no fluke he followed with his euphoric retake on Max Stealthy's Arrinera (SIT #25), setting the standard high for his second original My Freedom (SIT #37) which exceeded expectation. His most recent remix was an excellent version of White Motion's Come Inside (SIT #54) and then backed that up with the superb and diverse four track Lost In You EP (SIT #59). This time he gives us Moments, aided with the beautiful vocals of Kirsty Richardson this perfectly illustrates all spArk's undoubted talents. With elements of both his uplifting and progressive styles, this is pure magic, warm, delicate, beautiful, captivating and always enchanting - exactly what vocal trance should be. Without doubt a massive release for 2013.
The first remix comes from a duo who are no strangers to Stories In Trance, but once again return under their new alias - Cosmic Doors - though you might know them better as BB Sound/Alexander One & Davide Battista. Italians Alexander One (Petrone Carmelo) and Davide Battista (Gabriele Stefanini) have made several outstanding appearances for Stories In Trance, including brilliant reinterpretations of Max Stealthy's Arrinera (SIT #25), White Motion's Solis (SIT #28), Yaven's Zeal (SIT #38), French Skies' The Wings Of A Dream (SIT #58) and Lev Rubel's Share Your Moment (SIT #61) as well as their first original for us under their BB Sound alias with the seminal Oblique (SIT #33). Once again they are on top form adding their own flavour to the original and taking it down a more uplifting route while expertly using the vocals to great effect. Power, pace and energy are in abundance, a remix of the highest quality.
The second remix is from Cosmic Doors again but this time presented as the Alexander One & Davide Battista club remix. Focusing on more of the vocal elements of the track they take it down a more progressive route, with excellent flow and superb production techniques. With their two remixes here they cover all the bases, offering up everything that's great about vocal trance.
The final remix comes from Sweden's Ico (John Eriksson). With tracks and remixes so far on labels such as Diverted, D Max and Nile Tunes, his excellent work brought him to our attention last year so we were delighted to get him on board with his first remix for Stories In Trance, the superlative reinterpretation of Triumvirate's The Persistence Of Memory (SIT #60) and he has backed that up here with another stormer. Ico delivers an energetic, uplifting and emotional trancer with which he sublimely weaves the beautiful vocals into an all round uplifting powerhouse of a track. We feel Ico is certainly one of trance's best up and coming producers so keep a close eye on his future creations.

Perfectly using all the best bits of the original with his usual fantastic production technique, once again this is a stunning remix and a brilliant addition to his ever impressive catalogue of tracks and remixes. An absolute must have in any set or mix.

SIT 61 Lev Rubel - Share Your Moment
SIT 61 Lev Rubel - Share Your Moment
Released on Monday 8th April 2013.
Stories In Trance is happy to give you our 61st release, this time by Lev Rubel with Share Your Moment. The three track single includes the original, Cosmic Doors and Konstantin Svilev remixes.
Up first we have the original. Lev made his production debut for Stories In Trance with Insomnia as featured on the Tibbs EP (SIT #44) in October 2012 then backed that up with Fairyland (SIT #53) and fantastic remixes of Ethereal (SIT #49), Bridgestone (SIT #52) and Exit (SIT #56). He once more proves his undoubted talent with warm and delicate backing to the emphatic lead, a delightful flow and feel added to the excellent production technique making this a track to savour. Lev is a producer who continues to be widely influential on Stories In Trance.
The first remix comes from a duo who are no strangers to Stories In Trance, but under a new alias - Cosmic Doors - who you might know better as BB Sound/Alexander One & Davide Battista. Italians Alexander One (Petrone Carmelo) and Davide Battista (Gabriele Stefanini) have made several outstanding appearances for Stories In Trance, including brilliant reinterpretations of Max Stealthy's Arrinera (SIT #25), White Motion's Solis (SIT #28), Yaven's Zeal (SIT #38) and most recently French Skies' The Wings Of A Dream (SIT #58) as well as their first original for us under their BB Sound alias with the seminal Oblique (SIT #33). Once again they are on top form adding their own flavour to the original and taking it down a more uplifting route. Power, pace and energy are in abundance, a remix of the highest quality.
The third remix comes from Konstantin Svilev. Konstantin made his debut for Stories In Trance on our Endeavour EP (SIT #51) with City and backed that up with his remix of Four Points' Bridgestone (SIT #52), then his first solo release with Exit (SIT #56). He is at his best again with this energetic and ever progressing rework of the original. Undoubtedly inspired by the Belgian trance sound of the late 90's and early 2000's, be sure to check out more of Konstantin's work with us in 2013. Another one of our discoveries we are happy to showcase on Stories In Trance.

SIT 60 Garton & Carter Present Triumvirate - The Persistence Of Memory
Garton & Carter Present Triumvirate - The Persistence Of Memory
Released on Monday 1st April 2013.
Stories In Trance is extremely proud to present release number 60 - Garton & Carter Present Triumvirate with The Persistence Of Memory. The four track single includes the original 1931 mix, Bismark, Ico and French Skies remixes.
First up is the 1931 Mix. After many years of buying, listening and releasing trance through our label and following our production debut with the rework of David Surok's Sunset (SIT #47), the collective talents of us at Stories In Trance decided to create this bespoke track working under the moniker of Triumvirate. Inspired by the older structure and style of trance, which was the reason we were drawn to trance music in the late 90's early 2000's, we offer up something reminiscent of the good old days. Using state of the art studio equipment we have produced an old school power trancer. The beautifully crafted intro leads into the deep rich bass line and the constantly evolving and changing lead melody backed with sublime layering and a mesmeric break culminates powerfully into something special. This is one for fans of everything that trance once was to savour.
The first remix comes from Italian legend Bismark. Marco Bisegna was a key part in defining the legacy that was the massive Italian label BXR, along with Mauro Picotto, Gianfranco Bortolotti, Mario Piu and several others. The BXR philosophy is one that we are indebted to, as we emulate its eclectic range of productions and believe in strength through diverse releases. So it is an honour to have Bismark on Stories In Trance. He made his debut for us with his remix of Rominica (SIT #15) and backed that up alongside his sound engineering wizard Andrea Tamashi, and Marco Angelici to give us Markus with Smoke Of Glory (SIT #55). This time Bismark delivers something more associated with his BXR days, with production once again second to none, he uses one of the many layers of the original to perfection; a powerful and aggressive bass backed with truly outstanding mids and fantastic layering, this is in a word 'AWESOME'.
The second remix comes from Sweden's Ico (John Eriksson) with his Memorizing remix. With tracks and remixes so far on labels such as Diverted, D Max and Nile Tunes, his excellent work brought him to our attention last year so we are delighted to get him on board with this remix. Ico delivers an energetic, uplifting and emotional trancer. We feel Ico is certainly one of trance's best up and coming producers so keep a close eye on his future creations.
The final part of this four piece puzzle comes from French Skies. He has been honing his production and remixing skills on labels such as Crystal Source, TFB, Club Nation, Pulsar, Tellurium, Mycore, Linger, Amplified Digital, Restate and 1103 Music and is fast becoming one of trance's most promising producers. After his debut on Stories In Trance in the shape of The Wings Of A Dream (SIT #58) he turns his hand to a remix for us and again delivers with what is fast becoming his signature style. Comprising of a great lead melody whilst subtly and expertly weaving aspects from the original into the mix, backed with stunning atmospheric touches, this is a perfect illustration of what to expect from French Skies and why we are delighted to continue showcasing him on Stories In Trance. All in all we couldn't be happier with this release, with an overall quality far too seldom seen these days.
Stories In Trance aims to uncover the most talented and imaginative new producers and team up with some of the more established names in the scene to work together in evolving the sound. This release sticks firmly to our philosophy of showcasing a diverse range of sounds within trance and we hope you'll enjoy the variety of imagination and creativity on offer in this release.

Stories In Trance is extremely proud to present release number 60 - Garton & Carter Present Triumvirate with The Persistence Of Memory. The four track single includes the original 1931 mix, Bismark, Ico and French Skies remixes.
First up is the 1931 Mix. After many years of buying, listening and releasing trance through our label and following our production debut with the rework of David Surok's Sunset (SIT #47), the collective talents of us at Stories In Trance decided to create this bespoke track working under the moniker of Triumvirate. Inspired by the older structure and style of trance, which was the reason we were drawn to trance music in the late 90's early 2000's, we offer up something reminiscent of the good old days. Using state of the art studio equipment we have produced an old school power trancer. The beautifully crafted intro leads into the deep rich bass line and the constantly evolving and changing lead melody backed with sublime layering and a mesmeric break culminates powerfully into something special. This is one for fans of everything that trance once was to savour.
The first remix comes from Italian legend Bismark. Marco Bisegna was a key part in defining the legacy that was the massive Italian label BXR, along with Mauro Picotto, Gianfranco Bortolotti, Mario Piu and several others. The BXR philosophy is one that we are indebted to, as we emulate its eclectic range of productions and believe in strength through diverse releases. So it is an honour to have Bismark on Stories In Trance. He made his debut for us with his remix of Rominica (SIT #15) and backed that up alongside his sound engineering wizard Andrea Tamashi, and Marco Angelici to give us Markus with Smoke Of Glory (SIT #55). This time Bismark delivers something more associated with his BXR days, with production once again second to none, he uses one of the many layers of the original to perfection; a powerful and aggressive bass backed with truly outstanding mids and fantastic layering, this is in a word 'AWESOME'.
The second remix comes from Sweden's Ico (John Eriksson) with his Memorizing remix. With tracks and remixes so far on labels such as Diverted, D Max and Nile Tunes, his excellent work brought him to our attention last year so we are delighted to get him on board with this remix. Ico delivers an energetic, uplifting and emotional trancer. We feel Ico is certainly one of trance's best up and coming producers so keep a close eye on his future creations.
