Featured Trance Tracks

Artist: Alex M.O.R.P.H. Label: High Contrast Recordings Genre: Trance (Electro Trance, Tech Trance)

Hotly tipped and caned to death by the likes of Armin, PVD and Tiesto, this superb new banging electro/tech crossover cut from the legend that is Alex MORPH finally lands on download. Includes a more uplifting remix alongside Woody Van Eyden. Essential!

Artist: Mind X Label: Sirup Records Genre: Trance (Uplifting)

Artist: Getfar Label: Sirup Music Genre: Trance (Electro Trance, Euro)

Why this was never a massive hit in the UK will go down alongside 'who shot JFK?' and 'why is a boxing ring square?' as one of life's unanswered mysteries. A huge hit in Europe and America, Getfar's 'Shining Star' is a mighty electro anthem. Chris Reece toughens it up with this stunning remix.
