Ok, this one is the only ID from Rich’s guestmix on Group Therapy… It’s definitely his work (not from upcoming „innermost” album), you can feel it easily ✌️

My theory: it will be his single to celebrate Anjunabeats’ anniversary, maybe even a collab (but I have no idea whose else’s sound I could hear) :)

Next 892NOW with Obie Fernandez? 🤔 Melody has a little bit of Anjuna’s vibe, so maybe Darren Tate again or… maybe even Above & Beyond themselves (my dreams only 😜)? Time will tell soon :)

EDIT (17.10): Mystery solved ;)

Nice, could really be a collab with Darren Tate or maybe Obie? Time will tell :)
It has a bit of similar feel like his track Motif, or mabye even Sovereign. I like those two a lot!

I think it won't be Darren Tate, as the BPM is too high for that. Also not 892NOW, as the energy level is not that enough for that I think.

If it will be an Anjunabeats release, I guess it will be a collab with.. SØNIN?

Nice, so basically this is follow up to Motif and Sovereign as i speculated :)

Wonder if these 24bits are actual 24bit from the workflow or just upsampled masters.

As wrote for the comments for Pure Trance China, this track seems to be a mix of multiple Solarstone tracks these years, Sovereign, Hope, shivelight.. And takes them to a more dancefloor BPM and energy level.

Like a conclusion of these innermost album making years.

ah yeah finally we're able to enjoy that sloppy mess of numerous clashing elements with shitload of reverb in the astonishing 24 bit depth quality, this is what the world's been missing

I have no issues with the 8-bit inspirations, but what the hell is going on with the layering/mastering? Everything feels like it's coming through a muffler. Haven't heard a song this messy in a long time.

Afraid of the mix/master, given previous comments. But listening from my phone, I’m wanting to come back later for this. Sounds pretty fun and fresh!

Not your typical Solarstone. Nice one?

Actually reminded me of collab era with Ottaviani (PUREnrg) and what they'd sound like if Rich wanted to showcase solo project with similar vibes.
