That's right...you may occasionally see me in these parts on Trancefix 😄

Airwave around this time was releasing some outstanding music.

The Original Mix I feel is something of a modern day masterpiece. Movie score like qualities, so powerful and emotional. A 12 minute journey, and music with actual soul. I always said I struggled in these years when putting his music into mixes as nothing else either side of Laurents work sounded anywhere near the same level...unless it was another Airwave track :D

Welcome to the post-2007 section mate! :D

I personally prefer his other works from the same time (Reus Calling and A Touch of Grace, for instance), but now that you post this, I can actually spot the quality of this track. It's film score trance, really.

It's not nowhere near his old style, which seemed more effortless and free-flowing (some of his most popular classics were created in less than a day), but you can hear how much time and effort this took him, resulting in something far more complex and a lot more mature, musically. It' actually a gorgeous track anyways.

Both mixes are also fine tracks.

I remember the day this was out. Such a beautiful gem...

No wonder Airwave is in my top 3 most production + quality producers along with M.I.K.E & Ferry Corsten.

Just been revisiting some of Airwave from this time frame, aged very nicely I think. Tigris & Euphrates was the epic one but this original and full terrace remix is great in its own right. Top stuff from 2016.
