Atlantis - Voyager II (Activa Remix) [Borderline]

[trancedanne]

The original track is one of the best tracks from 1999, this remix doesn't really add much new but fucking hell its good. Might as well end up being tune of the year for me

Its indeed very good. to be honest Im not too familiar with the original, but definitely liking this version a lot

Another amazing work by Activa. The original is still unbeatable, but this one is great too.

I've come to expect this from Activa, so I don't mind it. It's produced well and done tastefully, albeit too safely for my taste; there's no creativity or soul. Just a tune, a touch up on a classic, and a decent one at that. I can respect that.

And by far, in my book, there were much much better tracks in '99. The original, though still great, had a high remix potential, especially in '99.

Activa is unstoppable. Brilliant remix. This is how a classic should be treated.

 

[Hensmon]

I don't think I ever heard the original you know. So coming in fresh I love it!

 

[HTY]

Brilliant remix

Is Voyager II better than Fiji though?

Definetly! The original version is a pretty boring track. The version that everyone played was the Lange remix

 

[Hoahoa]

Activa seems to be the only producer in the scene capable of taking classics and giving them modern updates which sound good.

 

[Exodom]

Liking this

I'll only judge his ability to make a classic sound, lets give this one 6.5 M.I.K.Es out of 10, not bad. He should use some of what Astral Projection are using to bring that sound to life more

Not a big fan of the melodic ideas in the original track, so this rework doesn't do much for me. It's very well produced and pleasant on the ears though.

I agree that Activa's playing it really safe on most of the remixes and even originals, but it's his thing: clean, somewhat sterilised trance yet nevertheless very pleasant to the ear and give you that sort of warm feeling inside.

sterilised trance

we should declare this as a new trance subgenre! lol
