Stellar banging trance [Original Mix] from the original Driftmoon members: Juraj Klička (current), David Sherlock (left Nov 2013) and Miikka Leinonen (left Apr 2016). First release on Solarstone's Pure Trance label back in January 2014 – successor of Solaris Recordings and DeepBlue Records.

01. Solarstone Retouch:

02. Original Mix:

Description:
Solarstone's Pure Trance movement has redefined the landscape of the trance scene since its conception in 2012; fueled by Solarstone's own groundbreaking 'Pure Mixes', critically acclaimed compilation album series and sell-out worldwide Pure Trance Events. This is his record label devoted to the sound of Pure Trance.

The debut release on the Pure Trance label is a prime cut from Solarstone's 'Pure Trance 2' compilation and has already featured on A State Of Trance #637. 'Howl At The Moon' is a multi-national co-production by the 3 Driftmoon members hailing from Slovenia, Scotland and Finland. Solarstone's 'Retouch' is an example of Pure Trance at it's finest. The track sweeps through crescendo after crescendo, with layer upon layer of beautiful cascading melodies. Solarstone adds his signature to the track, polishing, crafting and perfecting the production, adding that extra of 'Pure' finery taking it up to the next level. If you Like It Pure, you're going to love this.

For me this is as good as modern [post-2010] melodic trance gets. I think this is my favorite Driftmoon track.

Ugly synth in the original, just like Tuvan and so many others from the 2010s (another fine example is Orbion from Armin,ugh its so ugly and akward) Light steroid trance borderline edm big stadium trance. This style should be erased from trances history :p

This is all about the Solarstone remix for me.

That being said, my favorite version wasn't ever released (and probably won't be either). Solarstone made an edit of his remix for his Pure Trance V2 compilation back in the days, which is what I prefer. As far as I can tell, it's nothing but a change in key, but still sounds better imo :D
