Fresh from an inspiring journey to the enchanting city of Prague, Enlusion returns to JOOF Recordings with “Prague Afterglow” — a deep, hypnotic 9-minute odyssey crafted with vigilance to details and emotional weight. Drawing on the timeless influences of Oliver Prime and Vibrasphere, this track stands as a pinnacle of Enlusion’s signature sound: magical, evolving, and spiritually resonant.

From the very first moments, “Prague Afterglow” commits to full progression — zero copy-paste, no repeated sections, and a constant forward motion that mirrors the feeling of wandering through Prague’s mystical streets. The lead melody continuously morphs with subtle resonances and shifting harmonics, guiding the listener into unexplored dimensions. As the journey deepens, organic vocal chops gently emerge, adding a human, ethereal layer to the atmosphere, while gated pads weave through the mix with a warm, glowing presence.

This is Trance music in its purest, most artisanal form — a story told through sound, shaped by a city that touched the artist’s soul. “Prague Afterglow” isn’t just a track; it’s an experience meant to be absorbed, not simply heard.

clearly inspired by Basil stuff, nice one

but that clap feels too wet and doesn't fit the rest of the arrangement

 

[GeorD]

This is very promising. Love the textures and atmo work. It sounds immense! Ethereal/ heavenly with a touch of apocalyptic lurking around.

 

[Air_Water]

This is sounding great

 

[Freezer]

yup similar to Basil, but why not, we like it hypnotic Why the title? Have you been to Prague lately?

Not bad, I liked it. The Beatport sample seems slower and even sounds better than the SoundCloud preview

Loving this one!

I thought Enlusion had a good year, really liked a number of his track this year, but not feeling this one. Just too plasticky with that kick and sterlie with other percussive elements. Atmospheric elements feel very generic to me, and nothing memorable or interesting happening at all. What you hear at 1.30 is the same at 3min, then same at 5min, then same at 8min....

Well, the captions need to be rewritten LMAO I am going to be an asshole here for a guy who suppose to bring back trance to its glory days doesn't seem like they are making much of an impact at all. Both Elusion and JOOF are a bunch of hypocrite and so is Airwave as well. Just stop calling your music trance and just say you don't want to produce it like Airwave did by distancing himself.

Y u so angry that it feels personal? Of all the guys who puts out random garbage and call it trance these guys are at least waay closer to it.

 

[facade1984]

Right? We do this for a hobby but homeboy seems genuinely offended

Because I hate what the genre has become and I can't stand the hypocrisy. Sadly I don't have the knowledge or skills to know how producers made trance production in the past before 2004-2006.
Yes, there are YouTube videos but most of the producers don't want to pass along those skills because they consider it too old or not fashionable anymore and they can't make money off it. The addictive qualities that made trance amazing is also what's missing in these tracks. These people are being hypocrites by saying they are going to bring Trance back to its glory days but I have patiently waited for the past 16 years for that to happen and they have made zero impact to either persuade me or any of the listeners. The only quality trance I can find are in techno, Goa trance and some psychedelic trance but I want euphoric/hard and vocal and progressive trance even commercial trance to thrive like it used to in the past. Digital blonde is the only uplifting trance producers who makes amazing tracks.

did any of them really ever say that? the only person I know with ego fat enough to be on that mission is you

oh and that avena guy

This is not about ego dude. Don't put me in the same category as that moron. Yes, they did and I used to work with Airwave too and I have had long chats with him as well. If it was about ego then i wouldn't have openly mentioned that I don't have the skills or knowledge to make they used to make and it's not something you can find in a book as well or on the internet either. This skills or knowledge can only be learned through a person.

I like simple, calm tracks with monotonous melodies that don’t necessarily evolve throughout the entire track… This isn’t the worst work at least here, he doesn’t use those awful fart and screeching sounds common in techno. If those were present, I wouldn’t even bother listening. Overall, I agree with Progrez regarding this label, but on the other hand, this kind of sound has its fans what they call Deep Hypnotic Raw Trance, perhaps?

Even in that category i think it fails to hit the mark. if I want the deep hypnotic stuff then the old Mistique Music or Seven Senses - Southern Cros etc etc s come to mind and even someone like the late incolumis as well or old Solar fields productions or even scann tec. Where is the journey? I don't hear them at all.

sounds like an excuse no? trial and error works just as fine with enough passion and talent, there's no some sacred knowledge that's being held a secret really
