[sszecret]

Released: 29 March 2010
Label: A State of Trance (ASOT) / Armada Music
Cat#: ASOT140

Promo:

The A State of Trance radioshow is up for its 450th episode. Five parties, spread over 2 weekends in 4 different countries will make this milestone a celebration to remember for a long time. Making it extra special, is the fact that theres an official theme thatll rock the speakers in Toronto, New York, Bratislava and Wroclaw: 450.

Armin van Buuren gave the honourable mission to please the ASOT fans to Sebastian Brandt. A mission in safe hands of the Swedish producer, whos put thousands of trance fans into a frenzy with his Serenade, Technology and So Cold. The same distinctive sound lets itself be captured on 450. 450 is a track that has everything essential to an everlasting theme: a big dose of energy, the right beats and an epic break with classical influences. And all that with the real Sebastian Brandt sound; characterized by a strong build-up, breakdown and pure trance influences.

Original Mix



Was under the impression that this had already been posted, but nope.

Years ago, I used to ping pong (not that one) between this and Status Excessu as my preferred ASOT anthem, but eventually settled on 450. I sometimes play Repercussion or Mana too, but this is by far my favorite Brandt release.

Wild that it's already been 15 years.

When it was still ‘trance’

OH MAN.

Now this was the definition of an anthem. Still goes strong to this day. Yet another great track from 2010 too.

 

[Altair]

I'm still partial to Status Excessu D as the best ASoT anthem, but this is still a gem of a track. I think this was my first exposure to both the ASoT label and Sebastian Brandt back in the day.

Proper trance, how i miss the sound of Sebastian Brandt. I think Mana just edges this for me personally.
