Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Stories In Trance, and as we enter double figures we present to you the second release by Russian producer Max Fishler with Evia. Another imaginative package on offer here, it is tracks like this that perfectly illustrate the strength and consistency of our artists and their productions that Stories In Trance are proud to showcase. On the back of The Skyshard and his superb remix of Miguel Angel Castellini's Shining In Warm Up, Max Fishler continues to show why he is highly regarded in the trance scene right now. As he continues to build upon a definitive and powerful sound he has created for himself, what he creates next is no less than outstanding, as Evia combines a simple yet infectious lead melody infused with rich mids and a powerful deep bassline, dynamically structured to really build up the excitement until and beyond the epic post break. Big room trance that is sure to fill any club floor. As for the remixes this time, we get two very contrasting takes on the original, first up being one of Pakistan's finest new trance artists, DJ Faisi (Faisal Maqbool). He takes the track down a more uplifting route, but allows the lead melody to be flooded with beautiful free flowing effects and builds around them to keep the tune evolving, delivering a truly creative and masterful take on the original. Look out for more coming soon from DJ Faisi on Stories In Trance. The other side of the remix offerings comes from DJ Michael Hadson, who like Max, hails from Moscow, Russia. DJ Hadson's fine interpretation sees the original template given a more progressive feel, with subtle interchanging layers and some beautiful atmospheric effects creating a very dark yet potent version. And if this wasn't already enough from this release, in addition we offer a bonus track from Max Fishler, with Epicentrum. Another great example of Max's ability to be inventive whilst sticking to the core principles of his productions. The release sticks firmly to our philosophy of not only showcasing a diverse range of sounds within trance, but also offering balanced releases by seeking out those that can interpret the original in a different way. The aim of our label is to uncover the most talented and imaginative new producers and team up with some of the more established names in the scene to work together in evolving the sound. We are really excited about our continued progression, and hope there is something within our tenth release that is to your liking! Kind regards and happy days!
