Just to give a little update on what I have been doing...

I think the weather is getting better here, so we will probably start shooting the music video of my new single “Human Motion” in the next two weeks. Everything is almost set and ready, just waiting for some better temperatures!

In the meantime I have produced a new track – incredibly fast this time – I just finished the mixing and I got it back from the mastering studio this week itself. It’s very different from what I usually do, this time I wanted to experiment a little outside of trance…  Let’s see how it will work!

Also my remix of Balearic People together with Vincent Licata on Beyond Recordings is now in stores if you want to grab it! It has gotten some nice support lately, thanks guys!

In the last weeks of December I was working – along with Vincent Licata – on our remix for Mike Kharlan – Balearic People. The starting was a bit difficult, time for us to find the right workflow...

Vincent started the first draft on which I added my own changes, finally after a bit of experiment, the track went back and forth and so on until the final version… I have to say this collaboration was really interesting as it made me try new things, and experiment with new softwares/plugins!

If you want to hear the final result, our remix is now out on the label Beyond Recordings – as a part of the “Gold Remixes Vol 1” compilation. You check the links below for purchase and audio streaming.

It’s quite rare when a song gets you hooked that you just can’t stop listening to it, especially in those recent years – when we are constantly served with “empty” and soulless tracks (however polished and engineered to perfection).

Difficult to find that “raw gem”, that particular track which will stand out from the rest – and make you feel something inside…

Well I did find one! Yesterday I was talking to my long-time friend Gilles Munten and was checking his tracks on Soundcloud; it’s how I discovered “Late December” from his project “Not For Sale” – and I have been (literally) raping the play button since then!

This track is all I like; it has this really “authentic” feeling - melancholic, simple and emotional. I wouldn't know exactly what genre it belongs to (some sort of melodic techno-electro) but it doesn’t really matter, this track is taking me somewhere.

The only negative point is the length, 2 minutes and 42 seconds is really TOO SHORT for such an awesome track... I would really see myself tripping on a longer version of this...

Just to give a little update on what I have been doing...

Those last weeks we have been working mostly on the preparation on my new release “Human Motion”. It’s a track I started working on in 2010, with a vocal recorded while I was in India – but I only finished it this January! We have been looking for a remixer and preparing the music video.

We have now finished auditioning models and fixed the locations of the shooting; but with the recent drop in temperature we chose to delay the shooting of a few weeks as it’s between -8°/+2°C here in the day, and shooting outside in those conditions would really be not comfortable for the model and for us as well.

Besides the new track, we have now installed the new comment system on the site – so you can finally join the discussion and let me know what you think!!!
